Hi MF'ers-

Purchased my 08 30 days ago and saw all the posts for Obsessive Detail no rinse Car Wash.  thought it sounded too good to be true, I broke down and purchased a bottle from Justin.  I only washed the lower rear quarter panel, bucause honestly i didn't trust it on a new car.  Well it works!  that spot looks great and felt even better, waited a couple of days then did the rest of the car, the Stang looks beautiful.

If my calculations are correct it is about 50 cents a car wash.  ($15 for 32 oz.....1oz a wash)

My neighbor has a 2000 Mustang and we did his car too.....looks beautiful.

well worth the investment.

Respectfuly,
Dave

For sure.  Near the end of last summer I spent like $80 on Obsessive Detail ONR, waxes, glazes, polishes, etc.  It is all good stuff, and while I know the wax and everything is amongst the best you can buy, the only thing that made me say "Wow" after using it was the ONR.

No Rinse is an awesome product and is very cost effective!  Once you try it, you are hooked!

I was skeptical of No Rinse too...

I have a black car and the fear I had of putting more swirls in the paint after all the hard work I put in with my Porter Cable I couldn't bring myself to trust it. But I finally broke down and tried the No Rinse. It's awesome and makes washing our cars so much easier. No more water blowing out of the mirrors & then down the doors, no more water coming out of the door/window trim..none from the spoiler & rear bumper..

Before, the typical car wash using two buckets, rinsing, soaping the car and rinsing again with drying...would take atleast a half hour. Even then there would be a lot of water left in the mirrors & trim that I'd have to deal with once I drove half a mile down the road.

This weekend I timed how long it took for a No Rinse wash. I took my time and didn't rush at all... washing, including drying and dressing the tires only took me 12 minutes. I could have gone much faster!

I dunno man!! I guess I work fast without really noticing? 

I know it was quick because the GF was happy as could be that I used No Rinse this time.

That 12 minutes included hitting each panel twice before drying.

I have also added a capful of the no rinse to traditional car wash. 
For my very dirty Subaru, it helps the soap rinse off easily and reduces water spots.

I never thought of doing that Margarita Girl.  Maybe when my car is really really dirty, I'll give that a try...

You can also put No Rinse in a pump sprayer and pretreat heavily soiled areas.  This works great for wheels,tires, and fenderwells!

And to beat the pollen, I've been wiping down with No Rinse practically every day. 

How Obsessive of me!
