Default rinseless car wash [killrwheels comment please]

i purchased ''dp 4 in 1'' rinseless wash several years ago but was hesitant to use it . tried it a month or so ago and have used it several times since including this morning on daily driver . every time my thought has been the same '' car is shinier when i finish than it is after ''qd''ing car with zaino z6 but not is slippery feeling . one thing bothers me , when washing house windows this week i used some ''dp'' in the water and after squeegeeing was getting a kind of smeary streak on glass . car is silver and recently zainoed , being silver ''things'' don't stand out as they would on a dark color so i've been wondering of i'm getting a residue on car but can't see it . i know , if i can't see it it is irrelevant . i see numerous car finish products i'd like to try but a] i'm unwilling to spend the money b] i'm pleased with the zaino products . HOWEVER : i was wondering if another rinseless wash might be even better and would be interested in purchasing said product if there is a high probability i would be more pleased . all thoughts appreciated , thank you . . . peace...ps. hope others benefit from replies also .

Wolfgang Uber is our most popular and newest rinseless/waterless wash product. (I did see Nick is looking for a few people to try a new product on our website/forum also)

You should not see any residue when using these products. There are indeed glossing agents which act similar to detail sprays. While it may not be super slippery, these products have a lot of lubricating agents to help avoid swirls when used as directed.

How does everyone feel about using multiple super soft MF's (1100 gsm) vs. a wash mitt for regular washes as well as rinseless washes? Or using multiple wash mitts?

I've noticed the mitts rarely seem to have the gsm listed, which leads me to think they're probably not as soft as 1100gsm.

I really like Garry Dean's principles and it seems to make the most sense of never using a dirty towel.

I wash with a super thick and soft MF towel. I don't like having my hands and fingers restricted from getting into smaller places and edges. I have found absolutely no difference over using a mitt. When using the two bucket wash along with a grit gard in each bucket, you may not even find it necessary to use multiple towels.

I use a mitt (never put my hand in, just use the weight of the mitt), then into a gg rinse bucket, squeeze out rinse water, then into solution bucket & repeat.

this way I don't need to wash 72 towels till I want to

our best investment was the CR Spotless, 2 bucket wash and PURE WATER! Flawless finish on even the softest of paints
