wolfgang rinseless wash
to put this in context i'd bought and tried the product a couple months ago and was stunned at the difference in shine after using it first time . kind of nice in garage today so i mixed some up in a small bottle as a quick detailer . i uncovered the hood of the 2000 vette and did one half to compare to the zaino z6 that i'd used on whole car . it was a little shinier and more slippery , the ''slippery'' improvement caught me by surprise because the zaino is really slippery . if there is yet a better quick detailer [ somewhere i saw positive things about kenotek ] let me know , if not i'm really pleased with the wolfgang and compared to zaino z6 it is CHEAP . i wish it came in 32 ounces rather than 16 or 128 ounces as i don't know if it has a long shelf life and 16 is to little and 128 way to much product .. .. .. peace

Waterless and Rinseless washes by their makeup will often show a "slippery" surface. Its likely all the lubricants used to avoid swirls and marring when used as a wash. Best part, it also has ingredients to loosen and emulsify dirt. Some Quick Detailers are nothing more than detail sprays and really don't clean that well.

directions say 3 ounces per 128 ounces of water . i made 16 ounces with 3/8 ounce of the uber . for 32 ounces you'd need 3/4 ounce of uber . i hope you will be pleased with results . . peace .......edit : it's a couple hours later and i was just thinking maybe some of wolfgangs other sprays would be even better and more beneficial in ''protecting'' the painted surfaces . all comments appreciated including thoughts on other brand products . . . peace

For the last 3 years I've been using the TurtleWax No Rinse product that Optimum claims they made for TurtleWax. It worked awesome for washing cars but I have my own system. What I did was use distilled water (we have super hard water here) in a 2 gallon pesticide sprayer with 3 or 4 cap fulls of the TurtleWax product. I would spray sections of the car and dampen my towels with the product and proceed to wipe the vehicles clean. We have multiple SUV's and pickups at work so this became a very efficient and inexpensive method to "wash" vehicles, very much like a giant detail spray bottle but at pennies per wash. But my stash of TurtleWax product ran out (no longer made) so I ordered the Optimum No Rinse, Optimum No Rinse Wash and Wax and the Wolfgang Uber Rinseless to give it a try and see which I like best.
I also mix 32 oz bottles for small jobs, etc and also when traveling to use as a detail spray. Detail sprays really are expensive when you look at what you get and what they provide compared to mixing your own product.
The weather looks like rain again so I'm going to hold out for a few days of dry weather to clean some vehicles. I'll let you know what I think of the product.

I really like the Kenotek. I use ONR and have some WG but haven't tried it yet. Lots of good stuff out there, you can wear out a credit card buying and trying it all.

It looks like detail spray is more concentrated than the waterless, if my math is correct ? (3oz. vs 2.66oz./gal.) Why would that be ?

Used the Wolfgang uber waterless wash today for the first time. Very impressed with the shine. Really like the fact that it makes so much product as I tend to go overboard with wiping the vette down after every trip, especially with the high pollen counts right now in North Louisiana. Pretty impressive getting machine silver to "pop."
