Is ONR a good product for the mobile detailer?
I know Scottwax uses it but I see alot of dirty trucks and SUVs where I am. I have to use my pressure washer alot.
How is it on bugs and brake dust?
I can see how would save me time due to washing and drying in almost the same step.
Let me know guys. Trying to get geared up for winter too. | |

Ive switched to using mostly ONR washes since I find it alot easier and you dont have to worry about water dripping for hours after your done drying. Doesnt get caught up in moldings like you do with a regular hose. It takes me about 5-10 minutes longer to wash the vehicle but I make it up in the time it take to dry and remove water from the moldings. | |

And what type of mitts/sponges are the best to use?
Two-bucket method? | |

Join Date: Oct 2005 Posts: 292 | This whole process is still like rocket science to me I've read all the threads but it scares me to even think I'm washing a car with one bucket, or two buckets, or a bug sprayer...anything besides running water, can someone take a second and run down how this works, how it doesnt scratch, swirl etc? | |

Join Date: Oct 2005 Posts: 292 | I just can't see this working on black, or blue or something as far as swirls go...I'm assuming when you guys use a pressure washer your somehow getting it to just suck water out of buckets, can you post what your using? I live in an apartment with no running water outside  | |

I live in an apartment with no running water outside | I use it on all color cars and it works out just well. No scratches, just use a rinse bucket just incase you're afraid. | |
