    I only just started using this stuff (only two washes under my belt), but I use a Eurow sheepskin mitt and follow it up with PakShak waffle weave towels.

    I use a Sonus Concours Buffing Towel for my wash "mitt", a MF hand towel soaked in ONR wash solution and wrung as dry as I can make it for my first drying wipe, and finish with a dry MF hand towel. I use the damp towel because I find MF that is already damp soaks up water more readily, the followup towel dries what's left.

    I can usually wash and dry my car with one CBT for the wash and two, sometimes three MF hand towels for the dry.

    Scott where can I find the Chenille covered foam pads you are using? I think I'd have much more control over what I'm doing with one of those.

    Is it recommended to use 2 bucket method for ONR? For instance, one bucket containing ONR and the other with just water for rinsing the drying towel? I guess one poster suggested wetting the drying towel with ONR to wipe....

    I do the two bucket method for every wash I do, whether its ONR or not. When I did my first ONR wash last week I did the two bucket wash and after seeing how dirty my no-solution bucket was, I made a mental note to NEVER do an ONR wash without using two buckets. My mitt just gets too filthy without being able to pre-rinse excess dirt off the surface, that I need to have that second bucket to make sure I'm not leaving grit in the solution bucket.

    I'm sure people use one bucket, but I'll only use two.

    YMMV.
