2005 Escalade, waxed it sometime in the fall of 2006 when he got it. Washed every two weeks or so with Optimum No Rinse since then. I believe I am the only one who washes it since every two weeks (unless it stays dry the whole time in between) it is pretty dirty.
Look at how fast it starts to bead up, obviously the polymers in ONR that lift the dirt are doing something to keep the paint beading. YouTube - Optimum No Rinse Wash beading
I also uploaded a video of me washing one of the doors with ONR, it is processing right now, I'll post the link as soon as the video is ready. | |

Nice Scott. I have noticed the same beading with ONR. I have some clients that haven't had their cars waxed in God knows how long and when I use ONR it still beads up pretty nicely. | |

I just love ONR! Great stuff, Scott. Not only are you a master, you're wicked sexy on video.

Scott, where did you get that microfiber covered foam wash media? Is it expensive?
I have always wondered how the "something left behind" which causes the water beading doesn't cause sealants to have trouble bonding. Odd. | |
