Awesome stuff. I was sceptical. Great QD also, actually about the best I`ve found for black.

Looks like everyone likes ONR. I`m interested trying out this stuff to conserve some water.

Tom, you are a brave man. Rinseless wash wash on black vehicle. :shocked
A full wash even with a intense pre-rinse is a threat to a dark colored vehicle.
Glad it worked out for you. :2thumbs:

Only as a pre-polishing QD on a garaged unused since last wash vehicle, clay lube and an additive to my regular shampoo full- wash bucket.
I will say that if I still lived in New England and those winters, I would probably give it a shot as a primary cleaning tool. It is good to know there are products like QEW / ONR that will work if the situation calls for it.
Presently the risk, IMHO, is not worth the effort or my personal level of what I consider a completely cleaned vehicle. Top and bottom. Nocks and crannies.

The car is a Black P turbo garage queen.
Never really gets "dirty`. Mostly just the light film from whats blowing around.
Weather using a real wash or the ONR I`ve always found the tecnique with the proper washing and drying tools and using a grit gaurd in the bucket are the most important aspect of not marring the finish on black cars. Good to use the cal car duster first.
Plus a LOT of Natty`s blue:2thumbs:

Tom,
Sounds like a very beautiful and faaaast ride. I`m another Cali duster lover for just dusty garage queens
Seems like we are on the same page in terms of washing. :2thumbs:

I used the traditional two bucket washing method for a long time and now I`ve switched to ONR and have been using it regularly for several months.
My wife`s mini-van is sapphire/dark blue and I`ve been using ONR on it with great success.
In my experience, using a very careful technique (2 bucket w/ grit guard, pre-treating each panel with QD strength ONR sprayed on before washing) there is no greater risk of marring with ONR than with a conventional wash.

Having water drip into every nook and cranny from spraying with water still does not make it completely clean. It is a lot more fun to use the pressure washer though :D

Water rinse at hose pressure plus Q-tips or detailing brush will get the job done.
Pressure washer plus APC does miracle for undercarriage.:secret

I guess if it can fit in your ear it can fit just about anywhere. (that rhymes) :grinno:
I haven`t tried it yet but one of these days I will put her up on ramps and do the undercarriage. You wouldn`t just use ONR under too??
