Ultima Waterless Wash Review and Question

[jw]

So I finally got around to trying Ultima Waterless Wash. I`ve never liked the smell of ONR so i thought i`d give this a shot. I found the product to not smell much better than ONR. It did a good job cleaning with one exception. I noticed that my wash media(grout sponge) got really dirty compared to ONR. With ONR, no matter how dirty the sponge got, it always washed out when i put it back in the bucket. With Ultima, my sponge was really dirty looking and it never came clean. SHould I take this as a sign that ONR has way better dirt releasing properties? Maybe I need to go back to ONR?

Never has happened to me but I never used Ultima.



Did you use a brand new sponge? Was it Zymol`s, HD`s, Lowe`s, Supernatural`s? What if you use a MF towel?

I would have guessed just the opposite. For me, when using ONR, the wash media unless using a sponge never will rinse clean. It builds up as it cleans. Some call this staining.

I was using a lowes grout sponge.

Could the staining be caused by some kind of thin layer/spot of oil which which would not be easily washed away



Edit. Forgot to say how nice it is to see your name back here

I agree with Al - I find ONR "stains" my wash mitts much more than UWW+. (A good hand wash generally gets it clean with either, though.)
