Pinnacle Waterless Wash Kit

[pgp]

This is my first review.
I picked up the Pinnacle Waterless Wash Concentrate kit. It comes with 6 Cobra jr. towels and a spray bottle. The concentrate has 1 oz. marks on the side and the spray bottle has measurements on the side every 4 ounces. It holds 33oz. enough for one 32:1 mixture.

The concentrate is very thin and like milk. It is mixed 32:1 ratio. It should make up about 4 gals. of RTU. wash. The Pinnacle bottle has a handy measuring section on top for 1/2 and 1 ounce.
The towels are very nice and soft, 16x16, they have a removable tag.

After a pass here is the dirt it picked up, I turned over the towel and buffed it dry. The car was washed earlier in the week with a rinse-less wash.

Here is the final result in the sun.

My results were very good, the car has a nice warm glow to it in the sun. I believe I should have used a bit more product and taken a little more time. This was my first waterless wash and first Pinnacle use. Thanks for reading !

Nice !!!!

There is a balance with ww products. Use too much and it smears, too little and marring.

I use around 20-30 oz of product and 12 Edgeless towels every time I do a waterless wash for extra safety measure. I also find it interesting how some products call for very high dilution ratios like D115 (1:4) and Opti-Clean (1:3) while others use very low dilution ratios like 1:32. Wouldn`t the 1:32 ratio products be so concentrated that they`d be almost gel-like? Or are Opti-Clean and D115 recommended ratios just excessive to prevent marring and customer complaints?

Pheerix, the concentrate by itself is very watery. It`s a 32:1 ratio, being 32 parts water and 1 part product.

Pinnacle WW rules.

With the others - your paying for water.

I did another quick wash today, used more product and it did smear a bit more. The car was warmer than the other day. Today I did it in the afternoon and the other wash was in the morning. It was windy today if that matters? Still a quick way to wash a fairly clean car !

Me, I`d rather have a little smear and clean it up with a good micro, than use too little. Just keep another micro close and do it as it happens.
