I`ve now been using Optimum No Rinse for 9 months and have been extremely pleased along with a little surprised by the results. Being a long time hose / 2 bucket washer I approached the concept of a no rinse wash with trepidation and it was merely a colder than normal winter that prompted me to try Optimum No Rinse. Being able to use a bucket of warm water and completing the washing inside the garage worked out perfectly. The surprise was the lack of marring even with a dirty winter car. At the time I remember thinking I would switch back to my regular method after the winter was over but now 8 months later I still only reach for the Optimum No Rinse and have not bothered switching back due to the convenience and shine this product results in on any vehicle.

are you using Optimum No Rinse Wash & Shine (http://www.autopia-carcare.com/optimum-no-rinse-32oz.html#.U-jwvJV0zcs) or Optimum No Rinse Wash & Wax (http://www.autopia-carcare.com/optimum-no-rinse-wash-and-wax.html#.U-jw4JV0zcs) ? I haven`t had a chance to try the wax version yet.

Wash and Shine is what I`ve been using. Never tried the Wash and Wax.

It`s the polymers doing 2 things. 1) They aide to emulsify dirt and 2) they aide in cushioning the paint. If your towel is coming away with dirt then you need to wash or No Rinse the panel 2 or 3 times before drying.

Glad to see you enjoy the ease of ONR. The Wash N Wax version of ONR is awesome for painted surfaces and exterior glass. I don`t care for it on interior glass and panels though. For those areas the original ONR is our go to product.
