First rinseless of the year!

[Bunky]

I do not like doing rinseless during the colder months unless I can hose it down so the weather was very nice today so I did a rinseless after work.

The gear: Mostly Duragloss wash mitts, waffle weave towels, Kwazar sprayer, ONR multi-purpose product. I like mitts over towels so I can control pressure.

Two buckets..I do dip once. ONR in both buckets

Before pre-spray

After pre-spray - encapsulation in action

Top and back side in process...

The towels and mitts after the wash..ended up using 10 mitts

Most done...finished the wheels later.

Nice job Bunky! Never used mitts before, so I liked seeing that. Tried the LC Foam Block one time and hated it and have used thick MFs ever since. May need to give your way a try!

Nice work but man that's a lot of setup and product for a simple rinseless wash. One bucket and some towels and I'm good to go. That's honestly the most appealing part of the whole deal for me, less setup and cleanup = less time. But to each is own, and the car looks great!

The Duragloss mitts pick up / retain dirt more (better?) than the Meg's mitts. The Duragloss tend to be traditional microfiber but the Meguiars' mitt has a more shaggy strand like fiber. I removed the stitching that creates the finger pockets so I have a full open mitt.

Great job Bunky! The mitts look like a safer procedure than just using towels.
