How to Rinseless Car Wash using the GDWM and Infinite Use Detail Juice

I don't know if I'd add wax .. that will effectively change the chemical makeup of the product. Same idea as when people prime their wax applicator pads with a QD ...  Not pompous ... just being informative. Something to think about. A lot of work and testing goes into the makeup of these products.

Hey Charles, you know how things work out the funniest ways?

Well, right after I was asking about streaming ONR, i had this

issue for myself. This just happened 20 minutes ago.


I do think that my dilution was a tad strong, but i have never had issues before.

The different factor today was the temperature. It was colder than normal,

so I was having issues getting it to flash off.


How does IUDJ do in cold weather?


I understand that you suggest just to try it, but it is generally

the price that has kept me away from it. Is this the one that has a

bubblegum scent?



Also i believe that uncle grandpa understands how much water it uses,

he just commented that the water savings would be more apparent

on the video if it was made with just one gallon.


Some people who aren't paying attention might think,

"oh, that's how many gallons i normally use"

I've never had problems with it in cold weather, but I work in a heated garage so it's never really that cold when I'm using it (pretty much never less than 50 degrees, and usually warmer than that). In colder temps, either warming the water before putting it in the bucket or heating your pre-made bucket with a bucket warmer would probably help, as would leaving the car in the sun if possible to get the surface temp up a bit.


 


IUDJ has more of a tropical, "<span>Piña Colada" scent to it...
 
Pine Colada ?

That pretty much seals the deal Of me not buying iudj.

I am anything but a coconut fan. One of my hates.


I guess it would bring some happy memories out

In the dead of winter.


Jess, I am also surprised by people mixing products.

Sometimes it does work well not as intended by design.

I do think that wax after wash works best, but for ease,

during wash is adequate.


Of course if it is an hourly detail, or a package, I give them the best.

It is the people only worried about price that I am attempting to give

a better product to. Unfortunately, many of them will not

appreciate it. I am convinced that most people just don't

know better, and we just need to educate them.

Looks good, Sonic!  While I haven't used Garry Dean's product, I can say it sure does look nice in your video.


 


When using a similar technique at my home, I put the rinseless wash (ONR) in either a SOLO pump up sprayer or Kwazar sprayer and find that very helpful for the pre-treat phase.  If the car is really bad, I generally rinse outside with the hose and then perform my wash in the garage.  Pretty easy solution when the weather is bad.

Thank you! That's a great tip, I had one awhile back and it is great but lost it when I moved. I usually choose a cg sprayer since it would be one of the most common bottles for people to have / replicate if they desired to

Its a bit unconvincing as to the preferred method for water restricted areas then turn around filling a bucket with 4 gallons of water.


The original GD demo using only one gallon of distilled water is a bit more marketing savvy.

I was showcasing my method of rinseless washing with the GDWM technique and IUDJ, it was freezing temperatures I needed all of the warm water I could get to keep my hands alive and have towels that would not freeze (as they would if left out of the bucket). My focus is not to use the least amount of water possible, my focus is to use the safest methods. Which is why I typically use 4 gallons and a grit guard, if I was indoors I would be less skeptical of particles infiltrating my bucket but wind is rather severe here -- I mean did you see the camera dive?! 
 
<span style="font-family:'times new roman', serif;"><span style="font-size:12pt;">I don’t know how you guys get by with using so little rinseless wash. I wash my car (2013 Ford Focus) every one and a half to two weeks. It takes me at least 3 to 4 gallons in the bucket and 1 gallon in the garden sprayer of ONRWW. I use 26 to 30 Sams towels and I am in the process of up-grading to the Metropolitan Towels. I rinse the car thoroughly with hose water pressure before starting the wash. What am I doing wrong? I would wash the car more often but I am 66 with arthritis and a bad back.

Sonic--noticed your comment about your hands.   I've been using these gloves for years for winter washes -- they're like a diving suit--keep your hands dry and warm but still offer dexterity to handle your towels, mitts etc

I know your pain!!!   With the steps and quantity of product you are using you may as well just do a full traditional wash.   For a normal ONR wash I use 2 gallons in the bucket, but use that to fill a 32 oz spray bottle for pre soak.  Presoak an area, wash with ONR using a soft MF mitt, dry that area then move to the next area.  Left over solution used on wheels and wells.


 


With the GDWM you should only need a gallon for one car, 10-12 towels and your drying towels.   Each towel would have 4 surfaces when folded twice (if you're only using the fluffy side of a dual sided towel)  so a towel surface is used only once and therefore always clean when it first touches a section on the car.  Wash the area with the clean towel surface and dry.


 


Generally if the car is dirty enough to get the hose out (especially in the winter with all the salt and sand) I'll just do a traditional full wash, but then again I'm spoiled with a drain in the garage that is insulated and never gets below the mid forties even without heat.  I find myself doing more ONR washes in the warmer months because the car is not that dirty.

<span style="color:#5a5a5a;"><span style="font-family:'times new roman', serif;"><span style="font-size:12pt;">Pwaug,


<span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'times new roman', serif;">A traditional wash would take me longer even with a helper (my wife). Plus all the hassle of rinsing and trying to keep water spots off the car. I first go to a self carwash about a mile from my condo. I start by pressure washing the car. Then I pressure wash the fender wells, the tires and wheels. Next I spray the tires with a soapy mix and scrub them and rinse them. I save the wheels to ONRWW them. I finish by using spot free water to do a final rinse and I go back to the codo to ONRWW the car. The only thing I can figure is that because I am using more towels, it takes more ONRWW. I switch sides of the towels often even though the side of the towel doesn’t appear to be dirty.

Have you ever tried just the oNRww kajun?

If you with one panel at a time, it is effective at removing water spots.

Many people spay with pressure washer, then go to ONR.

The way and rinse us only necessary in very dirty situations.
