Reviewed: clean your vehicle using the NEW BLACKFIRE Wet Diamond Waterless Wash!

I'm quite anxious to try this as I have been using rinseless wash products for quite a number of years. Some of the old timer brands would likely not even be recognized by many here. Opticlean is what I have been using lately and it works quite well. It's inexpensive when buying/using the concentrate. I hope the BF product is released soon and on special intro price to boot. I plan to compare it to current and past rinseless washes I have used and stick with it if it trumps'em.

I will eagerly await your review!
 
I hadn't thought about doing a written review but it does read like that doesn't it? Perhaps I will, we shall see once it's released. Pricing, sizes available, shipping cost, and a few other variables play into it.
 
Todd so your saying that BLACKFIRE Wet Diamond Waterless Wash has bridged the gap between waterless wash and a quick wax. I have UWW and ONR concentrates and they both add a bit of protection but not much compared to a QW such as OCW or MUQW. With me having UWW, ONR, OC and a few QW's such as OCW, DGAW, GGSW(mostly used as a drying aid) and a few others. I already have a lot of overlapping products and am trying to figure out where this may fit in. As it is now even doing a WW it is a two step process to get that added protection. From your review it looks like BFWW is a one step product.

Hmmmmm good question, I had to re-read it about 12 times to figure out all of the abbreviations, but.... :rofl

BLACKFIRE Wet Diamond Waterless Wash uses a high concentration of Wet Diamond Polymers to safely lubricate the paint's surface (and the dirt). The benefit is that it adds considerable protection, both as a stand alone product and even more on top of Wet Diamond Sealant/Midnight Sun Carnauba because it bonds to and reinforces those products.

So in terms of a quick detailer Wet Diamond Waterless Wash is going to clean anything that a qd can and add more gloss and protection then a qd can dream of.

In terms of adding protection compared to a spray sealant/wax, such as the current BLACKFIRE Wet Diamond Deep Gloss Spray, I would say almost but not quite. This is because Waterless Wash is formulated as a cleaning agent first and foremost, so the other chemicals in the Waterless Wash are designed to clean and lubricate. While the current Deep Gloss spray is designed to bond and add protection.

I will say, though, that we found that Waterless Wash provided almost (as in very close) to the increase in gloss and protection of Deep Gloss, I mean it was really close. So we had to options, improve the gloss, shine, and protection by updating Deep Gloss or drop it from the line. Knowing us, I will let you guess what we did!
 
Todd I went back a reread part of your post and saw were you said it was going to be offered in a concentrate. I was all set to try out Detailer's Pro series rinseless wash & gloss once I ran out of ONR but seeing how much I like the Blackfire products I've used so far I think I will be going this route.
 
do you think it's safe to use waterless wash on the white powdery haze that gets on the back of the car when driving during dry spells during the winter months? The snow is long gone, the roads are dry as a bone but there is probably salt residue everywhere.

I wouldn't call the stuff a film b/c it hasn't gotten wet, but not sure I want to just soak it down with waterless and have at it... has anyone tried?

Wet Diamon Waterless Wash has definetaly raised the bar on what can be safely remove from a spray and wipe wash. If any waterless wash will work, this is it. That said, I always err on the side of caution and would likely opt for a rinseless wash instead to take advantage of the water flushing effect. Particularly if there was rinseless wash product built around our Wet Diamond Polymers! Just saying...
 
thanks Todd

I'd probably just go do it and see but I have been experimenting with different wash media and techniques this year and the finish is by no means flawless so i wouldn't be able to tell if I caused any additional micro marring or not...
 
Todd you are defiantly playing this for all it's worth. You must sit back and laugh after your posts.:rofl At least you are having fun at work!
 
I'll have to give this a try down the road, but in the winter I'm a little concerned about not using water to wash. I usually end up just using the touchless wash because there is so much crud built up on the cars.

At times you may need to do this before a rinseless wash but once you get over the phobia you will really like it. I know it goes against all logic but it works.

I would make sure to use enough spray to saturate the road salt and give it about 30 seconds to dwell. Work a small section at a time and flip to a clean side of the microfiber as soon as it becomes caked with residue. I would use something like a Cobra Deluxe Jr. 600 Microfiber.
