Trying ONR, few questions

I've decided to give ONR a shot.



I plan on ordering a bottle of ONR, a Cobra micro-chenille wash mitt, some 16" x 16" MF towels. I also ordered a grit guard.



My car was last polished with OP and sealed w/ Meguiar's #21, so my main question is after I get done using the ONR, what would be a good product to top it off w/? My understanding is that I don't want to use Optimum Car Wax since I used a sealant for protection. Can I continue to use my NXT QD spray or something similar, like Meguiar's #34?



Thanks for any advice, can't wait to test out the ONR.



EDIT:

Ok, I tried my my ONR. Initial impression is that I love it. I was able to wash the car in about 30 minutes, granted I have a small car.



My main concern is that the ONR did not sud up like car wash soap does. I just wanted to make sure that is normal? Pics on page 2.
 
Megs #34 will work very nice. But you can use NXT QD if you would like. You can top #21 with OCW without many problems.
 
You can use just about any sealant. Most will bond just fine to it. You can use OCW as well, most waxes will bond on top of sealants.
 
Just curious about these ONR. When you use these in a dirty (dusty) vehicle, is it posible that you can scratch the paint? I really want to try these product, so I can cut hours in washing, but just concerned about scratching the paint.
 
I've learned that a nice plush mitt, MF towel, or sea sponge would be the best for ONR. Something that will absorb the dirt particles, rather than push the particles around the paint. I've used ONR on clean and very dirty cars with no problems. Also, 2 buckets really helps.

You will be suprised at what ONR can do on a dirty car. It is truely a great product.



Patrick @ Excel Detail has a little tutorial on using ONR on his website.

Bump for a new question :) didn't want to make a new thread.

It doesn't suds up, though some seem to think it works better if the wash water is warm and de-ionized

Ok, that's kind of what I figured, but just wanted to make sure. I attached some pics after I finished washing the car, but before cleaning the wheels and wheel wells.

Yes this is normal, there are no suds, just alot of lubricity. If you use a plush wash media you will be fine. Oh and use 2 buckets.
