It can also be use as quick detailer and clay lube. So no need to get separated clay lube and quick detailer.
Best waterless car wash commercial ever. Light hearted and informative. Love the " secret ingredient" - common sense.
ONR prespray with the worx pressure washer out of a 5 gal bucket is amazing.
Do you pre-spray the whole car and then ONR wash each panel at a time?
Gentlemen, another triumph! When used as directed, it works every time! Love the Big Red Sponge and some Double Twistress (or Pluffles, too!) for drying with the OPT spray wax as a drying agent!! I learned the science and techniques of ONR and its proper application through your TRC videos (especially those with Yvan!), and am very grateful for the effort you all have put into sharing your knowledge & best practices!!
When dirtier, try a pre-spary using Optimum Opti-Clean, it feels very, very slick when washing with ONR after that!
Another option is to use Opti-Seal as a drying aid. It is amazing and very economical
this seems like such a miracle product and i want to drink this to prevent covid
Im about too
I did, I had the strangest side effects a few days later. I woke up feeling very strong and had these wounds on my wrist. Few days later I found I could shoot webs from the wounds. Then I kissed my crush while hanging from my webs upside down.
Wow I literally wanna drink this stuff. And bathe in it to get rid of all my weaknesses
We demand a Opti-Clean video next! You forgot to tell to use it as a pre-spray in the winter months!
Indeed, it was The Rag Company who sold me on ONR- and I'm glad for it! It took me some time to trust it and I still pre-treat my newer vehicle with ONR in a pump-up sprayer, but it did no harm the one time I did not pre-treat it... ONR FTW!!!
I was so skeptical of this product for the past few years but finally got some. I absolutely LOVE it. Used it on my dads Fusion and brother’s F150. Created an ONR wash kit for family friend’s 2021 Supra. Use it on my Edge at the car wash as mentioned in the video and am quite literally about to go wash my Mustang in my nice warm garage with it.
Love me some ONR. I'm glad you all made this video because it did reinforce my love for that product. I'm a simple dude, and the more simple the process, the happier I am. 8-)
I use it as you stated, it works very well! Great to have my ONR solution on standby any time I need to quickly clean my cars. Thanks TRC and Yvan for all the demos.
I've been using onr on my vehicle for a long time and I recently mixed up a 4 gallon batch and steam cleaned my carpets throughout my whole house with it and they turned out absolutely beautiful ❤️
Just gave my new 2020 Mustang Bullitt its first O.N.R. rinseless wash, and I must say I am VERY impressed!
I'm a pretty new user of ONR, and I love the stuff. I will never go back to regular car soap again. Here's a tip I tried today: before drying, spray some ONR on your drying towel. That sort of "supercharged" the towel and drying was a breeze.
Give this a try with some P&S Bead Maker next time for some added protection and insane shine!
Brilliant info guys. It almost sounds like it's the only product you need it's so darned good! (Just as well I ordered a big bottle yesterday!) 👍👍👍👍
Rinseless washes completely changed the game; they're so much better than traditional soaps for everything other than cleaning really dirty wheels and looking cool in a foam cannon. I was recently gifted a bottle of car soap from a great / reputable brand so I thought I'd give it a whirl (first time in probably 3 years that I've used a traditional soap) and remembered immediately why I swapped to only using rinseless on my paint.
Always have ONR in my arsenal and have done for about 12 years!
Saw a video of a youtube detailer in Oregon who said use as window washed fluid. So i do and it works great. I will change it out to the rain x in December when it gets cold in texas as rainx is good to like -10 or something like that. But as long as not freezing temps show up i will keep onr in the window washer reservoir.
This is the 1st time i bought onr so i bought the small bottle. After using it now i need to make sure to order bigger bottle. Lol
In Norway I use 1 cap of ONR with 4L of battery water (distilled water) as window washer fluid. In the winter I add 500ml of De-Icing spray.
Love this stuff!
Great video guys!
I totally love ONR, just tested and i already want to buy some more
I first doubted that this could work as well as a bucket and soap. But after I tried it I am a convert . I bought a big red sponge and I only want to use onr a to wash. My wife’s Mercedes 2006 never looked better. Shiny the whole winter.
There is nothing better than ONR!!! The entire Optimum line is outstanding. #nohose
Thanks guys love your channel and finding it very informative. Have a new car and want to keep it looking new but I don't have easy access to running water so this ONR solution would be great for me. I have a detailing bucket/grit guard and Rag Company Cyclone Mitt. Ok on weekly washes but monthly I want to use Iron X fallout remover -can I use ONR with that wash or would it be better to use a traditional soap and water wash then? Or what about pre-wash with ONR, rinsing with water then applying Iron X then rinsing with water then ONR and hand drying?
Used it last summer for the 1st time during the hose pipe ban and have used it since. Even invested in the big red sponge, which at U.K. prices is a serious investment 😁👍🇬🇧
Enjoy the Rag Company Podcast 👍
I was at a show and wanted to try ono , yvan was there and sold me the sponge . When he told me the price i was like £30 for sponge what !!! Still bought it and used once . But in fairness i got a great result.
Alan N hey Alan. Check out detailed image.com search for something called a blue grout sponge. It’s literally the same thing as the big red sponge. Thank me later
Kenny Ono same shape, far from the same material, durability, or functionality .
"Dane! Hyperfocus on my face!!" I'm glad Levi brought his Diet Pepsi on-set for a cameo!
Need to try it
This is Jamaica love your video good job
When using ONR as a pre-spray prior to power washing what ration (concentration) should be used?
Last week out of sheer desperation becuase I was out of the "famous" soaps to foam with, I used Optimum car wash soap. Worked much better than something called Honeydew
Did you checked out power clean?
I love the Hyper Twins trick....leaving the compound on the paint before polishing. Call me crazy, but I yell out "Hyper Twin powers ACTIVATE!!" ...ok maybe I'm a little weird..
Great information thank you 🙏....so i don’t need filtered water 💧 just tap water? And it won’t damage my steamer.
Dear Team ,I'm a big fan of your products and using TRC and optimum products from last 3 years -you both have finiqy quality products...
One question and really waiting for the answer on it,can we use or put paste wax or sealant after ONR wash?
I love ONR, just did my little sisters whip with it, only the thing w Rinseless washes though is the wheels…
I use it on our fleet of heavy trucks but am scared to use it on personal vehicles haha. Once i apply ppf ill def use the onr. Great product saves aloooottt of water.
I need a optimum class get certified with all that knowledge. Just did onr wash on my mustang in this Chicago winter
Mark Ouija next Optimization class is in Memphis, March 9-10.
@@LacroixCruiser only about 8hr drive from Chicago not bad👍
Yvan tyvm i appreciate this
I do a mixture of both on my suv ..
Prerinse with onr
Proceed to h20 prerinse
Foam wash and rinse
Rinseless wash
Drying with some sort of dry aid or detailed .
great product nice people - share the love....
Jo brothers,
I am starting a mobile detailing in Germany and for a waterless wash I like the idea of maximum lubrication possible. I like onr. But i also like the action of a foamer.
My question is this: why did optimum not produce onr so it could be used with foamer bottle? For example- frothe from ammo- is it a whole different technology or
Is it just that the foaming agents are added? Could I add foaming agents to onr and then use it in a way like frothe from
Ammo?
Do you have to remove the polymers of ONR before sealing the paint with a different product? If yes what should be used? Dilution ratio. Thanks
Here they talked about high pressure prewash that probably scratch the surface... How to use onr as prewash? For example my first step is foam gun, can I add a bit of ONR in the foam gun or is it useless? Thanks
Greetings! How I use ONR in my Mytee Extractor? Can I used with the others chemicals or just the ONR.
Whats the best way to store the BRS after a wash? dry? Leave in a solution in Ziplock,, will it form bacteria if not re-used for awhile?
Onr in carpet extractor ?
Can fabric seats be washed with onr then ?
Onr deleted in very hot water for fabric cleaning ? Will it work even better in hot water?
Ty
Hey just want to clarify what ya'll meant about pressure washing before wash. If my car is moderately dirty, do I apply ONR before I pre rinse then proceed to wash with ONR? Thanks!
Yeah, I can conclude this stuff is great. So many many usages.
I'm confused. Here you say it doesn't leave behind a residue. In another one of your vids with Yvan, he specifically says it leaves behind a polymer/residue which makes it easier to clean for the next wash. Does it leave behind anything, and if it does leave behind something, will it affect the properties of my LSP? I bought some ONR cause it sucks to wash outside in the 100+ degree Texas summers, but I haven't tried it yet. With ONR, I can use it in the garage.
Question.... Does anyone know what happens if ONR dries on your paint? Are there any negative irriversable damaging effects?
Great movie !!!
Funny, I've been adding this to my hot water extractor for a couple years now. This East Coast hard water sucks. Not anymore with ONR.
Off Dat Go-Go Hi 👋 so ONR softens the tap water 💧?
How long can the dilution 1/16 quick detailer be stored in a spray bottle (duration)
Hi guys, please can you tell me if I can use this on a OEM matte finish? Will it add shine?
I never thought of adding it to my steamer. What dilution should I aim for?
Im Curious to know more about using in a Steamer. Where can I find more information on this? Or can you guys make a video about it.... Thanks! Great Vid and great product!
same ratio as everything else, use the steamer as normal.
Great video
If you have hard water it can dry on the surface and wipe off? Or does this just apply to already distilled water?
What dilution is recommended for steam cleaning solution?
Serious question,
Can ONR properly diluted be used as a replacement for windshield washer fluid?
I use a misting pump at 250 to 800psi it works well. to pre rinse. than rinseless solution.
Any chance you can show me some links on how to wash my Black Mercedes with ONR THANKS MUCH
So can you put this in a power washer and wash, and just use a sponge on the big stuff and blow it dry? Or must you wipe it dry?
can i do a wash with ONR and use bead maker and get the same beadmaker results im use to?
Does it have a shelf life? I’d like to buy a big container but it will last me years. Will it store for that long in a shed?
Guys, could you provide any video onw how to clean cars with steam and onr in proper professional and efficient way with time and effort? thank you in advance
can you use the product as a carpet cleaner with wet/ dry vac?
Great video, which microfiber towel do you recommend for medium to light cleaning
The Rag Company ok, I’m using the edgeless 365 gsm 70/30 in yellow so I know how dirty the rag gets
Need your opinion on how different or better is it from CarPro Ech2o?
Can we compound after cleaning with rinseless wash
How many capfulls do I put in a 32oz spray bottle for a prespray
Is ONR Wash&Wax safe to use on a fleshly painted car ?
Curious.... quick question. Could you explain how it makes your steamer work better please.
Think it's more for longevity of the steamer. Minimizes hard water issues
256:1 for carpet extractor as well?
I have ONR but am often confused on ratio's....is there one spot with ratio's listed for the different uses? ie: wash, detail spray, interior, glass, clay lube, etc, etc, etc.... What is the effect of using too much product?
It's always 256:1.
Sorry but it's NOT always 256:1 It even says otherwise on the bottle! The general consensus seems to be - washing 256:1, clay lube 64:1, glass and interior cleaning 32:1 and instant detailer 16:1. All info gleaned from pro detailers on UA-cam.
ONR with the wax cuts my wash time in half plus the car is much cleaner that using soap. My car is now coated so even more reason to go rinseless.I wash the wheels and tires normally, then apply the ONR on the paint, glass and the rest of the exterior!!!!!!
I have my first bottle on the way!
I use a sprayer too with it
Onr in a steamer? Is there a video on that?
Can anyone tell me the ratio in milliliter and litres for washing and a clay lube ?
Can you please do a video using ONR in a Steemer.
Had someone recently ask me can they use in windsheild washer bottle? Hahaha
Can one be applied as a waterless
Can I run ONR through a pressure washer safely? If so, would it be able to work as sort of a spot free rinse?
Charlie Graham wondering the same
Probably a silly question, but I just got my order and can't wait to use it on my new (to me) Mercedes, does the water temperature affect the cleaning effectiveness?
You don't need to, but using warm water works better than cold water. You should be fine with regular tap water for washing your car. You could use ONR with warm water on some more stubborn dirt. You could dunk a microfiber towel in warm ONR (256:1) and leave it on top of bird droppings or bug guts for a few minutes to loosen them.
When clear coat restorer coming out
Can it be used with a brush for the top of a tall pickup truck?
Detail Enthusiast yes
I use ONLY 1 bucket.. with no grit guard but I use 4 -6 towels with OPTIMUM (Green) Wash and Wax .. using the 4 fold towel method to get 8 squares. I use the bucket ONLY to soak towels or to scoop out some solution as needed so I never put a used dirt filled towel back into the solution. IF NEEDED, I hand ring out the towel and then take out some solution to relubricate it… washing a car section then drying that section with the other drying towels.. repeat around car.. no bucket contamination, only 1 bucket and a few towels
This is the Garry Dean method...
Do you guys prefer Opti-Seal or Beadmaker as a drying aid with ONR?
JimboJason Opti-seal works better as it seems much, much better to get the water to stay in the towel.
Can you put it in extractor ?
I still get dirt left after two passes with the big red sponge
I am a fan of ONR, been using it for more than 10 years. There are cases though where ONR does not cut it. It has difficulty to emulsify greasy stuff and the current soot produced by DFI engines (the stuff the Net calls 'road film'). Optimum Car Wash does a better job with that. I know that Power Clean can be used as a pre-rinse but it is an extra step and it will remove existing protection. So in the rain season I prefer washing with Optimum Car Wash.
sportscarnut You can dilute Power-Clean to be safe.
@@Sherukka Of course diluted 1:5! A necessity with ONR with greasy dirt, but not an issue with Optimum Car Wash. And Power Clean even diluted will remove existing protection...
@@sportscarnut I have turned to Opti Clean when the crud is a little too thick for ONR. It's definitely worth a try!
@@edmundiverson6377 Apples and Oranges.
I have no problem cleaning “road film” with only ONR where I live = real winters with lots of salt spread on the roads.
Can you use ONR as a waterless??
Hi guys when the water gets really dirty should you change it or carry on. Also I see you can use in a steamer so if I filled it up with hard water and added say a 0z of the blue stuff would that soften the water. Cheers guys
Mark Newman go with your comfort level. You should still use distilled water.
What ratio do we use for steamers?
same ratio as everything else. 256:1
I prefer ech20 from carpro. Does the same and also leaves si02 protection.
Can I use ONR on Ceramic coated Vehicle?
Absolutely! It's ceramic safe.
A question for Dr Lacroix ; Would it be safe on a recent year's Airstream trailer that has special Alcoa clear coat protection? I protect it with a Wallbernize RV SuperSAeal Twice a year and often without or restricted water. Also, I Just bought ONR and I am very satisfied with my first wash on the truck. super shiny and clean from the Florida Falling Gunk by the Ocean and quick! The hardest is to not drop the sponge and MF on the dirty ground🙄.
Julie Poirier yes, very safe on every surface, including Airstreams.
@@LacroixCruiser Thank you Dr., Nice arrangement Beard/Moustache ;-0)
4:39 then why optimum still produce Optimum car shampoo?
Can you use ONR with a ik Foam 1.5 sprayer?
Yes you can
CLASSIC!
