- In this demonstration we show you the power that ONR has with its encapsulation process against one of the leading competitors. This demo shows you in realtime the differences and benefits you get from using ONR (No Rinse). What Rinseless wash are you using?
Optimum No Rinse - optimumcarcare...
This video is just in time! I was about to buy my first rinsless wash solution and was leaning towards “brand x” as it was the newest
I’ve been using brand x for almost a year and after this video I’m going back to ONR lol😂
As soon as I saw this video, I bought a brand new bottle of Version 5 ONR. I have several different types of rinseless washes from many different brands but Optimum No Rinse (ONR) is one of the greatest, most economical, and versatile products in the detailing world today! Having a bottle of ONR on hand and you can do a full detail on your vehicle in a quick and efficient manner. I highly recommend this product. It is a good product and a great value. You can also use it in your home as well. My wife uses it to clean all of our floors (tile and laminate), along with counter tops, wiping down the kitchen cabinets every few months, cleaning the shower tile and tub, the applications are endless. And the best part is it leaves no residue so you don't have to worry about wiping it all down afterwards. It makes cleaning so much more efficient and easier. Great on windows too in the car AND in the house. Makes fast work of cleaning exterior home windows. Leaves no residue!!! I have not tried the new version yet but from looking at the bottle I just received it appears to be a thicker formula, darker blue in color, and the scent might be slightly stronger (which I like). I would like to see Optimum use the scent from their OPTI-CLEAN in ONR because that is a great scent! Unless ONR is the same scent as Opti-Clean??? I don't know. I love the scent of Opti-Clean. It leaves behind one of the freshest and most "clean" scent I have ever smelled. It is a hard smell to describe but it is almost like going into a Doctor's Office or Medical Office that has just been freshly cleaned or serviced by a janitorial company. Just a clean, fresh scent. That's the scent they need to make a dedicated all surface interior cleaner with. That would be a amazing. Some type of foaming interior cleaner with the ability to clean everything inside, steering wheel, seats, fabrics, vinyl, etc. And have some sort of anti-microbial additive in it too. Then give the product that wonderful Opti-Clean scent that could linger for about a week! That would be an amazing addition to the Optimum line of products.
Thanks for your comment and glad to hear that you love ONR!
Excellent and a perfect demonstration of the difference between ONR and the pretenders (not the band). Frankly, it's about time OPT went after the subpar wannabes.
I love ONR and continue to use it all the time, but I've never had a single issue with Absolute in my environment and with my wash methods. Both products work great!
Great test though, very cool to see how ONR does it's thing.
Thanks for sharing!
100% expected. It just needs to be slicker, and release dirt far better. Stains all of my wash media lol.
What’s crazy is looks like the onr was getting cleaner w/ every stir lol
Doubles as an awesome party trick!
I’m going back over to Amazon to hit buy it now. I had onr in my cart for 3 days now.
I use ONR in the winter, and haven't tried any other Rinseless Washe products, but I do know that encapsulation is only one side of the story, the other side is braking down the dirt that is stick to the paint so we need another demonstration of that.
Can argue with this! Impressive!
This result shows this is the best than competitors
brand x looks like absolute rinseless ;)
Not a fair comparison. Absolute isn’t a surfactant. Just polymers for protection during the wipe.
@@ScottShirey-h2v neither is ONR. ONR is a polymer based rinseless wash, it just happens to be better than the competition
@@ScottShirey-h2vwhat does it matter if it's fair. Which is going to protect your paint
Love ONR. I recommend it for everyone.
Wow! I have both. Now I know what to do with my bottle of "Brand X". Dilute it to 64:1 and use it as drying aid. My ONR? Of course it is going to be my #1 rinseless wash.
Even with version 4 I have notice how to bucket stay notably cleaner than other competitors!
Yes, your bucket stays cleaner, not your car or wash media.
Woooow... nice comparison...ONR FOR THE WIN!!🎉🎉🎉
You know it!
Looks like the competitor was absolute!
@@charlesbrasington7599agreed!
How is this evidence? How does this video show or proof "encapsulation"?
Now do a test showing how clean the Wash media is after dunking in the bucket and before returning it to the paint.
Exactly. This is a joke.
@@havingtoomuchfun4806by using the clean bucket logic, you really should using multiple wash media and never introduce dirty media into the bucket. Both cups have the same amount of dirt in them. If you are using a sponge or just one towel, which solution pulls more off the media? That’s why this “test” doesn’t actually prove much
Just use a 2 bucket method.
Cool but this is a way more concentrated than 256:1 😅
Would have liked to see it at the recommended dil ratio.
This is a really neat presentation of how ONR drags the dirt to the bottom of the bucket. I've used the other rinseless' and noticed the water was dirtier after the wash - I thought they worked better at the time.
It wasn't until I took off my grit guard (in my ONR bucket) I realized the dirt was all at the bottom.
Nice demo. I really wish you would have used the correct 1:256 ratio in the demo jars. that would have shown real results. That cap full was about .5oz and was for a 128oz container. No complaints as I am a ONR user on my BMWs.
Awesome results!
To be copied is the greater form of flattery, and usually, the original is still the best!
How is this evidence? How does this video show or proof "encapsulation"?
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow! Fascinating
Wow! This video killed it!
Love ONR! It's all I use and have no interest in trying anything else! Just one thing I noticed in your video... the text says 1 oz. was added, but you only poured in one cap full which is .05 ounce, correct?
Echo2 is very good and used it. ONR is top
1) ONR
2) Carpro Echo2
Brand x looks like the stuff I use....that's just great😮
😂same! I know what it is… dang it, time to switch back to the og
we do windows tint whats the mix ratios for clean the window tint and glass also for touch up paint cleaning? i heard i can mix with little bit of bead maker and distilled water?
@davidc2023 .5 oz per gal. or 1:256 ratio for glass. Same as for car washing.
Would like to see it compared to a surfactant style rinseless as well. Does a surfactant encapsulate dirt as well or just lubricate it ?
Surfactant style rinseless will hold it in suspension (a separate mechanism from encapsulation) even more than Absolute does.
Both styles are completely safe despite what this video purports to show. I think the setup here is a little bit biased as they are using a material with a high percentage of extremely fine grained particle sizes. The larger grains of abrasive sand (that we are most concerned about) are not visible, but in my experience they drop out of suspension just as readily no matter if you are using ONR, Absolute or DIY Detail.
In this case, wash procedure and technique is far more important than the products themselves.
Use what you like and enjoy!
For whoever didn't know that ONR is king...now you know
How is this evidence? How does this video show or proof "encapsulation"?
@AndreasSchwarzinger if it has to be explained to you, then I would hasten to wager that you don't want to know the truth that ONR encapsulates dirt better than any other rinseless wash
@@tugbankert6581 but how exactly does this video proof „encapsulation“?
All you see in this video is a separation. You can repeat this exact experiment on your own and pour olive oil into the cup and you‘ll also see a separation effect. Does this mean that olive oil also encapsulates?
@@AndreasSchwarzinger have you ever done an olive oil test? Maybe olive oil does separate or encapsulate. You would want to use to wash a car. It would be all slimey.
Encapsulation is seen best through a microscope. That test may be hard to show on a UA-cam video. However, encapsulation can be seen with the naked eye when the water turns clear and the dirt sinks down.
@@tugbankert6581 can you please enlighten me on the link between encapsulation and separation? That‘s the part which I don‘t understand.
ONR🔥💯
Just curious as to why the stick on the Absolute is a much darker brown before the products were added? Not saying ONR isn't a great product, but to be fair one stick looks much dirtier than the other.
Wow .. very effective comparison.
How is this evidence? How does this video show or proof "encapsulation"?
@@AndreasSchwarzinger I didn't say it proves encapsulation. I said it was an effective comparison. Are you just a trolling keyboard warrior.
What rinseless do you use?
@@darkwhorse please stay factual.
Maybe I am missing something here, or I don´t quite understand the test and/or I am interpreting the results in a wrong way, but in my opinion, this "test" does NOT show in any way, shape or form that ONR really "encapsulates". And it´s in my opinion a really really good example of how you can manipulate viewers into buying into marketing terminology with seemingly scientific testing.
What we see in this test and video is that in the ONR cup there is some sort of separation. The dirt / dirty water separates from the ONR solution. Whereas in the other cup, there is no separation.
In my view and opinion, this is NOT encapsulation. It is, in fact, quite the opposite. When I see a separation like this, then the dirt is NOT encapsulated. If we translate the results of this test into the real world and application on a car, then this would mean that if I spray ONR on a panel, then ONR will sit on top of the dirt whereas the dirt will "sink" down onto the panel. So, as soon as I touch the panel with a mitt or towel, my mitt / towel is gliding on the layer of ONR and I drag the dirt along the panel - which is exactly what I DON´T want.
If I translate the findings of this test on the other product into the real world, then it emulsifies / encapsulates / whatever, meaning it mixes with the dirt, and then when I use my mitt / towel then there is a mix of product, water and dirt which I drag along the panel - which is safer than dragging the dirt along the panel.
What I´m interested in is to see what happens if you pour some olive oil into the same cup. I´m pretty sure you would see a similar kind of separation. Does that mean that olive oil also "encapsulates"?
Again, maybe I´m missing something here, but I really don´t see how this test prooves in any way, shape or form how ONR actually "encapsulates" something. And I´m even more shocked that noone else seems to realize this and how so many people just take what was said in this video and blindly repeat it without critically thinking about what they just saw.
That‘s why I don‘t understand why you say it‘s an „effective comparison“…
Would Hyperfoam ONR perform the same as the original ONR or more like the competition because of the surfactants?
It performs better than the competition but original ONR is the only rinseless wash that encapsulates dirt and drops it to the bottom of the bucket allowing you to wash with clean water. Surfactant based rinseless washes suspend dirt in the wash solution instead of dropping it to the bottom.
I bet brand x is P&S Absolute
Dyi Rinseless

Definition of ENCAPSULATE
1 : to show or express the main idea or quality of (something) in a brief way
* a phrase that perfectly encapsulates [=sums up] my feelings about the day
* The first song encapsulates [=captures] the mood of the whole album.
2 : to completely cover (something) especially so that it will not touch anything else
* The contaminated material should be encapsulated and removed.
So yes we feel that this demo shows that the dirt particles are "Encapsulated" and yes separated due to that. If the dirt wasn't encapsulated the water would remain dirty. Also the video visually "Encapsulates" the science that we are showing in this demo. So both meanings of the word "encapsulate" are showed in this video.
To answer your view: "In my view and opinion, this is NOT encapsulation. It is, in fact, quite the opposite. When I see a separation like this, then the dirt is NOT encapsulated. If we translate the results of this test into the real world and application on a car, then this would mean that if I spray ONR on a panel, then ONR will sit on top of the dirt whereas the dirt will "sink" down onto the panel. So, as soon as I touch the panel with a mitt or towel, my mitt / towel is gliding on the layer of ONR and I drag the dirt along the panel - which is exactly what I DON´T want."
When you wet the surface with ONR, the solution (due to the polymers used in the formula) will lift and encapsulate the dirt particles which protects the surface while you clean. The dirt is trapped in the wash media and then released into the bucket where it is pulled to the bottom so it is not reintroduced onto the surface.
Where as if you were to wash with another rinseless wash that is NOT encapsulating the dirt - the dirt will not be pulled to bottom of bucket and you will be washing with dirty water and have the potential to reintroduce the dirt onto the surface. Which will increase your chances of marring the surface.
As to your point of olive oil - not relevant at all with this demonstration. Yes that is "separation" due to oil and water will not mix unless you have a coupler which binds oil and water together or an emulsifier (soap/surfactant).
@@opticarcare The accurate scientific term you are looking for is flocculation, and it is different from encapsulation. In fact, it is nearly a polar opposite. You can check the journal article "Structures, properties, and applications of zwitterionic polymers" by Qu et al.
P&s vs onr. How much does one differ from diy detail rinseless?
The channel called Detail Projects just did a video in response to this, testing DIY
Is this as relevant to WaterlessWash as it is to RinselessWash ?
Any reason the chemical formula would need to be different for either?
Waterless and ONR are two different use cases so they are formulated for their intended purpose. Waterless also has the addition of our patented UV blockers.
In science what’s the saying…it’s not significant unless it’s repeatable, right?
Please put up ONR against other brands.
😮
ONR V5 vs. P&S absolute
forbidden coffee
Indeed, if traffic film did not exist and cars were only ever slightly dusty, ONR would be king. Unfortunatley ONR does jack squat to any kind of actual grime, and is basically just a different type of quick detailer.
ONR has been proven in the real world for more than a decade and is in use by Pro detailers all over the world on some of the dirtiest cars imaginable, but thanks for your comment.
@@opticarcare I don't hate onr, I use it for certain tasks. The fact remains that it isn't gonna remove dirt that isn't water soluble as well as soap, and especially soap that isn't ph neutral.
I appreciate your response to my comment. I hope OPT continues to have success, the more successful brands out there the better it is for consumers.
Sorcery!
It looks impressive but only because I don't know what the BRAND X is 🤔🤔... Is it really rinsless product? 🤔🤔🤔... Why hide it??? 🤔🤔 If your product is impressive then don't hide the completion you claim to compare it to. 😉
Brand X paper cover over the label sure isn't see through 😂 We all know what it is.
nice job "hiding" what brand x is 😂😂
Okay they should’ve at least got another bottle or made it where you couldn’t see the absolute label through the white label 😅
As expected
How is this evidence? How does this video show or proof "encapsulation"?
@@AndreasSchwarzinger because it surrounds the dirt and drags it to the bottom. Maybe Dr. G can explain it better.

Pretty damming evidence for absolute Rinseless Wash. 😂
wut?
Thwre are others that show the other way around ...dont trust anybody who can make a buck. Onr or the detailers on youtube. Uss it yourself. If yoire happy, stay happy and dont waste time with these things. It's as important and life changing as bron vs mj
If I was the Rag Company I wouldn’t sell ONR since they dogged Absolute
They also sell ONR.
