Optimum No Rinse Wash & Shine

[TundraSoul]

Optimum "No Rinse" Wash & Shine is a new product from Optimum Polymer Technologies. The company is known for it's fine detailing products, which include some high-end polishes and compounds.

The product claims to be a "No-Rinse" wash liquid that you add to a bucket of water to wipe down any type of vehicle A couple of cap fulls from the 32oz bottle into two gallons of clean water is all you need for any large car or truck. Soak a microfiber towel in the water, ring out, and simply wipe down your vehicle.

In your other hand keep a microfiber towel to polish off any water that remains on the finish. I found most of the water would dry pretty quickly as I was wiping down the truck. In the end the truck needed little or no polishing at all and I was finished in about 10 minutes. "No Rinse" works on painted surfaces, glass, chrome, plastic, everything without any spotting or residue. You will have to polish off the harder surfaces like glass and chrome with a dry microfiber towel.

This is really nice product largely because it conditioned my poor quality water and easily removed the daily dust build up from my truck. This would be an ideal replacement for the daily duster because it's more effective and does a better job than any duster can. Dry dusters do poorly on glass and hard plastic surfaces, whereas "No Rinse" cleans these surfaces with no problems.

No Rinse also makes a nice quick detailer. Put a cap full in a spray bottle with water to do your daily wipe down and toss the dry duster in the trash. Five stars to Optimum's "No Rinse" Wash & Shine, it's a product that will remain on my shelf.

I live on this stuff. It's great for when you've spent 10hrs on the big detail, and drove it for a weekend, then come home and ONR it and voila', all clean lol.

It's great stuff, everyone should try it.

I used it again today for a quick 10 minute wipe down and still have no complaints. I found if you follow it with some FK-1 quick detailer your finish is as slick as a freshly waxed truck. FK-1 is great at keeping the dust from sticking to the sides of the truck.

Yeah, FK-425 is some awesome stuff. Definatly the best dust repelling QD out there. I use it all year, although mostly during pollen season.

autogeek.net is probably my favorite detailing supply site. However FK425 is over at fk1usa.com. I order FK425 by the gallon now.

I've been doing this daily detailing routine for 3 days now and hardly have any dust build-up from sitting over night.
