Optimum Car Wash

I think the future is for No Rinse wash.

I just ordered some today. Had to wash it conventionally today though. It just so happened that it was in the low 50s today.

Works great for those of us in below freezing weather. Doesn't require a lot of water and can easily be done in the garage. And it does the trick!

I'm going to try this stuff out as well but if you have salt on your car STILL RINSE before using this. Heavy dirt and salt will scratch the paint even with this.

yes wash off the pepper too,but it's good stuff, no water spots anywhere and you can do use this No-Rinse any time/any where, It's like dry cleaning you expensive Silk Suits)

Thumbs up Two bucket method

I use the 2.2 bucket method. I fill up two five gallon buckets to try and limit contamination. Out of that I also fill a small bottle with a sprayer. I then "pre-soak" the section that I am going to clean. Even with HEAVY salt, it leaves NO scratches. Then go over one more time with a quick detailer and it looks beautiful!!

PS: I have been using this for just about one year (during winters) after learning about it on this site from Blackjack.
