    shampoo plus is also a great soap..it does break down quick, however super soap breaks down insanely fast. thats why i am using it for my winter washes.

    great idea.

    I am a Michigander and ordered some ONR this week. Got it yesterday and tried it today. I went to the coin-op only because its heated. I filled my sprayer up at home with warm water and ONR mixed in for a presoak. Then bought two 2 gal. gas cans and filled those with warm water.

    Brought my buckets, poured in the ONR water from the gas cans. Presoaked the car with the sprayer and viola!

    I do like your idea mazda guy.
    thank you..it works great for me

      I used ONR for the first time today. Amazing stuff! It's hard to believe I hand washed a car in December.

        Your idea of using your pressurized sprayer looks good.

        I was very skeptical at first about using onr. But due to sme severe water restrictions this past year, I tried it. Now, I am a firm believer in the product. Great way to wash your vehicle.

        Glad the sprayer worked for you.

            Man...I need to order some ONR on my next ADS order.

            Those who use it, do you apply it outside or in the garage? I guess if you wash one panel at a time and wipe down, water on the garage floor would be minimized.

            Definitely need to gives this product a try.

              I use it indoors. Yeah, I got some water on the floor but if your garage is insulated it will be dry in a few hours. I had no problems.

                My rinseless washing is done in my garage, summer and winter.
                In the winter, the temperature is the biggest reason for needing to be inside, but.... Washing inside in the summer lets me do it at my convenience regardless of the weather.
                I used to have to wash at 6 AM or after 7 PM to keep out of the sun at my house.
                With rinseless washing, I can be in the shade anytime.
                No worries about windy/dusty conditions or bird **** about the time you finish.
                When I know nice weather is forecast, I sometimes even wash in the garage when it is raining. When the weather turns nice, the car is clean and ready to go.
                As far as water on the floor, I doubt that I have much more than a cup or two after doing the body panels. Doing the wheels, tires, and wheel wells puts more water on the floor than doing all the rest of the car.
                Something I am experimenting with is using a waterless wash product on the tires, wheels, wheel wells after doing the rest of the vehicle with a rinseless product. Seems to have some merit, but I have only tried it a few times and haven't decided how much I like doing it that way.

                Not everyone will agree, but for me, waterless wash products work good on vehicles that aren't terribly dirty. One thing about waterless washing, you don't get any water on the floor.

                  I generally use it inside the garage. But a couple times I have used it outside. As long as your in shade it works fine.
