Met up with Colby PracTTical last night for dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings, and then when we were playing with his new roadster, an old guy with a wife and child in the new TT pulled and chatted for a bit. It was great to meet a fellow enthusiast.

Optimum No Rinse = a load of ****. Find a self-serve car wash near you.

Find a friend and use their driveway and hose. You provide the car wash supplies.

Don't even think about it any further! Try one of the suggestions below.

Default 2nd, i've used it first hand. "a load of isht"? ...it takes loads of BIRD isht off your car

its pretty damn good...post PC detail too, no more swirls than before

no light gun or paint meter used afterwards, but repeated use shows no visual eyeball'd changes

Default Any product that is used to wash a dirty car with NO WATER is going to scratch.

Maybe used as a quick detailer or lub when using a clay bar it works fine. But for washing your car!?!?!? If your detailer uses this product instead of washing cars with water he's mad.
