These rinseless products have been around for a while but I was sceptical about them. A friend recommended this Wolfgang stuff. Today I tried it for the first time. I'm blown away. I'm not much of a detailing guy. I like the results but I hate the process. This was simple and easy. The results are excellent. The car wasn't that dirty but it did have a thin layer of dust/dirt all over along with some bugs and tar on the front and lower half. I did spray some bug and tar remover on those spots that I rinsed before using the Wolfgang stuff. The pictures don't do it justice at all. The finish it leaves feels like the car has been waxed and polished. Super smooth and slick. Very shiny. It does require lots of microfiber cloths.

How is it applied?

You add 1 ounce to 2 gallons of water in a bucket. You then soak your microfiber towels in the bucket. Partially wring out the solution then wipe down a panel. Then get a dry towel and dry/polish it. Then just repeat for each panel. You fold the towels in half twice so you can keep going to a fresh surface, same for drying/polishing. It does the glass too.

Sounds good. I'll have to check it out. Very nice TA!

My photography sucks and it's hard to get white paint to show reflections very well. Those pictures in the full sun aren't very good at showing the finish. Yesterday evening I took some closer pics in better lighting. The reflections in the pain are mainly from trees. I think it has a cumulative effect so I'm going to do it again this morning to see if it gets any better.

Looks good!

Yeah, I thought so. I'm not opposed to spraying water on my car or anything like that. But, this seems like it was faster and easier than a traditional wash. Maybe not a huge difference but something. But, the finish is the thing. It cleans very well for a light to moderately dirty car and it's super shiny and smooth when done.

Water goes everywhere, so a rinseless cleaner that doesn't damage/protects the paint is a time saver.

I'm always skeptical though...

One other nice thing about it is that depending on your shop situation, you can do it inside a shop or garage. Even if you're totally careless, only a very small amount of water runs off the car. Very little at all actually. When I mix up 2 gallons, I had maybe a little less than half left when done. So just over a gallon for the whole car. But again, that's for a car that is not very dirty. I would not use this for my daily driver. That just goes through the car wash...
