It takes some getting used to. When we started using it there were no foaming rinseless washes on the market. So we felt like we were washing with water lol. Now there are foaming ones that help with the transition.
I appreciate your info and honesty about the process. I know that you know what you are talking about. 😊 Not all TH-cam videos are like that. Keep up the good work!
For me it's the fact that it allows me to wash inside the garage (instead of under the sun), then it is its own drying aid and the cherry on top it allows me to see more clearly the black tar stubborn spots, or bugs on front bumper that I need to go back a hit with a spray bottle with more rinseless wash at a QD dilution ratio. MANY extra steps eliminated here vs a traditional wash, however, I'll do a traditional wash with pressure washer if it's been weeks since last wash and it's very very dirty
Man, I didn't notice this video and we both do the same steps with Rinseless on wheels and tires. I also use water-based tire shine and those customers that want the tires coated I use the Dura-Coating tire coating which lasts a year.
Foam applicators are nice. They do great on car tires or tires that don't have an aggressive side wall. We usually default to the brush, because we see a lot of trucks and large SUVs. Edit: if you have an aggressive side wall the foam applicators may struggle to get into all the grooves. Whereas the bristles on a brush work into the grooves easier.
We have a microfiber detergent (something like rags to riches) that we wash the towels in with warm water. The towels may still have some staining but the dirt will be gone. These are towels that will go back on the engine bay and wheels.
For those rags that get really trashed I keep a 5 gallon bucket with a little detergent and a few scoops of oxyclean. I throw them in there like on a Friday and wash them on a Sunday. Works like a charm, even on rags I use while wrenching on the car. My dozen or so “dirty rag” stack always looks good and I don’t have to throw them out.
The tire brush works great too. We have an oddly excessive amount of those yellow towels, so it works for us. Typically they're used and only good for the really dirty jobs. Thank you for watching! Is there a video you'd like to see next?

Great video, thanks for sharing. Which rinseless do you generally use?
Great question! I'll assume that you understand the pH scale in terms of acid, alkaline, and neutral (if not I'm happy to explain). To neutralize an acid you need to post treat with an alkaline. Likewise, to neutralize an alkaline you need to post treat with an acid. This is a big discussion when it comes to stain treatments in car interiors, homes, and commercial use. Rinsing off either acid or alkaline cleaner with water doesn't neutralize the surface it was applied to. Instead, it dilutes it. In my method of using a soap-based alkaline cleaner I'm not creating damage or an adverse situation. This technique I learned from Billy with American Dealer Garage F-Bomb. You can still rinse the cleaner off if you want, but it's not necessarily needed with this type of product.
We have done it before with no issues but we can’t guarantee that across all brands. Personally I wouldn’t recommend spraying it on a hot panel or in direct sunlight.
Nothing to our knowledge. The best thing to do in my experience is to ceramic coat them to make them easier to clean. Sometimes the type of brakes will cause excessive brake dust. What kind of car are you inquiring about?
We have a washing machine in our shop to wash towels. This specific type of towel I'd wash separately from the rest. If they're really dirty, I'd throw them away or demote them to oil changes or some dirty job before trashing them
I apologize that there is no materials list. I can compile it for you if you'd like. I just mention the type of products I'm using and encourage detailers to use their favorite brand.
It takes getting used to, but these products work safely. When I started using Rinseless washes there were none that foamed. Now there are some that do. There's an older video on TH-cam of an interview with Meguiars and Matt from Obsessed Garage. It was discussed that the only purpose of the foam was to see where you have & haven't washed yet. The technology has always been there to make soaps without suds/foam. But suds/foam sells and we all love thick luscious foam, especially in TH-cam videos. It's also well known that suds are mostly just air. After intense research, emails, and personal testing, rinseless wash works best in our business. Thank you for watching and for your comment. I hope this video was informative.
@@ocdetailingncfoam cannon is fun for some people, but rinseless is way more time efficient and safer as it's its own drying aid, even when people uses soaps with great lubricity, they end up rinsing with hard water and then dragging a towel all over the paint without using any drying aid. Even when I do traditional washes I'll use something like Formula 4 Spray Wax or ONR at 1:16 dilution ratio as drying aid, but it's just a lot of extra steps vs rinseless
Great tutorial on Rinceless washing your wheels and tires. Id have to say this one of the Top videos for Rinceless!😉
Thank you for watching, and I'm glad that this video has helped! Is there a video that you'd like for us to make next?
Thank you for your time and effort. Very nice tutorial I did mines a certain way. But I will try this technique.
Let me know how it goes. If there's a specific video or topic you'd like for me to cover, please let me know. Happy detailing!
This was really helpful. Thank you! I'm trying to convert over to Rinseless washing in my business.

Man, I love rinse-less washing. It made my business very efficient and profitable when I converted to rinse-less from soap washes.
We made the switch to rinseless about 5 years ago, and it made our detailing department function more smoothly and efficiently.

Nice !
Thanks Chris! I love the vids you should upload more :)
Thanks, will do! Cheers 🍻
Wudder! The ChrisFix of detailing!
Thanks for watching the channel!
Yooo this is great. Thank you for showing how to do this. 🙏 I'm going to try it this weekend on my girlfriend's car.
You're welcome Quindarious! Happy wife happy life!
I normally use a foam applicator for tire shine. Are there any pro's or con's to using the foam applicators? Great video!
Foam applicators are nice. They do great on car tires or tires that don't have an aggressive side wall. We usually default to the brush, because we see a lot of trucks and large SUVs.

How do you wash/maintain this towel? Is it possible to bring this towel back and remove all dirt?
We have a microfiber detergent (something like rags to riches) that we wash the towels in with warm water. The towels may still have some staining but the dirt will be gone. These are towels that will go back on the engine bay and wheels.
For those rags that get really trashed I keep a 5 gallon bucket with a little detergent and a few scoops of oxyclean. I throw them in there like on a Friday and wash them on a Sunday. Works like a charm, even on rags I use while wrenching on the car. My dozen or so “dirty rag” stack always looks good and I don’t have to throw them out.
i do something similar but i use a tire brush. Expensive using towels...
The tire brush works great too. We have an oddly excessive amount of those yellow towels, so it works for us. Typically they're used and only good for the really dirty jobs. Thank you for watching! Is there a video you'd like to see next?

In this video we are using DIY Rinseless, but don't get caught up in the brands just find one that works for you :)
Is that a Dave barker detail keg??
Yes. I've had it for about 3-4 years now. It's been great!
Hey bud, i wonder what exactly u mean by that apc to just whipe it off? Doesnt you need to neutralize it with water? Thanks for your videos man

Does the water based tire shine actually dry on its own or do you have to come back and knock it down with a microfiber towel?
The water-based dressings I've tried have all self-leveled and dried on their own.
@@ocdetailingnc thanks for the response!
What chemical did you use on the tire?
That's a secret for another day
Can iron remover be used on clear PPF with no issues?
We have done it before with no issues but we can’t guarantee that across all brands. Personally I wouldn’t recommend spraying it on a hot panel or in direct sunlight.
@@ocdetailingnc it's xpel, clear PPF , whole car is wrapped. Experience with xpel and iron remover?
@@sagirius It should be fine but I wouldn't say to use iron remover unless you see absolutely necessary
is there anything that works to repel brake dust off wheels?
Nothing to our knowledge. The best thing to do in my experience is to ceramic coat them to make them easier to clean. Sometimes the type of brakes will cause excessive brake dust. What kind of car are you inquiring about?
120psi? Where did you get a keg lid that allows you to go that high?
Detail Kegs. We usually only pressurize them to 100psi or less. But we were told by the manufacturer that these are capable of 120psi.
What process do you do to clean that towel after you take off all that tire dirt?
We have a washing machine in our shop to wash towels. This specific type of towel I'd wash separately from the rest. If they're really dirty, I'd throw them away or demote them to oil changes or some dirty job before trashing them
