​@@diydetailofficial I was washing my car using the GDWM and while washing the lower panels I dropped my Eagle Edgeless towel. If I put it into my bucket of ONR will all the dirt drop to the bottom or is the towel now for door jambs or tires?

[@diydetailofficial]

Put it through the washing machine and inspect it after. From there make your decision.

[@corrybowers5078]

Hey Ivan, another Rinseless wash product you’ve done a video on can be used as a panel prep before coating, can DIY be used as one? I’d assume yes as it leaves nothing behind.

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes, but at the required ratio, it’s more economical to use a dedicated panel prep.

I can’t wait to show my Dad rinseless wash! He s not a power washer guy. He enjoys the bucket the sponge the old school wash. As he gets older he does use car washes but still gets out there and hand washes on nice days and hand waxes (I did covert him to sealants). Especially nice day in winter I think he s really going to love this process! I know what he’s getting for Christmas!

Honestly, I could not see a justification for buying this rinse-less wash, but this video has totally convinced me. The explanation of the science involved with this product-which effectively differentiates it from other rinseless washes-is precisely what has convinced me. As a direct result, I will surely add this product to my lineup in addition to McKee’s 37 graphene rinseless wash which I’ve already bought a lot of. QUESTIONS: 1. Does DIY rinseless wash leave any protection behind on the paint? 2. Is a drying aide necessary when using DIY’s rinseless wash? Thanks for an informative and winsome video!

I am a weekend warrior, nothing professional. Recently I have tried my first rinseless experience and changes some steps to make it enjoyable. (I get both worlds, snowfoam satisfaction and the safety from rinseless.) I start by using pressure washer, foam cannon and all the brushes for the wheels. Then I snowfoam the whole car and use detailing brushes for all the cracks and gaps. (I felt extra safe and also don’t wanna waste all the money that I have spent on the gear lol) Then I rinse the snowfoam off, and use the pump sprayer to apply rinseless solution. Follow by contact washing the vehicle with ultra black sponge and 1 bucket method. However I will rinse the car off one more time as my OCD kicks in when seeing some dirt remaining on the paint. Then I dry the whole vehicle with an ego blower. (My vehicle is graphene coated, that’s why I don’t apply any additional protection as I also want to test out the real world durability.) At the end finish it off with tyre shine. Side benefit, I found that with the rinseless solution, I don’t have to deal with suds all over my hand, and I don’t have to wash 2 buckets with suds. Also I don’t have to wash muliple mitts and dry towel/ microfibre towel after the wash.

[@diydetailofficial]

Nice process.

[@richardsalinetrojr1957]

I'm an old-school detailer that still does 3 step-buffing procedures and whatnot. that's what I learned and that's what I feel most comfortable with to this day. in my defense, though I haven't tried any of the newer tech that's out for detailing other than ceramic coatings. hell I still use a Makita 9227C buffer and a heavy white wool pad for everything from compound to final polish. Lol. I used to be a guy who hated trying to buff out a vehicle right after leaving wash bay because I was always fighting against water dripping from everywhere. I learned years ago that if you walk around with an air line and blow out all cracks, seams, and all panels as you're drying off a vehicle you don't get all those drips coming out as your buffing. One question I have, do you use your Gold Standard Polish as a compound with wool pads (for heavier scratches and whatnot) and also use it as a glaze with the foam as a swirl remover/final polish? don't do detailing anymore except on the side for friends and family but would be nice to start cutting out some steps especially if I'll end up with similar and/or better results.

[@diydetailofficial]

Yep! It's pad dependent, so you can get heavy cut with a rotary and wool, and it finishes down very nicely with a foam pad

[@05xrunner]

I used it yesterday for the first time washing my camaro. I tagged you in Instagram of it. I pre treat the car with the rinseless with every brand I use. When I went to clean the wheels. I pre treated it with the DIY rinseless before I foamed the wheels to give them an actual wash with the pump sprayer. I had a black puddle on the floor as it was pulling down all the brake dust on the wheels. Yes the wheels are coated but it still pulled alot of the dirt off the wheels and onto the floor where it made it much safer. If you add gallons I will be in for one of those.

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you, we will have gallons in October!

[@rvnuts6363]

If you want to see rinseless really do its thing, wash your side x side with it after a run in the desert . We winter in AZ, and I just started with the rinseless this year and all I can say is WOW!! We wash in full sun (unfortunately) and the lack of water spotting and the way it lifts the dust off is incredible. I use it to wash my fifth wheel and truck which saves me a bunch of money compared to hiring a wash service to do the fifth wheel and taking the truck to a car wash. I think you need to pitch it to the RV community a lot harder as it certainly is the way to wash these big rigs without water spotting. The combination of rinseless and ceramic gloss make it an enjoyable task that I now look forward to instead of dreading it.

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you!

Love the format of the video. Because of Yvan I’m converting to the efficiency of the rinseless wash. I leave in Canada in the country on a gravel road. My vehicles get really dirty and muddy on the lower panels and wheel wells. I foam the dirty sections then spray the rinseless solution on the whole vehicle and do the rinseless wash. Follow up with a drying aid. Fun and efficient. Keep up the great work guys.

I'm a bit nerdy about this detailing-thing (aren't we all?😊) I tried Absolute from P&S on a typically winter-muddy-car here in Norway. It was covered with road salt and other funny stuff. I was pretty amazed over how well the pre-soak worked. The dirt was "gliding" around the surface and came so easily off with a pressure washer. I read from the comments that DIY-detail rinseless maybe is even more powerful? If that's the case, I think it's awesome!! So two questions: Any chance your products will be available in Norway? Are there any specific type of dirt/grime that a rinseless pre-soak won't break down as efficient as an alkaline pre-foam (which is the most typical winter wash process here in Norway, and Sweden for that matter)?

[@diydetailofficial]

We are working with possible distributors, please ask your favourite distributor for DIY Detail. DIY Detail Rinseless Wash pré-soak will remove most of what the roads can throw on a car.

[@EM-Auto]

Hi Yvan/Nick, First of all, I love your rinseless wash product. If the rinseless/water mixture that was used to clean a car did not become too dirty, is it possible to keep this mixture to clean another car, even if that next car is not going to be cleaned until a few days later? How long is it possible to keep this mixture in the bucket and does it need to be sealed with a cap or bucket lid?

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes it’s possible, biologicals removed from the paint will determine how long you can keep it. If it starts smelling odd, time to say goodbye.

[@skrsys]

What is the ratio you should use if you’re putting it in a foam cannon?

[@diydetailofficial]

it will work at 256:1, but 32:1 is about what you want for proper foam. You can use more product if you'd like more foam, but regardless it will still work. Remember it works great at 256:1 :)

Been mobile detailing for 4 years now here in so cal and still can’t get on the rinseless train. I love Bilt Hamber auto shampoo and it’s 1:2,000 so very economical. I do a foam bath of either CarPro Lift or BH Touchless prior. I’ve always done one bucket method with two towels. I just got a separate bucket with a gamma lid and a UBS & a BRS to see which I prefer or to have two if I have help that day. Rinseless can handle traffic film but tree sap & baked on bugs…takes to much scrubbing to remove via sponge. The degreasing of soap just seems so advantageous. I do want to get on board with full time rinse-less but I’m hard to break😅 Love what you guys are doing, I’m certain the products perform as advertised.

Correct, and DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss makes a better quick detailer spray, as it provides protection at the same time.

[@olds3945]

I’ve always wondered how a rinseless can emulsify the whole panel if it beads up as soon as it touches the panel. It’s the reason I always wanted to foam them. Used this last night in a bucket, foolproof product with a “clear” shine. Recommended!

Absolutely! Just keep it one ounce of rinseless wash to 2 gallons of water. If you WANT…and you had a foam sprayer…you could dilute heavily and actually get foam as a rinseless pre treat which feels VERY slick and is a lot of fun

Thanks for informative video. What is the recommended dilution ratio in a foaming pump sprayer like the iK?

[@diydetailofficial]

If you would like to foam our Rinseless (it’s more fun 🤩) you can use the foaming dilution ratio on the bottle of 4 ounces in your foam cannon or ik sprayer. Maybe try 3 and see how you like it to save a bit of product. It will still foam for you and you can find the perfect amount that fits your needs … but foaming is an amazing way to pre spray for rinseless at the proper dilution because it cleans so well and offers a ton of lubricity

Rinseless is the way to go. Bottom line is the car will need a clean up every year or two anyway with a light polish. (Daily drivers) That’s even if no scratches were inflicted.

If I use this as a drying aid, you said that it has polymers, will it affect my wax, sealant or coatings hydrophobic at all?

No it will not change anything about the surface other than clean it. Many people misunderstand the term polymers. Polymers are found in just about everything, including DIY Detail Rinseless Wash. A polymer is simply a substance that has a molecular structure consisting chiefly or entirely of a large number of similar units bonded together.

Most rinseless will work, but this one is drama proof. Top shelf!

Thank you

will you be selling products in Canada??

We already do, at the moment they are available from Carzilla.ca

Another good watch but I have to admit I have never used a rinse less wash although I have a bottle of ONR and a bottle from Mitchell and King but after watching this you may!! have convinced me to try it. Good Job.

Thank you, please report back to let us know how it went for you.

I rinseless wash 90% of the time. My biggest frustration though is how to handle a vehicle that has- say a gloss black honeycomb grille, diffuser etc...I guess that's where degreasers/apc come in and would add time/steps to the process. A video on this with a car that has a lot of complexities and nuances would be great.

[@diydetailofficial]

A flag tipped nylon brush is your friend in that case.

Get a flag nylon brush, you won’t regret it, Ivan used on on Pan’s car without a problem.

Mayonnaise is basically eggs, mustard, either vinegar or lemon juice, and oil (with salt and some other seasonings). Hope you maybe look into adding something that will leave behind some protection, along the lines of Opticlean or McKee’s Graphene Rinseless Wash.

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you, yes we were missing the acid in the mix. We have many more products on the way, thanks for the suggestion!

[@jeffc6832]

Very interesting, and it makes me want even more details. I'm terrible at chemistry, but I'm very interested in how products are created and how/why certain aspects are chosen for a particular product. I don't care about formulas, ingredients or any trade secrets...but I would love to learn more about how products are created. A few years ago Matt Moreman did a video with Bob Phillips from P&S, and it was fascinating. I'd love to learn more about your process (at least what you can share publicly). I've tried virtually every rinseless on the market, and ONR has always been the gold standard for my needs. P&S Absolute has now earned a permanent spot in my cabinet alongside ONR...and thanks to this video I will definitely be picking up DIY RInseless Wash as well to see how it compares. I'm 99% rinseless in my processes, but I still use my pressure washer whenever possible. The idea of foaming on DIY Rinseless before pressure washing is very intriguing. I appreciate that you guys don't bash other brands, or say that your "Product X" is better than another company's "Product Y". There is room at the table for everyone, and having more good choices shouldn't be a bad thing. The Rag Company guys had a great analogy recently about detailing products and donuts (sorry Yvan...I know you try to stay away from the sweets). There are tons of different kinds of donuts, and all of them are great (because they are donuts). Sometimes you want a glazed old fashioned, sometimes you want a maple bar, other days you may want a frosting filled Bismarck. Bottom line...I'm glad to have another great line of products to choose from. Keep up the great work guys. EDIT: Quick question, does your rinseless wash "soften" hard water (prevent it from etching the paint if it dries on the surface?). That is a problem that I had with mirror/trim drips after washing with N914.

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you, we will be diving deeper into product development in the future. Yes it does work to mitigate water spotting.

[@havingtoomuchfun4806]

You will not regret buying DIY Rinseless Wash . It’s slick under the sponge, but doesn’t leave behind anything on the paint.

[@diydetailofficial]

@@havingtoomuchfun4806 thank you, that’s a very common observation.

[@miscellaneous5215]

Nice technical discussion I like it. How does this work though? You hire a chemist and purchase raw materials from company xyz and formulate your own products? I'm asking because there are a million relabeled products out there, many using the same blenders.

[@diydetailofficial]

Correct, we started by hiring a chemist ( he’s been in the industry 30 years as a contract chemist for many companies). Once our formulas decided upon we searched out chemical companies that had the competencies to make the formula in question. Yvan has been on the manufacturing side of the industry for over 30 years, so he has many contacts. Even the biggest companies in the industry do not mix all the products they sell, using specialty companies to make different formulas.

[@miscellaneous5215]

[@tafl-9198]

I am getting tired of all the pseudo-science surrounding these rinseless washes… It seems like no matter the properties of the rinseless wash you always manage to just alter your explanation so that it sounds good. - In one video soap is bad because the surfactants can stay on the paint like a film that attracts dirt and all RWs with surfactants are just “soaps”. In the next video you are promoting a RW with surfactants. - In one video the ability to draq dirt to the bottom of bucket is important, in the next it is not anymore. Yes, grains of sand has always gone to the bottom by itself. Its called gravity and that happens in a bucket of soap as well. - In one video no polymers are left behind on the vehicle. In the next polymers are left behind making the next wash easier.

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes, things change over time, technology evolves and gets better. Thank you for your comments.

[@miguelm39]

⁠​⁠@@diydetailofficial​​⁠I agree with tafl. Ivan is good at marketing but he says contradicting things depending on what he’s pushing. From the various videos I’ve seen from Ivan, he can’t be trusted as reliable source for auto detailing. The only thing you can trust is that he’ll jump ship to whatever makes him more money. A recent example is when we says DIY rinseless is so powerful at the 256:1 ratio that it can clean a very dirty interior. But then says that a damp polishing bad with 256:1 has practically no impact. Can’t use the excuse that “technology evolves and gets better” here. He’s a pancake, flip-flopping as he sees fit.
