What to use to clean fingerprints from the Cybertrucks stainless steel?

[@OQDetailing]

The products that work are linked in the description part of the video if you are interested in getting them. Thank you!

[@UnboundCali]

Thanks for the tips. I used your link.✌️😎

[@OQDetailing]

My pleasure! I hope it works as well for you as it did for me & thank you!

[@ty-le5lv]

Wow! You read my mind! I have been wondering about all these finger prints people constantly put on my cyber truck😂😂

[@OQDetailing]

😂 well now you can keep a bottle of the rinseless ONR and just tell them they can see it but not touch it 😅

[@anthonyrazo1351]

You’ve done it again OQ! Great job 👏🏼

[@OQDetailing]

Thank you for the support!

[@lariosbm]

Wow, this is amazing for future clients and detailers needing pointers for cleaning the cyber trucks. Good looking out for the detailing community. Good job 💪🏼 OQ 🥳

[@OQDetailing]

Yes exactly, we always strive to provide value through our content, thank you once again!

[@jorgeq5921]

Very interesting results, gives insight into the potential best solution. The ceramic coating that you mentioned, will be interesting to see its performance!

[@OQDetailing]

Great point!

[@KetoLifestyleRecipes]

What is your dilution ratio on the Optimum No Rinse that you are spraying on the stainless steel? Also would the same delusion work on the inside windows? Thanks, I’m going to give it a go

[@OQDetailing]

The lowest dilution ratio would be 256 to 1 which is basically 1oz, per one gallon However if you do 128 to 1 all the way to 32/1 it would also work great and in some cases better and yes it would also work on glass.

[@Dallasrebar]

Awesome and fair comparison. The only thing I would have done differently is to let the products sit for a minute so they can do their job.

[@OQDetailing]

@@Dallasrebar thanks for watching & the feedback! Yea that’s a fair and good point. After the making of this video and gathering more info, others have suggested the following has worked for them - white vinegar diluted with water - Koch chemie glass cleaner - Windex For me a rinseless wash solution is still the most effective and economical solution but feel free to try many different methods 👍🏻

[@eggthor]

Hi. I purchased Optimum No Rinse Wash & Shine based on this video. What is the concentrate to water ratio concentration? I went per the bottle and still looks light compared to the video. It is also not giving me better results than invisible glass cleaner. Maybe I need to add more concentrate, but looking to get some guidance. Thanks.

[@OQDetailing]

Hello! Sorry to hear that. It’s 1oz per 1 gallon of water. Yea Im sure my little bottle had a little bit higher concentration since I just eye 👁️ it and don’t measure 📐 it exactly now a days. You can try adding a little more also and see the outcome, I hope it works for you as it worked for me. Another thing to keep in mind is if you are using it in direct sunlight that could be a factor that could affect it, but in my experience it doesn’t really; just thinking of all the possibilities.

[@cryptoskillz]

What would you recommend for coatings on a matte black PPF

[@matthewd6269]

Bro did you try alcohol and water 1:1 that’s what they were using at the tesla dealership when i got mine

[@OQDetailing]

Yea that’s essentially what the first product carpro eraser is. It removes some of it off but not completely. I hope it works for you, but I think you will reach the same conclusion.

[@matthewd6269]

Yea pretty much just got some of the fingerprints but in the right light you can still see them

[@OQDetailing]

@@matthewd6269 yea that’s why I prefer the Optimum no rinse because it worked better in my testing

[@stevemartin6776]

What is the difference between waterless and no rinse?

[@OQDetailing]

@@stevemartin6776 Great question 🙋🏻‍♂️ It can be confusing since they are somewhat similar but they have different chemical blends to achieve a similar purpose. Waterless wash basically uses no water other then the one in the bottle or product being used, so you basically just have a bottle of waterless wash and spray and then wipe and that’s it. Rinseless wash does use more water in a bucket 🪣 and you can also add it to a sprayer bottle as you see me using in the video. Rinseless YOU CAN use water when washing, it just means that when you’re done washing the vehicle you don’t necessarily need to “rinse” the vehicle from the cleaning solution and you can go right into drying, hence you “rinse, less” compared to a traditional wash with soap and water. A traditional wash after you clean the vehicle with your soap you would need to rinse 🚿 it off before drying it. To not confuse you however, in this video I use rinseless wash, the way a waterless wash is supposed to be used but the chemical formulation between both of them can differ from brand to brand, and I dont necessarily recommend waterless wash for the Cybertruck I recommend rinseless , although if waterless is all you have then go ahead and try it and use and hope it works well!

[@stevemartin6776]

@@OQDetailing thank you for that! I just got my truck seven days ago and it’s so dirty right from the Tesla lot and there’s so much information and it’s all overlapping !!

[@OQDetailing]

@@stevemartin6776 oh nice! Congratulations 🥳 Yea there’s a lot of mixed information all over the internet unfortunately, it can be confusing. I have a lot of videos on the Cybertruck to help clarify things and feel free to ask questions. Where are you located?

saved this vid for when I finally own my CT

[@OQDetailing]

Hope you get it soon 👍🏻🤝

[@chrisjones903]

i tested this on my CT and the solution suggested is not working for me i tried multiple times different solution mixtures it streaked everywhere and left a coating that would not come off. Windex removed it with no issues though? any suggestions on what i am doing wrong

[@OQDetailing]

Hmm 🤔 interesting. Thanks for sharing, and I’m sorry it didn’t have the same results we had so far. Let’s go over a couple things to make sure 1. First is it the exact same solution? (Optimum No Rinse Rinseless wash) There are other brands and even the same brand produces a similar solution that has wax in it. The one you need is a blue color like you saw in the video and not a lime green which is their wax one 2. Using a clean microfiber 3. Spray first, clean the area, turn the rag over and buff off with a new dry side 4. Do it out of direct sunlight As you saw in the video it worked perfectly for us. We ended trying windex on the opposite side and it ended working the same even though at first it didn’t, which was very weird to us because on the passenger panels we showcased it left a tiny amount of residue from the hand oils but not on the other side Try this Let me know if that works

[@chrisjones903]

ok maybe teh direct sunlight is an issue its cloudy here not humid but cloudy yeah seems like some of the panels react differently to the same solution. i tried mine on back tailgate @@OQDetailing

[@philesq]

What's the difference between the blue and the new formula green Optimum No Rinse Wash and Shine?

[@philesq]

I just saw that the new green apparently has carnauba wax. Should I avoid that with the cybertruck?

[@OQDetailing]

@@philesq both have been around for a while but yes I would avoid that one for the Cybertruck. However if you already have it, perhaps you can do a test spot and see how it reacts to it, maybe it can work.

[@Outrunner85]

Great video, thanks!

[@OQDetailing]

Glad you liked it!

[@brandongordon5684]

Perhaps a clear translucent PPF film just to never have fingerprints ?

[@OQDetailing]

Yup you could do that, Not everyone is willing to pay for it though

[@DOUGMAC]

I find using a stainless steel cleaner works the best. Ya know the one you use for the stainless steel refrigerator? 😂

[@OQDetailing]

@@DOUGMAC 👍🏻

[@naimiles]

Bar Keepers Friend and white vinegar works best for me

[@OQDetailing]

Yea bar keepers friend in general works great, I like your combo and glad it’s working for you

[@dnzgnhz]

I have a secret formula for cleaning stainless steel

[@OQDetailing]

👍🏻

[@rydomo]

There was barely even a handprint for the rinseless wash

[@OQDetailing]

Handprints were applied with the same intensity, feel free to do your own testing 👍🏻

[@johnnylafata5489]

Vinegar 1/2 water 1/2 Vinegar

[@PRESTIGEOUSNESS]

They tried so hard to make this thing cool. Even how they wrote and spelled “cybertruk” is cringey. 🥴🤣

[@OQDetailing]

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder” Crocs are hideous and it’s cringy when people wear them out in public instead of just their house but yet millions of people wear them Everyone is entitled to their own opinion 👍🏻

[@chrisBassett-m4g]

Best thing to do is keep the fingerprints and pitch the truck. Ugliest truck i have ever seen.

You do as you see fit 👍🏻
