Best Rinseless Wash User Experience Testing

Jon, You end your videos with a word, I believe you say “Duke.” What is that?

Yvan says the reason why their RW says shine is because it deep cleans the paint revealing what shine is naturally underneath.

I honestly think that branding should not be part of this type of test, it is always a personal opinion ;)

As far as branding goes nothing will beat Koch Chemie to me. Their periodic table thing and the color coding make it absolutely amazing, but I will say that I really the Armour Detail Supply as well. I just think its super clean looking. I heard that some of the distributors are out of the frosted bottle you typically see them in, and I feel like that would drive down the points for me. As always, your content is #1 for when it comes to car detailing. Keep up the great work!

And where is Auto Finesse Rapid, new product 2024.

Hi Jon, Liking these preamble vids where you give explanations and thought processes about your big comparison tests. It keeps the actual test video to a decent length and gives us lots of background (assuming we watch all your content). I have got a rinseless wash, but only use it for spot cleaning or as a drying aid - there is no shortage of (soft) water in Scotland. 🌧️😉

Thanks Jon. I never use QR for anything, too easy to hack. I'd leave that out of scoring, just my view. Looking forward to the results.

I have used the wolfgang puck pink rinseless wash and can attest that it doesn't dye your microfiber towels pink. It leaves paint quite slick and glossy.

I quite like the Armour shield logo.

The concentrate labelling at the bottom of the DIY products is to differentiate it from the ready to use products (they say READY TO USE in the same place).

A lot of these products are not sold in your local car accessory store (Halfords, Auto Zone etc) and are made for a more pro / enthusiast customer. Because of that I'm not sure that explaining what rinse-less is, is that important, most of their customers will have done the research.

,,Vicious rinslessssss" that was amazing 😅

I think they should all protect their branding and visuals by keeping labels simple and then have a peel back label with the main/expanded details of use and health and safety etc. they seem to either try and squeeze in a half effort and not quite get everything covered or just make a very poor sparse effort

If rinseless wash technology allows polymers to 'encapsulate dirt, allowing them to be removed safely', does this not beg the question:
can we use a rinseless product as a middle stage between a prewash and a contact wash, thus eradicating the 2 bucket method along with any risk of swirling at the contact phase?

With the Carbon Collective, what if I don’t want 12L in my bucket, didn’t see the ratio on the bottle?

Koch Chemie is German for Chef Chemistry🤪

Testing could be difficult, one thing to look at could be how well dirt is released from the wash media, this I believe is a useful function.

Incredible test Jon. I'm looking forward to your analysis and ranking video to come. And a big THANK YOU SIR for your efforts. Based on all those notes and observations you have, this has to be one of the most comprehensive tests on the current market rinseless washes ever done. I have been wondering how about half of these new rinseless jobs you test here worked before I spent my own money of them. I am a huge fan of rinseless washing, although touchless is becoming one of my new favorite ways to wash as it is far easier and actually produces pretty stellar results with the right products and process. Rinseless will still always have a place in my garage, especially in wintertime when I can't use my outside faucet, although I do still have access to water via my laundry room into my garage so at least I still can use my pressure washing equipment in the winter when I need it. Rinseless is by far the new "buzz word" in detailing over the past year, like the "Graphene" word was a couple of years ago. Just about every company is coming out with a new or improved rinseless wash in order to stay up with the current detailing market. Even many professional detailers are becoming converts over to rinseless washing as it is so efficient, saving time, saving money, and saving water. I personally want a rinseless wash that cleans the best. I don't want anything else inside my rinseless wash (such as wax, sealants, etc), although I do use an Si02 infused rinseless wash on occasion if the paint is really clean already, although the Si02 in a rinseless would only provide very minimal protection. I still use a drying aid which normally is much more protective than any Si02 in the wash would be. My current drying aid of choice after my rinseless washes is Technicians Choice Ceramic spray sealant which leaves a buttery smooth finish and plenty of topper protection. Of all the new rinseless washes, I think I am most interested in the Labocosmetica three different rinseless wash for a decontamination rinseless wash. That's very interesting to me to see if they can actually perform like high and low PH soaps in the same manner as a bucket decontamination wash. That could be a game changer for some professionals that were on the fence about using a rinseless wash system in their business.

Wolfgang uber rinseless wash makes an amazing detail spray slick and glossy.

I haven't used the McKee's, but could it be the QR code is the instructions you seek? If so, in my opinion, that is reasonable. They can cover the details a lot better online then they can on the bottle. And who is in the market for a rinseless wash that doesn't have a mobile phone?

love watching your content but who cares what the bottle looks like i just care about how good it is

AutoGlym is an interesting company, after watching thier garage demonstrations, they do not wash a car the same way others do, which I found a little odd. It's almost like they are stuck in the 80's.

This is a daunting task, I've never attempted to compare any more than two at a time. Good on you Jon for putting in the work.

I think Koch Chemie doesn't advertise alternative uses for Rrw as that just goes against their nature. The Germans like one product (or sometimes multiple products) for each task/process.

I prefer DIY and N914 because they are the two that release dirt from the wash media the best. The rest do not do this quite as well to varying degrees. Cleaning dirty wheels with a rinseless really shows you the differences. I can clean BMW wheels with DIY and the wash media is clean at the end, which is insane.

I hope you weight the scoring towards the important parts of the review. For me marketing, branding etc. Is not important. We all have the benefit of reviews on the internet that would negative what's on the label.

Hey up, john,I've just bought your detailing course. Won't be long before my car is shining like a shithouse door on a frosty morning 😂

When are we actually going to see these in use ???😢

Only used ONR & Carpro Ech20 here. Both work fine as final wipe downs, going over the interior plastics, wiping down door shuts etc.

Hearing a lot of positives from the garage therapy rinseless product but not tried it yet personally.

Hey John, you have to remove the cap on the small dilution chamber and squeeze entire bottle to dispense product for the Wolfgang Rinseless wash. Apologies if it has already been mentioned. Personally I think Uber Rinsless is the slickest when drying and leave an incredible gloss behind, its my drying aid of choice when diluted down.

😂 mortgage your house to buy a big red sponge 😂 and i thought it was just me being stuck in the 80's, where a yellow car wash sponge was the washing tool and it was $1.00 or so 🤔...

I just use a few microfibers & turn them over, never putting them back into the bucket... I am new to this rinseless wash!!! Saves more money that way 😂, yessss i am cheap like that?

Thanks for doing these tests. Ive used ONR for a long time, dont plan on changing but still interested to see how the others perform!

I think the American brands are guilty of not updating their labels, ie Mckees , ethos if it’s a new version then put an updated label on it!

You my friend are on another level when it comes to testing and being genuine. Thank you for what you do. I do have come to realize that the small differences from "BEST" are so small. A lot of amazing products out now that really are simply amazing. Excited to see your results.

What really appeals to me the most is the dilution ratios on the Carbon Collective bottle and its in METRIC!!!! what is important is the description of 100ml to 900ml of water- You don't have to think as they have done the calculation for you! Its like when you are in the supermarket and you are scanning your own shopping in self checkout - effectively you are working for the supermarket! So some brands you have to go away and convert the many different dilutions into metric, so effectively you are working to sort out a problem that should be on the bottle that you've paid for. Kudos to Carbon Collective

Hi Jon, what about CARPRO ECH2o? The product is promoted as a waterless wash, but in the instructions it says you can use it also as a rinse less wash. I would love to see it compared to the others, but I guess it might be too late. Great test btw. Looking forward to seeing the results!

Thanks for doing this very interesting and a lot of work and time gone into it 👍

We use DIY Detail Rinseless in our body shop. Leaves nothing behind and cleans great.

With so many options available on the market how should consumers go about choosing one to try?

Oh man where can we find this table with decent letters or printed? I think this would give all the information concentraded instead of watching all 1,5 hours

From what I gather from online videos, the top 3 are Feynlab, Armour and DIY.

What is recommended that CLEANS well, without leaving anything behind? I want something that can be used as presoak - prewash and can encapsulate dust, because we have a lot of dust here. Foaming is a bonus.

Can't wait to see how the test unfolds!

Keep up the good work, and maybe use some rinseless to wash hands and cut your nails love!

Off topic from the current video. I’ve just come across the channel- great content! Is there a specific video concerning cleaning fabric seats? Or, could any day 1 followers point me in the right direction. Thanks

Great, in-depth look at the now myriad options for rinseless/"waterless" washes.
Also a good demonstration of why you should watch and listen to all of the stuff that's out there, that's the first time I've heard that story about Yvan & ONR. Talking of which, it's good to see those ratios on the big bottle, as they don't appear on the 236.6ml. one. Though it may be "The Daddy", maybe 1 mark less (obviously you can't be expected to review all product sizes).

It's a bit like Blackadder trying to psych out Johnson about his dictionary by saying other words, Supercharged Llama threw in Garage Therapy's version.

Hi, Could you please try Autoxpert Super ceramix Car sealant And give a review?

I always thought that "user experience" was something along the lines of experience aqruired using the product.

This might be more accurately named "label review" or along those lines

I think youve missed the best of them all, Bilthamber Touchless.

Great expansive video, as always. Love the attention to detail you give all of the products!

Waste of time. No demos just a critique of the labels and bottles.
