ONR won't pick up the contaminants like a claybar will. I just use my normal No Rinse wash and the proceed with the claybar right after. You can actually use the No Rinse in a spray bottle and use it as a clay lube. 2 ounces of No Rinse makes a gallon of clay lube. 6 ounces of No Rinse makes a gallon of quick detailer.

After you are done claying, you can use a polish to clean the paint and bring out more shine and reflection or just proceed with the Wet Obsession.

I bought my yellow GT from a dealer 4 months ago. I wasnt in love with the color so I figured I should make it as clean and bright as possible.

I first clayed it and tried about every configuration polish, wax I found. except for one, Megs NXT generation syn wax.....

I held off using syn because I'm growing into a greenie...well let me say that I wouldnt use any thing else!...it slides on smooth and better yet, with microfiber rags you buy at costco 75/$20 theres NO rubbing involved....

I've had it on for 3 months No RUBBING!..I do wipe it down every night in the garage and I dont drive more than 10mi a day and stay out of the rain

now I get chicken skin when I se it parked! and so do others...

the key in my opinion is, garage, nightly wipe down with micro fiber and tell it how muchyou love it!

Aloha,
Gil

I don't have black but Dark Candy Apple Red and it does great. The only time I ever hose wash is if it gets real dirty and needs the caked up stuff sprayed off.

If you want to wash your car without spots, try the, "spotless" water deionizer. It does what it says, though it's expensive.

PS... I tried clicking on the links and they didn't work so i'm not really sure what this product does or how it works. From what I gather, you can wash your car and not rinse it off... is this right?
