Welcome to the latest episode of the podcast, where Nick and Marshall dive deep into the world of rinseless washing. In this informative discussion, they shed light on the challenges and misconceptions surrounding rinseless products and share their expert insights to help you achieve optimal results.

We also discuss what actually happens when a car goes through a modern car wash. There is a big misconception that brushes are causing all of the damage and that is not the truth. Hot chemicals are causing way more damage than the brushes.

As experienced detailers, Nick and Marshall understand the importance of finding the perfect rinseless solution that provides extreme lubrication and minimal streaking. Nick reflects on his 13-year journey in the rinseless game, having tried various popular products that claim to be the best. He highlights the critical aspect of lubrication in rinseless formulas, as it directly affects the potential for marring.

The hosts discuss the difficulty of finding a rinseless product that strikes the right balance between lubrication and dilution. They explain that a higher dilution ratio might reduce streaking but compromises on lubrication, leading to potential marring on delicate car surfaces. On the other hand, using a stronger dilution may require more product and can still lead to issues.

Marshall and Nick take a candid approach to product evaluations, sharing instances where they've tested and rejected certain rinseless products due to their lack of lubrication or potential for causing damage. They emphasize the importance of continuous improvement and the commitment to creating a rinseless solution that meets their high standards.

The hosts also discuss the significance of adapting the rinseless process to different environmental conditions. In hot and humid climates, they recommend using more product on the towel to ensure sufficient lubrication and reduce the risk of streaking. Conversely, in colder weather, using less product may be ideal to avoid over-wetting the towel.

Whether you're a mobile detailer or operating in a climate-controlled shop, Nick and Marshall stress the need to adjust your process throughout the year based on temperature changes. They share valuable tips for optimizing your rinseless wash, taking into account environmental factors and the unique needs of each vehicle.

Tune in to the Podcast for in-depth discussions, practical tips, and expert advice to elevate your detailing game and achieve stunning results in every rinseless wash. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from two industry veterans and take your detailing skills to new heights.
