It's getting hotter here in Phoenix and I last week, I tried to do an ONR wash in my A/C'd garage but did not want to wet the garage floor using the ONR in a bucket method. So what I did was put the ONR mixture in a pesticide spray pump bottle I bought at Home Depot. I sprayed each panel with a liberal amount of ONR mix, let is stand for about 1 minute or so, wiped it with a MF towel then followed up with another MF towel to dry.

I did not notice any marring afterwards. My question is - If ONR encapsulates dirt/dust, would this method be as safe as the traditional 2 bucket method? Of course, common sense dictates that I'd only be using this method on a not so dirty car. This method saves me a lot of time, I don't have to put rinse and put away buckets and my garage floor remains dry.

What do you think?

That first MF needs to be saturated in ONR.As long as the surface is clean before you dry, and you keep the wash media rinsed you should be fine.

This is the same way I have been using the ONR. I have only done a few vehicles with it and it seems to work great for me as well. I believe customers like to see something sprayed on their vehicle instead of just wiped on.

I can say I have definitely been impressed by the ONR so far.
