Optimum No Rinse Wash and Shine REVIEW

WOW!!! I Don't know what to say..... I did not expect a product to be that much better than its competitor (I can't spell) ....But this is one product that relly shocked me when I used it.

I used 3 capfuls for 3 gallons of water. It goes on so smooth!! And when you dry the section you have just done the microfiber just seems to swallow the leftovers....It leaves a nice smooth shine!! It is far better than XXX. I did my car quickly with no problems no streaks, everything is positive about this product! WoW.... Do they plan to sell stock in this company? If I had to say anything negative it would be it cost a little more but it WELL worth it. Now some others chime in with their reviews...... Mike in SC ........WOW

That sounds great. But I have so much of XXX that I'll have to wait a while to try this new stuff out.

The main thing I noticed was the increased slickness over QEW and I also noticed less streaking on glass. I still haven't used it as a QD though, I need to get a new bottle and sprayer and see how it works.

I have about 5 gallons QEWs of brand xxx at my house right now. 3 are going to friends. I figure by fall I'll be ready for this product.
