HOW TO READ SDS SHEETS

[DetailProjects]

I'm seeing many lightbulbs going off in the comments in this RW series and wanted to share my thoughts with the community.
I am not a person that is easily persuaded by detail marketing claims or processes or methodologies of detailing. One needs to take a stance of “skepticism” as many initially believe what an YT influencer or manufacturers says without any rational thought and that's the narrative, they sell products on and one will/would believe moving forward and will ultimately defend it without asking any questions.
The best way to approach something in car detailing is to just ask questions for yourself - make your question’s list for ANY detailing process or chemical product. Find what actually works for YOU and why?
Here is a sample of questions for a RW chemical product and washing contact process that I developed for myself:
- Is rinseless washing truly safer than a traditional contact wash?
- Is proper rinseless washing actually quicker than a traditional wash?
- Can a RW be used for all types of grime accumulation on a vehicle like a traditional contact wash?
- Is modern RW methodology or process better now or when it was first developed as now some say to pre-rinse or soak with a RW before you do a RW wash or even rinse after the RW contact wash, why was the narrative changed?
- Like all things does RW have limitations and what are they?
- Does the 256:1 ratio standardized narrative actually work for ALL RW formulations as no two formulations are the same nor use the same cleaning agents, chemicals or formulations?
- Has anybody actually tested what is the best dilution ratio to use for a given RW product?
- Does the choice of different wash media work better with a given RW chemical formulation or ratios than others (best pairing)?
- Why believe you should only use a sponge with every RW formulated product?
- Clearcoat gets scratched from the detailing process by more “contact” and surface resistance on the vehicle clearcoat from the wash media, type of media selected, the chemicals selected, and the drying process selected (towel dry or blow dry) - which washing process has the least amount clearcoat contact on clearcoat over time traditional wash or RW’ing?
- Traditional contact wash, rinse, blow dry off versus towel dry in RW process – which will scratch the vehicle less over time?
- What wash media or RW multiple media process by design has the least probability to scratch clearcoat in a RW process?

- Why is a twist loop towel the best drying towel for the RW process? Does the height of the twist loop pile matter as twist loop pile can be aggressive on the clearcoat surface based upon the applied pressure downwards, least surface resistance when a drying towel is a little wet and was that why drying aids were developed?
- Does a surfactant type by classification leave less surfactant residue on the surface after drying in a RW process?
- Does a RW containing surfactants leave behind surfactant residue after drying the surface without rinsing?
- Do the chemicals chosen in the RW formulation scratch the surface because the chemical(s) chosen in the formulation?
- Am I reviewing SDS sheets before purchasing a product and reaching out to the manufacturers with my questions on the product before using them on vehicles?
Granted, the list can go on and on or get “crazy” but it’s illustrating a point here, that being - are you thinking like this (you should be as chemicals are dangerous) or just simply believing what someone, albeit who they are, says?
That’s what I do, I test my questions and post review videos at the attempt to validate or “try to validate” the product marketing claims, process and methodology claims in the detail industry the best I can, with the resources available to me and the knowledge I possess and the contacts I have in the detail industry.
I pose only illustrations of my findings to my community. I’m a sample of one, not perfect, have my own opinions and testing my “question lists” so I can choose for myself the best possible process and detailing products for my applications in car detailing.
How about you?

Already decided 8 mins in to never use P&S Absolute Rinseless, thanks for the heads up about the ingredient that potentially discolors plastics and how this stuff can come out of solution in the bucket!

[willtothewong]

The best testing series so far! Keep up the great work.

[greengohm]

Shattering my opinions about rinseless wash products one brand at a time! ;)

Thanks again for your dedication :)

[sixbolt]

Absolute is the first product I’ve used for RW and thought it was great for the most part. Can’t wait to try out other products now, thanks for the RW tests !

There’s a lot of hype of this method of washing and I’m glad I found this video. I just bought this product and plan to only use it for light maintenance and whenever I can’t foam/contact wash. Like for customers in office parking lots. Great testing

[sergio-travel]

Thanks again for doing this. I'm really looking forward to the rest of the RW series. I started RW my cars in 2018 but I eventually went back to traditional washing after using ONR, Uber, Duraglos, Ultima, N914 as no matter what I did, sponge, multiple towels I saw marring after a while. I know every time you wash you scratch your car but the traditional wash has been less scratch inducing to my car. This last 6 months went back to rinseless seeing all these new players and after DIY, Gyeon and my old Ultima WW plus, DIY created the most marring. I'm hopeful to find one that is safer as I really enjoy rinseless washing. So far from your tests looks like Hero and RRW are the safest. Keep at it. Thanks again. And keep the acrylic panel testing. It's very quickly telling what's what.

[ShafikHabal-ztsw]

Thanks so much for all of the detailed information very helpful. Best series I've seen very informative

[TRIGGAMAN_LOCO]

Great video, literally the best i've seen. thanks!

[T-BoneTodd]

Great testing! The only thing I would recommend is pre- spray the panel before wash media. It other than that great testing!

[shadovtec]

Love your videos! Cant wait for ONR V5

[GlassfilmWeddings]

Can you PLEASE tell us what rinseless is the best and the one you like best PLEASE?

[briangreco]

Can’t wait to see your thoughts on ONR and 914.

[kristofferpence]

Absolute stained my trim everytime I washed. This makes sense lol

[GaryCD]

Thanks for the review! From the ones you tested, which is the one you d go back to for your car? I currently use Hero. I like the honesty in your reviews.

[jfarm_]

Have you tried this with car shampoo? Curious how much the results would differ. I know we will it’s safer, but has it been tested in this scenario?

[goldwing.garcia]

Most rinseless is not for heavily soiled panels. For a stronger bite get Feynlab Pure Rinseless

[sahib_ch]

can i use it for solely as a drying aid after a regular foam wash? what would be best ratio according to you for this specific purpose. i do not intend to use it as a cleaning agent, i like putting in time washing my car the conventional way but i want something that can increase lubricity while drying and not add protection on my already applied ceramic sealant.

[xray]

You should definitely do onr next. The og. Also feynlab v3 and n-914 would be nice.

[asdf]

was looking forward to seeing a polymer wash. would you be able to link to where we could buy the test panels for those of us who may want to analyze our current processes
