Another great Ultimate Dubs show this year at Telford International Centre on 13th March.  An excellent turnout including a large number of overseas visitors.  Good to see plenty of visitors to our trade stand, we’re always happy to help, give friendly advice, handy tips and a big thank you from Car Care Nut to all our customers on the day.  We kept getting asked about the fragrant scent that people experienced when walking near our stand.  This was our new Car Air Freshner available in 50ml spray bottle and scented Candy, went down a storm!  Also a good brand on the day was Poorboys.  We’ve added to the products we stock in this range this year including Black Hole which is a car glaze for use on dark cars, and SSR1 & SSR2.5 which are swirl removers.  Bilt Hamber clay bars were also a good seller as you get a mighty block of clay for your money and it can be used with water alone which is a money saver as no clay lube needed.  Hope to see you back at Ultimate Dubs, Telford next year or at other shows we will be doing throughout 2011.  Keep an eye on the blog for details.

Optimum No Rinse Wash & Shine is the most technologically advanced car wash system that only requires 1 – 2 gallons of water to wash the entire car as no rinsing is required.

This unique product contains substantive polymers which bond to the paint and protect it during the wash.  Optimum No Rinse Wash & Shine offers greater protection and lubricity than conventional car washes, leaving a sleek and glossy finish. 

Optimum No Rinse Wash & Shine is not only used as a no rinse car wash, but can also be added to your regular car wash, can be used as a slick clay bar lubricant, or as an excellent quick detailer. 

How to use it as a car wash:-

Using a two bucket wash method work a panel at a time.  Soak a microfibre wash mitt in the bucket which has 1oz ONR to 1-2 gallons of warm water and wash over the panel.  Dry the panel using a microfibre drying towel, the results are outstanding!

How to use it in your regular car wash:-

Add 1oz ONR to your regular car wash.  It acts as a water softener and conditioner to improve the quality of the water that touches your vehicle, providing the ultimate safe wash.

How to use it as a super-slick clay bar lubricant:-

Add 2oz of ONR to a gallon of water to make a super-slick clay bar lubricant.  Spray on your vehicle to provide a slippery protective layer beneath your clay.  After claying each section simply wipe dry.

How to use it as an excellent quick detailer:-

Add 6oz ONR to a gallon of water to make an excellent quick detailer.  Simply fill up a spray bottle with the mixture and use it to clean and shine your vehicle, just as you would use a traditional detailer.  The polymers bond to the paint surface to protect it from abrasion and micro-marring as you clean.  The incredible formula leaves your vehicle extremely slick and glossy.

Overall this is an extremely multi-use product.  Let us know how you use Optimum No Rinse Wash & Shine and share your comments with others.
