Quickly and Easily Wash your vehicle at home with onr

     When you think of washing your vehicle at home you normally think of a garden hose, soap and some elbow grease. With ONR, there is no need for any of that except the water. ONR is a polymer-based cleaner instead of a surfactant or soap based cleaner. ONR traps and grabs dirt and begins to break it down. Soap only provides some slight lubrication. ONR provides so much lubrication that it lifts the dirt from the surface ever so slightly making it the least likely way to cause scratches.


     This technology is closer to you than you think. Dishwasher pods have a similar ability to clean dishes. While there is surfactant based chemicals in them, they also have chemicals that lift and break down food gunk. Furthermore, rinse-aid has the same idea of ONR. It leaves a spot free finish because even clean dishes with spots on them looks nasty. Those spots are cause by hard water-nasty chemicals put in the water to kill other nasty chemicals. Rinse-aid neutralizes those chemicals leaving a spot-free finish. 


ONR is also a water softener and neutralizes the chemicals in the water just like the rinse-aid. No more aggressive scrubbing needs to be done because of the technology in ONR. The cleaning power of ONR is also stronger than in soap.


ONR also allows you to not have to pre-rinse the vehicle and no need to post-rinse. You can pre-rinse with ONR which will save lots of time. You will be able to wash your exterior in under 30 minutes with ONR. Most people that I ask about washing at home wit soap, they tell me it takes an hour and a half to wash their vehicle with soap. Yikes, that's way too long.


I get it. Most people stick with what they know. Do me a favor. Buy a 32oz bottle, try it out and tell me this stuff isn't amazing. You will be convinced very quickly that ONR is a far superior wash cleaner than anything else that exists. Don't forget your ONR wash sponge and micro fiber drying towel. For less that $100 you can wash your vehicle in under 30 minutes.


My name is Tug Bankert and I am the owner/operator of Wax On Wax Off Detailing in Hanover, Pa. I have been detailing since 1999. I started my shop in 2013 and I have become so much more profitable and efficient because of ONR. Now, you are not a detailing business owner and there is not need to be profitable, but your time is precious. Why would you waste an hour an a half to wash your vehicle when it could take less than 30 minutes? Buy ONR and it will give you a ton of time back.


By the way, there are many rinse less products out there. The is only one No-Rinse...Optimum No-Rinse!
