    • Sudeep - Dude, don't keep washing with water with buckets & buckets of water, its harmful for both paint as well as metals & not to mention the pressure wash on the plastics.

      Just use ONR that consumes a litre of water & wipe out all the dust, polish & then wax it up. That way, you can have rust & dust free ride for few months.

        any specific brand of ONR to use?? and where can you buy it? Car accessories shops will have ONRs?

        • ONR is the brand. It stands for Optimum No Rinse. You can order it through online from Automall, Bangalore.

          Edit - Its worth going through this link - http://www.autogeek.net/optimum-no-rinse.html

              Oh!!! Don't!!!

              Waxpol is for waxing. ONR is for washing. Both products are completely different on their purpose.

              If you want to change from Waxpol, use Collinite 845, again from Automall Bangalore. It takes hardly 5 minutes to apply, wait for 10-15 minutes to dry & another 5 minutes to rub. Effort on workout as well as outcome is several times better than waxpol.

              But a word of suggestion - For best result, use only MF cloth (good quality) & no compromise on that.

                          I just had to get a wash, so took it there. I didn't knew about ONR. Thanks for the info.
                          Also where is this Automall in Bangalore? Any links?

                          3M Micro Fiber clothes are available @ 99 bucks a piece at the 3M Car Care at HSR Layout, Bangalore. Should be available in all the 3M outlets.
