Im thinking for trying the body wrap, I understand for best results dont use any QD or shampoo other then Wolfs nano products for best results. As I understand using other glossing agents "clog the pores" and mess it up on the nano level. I do a fair amount of ONR washes esp. in the winter. How bad is this for the coating? Can I really not use any other QDs other then nano approved products? Thanks
I'd be interested to know as well. I really liked BW so much that I bought more and the glass guard too this time. I have a fair share of ONR that im wondering what to do with now.
Hi Jeff! So the products we made for the nano sealant will get you the best results and the best durability out of Body Wrap. Normal QD's are usually filled with polymers and other gloss-enhancing materials that will "clog" the nano bridge that's responsible for the hydrophobic properties of BW. The surfactants in normal shampoos will do the same... they cling to the microscopic "spikes" that create the lotus effect and basically "flatten" them, thus killing the beading over time. ONR is also filled with polymers, perhaps more than the average shampoo, so the effect will be the same. Now this is not something that will happen with a couple of washes, but rater over the course of many washes, but you will see a big difference in durability, shine and beading if you stick to our nano-friendly products. Our nano shampoo is designed to preserve the coating on your car and the nano QD is designed to "repair" it if it gets damaged by abrasion, harsh chemicals, etc. and it can also be used to boost the shine. You'll see that when Body Wrap is on the car, most of the other products you used to use will be obsolete. The shine is silly, no need for QD's/drying aids when drying the car because the coating is very slick, and the car will stay much cleaner than it will with a traditional wax. Let me know if you have any more questions! Cheers , Jesse
To be or not to be, that is the question. Actually: To wax or to wrap, that is the real question. Haha...hard decisions Jesse
Hi Jesse, I am wondering if I still use ONR on the car from time to time as a quick detialer or clay lube, would an APC wash followed by an IPA wipedown remove these " polymers and other gloss-enhancing materials" and make the surface ready for an additional application of BW?
Very good question young padawan Yes it should do the trick! Applying APC and just letting it "sit" won't do much, so you'll need to actually "wash" the car with an APC mix to get results. So basically "scrub out" the polymers if you will . After that you should be good to go for another layer, just make sure to rinse the car thoroughly after the APC wash to remove any residue! - Jesse
