This is a waterless wash while ONR is usually diluted to be used as a rinseless wash.

With waterless washes you spray a more concentrated product and wipe off the captured dirt using multiple microfibers.

With rinseless there's more dilution and you use a saturated sponge or microfiber to get off dirt. Then you dry.

Waterless washing doesn't require a bucket of water or an extra drying step, but takes more attention and you have to wash a bunch of microfibers after. Better for spot cleans.

You can also dilute rinseless wash less to get a similar product to waterless wash, but it might not be as ideal as a dedicated waterless wash.

The new spray bottle is much better. If you are refilling the old bottles without the yellow top, you really should get one on a deal and try it. Much easier on the hands.

When would someone use this versus something like ONR? Do they work similarly or do they have different use cases?

Don't these products basically rub the dirt against the finish?

Shouldn't be used on really dirty cars. Waterless products are good for dust and light "dirt' I use it every 3 or 4 days. It's important to use the right type of microfiber towels, waffle weave preferred. If the car is really dirty, break out the hose instead

Can't go wrong with Meguiars. I use this after going through a touch less car wash to dry and put a quick coat of wax. Dries quickly and smells great.

I don't know if I got a bad bottle but the newer yellow top bottle is noticeably less slick compared to the previous all black top bottle. Before my towel would glide when wiping off UWW&W but now it drags. I also wonder why this new yellow top bottle is discounted often compared to the previous black top bottle. Anyone else notice that the newer yellow top bottle is less slick than the previous all black top bottle?

So this is a quick detailer?

Similar use case, but waterless wash will have encapsulation polymers to give more protection against grit vs typical quick detailers. That means they can recommend it be used as a full car wash.
QD's on the other hand are mostly meant for spot cleaning, and are notorious for not protecting against swirls

Also, QD's usually have gloss / silicone additives

Essentially, yes. I've found this wash and wax (or at least this same name but the previous worse bottle top) to be a watered down QD. Has some slight lifting/surfactant properties (probably due to a higher concentration of water compared to other QDs) and it clogs your microfibers less because of them. (Quick detailers stick to microfibers like crazy and often need a presoak or a dedicated microfiber washing solution to remove).

I got it on sale sometime before and leave it in the car for bird poop and other things I'd want to quickly remove (and I find these a bit better than a dedicated QD at removing poop) - but after I finished the bottle, I just tossed a zep bottle filled with P&S Beadmaker in the car.

It *will* add a very light hint of water repellant. Not much, but effective enough to give a notable shine over just a plain gloss free car wash like meg's gold class or any other plain detailer car wash with no other product in it.

All in all, its a really niche product, but satisfies a segment of people who do not have access to a car wash or apartment car washes.
