I think I’ll also try some ONR as it seems super versatile.
Could I use that to wipe down lightly soiled chassis and suspension components and engine bays?

Either by just laying under it with a damp cloth or on a hoist.
Absolutely!!

I use ONR all the time for engine bay cleaning or wipe overs.



The great thing with rinse-less products when dealing with areas you can't completely remove the residue from, they don't cause any damage if left to dry on the surface.

In this case, I applied APC as a pre-soak, agitated then flushed with ONR at 256:1 to remove the APC residue. A quick wipe over what I could reach, I called it good.





ONR was the original rinse-less wash, and it's gone through a few revisions since, the latest v5 launched early 2023.

For your application for underbody cleaning, I would do it at 128:1. I would also suggest getting a Pro-Blend or Carpro dispensing cups, and maybe an IK or Marolex pump sprayer -

Dilution Ratios -

Quick Detailer - 16:1 (I use this ratio for engine bay wipe overs and door jambs, interior dusting)

30ml in 500ml (Spray Bottle) of distilled water
60ml in 1Litre (Spray Bottle) of distilled water

Clay lube - 64:1

Waterless Washing -128:1

Rinse-less Washing - 256:1

30ml to 7.5 lt of water
