in between full details, i use it almost once every week or two. i have twilight blue so swirls are easy to see but this stuff hasn't shown to mess up my paint. 2 bucket method here. Also, with a little more product, it's slick enough for the clay bar for those full details.

ONR is great; couple things which I keep mentioning is to use a Microfiber wash mitt as ONR washes will completely destroy a sheepskin mitt (tooo much dirt), and if vehicle is excessively dirty do a spray down with 2:1 concentration then followed by ONR wash. I only wash one panel at a time in winter when it is too cold (water will freeze) but for the most part I wash the car completely before I dry it. I apply a spray of Quick Detailer and then dry the vehicle with my Waffle Weave Towel.

ONR is some great stuff; clay lube, Quick Detailer, rinseless wash, APC... one of the better investments you will make with a detailing product.

I use ONR with sheepskin mitts exclusively, and haven't noticed any accelerated degradation

How often do you clean your wash mitt or rather what do you use to clean it with after ONR washes? I have found I need to include a cleaning of the wash mitt with liquid detergent (Woolite) after each ONR wash since the mitt is much more dirty than a regular wash would have the mitt. Regular wash cycles (outside with a rinse wash) I can get away with rinsing the mitt with the garden hose and then letting the mitt soak in a bucket of water overnight and 90% of the junk will be off of it.

As long as you use a lubricant; it should be no issue. I would not clay while you are doing the wash though. Wash the vehicle with ONR, dry it (if necessary do an ISA wipedown if you have any sealant/wax on the vehicle) and then clay the vehicle. ONR is extremely slick and can also be used as a clay lube even at the 1:1 ratio but it is recommend @ 2:1.

I agree. You can always clay a CLEAN car. ONR produces a CLEAN car.
