OG is the sole importer for the US now. He will have Touch-Less, Traceless, Atom Mac and the clay bars in the OG store. The full line will be available through Bilt Hamber's website, but will be fulfilled by OG. They are also going to work with other distributors that want it once stock gets built up. Price is $43 from OG, but actual shipping cost gets passed along (unless you're a Hex Plus member) so it ends up being essentially the same as Carzilla with "free" shipping, depending on where you live.
I saw a video where Starnjagloss Forst (APC) did better than Touch-less…I think I’m good with an APC rinse…great review Eddie!!! Perfect treat mid week!!!

Eddie, I think you inadvertently just did a video to show the benefit of a high quality coating. I use Touchless v1 on my cars. On one that's coated with Feynlab ceramic v3 I can almost get the panel completely clean with just a run of the mill soap presoak. On the other car with just a spray sealant that gets driven very little I can't do the same and this is where Touchless comes in. Last thing I will say is with a product like Touchless you're actually paying for what's not in it. No caustic soda, NTA, or phosphates. It also contains corrosion inhibitors. I use mine in an ik Foam Pro 12 as you use way less product and don't have to worry about PIR. The APC pre rinse is definitely a proven method and works well.

@@Ecdetails I heard you mention it. I just thought it was interesting that the video is about one thing, but was a perfect example to show something else as well. On the smell front I wonder if it's fermented sugar as Touchless is sugar based. You're about to send me into a rabbit hole now.
I've boosted my soaps with Greenstar in the past and have also used Forst and they both have performed well getting rid of contaminates. The only true tests I have done thus far are SNO and Frostbite foamed on the surface, rinse and then followed up with a rinseless wash and both of those times I had extremely minimal dirt on my towels. I prefer these soaps over an APC because of ease of use with one product for simplicity versus multiple products and dilution ratios. Plus they're ready to go for the next quick wash as well!

It’s worth noting that because BH is made in the UK it’s A LOT cheaper here and therefore is good value for money, hence its popularity. It’s also sugar-based (unlike an APC) which means it’s much kinder to the environment and is safe to be rinsed away with causing problems to waterways and surrounding ecosystems 😊

Great vid. FWIW, when my kids come home from college, their cars are usually hammered and smothered with bugs. I've found that Touch-Less worked great on removing the bugs. I'm not sure where I heard it, but somebody on one of their KZread videos mentioned that the glucose based surfactants (like those in Touch-Less) work especially well on organic matter. I've tried a few other APCs and Citrus Cleaners, but none worked as well as Touch-Less on the bugs. I haven't compared it to a dedicated bug remover, so can't offer any comparison. I used to go old school and spray the bugs with a higher PH soap, then cover with plastic wrap and "marinate" for about 30 minutes to keep it from drying out and allow it to break down the bugs (... plus we live in N. Texas and it gets freaking hot). Now if you asked me, do I NEED Touch-Less the answer is probably not. I do like it and it is part of my detailing chemical arsenal. I've also found the price to be pretty comparable with APCs when you buy it by the gallon/5L.

I don’t have a use for a touch less wash personally. I rather do an apc rinse and rinseless wash. I think the Stars and Stripes is unique in that it’s like a 3ph wash where you hit it with an acidic one and then an alkaline one, with the idea being that the ph shock can help break loose more stuff.
@Ecdetails
Ай бұрын
Stars and Stripes is real good but you need 2 cannons or sprayers and 2 soaps , we’ll need to do a test to make sure
I prefer to use my normal foam cannon mix of Incredible suds and just add in some all clean if needed and the amount I use is based on how dirty. You could also just spray the APC on the dirty area and then normal foam on top. These touch-less are far too expensive to me and the amount of product needed good lord. If your car is coated it’s going to clean easily anyways unless you have been letting it get clogged up and need a decon wash.
@Ecdetails

Agreed man , I generally just apc spray on let it sit if I’m doing a rinseless spray off contact wash
Did you test the new BH Touch-less on the wheels/tire like you did with the APC from ADS? That would have been a good to know how it would work on wheels/tires. They seem to all perform the same but does the fact that the vehicle was ceramic coated? Try on a non coated vehicle. How does it any of these compare to Stars and Stripes? A video comparo on the BH, the ADD APC, Dark Fury, DIY Detail AllClean etc and the Stars and Stripes would be great to put it all out there.

The PIR calc is super easy. Just fill your foam cannon bottle with water and spray it into a bucket until the foam cannon bottle is empty. Measure the amount dispensed. Then multiply by 0.005 (for .5% PIR), 0.01 (for 1%) or 0.02 (for 2%). Or just skip all that and apply it with a trigger sprayer or pump sprayer)foamer. It is just as effective when applying with a trigger sprayer. 20 mL in a 1000mL bottle will give you a 2% solution.

20ml in a liter of water. Pump spray on the car. Best prewash you have ever seen.

@@Ecdetails the forst is mighty and works wonders on tires too. But the Touchless at 2-4% in the Pump sprayer is just a weapon. Didn't compare them side by side but on wife's white car, the dirt just completely melts when using the Touchless. Only saw close to the same effect from Koch Chemie vbn but at 10% dilution.

@@georgeker1great suggestion imma put them to the test!! Thank you 🙏
TOUCH-LESS is our new eco-friendly pressure-washer, pre-clean, snow foam which can be applied by pump spray or trigger too. Applied at between 0.5% - 2% PIR this bio-degradable sugar-based product provides truly exceptional levels of cleaning of automotive paintwork. Unlike other petrochemical-based cleaners TOUCH-LESS is free-and-easy rinsing, easing the effort of subsequent bucket washes and massively helping post-treatments bond too. TOUCH-LESS also contains corrosion inhibitors. Packed in a 1 litre bottle, contains no phosphates, solvents, NTA, or caustic soda. No bad 💩

APC is the way to go. Green star or ADS fixed in with their soaps. I have done it like this ever since green star came out. You are not saying “touch less” doesn’t work you as comparing the cost. It’s a no brainer.

@@havingtoomuchfun4806 if you add 15ml to 1.5l (1%, or equivalent of 19c - yeah it's 1l for £10 here) in an IK sprayer, it's a Goldilocks ratio, cleans really well. Unlike an APC, this doesn't bash it's way through LSP's. So cheap, cleans well, leaves BSD alone and is environmentally friendly-ish (if you care about that kind of thing). For the love of god, don't dump 250ml in a foam cannon. Treat this stuff as a prewash, not a Snowfoam.

@@pigeonpoo1823Exactly what I commented before, this is the most efficient way to use these products, in a IK Foam Sprayer….I only use 1.25 Ounces for a 1 Gallon of distilled water and I wash a full size truck including wheel wells and wheels. That equals to 135 washes at 1% and 67 at 2%. Makes no sense to look elsewhere. Less than a dollar per wash!

@@Ecdetailshe wouldn't, you showed that Touch-Less works as advertised. He gets a bad rap, but Matt's actually a cool dude. I've been following him since 2017 and he's 100% authentic and calls it like he sees it. I get that he's abrasive sometimes and that rubs people the wrong way, but more often than not he's right when it comes to a lot of things in life (outside of detailing). I follow very little of what he does detailing-wise, and he annoys me oftentimes with how he stubbornly clings to Gtechniq coatings, his resistance to better products/methods and the fact that he refuses to understand that you can use a pressure washer and still do a rinseless wash. His polishing style also mystifies me when he's got the machine cranked up to 11 with a microfiber pad and a ton of pressure, but I digress. Matt does his thing and he's happy with it. I'm an adult, and I don't really get offended by anything or anyone. I don't need Matt Moreman to validate my product preferences or methods, and I don't care if he calls me an idiot for putting Barrina lights up in my garage. I know I'm an idiot for doing that because they suck balls. I want the CREE LEDs that he sells, but I just need to budget and save up for them. Hopefully I can keep the Barrinas going and not falling onto my cars until then. No one "needs" anything that OG sells, but I'm glad they exist because it is the ultimate resource for awesome stuff. If you want something cheap, buy it from Amazon, Alibaba or Temu. Cheap is everywhere and is easy to find. But if you want something that is high quality and you've reached a point in your life where you can afford it, or can at least budget and save for it, OG is the place to find some amazing stuff for your garage and house. I'm never going to have a true OG setup, but I can buy the elements of it that I value and that are going to make my life easier in the garage. Matt and his team have made that possible and they make interesting/entertaining content. Yeah they charge for shipping, but so does DIY Detail. Shipping isn't free and shipping companies don't give very good prices to smaller companies like OG.

In your situation (indoors) using a foam cannon for Touch-less v2 is unnecessary you're using too much product. A 1000ml pump sprayer would need 20ml on a gnarly car, 5ml on a lightly soiled car.
