Optimum No Rinse question
Hey-
I ordered No Rinse, and before it arrives, I was wondering if it would harm my Swiss Trax plastic garage floor tiles, assuming some drips from the car to the floor? Does No Rinse dry without leaving a slick patch on the floor? Or would I have to mop up the excess?
I've seen the helpful demo Anthony did outside, but never saw the results of an inside the garage cleaning.
Thanks!

I have Bigfoot rubber tiling on my floor and haven't noticed any particular staining and I have no doubt spilled quite a bit of no rinse on my floor in the past year. I'm sure like anything else, if you fail to clean it up, it will leave a water mark but you should be able to wash it away with any number of simple floor cleaners.

Interesting ??? I used no rinse for the 1st time in my garage last weekend.....but my floor is just cement... It does work great, adds a touch of shine too......plus it just makes the car smell clean!!

A polyurethane clear coat is more 'fragile' than a synthetic floor covering. ONR doesn't harm the clear coat so I wouldn't think it will harm the floor covering

Thanks. It's not that it would harm the tiles, I just worry that I will have a slick ring around the floor where the water drips off. Or something like that.

The 'slick' ring (outline of the vehicle on the floor / driveway) is usually caused by products that contain Dimethal silicone, ONR doesn't contain this silicone so it won't cause this type of problem
