best method for Optimum No Rinse (ONR) and items needed
so i just picked up ONR 32oz, micro fibre wash mitts, 5 gal bucket, and dirt tray that sits at the bottom so the towels dont sit in the dirt. So i didnt realize it was a no rinse wash/wax, never used anything like this either. what is the preffered/best method to go about using this, and what else do i need to invest in?

Coated Paint Wash
This method makes an ideal wash for winter washing or coated paint surfaces
Mix an aqueous solution Optimum (OPT) No Rinse™ Wash & Shine New Formula (ONR) diluted 1:3 with distilled water in a spray bottle and a similar solution in a bucket. Place 10 – 12 micro fibre towels in the bucket, wring one (drying) towel lightly, mist spray a panel and then take a wet towel and wipe down a panel in one direction only, change to a clean surface of the towel as necessary.
When you have cleaned the panel place the used towel in an empty bucket for washing later. With the drying towel wipe down the panel, finally with a clean, dry waffle weave micro fibre buff the panel to a shine (Based on a method by Gary Dean)
Use Optimum Instant Detailer & Gloss Enhancer by spraying it on the panels as you dry the vehicle. This will create a super slick, incredibly glossy finish.
