How To: Eco Waterless Wash Your Car

Take a peek at this video I put together about waterless washing.  This method will remove dirt, water spots, bird droppings, dead bugs & road grime.  While using this technique remember the following tips:

  1. Spray plenty of wash solution on the vehicle.
  2. Work one panel at a time.
  3. Wipe solution off lightly. (no pressure)
  4. Turn towel to a new side often.
  5. Get a new towel when needed.
  6. Buff off haze.

Instructions Listed below.

  1. Start with a mildly dirty car (dust is okay, mud is not)
  2. Pull your car into a shaded area.
  3. Put your waterless wash solution in a spray bottle (or pump bottle like shown)
  4. Start spraying an upper panel of the car (work top of the vehicle down)
  5. Use a clean microfiber cloth, and gently wipe the solution away. (DO NOT wipe over dry areas)
  6. Buff off haze.
  7. Repeat until entire exterior is clean. (solution works on windows & wheels as well)
