DP waterless wash extreme test

[Bigpat]

I just washed my mothers car with DP as a Rinseless wash using a garden pressure sprayer as my way to soak car.... i made the solution with about 6oz to 1 1/4 gal water and sprayed the car down to the dripping point used lightly sprayed micros and went to it, my phone was dead for befores but here are afters with megs 40 on tires.

My car is in the garage melting snow right now but will be giving DP the ultimate test as far as i can guess...... heres what its going to have to compete with (i have PLEANTY of micros to use and will be making car wet to rinseless wash proportions.

after pics to follow

i dunno man, I'd hose that stuff off (garden hose or coin-op) before thinking of doing a rinseless on it

I'm sure it would work but at what cost? To be a true test, you'd have to know the condition of the paint before the wash and then after.

You'd also only need to do one or two panels at most to determine if there was marring b/c the panels were too dirty.

I polished to about 90% before winter, as far as i can tell i didnt get much marring or damage, it came clean but i "pre soaked" and used wet towels, it took about 15 towels using all 8 sides and im happy with it, next time i will change it up and pre rinse at a coinop, just a test to me and thought i would share it... im very impressed... also i used about a gallon of wash on my car so you can imaging how wet the panels were

Pat,

The Pontiac looks great but I agree the BMW needs some rinsing before you hit it with a rinseless Wash....

was the silver car as dirty as the white one?

You get a little OCD when your car is black. Some of the testing I've done in getting to my preferred rinseless wash media has left some marring on my vehicle and it wasn't even half as dirty as yours.

did my fiesta the exact same way only it was with ONR and it suffered no marring at all, the secret is a good high concentrate presoak with warm water

Im very pleased with how the car came out!! Very minor marring if any as well

I am a believer

Wow Pat nice job. In the before pictures I didn't realize the wheels were chrome and in the pictures above I was like wait.... lol

$3.99 for 93! Damn I last filled up on Friday at $3.77 for 93 by me. Did your gas stations jack all their prices up from the storm?

Great looking BMW!

I've got a love hate relationship with waterless washes. Here in SW Mich we can get some rough weather and a lot of the time cars are to dirty for anything but a regular wash or a coin-op.

Yay for an insulated garage and a warm water line to my Karcher
