"Drywash" compared to water washes

[BWG707]

I believe there is a time and place for waterless washes. If possible I use a waterless (car not very dirty) and I find the main advantages to be- 1) leaves no water spots, 2) much faster and easier than a traditional wash. The biggest disadvantage would be price, and it's harder to clean all the little spaces and seams. As far as the price is concerned, I think it's a fair trade off, especially for me because I have a bad back problem that has caused nerve damage and using a waterless is much less physically strenuous.

Looks good man - I'll need to PM you for those products.



Yeah man - that was exhaustion talkin last night. 17 hours yesterday was from working on some full interiors and Semis - didn't even involve any drywashing. Im definitely not trying to say that this method is better than traditional washes at all - I am the last person that would say my method is better than others after the heat Ive taken over the years. Starting this thread was mainly cause it was on my mind at the time and I like others to see that there are other ways other than in the box type detailing. We can have a car prepped with this method in 45 minutes to correct paint, not much slower in my opinion than traditional wash. I don't think efficiency is the problem for most here, I believe it is the idea of detailing without use of water or a new method when one is used to their method. It is a completely different way of doing things but I like to share that a high quality detail can still be performed. I enjoy reading everyones work and thoughts here and LOVE AG - just feel at times Im catchin a beat down for sharing or talking about this method..... I can say one thing Kris, and please don't argue this....... I love you man :kiss:

And I love you, ha. :dblthumb2:

And don't hate me...45 minutes is a long time to prep. We can typically do 3 vehicles in 45 minutes with the pressure washer. Shorten those days man, you're gonna kill yourself!
