I use Aero Cosmetics Wash Wax. It's a great product, but there are tons of good options for waterless washing.

Blower from my garage vac works great to clean off dust and pollen.

Absolutely a stand out product. Works fantastic on coated cars. As far as coated cars go there is nothing better than this. Works in dilution ratios of waterless, rinseless, and a detailer. I buy it by the gallon. All my cars are coated, so I have not input on traditional LSP. For cars that are coated it is just unbelieveable how well it works.

Here is a few pictures from a planned review, how to comming soon.
Note the wipe and roll technique. This is just a quick few pictures. I have used Optima, Blackfire, Ultima, and this product is a step way above.

I will be doing a full pictorial review and write up soon. The weather here in Nor Cal has been a bit crazy as you have probably seen. Current conditions are heavy rain, and full rivers. Currently the ZL1 is packed and ready to evacuate. Once past some of the weather I will post the review as I plan to go more in detail on the how to part. Threads to come will start off with Microfiber inspection, storage and care. Waterless washing, Rinseless washing, coating application, coating aftercare, coating repair.

A preview is here in this thread. Once I started it became very apparent that it need to be broken into separate threads.

Optimum wash and wax has worked really well for me. Leaves an incredible shine that last for weeks. It also makes a very cost effective detailer spray in higher concentration. The original formula also works well, just not as glossy.

I've been using the Aero Cosmetics. I try not to use waterless wash when it's dirty because you end up using a lot more, I only use it for light dust from the garage.

+1 on the Carpro EcH2o. This stuff is great and conccentrated so it can be used for QD, waterless, rinseless, and more.

Also, Adam's Waterless Wash is a very solid product as well.

Thats the way to buy it. Btw have you used it as a detailer with Car Pro reload mixed in yet? That mix blew me away. I have tried it with Gyeon cure as well, I think reload and cure might be the same product relabeled. Anyhow it is outstanding, and has blown the rest away for me.

I haven't yet, but i've definitely heard about that from a few different people. What are the ratio's you are using in the mixture?
