What are waterless car wash products and how are they used? Simply put, this is a car wash using an eco-friendly yet efficient spray-on treatment that uses little or no water. Generally, this process is known as a spray-on car wash . This is the treatment used at almost all popular indoor malls and automobile dealership showrooms. This treatment uses highly lubricated chemicals to wash and polish the vehicle’s bodywork. The spray-on chemicals then encapsulate the dirt and dust particles, similar to how water removes dirt. This is an ideal treatment for vehicles with light dirt.
Waterless Car Wash – Waxing & Polishing
After using a properly dilated waterless wash formula, the vehicle is then properly dried. Once the vehicle is fully dry, the paint is protected by applying either a carnauba wax or a polymer sealant.
Polishing the vehicle’s paint is very much possible after a waterless wash service. Proper drying of the vehicle is critical prior to beginning any polishing treatment. Additional steps would include a clay bar treatment on the vehicle. This is because any residue of water on the vehicle can be harmful when applying a polish, and so extra caution must be taken before polishing.
