Never having used these..whats the big difference between that and quick detailer? Thats my go to for those problems

From my understanding, this breaks down dirt significantly better. Quick detailer is for a already clean car. This is designed specifically for breaking down dirt so it doesn't scratch your paint when you wipe it away. In fact I accidentally started with quick detailer last night and wondered why I had to scrub so hard, switched over to this and it's dirt comes off like nothing.

So what do you do, just spray this stuff on the car and wipe it off with like the same big micro fiber towel you’d use to dry it off after washing it with the hose?

I havent used it but I know the basic concept. Spray it on, use one side of microfiber to 'wash' the layer of dirt off, then use a clean side to dry. Repeat if necessary.

Took a couple of photos since I was super early for work this morning. It was still dark out so bear with me. lol
The truck is a mess, I know. Waiting for some killer weather to spend some time on it. Hopefully sooner than later. And,....it's snowing out right now. lol :flame:
I'm also thinking about taking that front plate/plate holder off too. I hate it.

Took it to a couple different shops on the way home to diagnose a loud tick that developed when I started it after work - all 3 shops are torn between collapsed lifter or flat spot on the cam... Not just a tick now though, by the time I made it home, I have almost no power from 1500rpm up to 3500rpm, it just feels like it's falling flat on its face.

Gonna have to see if the custom guy that lives a few miles over still has the mild cam for my truck he's been trying to get me to buy.

This guy Larry goes into great detail about all things detailing (sometimes exhausting)- but just released this video on a waterless wash that explains everything pretty well


His stuff is definitely worth checking out in my opinion

Shows up fine on my pc??

I LOVE waterless wash. I only use it on the Roush though. It doesn't get very dirty at all and never sees rain/wet pavement or snow. Can't use it on my truck as it's my daily driver.
I use Adam's waterless wash and the Adam's one ply plush microfiber towels. Killer combo. Those microfiber towels are probably the softest out there. Expensive, but you get what you pay for. lol

All his products seem good, but if I am going to spend that much on a waterless system I would probably not be waterlessly washing my truck lol

I haven't totally embraced the waterless wash system yet, much to the shagrin of my detail friends. As long as I have reasonable warm weather and a garage, the ol two bucket method is still good for me. I'm trying, just not quite there yet.

It's really good if you want to keep the scratches and swirling to a minimum and if your vehicle isn't that dirty. Key words, vehicle shouldn't be really dirty. I'll never use it on my truck as it's the daily driver. My toy will be getting waterless washed indefinitely.lol
I'm really fussy with my babies.
