Default waterless wash

Who here uses a waterless detailing system like freedom wash? I have been reading this and it would be nice for winter time for sure to keep truck clean since I could keep it inside to clean

I'm curious as well. I think that a waterless wash is missing the key historical component of a "wash"... the water. That detail makes people hesitant I would think.

I don't like it, tried the stuff and there were a lot of streaks because of what its made of. Although it does get all the bird ***** and bug crap off the truck real easy I will never again use it for washing my entire truck

I know that i wouldnt replace the regular wash but would like a quicker clean once a week and spend less time. Do you know what brand you used?

I've posted this in another thread, but I used BugSlide. I picked it up at a Harley dealership in Maryland. You just spray it on and use a micr-fiber cloth to buff it out. It cleans and waxes. Leaves a nice gloss too, it can be used on all surfaces on the exterior of my truck. I normally use a long handled California Duster on my truck before using the BugSlide.

Check out detailersdomain.com. They sell this product from adam's car cleaning products that is a waterless car wash. I think there is even a video on how to use it properly. Hope that helps.
