Found this website not sure if anyone has before.

http://www.driwash.com.au/aqs/

The product might be ok I would have to check into more….. I am a bit skeptical about waterless car washing but in our day we need to look at it seriously.

Should be a good product if your car sits in a shed and gets a light film of dust over it… :lol:

I found for dust, not road crap but jsut dust, those static dusting cloths work fine. The ones my mum buys are called 'Pledge Grab It'. I generally use water but I tryed them out once and worked fine.

Yes well technically a chamois actually is not go for your paint as it drags too much removing any wax/polish on it so what you do is likely to be better than a wash and chamois……

last week i saw a bloke pull into a petrol station after it was raining heavily, he started wiping down his whole car, roof, bonnet, doors and boot, with the little window blade thing that we use to clean our front window, i thought to myself tight ass,

I just noticed that BP over here in the West have removed the 3 wash options at their car washes and upped the price to 10 and 15 dollars for the two options that remain.
I guess they see a little bit of profiteering as being an option whilst the drought remains.
