Only Two Gallons?

This topic is related to the previous one; running a more eco-friendly Auto Detailing company. A common question with water conserving wash methods is, "How can you wash my car with only two gallons of water?". A rinse-less wash is a product that allows you to wash a car one panel at a time, and dry, without rinsing. It is very efficient, and if done correctly, will not cause paint damage. The concentrated solution contains polymers, as opposed to soaps and surfactants. The polymers effectively bond to both the cars paint, and the dirt. This creates a bond that allows the dirt to be suspended safely in the wash solution. A quality micro-fiber mitt used to wash the paint, traps much of the suspended dirt in its tiny fibers. The combination of these two technologically advanced products allows you to wash a car with about 1 gallon for the wheels and tires, and 1 to 2 gallons for the actual painted surfaces of the car. This is compared to traditional washing, which can easily use 20 gallons or more of water. Water conserving wash methods, such as rinse-less washes, are here to stay. They are effective, safe, and conserve a precious resource; water.
