they come to your house and do all the work there.

I use the waterless car wash called nowet on both my Subaru's the finish is fantastic and the swirl marks disappear altogether, I will never ever wash any of my cars with water again. If your really impressed with it I would suggest that you keep using a no water clean for your cars, the guy that does mine is Paul on 0403 249 955. Let me know what you think.

Do they use the same waterless wash that you can buy from the shops? I have seen it on the shelf but never got it as its more expensive and i didn't know how good it was with the hardcore dirt on my car!

Not really sure if it's the same or somewhat different to what you can buy off the shelf, I think it comes down to knowing how to use the product properly and using the right sort of product for different areas of the car i.e. glass and tyres and most importantly using the appropriate cloth to put it on with and wipe it off with, from what I've been told.

yea, was wondering how it works too, do they just wipe it with some chemical on a clean cloth and the car is sparkling clean?


hm...
