Yeah. I pull a hose from the laundry room and use softened water (we have terrible well water) and a foam cannon. I use waterless cleaner/wash/wax or detailer if I have a bird crap on my car and it's only a little dusty. But that's where I draw the line. BTW, Scotty calls that oxidation a "patina". The water is beading because it doesn't want to touch that thing.

As a professional car detailer, I’m shaking my head. These “scientific geniuses” are helping you ruin your paint job by basically grinding the dirt into it. You can also see the streaks of the product left on your car from the angles you’ve shown, especially on black cars. Whoever details or even waxes your vehicles is going to have a fun time fixing the things you’ve done to your truck😂.

Also. RainX and clear coats breakdown wax protection much faster than soap does, so you have to remember to rewax it more often.

True. Especially when you had mud or heavy dirt sitting on the paint, that'll scratch your paint for sure. And beware how you wipe any contaminant on it. However, you could use a waterless wash "in between" car washes. Or when you need to keep your car looking fresh when you have stored vehicles or when after drive it to a car show that has a small amount of dust on it.

For those who obviously don't know how this product works, here's the steps. 1. Car must be ceramic coated 2. Only use this method on relatively clean cars 3. Use only brand new micro fiber towels (fold towl into fours that way you have eight total clean sides and switch every panel 4. Lightly mist towel (two squarts) 5. If paint is relatively clean don't bother spraying if dirty mist the paint 6. Circular motion wipe the car down And to be clear this cleaning method only works to safely clean paint on cars that are not too dirty to begin with. I've been doing this for years on my black dually and dodge charger and I can assure you the paint is a mirror. And that takes using the right methods.

as someone who tested a few methods on my Old Bmw before the repainting.... this is by far the worst... the method that i saw work best (depending on your... patience and dedication) is to few coats of thicc soap suds from a foam cannon, give it some time for the dirt to roll off , rinse it off and apply the 2nd coat... after you see it's clean you can dry it with a Blower or apply a Ceramic coat (some can be applied to a wet car other's can't or aren't recommended, you will then see the water repellant in action (touch less wash) , also makes washing your car much more easier now the method has some variations like the 2 bucket method and such, reduces swirl marks, scratches , paint chipping but does require a hand mitten to scrub the car This method though even with a Microfiber cloth towel will damage your paint

Always rinse a car before scrubbing it with anything, I know most of y’all know, but dirt/sand/metal partials that got flung up on your car from other vehicles will scratchthe HECK out of your paint finish if you don’t rinse first

If it’s only a little dusty or something sure but if you have dirt or mud or anything big you will scratch the hell outa that paint. You’ll be rubbing the debris all over the paint causing heavy swirling. Would not recommend. Rinse first and then use it

No, 2 microfiber towels, spray, let soak for a few seconds, wipe in ONE direction with 1, BUFF with the other, and DONT do it in direct sunlight, or let it dry on the paint. Griots garage or 303 is the preferred choice.

I am guessing Scotty knows that using paper towels to clean the car is a no no. I use really soft paper towels to remove the bird dung only, then I use the microfiber towel for the rest. The rain x works really well and so does the Meguiar's. The wash does not scratch my paint at all and makes it look like it was just washed and waxed. You could use it most of the time and do a thorough wash a few times a year, depending on where you live.

It’s silicone based it may look like it’s cleaning but your smearing all the dirt on you car and scratching up your finish. It’s hide a lot of imperfections in the paint and also helps bead off water but that’s all it doing.

Waterless wash can be a great option but it has its limit. You can't use it if your car is extremely dirty so waterless wash is really only for general routine wash of light dirt and dust. Second, you'll need a soft microfiber cloth and you need to gently wipe is a single direction so you don't rub the dirt into the paint and scratch.

Just stick to the mechanics. You’re not a body guy. There’s a reason why they pressure wash a car off first before rubbing the dirt into the paint. You mind as well pair that spray cleaner with a piece of 400grit sand paper to wipe it clean.
