I will "ditto" that, except to qualify it to say "warm water" instead of hot. I suspect that with hot water you run a risk of stripping the wax off of the car.

All this waterless talk has me on edge and giving me anxiety. It's hard enough maintaining a finish with proper washing techniques (including water).

Does it make it look better than doing nothing? I'm sure, but it's the equivalent to using your fingers to pick up dirt on your carpet versus vacuuming.

Just giving you guys a hard time, but not my cup of tea. I'm checking out

Would this waterless solution work for personal daily showering/bathing??

Sure it would..... Well, you would smell like a spring flower, at least! This Meguiar's stuff actually smells "nice" IMO!

Yep! The only reason any "detailer" would recommend a gas station wash is to keep himself in business.
