Description

Wash, wax, and shine—anywhere, no hose required.

Your grab‑and‑go bottle for fast, no‑rinse cleaning. This water‑based formula blends premium soaps, surfactants, and lubricants with a polymer wax that leaves a glossy, protected finish. Ideal for apartments, water restrictions, show lots, motorcycles, and quick turnarounds.

Pocket it in the door cubby. Great for bikes and chrome—clean with no water spots when used as directed.


Why detailers love it

  • True waterless: Clean, gloss, and protect in one step—no running water.
  • High lubrication = safer wipes: Encapsulates dirt so it lifts into the towel instead of dragging.
  • Leaves protection: Polymer wax adds gloss and slickness (not a sealant).
  • Ready to Use (RTU): No mixing—just spray and wipe.
  • Works wet or dry, sun or shade: Shade/cool panels = easiest wipe‑off.

How to use

Pro tips: Work one small panel at a time. Use many clean, plush microfibers (folded into 8 sides). If the surface is visibly sandy, gritty, or caked with mud/salt, pre‑rinse with water first—waterless is for light/medium dust and road film.

  1. Spray a light, even mist onto the panel. For stubborn spots, let it penetrate briefly.
  2. With a clean microfiber, wipe gently in one direction or a smooth S‑pattern to lift dirt—don’t grind it in.
  3. Flip to a clean side (or switch towels) as soon as a side becomes soiled.
  4. Buff immediately with a second dry towel to reveal a glossy, just‑waxed finish.

Usage guidance

  • Typical use is 2–4 oz per average vehicle, depending on size/soiling—so a 16oz bottle covers roughly 4–8 vehicles. Your mileage will vary.
  • Start high, work down. Save dirtiest areas (rockers/lower rear) for last with fresh towels.
  • On warm days, reduce product per panel to minimize flash. Re‑mist if needed.
  • Can be used on a lightly wet or dry vehicle. Shade gives the most effortless wipe‑off.

Safety & storage

  • Common‑sense rule: If it looks too dirty for a towel, it’s too dirty for waterless—pre‑rinse first.
  • Store sealed, upright, in a cool, dry place. Protect from freezing/extreme heat.
  • Keep out of reach of children. For external automotive use only.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is this a concentrate?
No—Ready to Use. Just spray and wipe.

Will it scratch my paint?
When used as directed with plenty of clean, plush microfiber towels and light pressure, it’s designed to clean scratch‑free. Avoid using on gritty or muddy surfaces without pre‑rinsing.

What does the “+ Wax” do?
It leaves a thin layer of polymer wax that boosts gloss and slickness. It’s not a sealant.

Can I use it in the sun?
Yes, but it’s easiest in the shade or on cool panels. Work smaller sections and buff promptly if it flashes.

Which surfaces are safe?
Paint/clear coat, glass, plastic trim, chrome/metal, and painted/powder‑coated wheels. Do not use on tires, carpet, or upholstery.

Wet or dry vehicle?
Either. It works on a lightly wet or dry surface; shade gives the best results.

Motorcycles and chrome?
Yes—great for bikes and keeps chrome spot‑free when used as directed.

Can I refill this bottle from the gallon?
Absolutely. The 16oz is perfect as a working bottle; refill from the 1‑Gallon to save.

How many towels do I need?
Plan on several plush microfibers per vehicle. Fold into quarters and switch to a clean side often.

Can I use it on matte/satin or PPF?
The product contains glossing wax; on matte/satin or textured PPF, test a small area first. If sheen changes, use a dedicated matte‑safe cleaner instead.

  1. Steve Mchaul

    Got some for my Harley Davidson Sportster and it works great. I keep a bottle in my bag and touch up whenever needed.

  2. Bob Masner

    I bought a bottle of this a reese fire station’s car show this weekend and I am very happy with it. I was nervous about using it on my camaro at first but I’m really glad I did because it works great. I didn’t have time to clean it before the show and this allowed me to clean it up really nice while parked in my show space. Keep up the good work guys.

  3. Gerald Shaw

    So far, so GREAT! Tried it out on the large, partially faded front of my fifth wheel RV. Cleaned it right up and brought it right back to showroom condition! Impressive! Can’t wait to try it elsewhere.

  4. Mike Dempsy
