Great topic, Lee. Here on the Canadian west coast and with my own 996, I made a big move this year to my cleaning protocol, using a range of products from "DIY Detail" (US based) with tools and techniques very similar to what Maz does here. Rinseless or "rinse-less" has been a boon for me.
I had to use a waterless wash at the NEC Classic car show after a wet drive up when I had a car on a Club stand as water wasn’t really available. It did the Job ok😊
I depend on rainwater tanks for my water supply, living rurally in New Zealand. During summer that supply is limited, and I can't use my usual snowfoam/shampoo wash. The cars don't get as dirty as winter driving and rinseless wash is the perfect solution. A good supply of towels is essential!
@GetUpFalcon good question, which I reflected on while writing that. We have a front loading washing machine which is very economical on water use. I save up all my towels over multiple washes (my wife thinks I'm nuts having so many towels) and wash all together. But yes, it takes precious water!
Interesting video. I’ve never been brave enough to try this. Living in a hard water area it’s quite tricky to keep my basalt black 996 gleaming especially if the rinse water dries before you can towel the car off.
Give me a hose, bucket and car soap. much easier and quicker. This rinseless wash makes no sense unless your in a car show and you didn't have a chance to wash your car, or maybe not.
You're kidding, right? Yes you can wash with just a bucket of water and a cloth. Drag all that grit lifted out of your bucket that's come off the car, wipe it across the paint and create beautiful artistic swirls.
@@MagicAyrtonforever you're assuming all the grit comes out of your mitt (with careful rinsing quite possible) and that all the grit is trapped by the grit guard (extremely unlikely on a very dirty car). A single bucket as your only source of water for a wash is simply very bad practice.
The problem with these rinseless wash videos is that they always wash clean cars. I want to use the stuff in rural Canada during the winter. I don’t know how I could apply no pressure on the microfibre cloth while trying to remove a combination of salt, sand and mud.
@GetUpFalcon You are probably right. I should hose it down then use the rinseless wash. I will have to pick my days though. When it is very cold, the water ices up very quickly on the car's surface.

How do you wash the towels?

I use Rinseless wash 2 year ago on a soft black paint.
Its faster, easiest, and safe for the paint...
Damn speak about what you know or don't speak
I don’t get it
Just get a bucket of water and wash it 🤔
It’s a car

@@gregspark9845 Use a grid for the bottom of the bucket.. Doesn't take a genuis..

For shows and road trips this is a great solution.

In rural Canada I’d imagine the hose pipe in addition to the peace pipe would provide the ideal solution 🤙

This was far from a clean car, you can see it in the 50/50.
