i have no idea , but - waterless cleaning sounds iffy ? as water gets all dust etc off- of you start trying to clean a car without that surely you could potentialy scratch the paint work if any grit etc is on the car ? but £20/30 for a litre of it, youd do half of that cleaning a whole car once, and it doesnt take long for it to get dirty again anyway, so whats the point ?
what i use on my bmw - once all properly detailed and waxed with a a few layers, is "demon shine" -amazing stuff, give the car a quick hose off then a go over with a sponge and shampoo , then watering can with the hose in it all off
then demon shine and a microfibre cloth whist wet, comes up a superb shine and no streaks/water marks etc , look out for it in asda on offer in 2L bottles for like £2 !! its expensive in halfrauds

That's why I won't ever let the little dudes in the supermarket car parks wash our cars - they might as well use sandpaper as they don't have anywhere near enough water to rinse it properly first. Mind you, they never seem to harass me in the RR - too much mud for them, I guess.
I'm going to have to say I have used it... my dad thought it was amazing when he seen it and just decided to get some... I was wary of it I have to say.
Tried it on my Black Corsa D and it didn't leave any scratches. I was very careful though. I still don't like using it. I have used it since but only after I've washed and rinsed the car as it does leave a very nice shine, I'm not convinced it has good protection though, its just too watery and fine.

I've used it on cars and my caravan with excellent results. My brother had some and told me to have a go-like most people I was a little sceptical-but have to say I've now been using it for quite a few years.
It's also the best thing the wife has used for cleaning the windows.

I'm a wash, rinse and good polish fan myself, but my wife asked me to get her some grease lighting for ease of use.
Got a black focus and was very skeptical about her using it without a wash and rinse,
But on seeing the finished result i was very impressed, no scratches or marks.
but i'm still a wash with water fan, with a good polish

Yeah i use Collinite 915 wax, not cheap but lasts ages and the water beeds off especialy after the paint has been clayed. Do it nice, or do it twice as they say!
