Is waterless car wash safe?

For those of you who recently picked up ONR, here's a very simple that shows how to use it in real time. This is a buddy of mine, he's been detailing for a long time. You can see it all in real time, that's how easy it is. I don't have any with me or I'd make my own video since his isn't the best quality, but it helps a lot.

Another video from him showing the longevity of the product and how it works as a regular wash with minimal maintenance. This is what I wish I could accomplish, but I don't know where I would wash it here, and didn't bring any with me.

im using both onr (5+ years) and freedom waterless car wash (2+ years). i use onr only when it gets dirty and the waterless for normal cleaning. they work well as long as used properly just like stu's posted videos.
 
Its looks good but he does drag the clean microfiber through the edge of the dirt spot when wiping it dry. On some softer paints that would not be kind to the paint.
 
Yeah I noticed that. My guess is he doesn't care about the paint being perfect, but just keeping it clean.

I know when I use it, I like to do a panel at a time, wash and then dry. I usually go just over a bit so I have the room to dry without touching any dry, dirty spot.
 
I wonder if I should just use ONR for my regular washing when I do use water...so sponge and bucket with ONR then wash off with water and stop using all the other car wash soaps?

Reason I ask is because I'd rather just have the best products instead of 5 various varieties. :)

Yes you could do that.
Even when I use my Zaino Car Wash, I add 1/2 a capful of ONR.

When I washed my car last, I put 1 capful of ONR with my car wash soap and found it to work much better.....but am thinking why not just only use ONR for even typical washes and not just waterless car washes since it seems to work so well? I'm thinking after I'm done with the car wash soap I may not buy anymore.
 
I had my Porsche detailed last week and they use waterless almost exclusively. I saw it for the first time and became a fan. I'll have to pick some up.

Weathers been getting cold so gearing up for the indoor winter washes. Picked this up today and am planning to use it with ONR. Impressive little thing, a few quick pumps and it sprays like no tomorrow

Holy crap that's the same pump I have and I love it!

I use it on mine all the time and it gets the job done. If you use some lube with your clay it also works really good. The thing I like about these pumps is if you pump it enough times it just keeps on spraying unlike regular bottles.
 
Good idea, just hope the internals are chemical resistant. I have had so many spray bottles with car wash chemicals in them, they love to eat away at the various parts.
