I did a cost break down. Pinnacle and UWW+ are cheapest. While Infinite Use is highly highly concentrated, it still works out to significantly more cash - sometimes double depending on size - than those two.
For around $18 you can make 512 oz - THAT'S 4 gallons !!! - of Pinnacle . UWW+ is around the same.
They are the champs. If there was a compromise in using those products, I would say no. But they are just as good or better as the other stuff that's no concentrated, yet they cost about 1/8 the price.

Re: Cheapest waterless wash?
Remind the boss man that cheapest is generally not the best solution. Look into the Poorboy's Spray & Wipe. No screwing around with dilution, it works extremely well, available in 55 gal. drums.

Re: Cheapest waterless wash?
None of these equations for rinsless/waterless factor in the relative 'cost' of washing and drying the cleaning mitts and drying towels.
Am I crazy or is that a good point?

You may be crazy but I think you have a point. I wonder the same thing. I am using GG spray on car wash for my waterless currently but I go through 6/7 towels on my 4 door sedan whereas when I use my pressure washer and foam cannon I use 1 to 2 towels for drying.

Actually I doing mostly touch less these days. I wash weekly if not more and my black XC90 gets swirls if I look at it funny so by using a pressure washer and foam cannon I don't actually touch the paint until I dry. I can't bring myself to buy a $93, metro sidekick, air blower for the car.
