Rinseless vs waterless for weekly washes? What do you do and why

[Klasse Act]

How are you doing your wheels? By hand with separate wash solution or a wheel bucket with wheel brushes?

I have a 2 gallon hand pump to rinse down the tires, wheels and wells. I have various brushes, including wheel woolies and Speed Master.

Hello folks - i am planning to do a waterless/rinseless hybrid if that makes sense.

1) presoak the panel with waterless wash
2) wet a MF towel with plain water
3) slightly wring out the towel
4) proceed in wiping the panel
5) dry the panel with slightly damp MF towel

Anyone else tried this before?

me i prefer pressure washer washing but will also do waterless if its not that dirty. Ive also done rinseless and they are good too.

I find waterless or rinseless washes actually take longer unless you are doing paint only. Once you start getting in to the trim, tires and glass you might as well just do a regular wash

Both. I presoak with WW and wash with RW. Works perfectly every time. Not used a hose on my car in 3 years.

I would use several towels to wipe.

Like the BillD (aka Garry Dean method)?

That, if you are using a rinse less wash. I use several towels when using the roll method.

I dont think you should dol it that way. Just use a dry waffle weave for drying thats how most do it. You could wet the towel. It's not a bad idea, but you might as well wet it with waterless wash.

Thats not really both imo, Thats just a rinseless wash. I think pre soaking is just part of the standard process. Waterless wash is using dry towels only.

What about the tires? How often do you wash your car? What about doing the undercarriage? Do you never even rinse it off in the winter?

Sorry for the machine gun like questions....
