    DP Waterless Auto Wash



    Got to try the DP Waterless today.
    Truck had been washed w HyperWash on Friday. Yesterday we had some nasty wind and rain, and the truck had dirty water spots all over it.



    *Description: DP Waterless Auto Wash uses a high lubricity formula to gently, yet effectively, remove dirt, dust, oils, and other above-surface contaminates from your vehicles paint, glass, chrome, plastics, and metals. Further enhanced with UV protectant, DP Waterless Auto Wash leaves behind an extra layer of protection while also enhancing the existing gloss. No bucket, water, or hose required!

    *Directions: Liberally spray the surface to be cleaned and wipe away using plenty of clean MF towels. Flip your towel to a clean side and buff away excess product. Continue around entire vehicle.




    I have to say that I am impressed with this. It smells great (tangerine?) and it is pretty slick. But, the real test is in the cleaning. The DP gets an “A” in this category.

    Definitely something to consider if you need a good waterless product. I would also not hesitate to use this as a clay lube.

    Thanks to Meghan for sending me this to try out. It did not disappoint!!

    Thanks for sharing, how would you compare the lubricity to something like Uber @ WW ratio? Also, which towel is that?

    I have only used Uber in the rinseless form, so I cannot make a fair comparison. The DP is really slick for a waterless though. My go-to for that is usually Griot's Speed Shine, and the DP is every bit as slick.

    The towel is a Chinchilla towel. I got these from AG years ago, and they are still my favorite "final buff" towel for products like the DP & Speed Shine.

    Thanks for the review of this (new)
    DP product. Got to give it try.

    FWIW:
    IMO, the (old) DP 4-n-1 was the schnitz;
    especially when used with The ShMITTs!

    Yup! Totally agree I thoroughly enjoyed using this product. Great smell, lubricity, cleaning ability and leaves a nice glossy finish.

    Re: DP Waterless Auto Wash

    I'm not sure why, but I put this product away a year ago and quite frankly forgot I had it.

    I don't use WW a ton, and I guess it just got shuffled into the mix........... :/

    Anyway, I was going through some things last night and found it. I used it today in the exact way I described in my review above, and I am still a fan of this.

    It will now stay behind the seat of the truck (until winter) so it will be handy.

    Pretty bad when you have so many products that you can "lose" a good one like this for a year......

    Thanks for sharing Paul. I just purchased and received a couple bottles as I wanted to try it, now looking forward to trying it as soon as the Pacific NW weather cooperates. Since living on the road in our 5th wheel, waterless wash has become my world.

    Re: DP Waterless Auto Wash

    Finally got a break in the weather here and had a chance to try out the DP Waterless Wash. I washed our kayaks and my truck, all three were definitely in need of some love and I was impressed with the results. The tangerine smell was pleasant to work with, it was easy to use and removed all dirt easily and with little effort. I am a longtime Griots Garage user and love their various washes, but as the DP Waterless Wash seems to be a little less expensive, this just may be my new go to waterless wash.
