Kozak Dry Cloth???
Anyone ever try or know how these Kozak Cloths perform?
It's a tough one to grasp. I'm temporarily in an area of no washing cars (rules) so I was going with waterless wash. Maybe one of these between ww's.
Kozak Dry Wash Cloths are still a great way to clean and shine your vehicle between details.

It's impregnated with some kind of chemical whose smell I know but haven't been able to identify. Pepsodent? Beemans? :shrug: At any rate, you can only turn to a clean surface so many times. And it isn't washable or you lose the impregnated whateveritis. (technical term!) I also experienced some smearing on some dark surfaces.
If you're in a wash ban area I'd suggest PB's Spray & Wipe or the Ultima waterless product. I tested S&W on a winter-cruddy black car that no one in their right mind would use a waterless wash. Clean, shiney, no marring but I used a LOT of MF towels!
Where are you experiencing a washing ban? The Cal reservoirs have to be just about overflowing with the excessive snow pack runoff this year.

Thanks for the excellent input TLM. I felt crazy for even asking since it seemed to go against my belief system, but had to ask. No water ban. We are in an apartment waiting to find a house in a new town. It's the apt complex rules to not wash cars on site.

Jimmy, I'm in the same boat. I use and love UWW+ on my truck. If its really dirty, I go to a local car wash and use their power washer and the use the UWW+.

There ya go! In Central CA it isn't like you're going to need to blast ice and salt off your ride.
Nice Avator, Jimmie. Yosemite? Where ya at... down 49 somewhere?

Re: Kozak Dry Cloth???
these towels "still" scare me ... got one in my first kit order around 2001-2002 and never used it.

Re: Kozak Dry Cloth???
I have a couple of them . I use them for light dust. On wheels and motors I use a old one. Its something that you would use every day, not when the car is very dirty. There great for Limos., trucks and fleet cars.

Re: Kozak Dry Cloth???
I love the Kozak cloths! Have been using them for over 10 years on my own cars - my dad got me into them - he used them for over 40 years. Used on my 2008 Mercedes AMG CL63 black - worried about scratching - but was blown away at how well it worked and definitely did not scratch. Clearly if the car is really dirty you want to wash it, but I was living in NYC and wiping the car down every day or two - I went a year and a half without a wash and had people ask me how often my car was washed all the time! Highly recommend them!
