So, where are those puppy pads going to end up with all that toxic break dust? Where does the trash in New Jersey end up? I can understand you wanting to “help” the environment, but sometimes people should use common sense. There is no way in the world that cleaning a car and the water run off from it is going to affect the water shed one little bit. Look up your local water test results and see what the EPA found chemical wise. I guarantee you’re not going to find “break dust” or any other chemical associated with cleaning your car. If you're truly worried about the water run off I might suggest you get one of those big black water catchers I see used on the Detailing World forum. Now I'm not too sure what they do with that water, but I'm sure you could ask.
This is not a bash against you in any way, but for those of you that think Global Warming is man made....
