Seems like a head of steam is building up in this section, with some good stuff being discussed

The piece that is still missing for me is knowing what products ARE considered suitable for eco friendly detailing?

There are some obvious ones, like ONR washing, but can we pull together a list of products that would meet the criteria, ideally stuff that is fairly mainstream and available in the US and internationally?

I would like suggestions for:

1. wheel cleaner
2. glass cleaner
3. polishes - possibly not a category that might have the biggest impact
4. waxes & sealants - some seem to have a very high level of solvents etc
5. towels & cloths - any recycled ones available or any that can be recycled easily?
6. degreasers
7. QD's

I'm not exactly sure what the standard is, but maybe people can post recommendations with their rationale for why they recommend it.

thanks

Damon
