    Hi. i was wondering it rained.. and it kicked up alot of dirt and stuff all around my car.. and now i havent washed it cause it is so cold out like 8 degrees and i have been leaving my car outside because we are remodling our house and they need the heated garage.



    my question is ..



    is it bad for me to have dirt on my car and have it frost over and heat and refreeze with the dirt on there..



    i would wash my car but.. i only have a couple of choices to go to a spray down place.. fill up a bucket and do it there..



    or get a rinse free car wash in my heated garage(which i have back now)

    can anyone reccomend a good rinse free car wash .. i have alot dirt on my car and i dont want swirls!!! so i need somthing that will get alot of dirt off my car without harming the clearcoat.



    thanks chris



    ps: if anyone could point me to a rinse free solution that i dont have to order.. so i can go pick it up at checker // or o Reily motorsports



    sory if this post doesnt make much sense im still drunk from the night before:woot2:

    Hi Fobia,



    Your best bet is deffinitley going to be a ONR/ QEW wash in your garage. Protect All`s Quick And Easy Wash can be found at most RV dealers/ supply stores. You are not going to find Optimum`s No Rinse locally, but the Protect All you should be ok. Auto parts stores will not carry any no rinse washes.



    Hope this helps,

    It is as good, if not better, than a two bucket method rinse wash.



    As long as its not road salt, you should be fine, although I would suggest you wash it asap if there is infact road salt.

    QEW is awesome stuff. Its 30 degrees right now and I`m getting ready to go wash a car in my garage. Of all the great finds through this forum I would give them all up for QEW.
