Recently moved to NW Georgia. Love the area, the only problem is I am not allowed to wash my car at home because of the drought. Major bummer!

 

YIIKES...

 

 

It may be a bummer but being without water would be worse!

We drove through that area a few weeks ago and the reservoirs where scary looking. Never seen anything that low.

Hope for a rainy April as you guys need it down there before things get any worse.

 

What part of NW GA

 

We keep getting rain but I don't think its enough to get the reservoirs where the need to be.

 

they are where I live

 

I feel you...I have not washed my car since last summer!!!!

 

That's the thing I love about having a very good deep well. I can clean my car when ever I want. Although I do go to the Car Wash more than home washing.

 

I have been using a waterless car wash since 1993. It is called Dri Wash and Guard. If the car is really filthy, you should not use it until it is washed to remove mud, salt, etc.

But for those times when it is just dusty, which is most of the time, for me, it works wonders. It also applies a UV protectorant and sealer. You can even use it on the glass, and bugs wipe off with a damp cloth. Wipers do not squeek.

I have never had it scratch a car, to include my current GT/CS. They have a long list of products that do not require water. Google the product name for a retailer near you, or you can mail order as I do.

I am not affiliated with the company, just a happy consumer. I apply the product using the spray bottle and cotton towel, do not be stingy!!! I then use micro fiber cloths to wipe it off in lieu of a cotton towel, wipe off with one and lightly buff with the second. In sure both are always clean. For a really killer shine, wipe down with a damp towel after buffing and then dry with the micro towel. You can wash the car, between uses, with just plain water, no soap. I usually wipe her down, in the garage, after a drive to remove the road dust. A half bucket of water and two cloths, no hose.

Hope this is helpful.

 

Buy bottled water and wash it!!

 

I live south of atlanta and our water ban is not as tight anymore so i can get away with washing it.

we have a ban in the summer, even addresses on even days, and same for odd. And certain hours of the day.
I did not follow the ban, bad me

 

Flintstone, just south of Chattanooga

 

hopefully we'll get enough rain for the ban to be lifted here too.

 

been there done that. dont like it...

 

Pull it into the garage, close the door, wash away!

 

Use Prolong's Waterless Wash and Shine...I've used it for years (I can't remember the last time I've had to use a bucket and water)...a bit expensive, but definitely worth it. I go through about 2 gallons a year (for all of my outside cars)...Use it about 2 times a week and your baby will always look great (use Invisible Glass spray for the windows).

Fantastic Stuff...

Not to rain on John's parade...but I tried Dri Guard once and I've found Prolong's Waterless Wash and Shine product to be much better (easier to apply...even in a little wind, smells better, cleans better, and leaves a wonderful shine)....you can even "thin it out" a little with some water and it still works great. You will need to get a sprayer for it...spray it on lightly and it will work great (a little more for your rocker panels, wheels, etc. where there will be a bit more dirt)...

For touch-ups in-between I use Eagle One's Wipe and Shine (instead of Meguiar's Quik Detailer)...leaves a slicker surface...

 

I haven't either - my car looks terrible.
