Haven't seen this mentioned before so thought I would advise aussie members.
I saw advertised on oo.com.au a product called eco EZ , a waterless car wash, similar to the one discussed at length in another thread but available in the States only.
It cost around $40.00 by the time you pay delivery charges but I gave it a go anyhow.
So far I would say it is very good. Every day I need to drive a short section on a unmade road and the back of my car gets dusty so now I simply apply some of this product when I get home and it cleans and shines like new. It comes in a 946 ml bottle (1 Qt) made in the usa and is available still at http://www.oo.com.au or on ebay for a little more in $$$
I found it to be good so thought others in Australia might to.

Two questions papa .. would you use the product on the whole car in one go AND what amount of dust/dirt would convince you that the traditional method would be safer.

PS .. just went to the website and it is refreshing to see that they don't play the green conscious card .. No claims of saving millions of gallons of water at every wash and pics of kinked hoses about a kilometre long.

First Question: When I first got it I tried in on a small area, and it worked!, so then I finished up doing my whole car. So yes, I would and it worked well.
Question two: Can't answer that as my car hasn't got that dirty since I got it but I guess if it is caked in mud, say from a bush bash or something similar, then a traditional pre wash would be advisable but as I said before have not got my VT that dirty yet. I tend to keep mine clean.

I got the beastie Opti Coated when I bought it, so my midweek wash is usually a spray over the panels with Optimum no rinse mixed to quick detailer spec - that costs me $3 to make up a litre of quick detailer, including $1 for the litre of distilled water - between that and a fortnightly wash (either a two bucket wash with ONR or a quick pressure spray and a microfiber dry down afterwards) and its pretty much always glossy and ready to play. I'd give the Eco EZ a go, but Optimum No Rinse is $29.70 for a litre, and 30ml in 5l of water is all it takes to wash the car, no rinsing - plus you get to see all the dirt bonded in the bottom of the bucket, which is way cool

Trick would be to get it when they're doing site wide free shipping - say Anzac Day, probably

Agree Adelaidesrt I will be keeping my eye out for when they have one of those days.
