Comparing Water Usage in Car Washes

  • Commercial Car Wash: uses 40 gallons of water or more.
  • ‘Bucket and Brush' method: uses about 110 gallons per wash.
  • Freedom WaterLess wash: You can wash an average size vehicle with 4 to 7 oz. of product.

Why Freedom?

There are several different waterless car wash products on the market. Not all of them are effective and some are actually harmful to your vehicle. This fact has helped create the rumors that waterless car washes scratch vehicle surfaces.


To be effective, the waterless product will contain a combination of wetting agents, lubricants, detergents and protectants. The detergents and wetting agents combine in a way that allows them to soften and then emulsify dirt and grime upon contact, effectively releasing them from the surface of the vehicle.


The protectant is typically a unique substance that provides a bonded layer of protection against any remaining abrasive material not already broken down by the detergents and wetting agents. It contains extensive cross linked polymers, which make it extremely effective as a car wax or glaze.


Freedom products are applied by spraying them lightly onto the vehicle. Upon contact, the product emulsifies the dirt. At the same time, the application process initiates the cross chain polymer linking process that results in an extremely shiny, highly protective glaze finish. All this happens very rapidly due to the balance of ingredients within the product itself.


The product is removed with a micro fiber towel using a light wiping motion. A separate micro fiber towel is used to buff and shine the newly cleaned surface area. The application process does not involve high pressure scrubbing. The application process also does not require "soaking" - using a high volume of product. When used in compliance with its "directions for use," the vehicle will shine and water will bead off of it.


Freedom Waterless Car Wash is a high-end car-care product for use on any car, truck, bike, boat or plane. It is made with the finest ingredients available. With proper application, the only water that will be used during the wash is that which is already in the bottle as part of the overall formula.
