Save Water and $$ With Green Earth Waterless Car Wash

This isn’t a gadget, but I think this is pretty cool product. Not only do you save water, but save money taking your car to get washed. If you have limited space to wash your car yourself, like a car port, this would come in quite helpful as well.

Conserve water next time you wash your car with Green Earth Waterless Car Wash. All you do is mist your car with the spray bottle and then wipe it down, no water required. The wash uses a cleaning method and ingredients that are apparently similar to what they use to clean race cars, but the primary purpose is to save on water consumption (the typical car wash, according to their site, uses between 20 to 45 gallons of water). One 32 ounce bottle is good for about 10 car washes, so at around $20 for a bottle you’re saving money (if you normally go to a $6+ car wash) and you’re saving tons of water.
A typical car wash uses between 20 to 45 gallons of water per car. A home wash can use between 80 and 140 gallons.

There are approximately 240 million vehicles in the U.S. If even half of those cars used Green Earth Waterless Carwash, once a month for one year, we would save 28 billion gallons of water. This is the equivalent of 40,000 Olympic size pools or 560 million baths.
