What is Freedom Waterless Car Wash?
Pretty much exactly what it sounds like. It, obviously, saves a lot of water that would otherwise wash down the drain, and it is biodegradable, non-toxic, and environmentally friendly. The original formula contains Montan and Carnauba wax, while formula one is wax-free.How do you use it?
It's really easy, actually. You spray it on, rub it in (with a microfiber towel), buff it off. That's it! The only catch is that you can't use the product on excessively soiled areas. The tire shine spray is even easier, you just spray it on and leave it to dry.How does it work?
This is the part that surprised me most. I was expecting it to get the dirt off, but it did more than that. It made the color of my car seem more vibrant, and it was shining like crazy!How much is it?
The package that includes one 26oz. bottle of each product (both car washes and the tire shine) and 12 microfiber towels, which is supposed to be able to do 20 washes or more, depending on car size, is $49.95. If you purchase the bottles separately, they are $24.99 each, and a pack of 12 microfiber towels is also $24.99.My Experience
I only received samples, so we didn't wash my whole car. We used the original formula on the trunk, and the results were great. I tried to get a before picture, but the dirt just didn't show up well. Trust me when I say that it was pretty gross... I seem to be in the path of the tree poop monster. Here is an after picture, anyway, so you can see the extreme shine:
As for the tire shine, I approve. I don't normally like tire shine, but this one left the tires looking pretty good.
Overall, I'm quite happy with the results of Freedom Waterless Car Wash, and if you enjoy washing your car by hand, I recommend it.

Thanks for sharing this product, it is great indeed. I will try it for sure, because it will save a lot. My biggest problem is water, which i can't get to the street so easy, because of long way from home :).

Thanks, all!

This is intriguing, but after looking at the msds sheet for the product \'freedom original\' i see it has a health hazard rating of 2, along with some other nasty chemicals. How is this considered non-toxic, environmentally friendly, and safe for me to use?

Wow! Sounds like a great idea in theory. It seems like it might be cost prohibitive though.

Dianna, I couldn't find the information on the net you're talking about, but I did email the company to ask, and I will let you know what they say.
Lisa, I was thinking that before, but if you get 20 washes out of the package, it totals about $2.50 per wash, which is much less then if you go to a car wash.

This looks like some good stuff! My car is in desperate need of some TLC, and because it is black, all that dirt really shows. I'm gonna have to try this.

Jennae, definitely give it a try. The original formula, which has wax, should make your car shine really nicely.
And Dianna, I still have not received an email back about the information you found. What I figure is that it has to be better then what is out there currently that does not make the claims that Freedom does, so even if it's baby steps, it's still moving us forward.
