Light Dust after a wash?

Some municipalities forbid using a hose to wash your car. We're not at that point here in the SF Bay Area, but we're entering the fourth year of severe drought, and the Sierra snowpack is at around 20% of normal, so I would not be surprised if we see that restriction this summer. I used my foam cannon and pressure washer on my wife's IS convertible this weekend and still got a lot of dirty looks, even though I probably used less than six gallons of water total (less than I would with a waterless wash).
Some people live in condos or other MDUs where there is no hose or car wash area.

You need to realize that sometimes people don't have a choice.

Good video! I subbed to him recently. Yup, it all the depends on the condition. Traditional wash is always best and my favorite. Just got the Reset too. Waiting for it to stop raining!
I either do rinseless wash which proves to be safe for light dust or even medium dust or wait till some more days to do a full 2 bucket car wash all at once.
Quick detailer, waterelss wash, duster, if used not carefully, can create minor swirls. Been there, done that and I don't want to risk so no more of this.
If you, however, decide to still do waterless wash. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you watch this video on HOW to do it PROPERLY!
