Not every dirty car needs a bucket, a hose and an hour.
Dust after a drive. Pollen on the hood. Fingerprints on the doors. A dash that needs a wipe. R1 Waterless Wash handles all of it with a spray bottle and a couple of microfiber towels.
It is the product pros keep within reach to keep coated vehicles looking fresh between full washes.
One Bottle, Three Jobs
From exterior cleaning to interior touch-ups, one versatile formula handles all three.
Quick Detailer
Removes fingerprints, bird droppings, water spots and dust before a drive, a meet or a photo.
Interior Wipe-Down
Cleans and refreshes dashboards, door panels and trim with a light, clean finish.
Ready When You Need It
Keep One Everywhere
Messes do not wait for wash day. Bird droppings, dust, pollen and fingerprints show up when you are nowhere near the garage.
- One in the garage. For a quick wipe-down before you head out.
- One in every vehicle. Keep a bottle and a clean microfiber towel in the trunk, door pocket or under the seat.
- Clean it the moment you see it. Bird droppings are acidic and can etch paint when they bake in the sun. A quick spray and wipe takes care of them on the spot.
Pick up a gallon refill to keep every bottle topped off.
Coating-Friendly Care
Why Owners of Coated Cars Love It
A ceramic coating stays at its best when you keep it clean. Harsh cleaners and dry wiping wear it down.
R1 Waterless Wash is pH balanced and gentle on coatings and PPF. Its slick formula lets the towel glide, so dirt lifts off instead of dragging across the paint. Every wipe leaves the surface glossy and water-repellent.

Pro Tip
Clean Towels Make the Difference
Use plenty of product and plenty of towels. More lubrication and a clean towel face are what keep a waterless wash scratch-free.
When to Use a Full Wash Instead
Waterless Wash is made for light to moderate dust and grime. For mud, sand, heavy road salt or caked-on dirt, rinse or wash the vehicle first.

Waterless Wash FAQs
Everything you need to know about using R1 Waterless Wash.
Is it safe on my ceramic coating?
Yes. It is gentle and pH balanced, and safe on ceramic coatings and PPF.
Will it scratch my paint?
Not when used on light dirt with clean microfiber towels. For heavy dirt, wash with water first.
Can I use it inside the car?
Yes. Spray it onto a towel and wipe down your dash, door panels and trim. Keep it off steering wheels and pedals.
Does it add protection?
It leaves a slick, water-beading finish.
How many towels do I need?
Plan on 3 to 5 microfiber towels for a full car.
Is it made in the USA?
Yes.
Why do I need two towels?
The first towel lifts the dirt and the excess product. A second clean, newer microfiber for the final wipe-down removes what is left and leaves a crisp, streak-free finish. This two-towel method is the key to a scratch-free, pro-level result.
What kind of microfiber towels work best?
Soft, plush microfiber towels that are clean and in good shape. Save your newest towels for the final wipe-down. Wash towels without fabric softener, which clogs the fibers and causes streaks.
Can I use it in direct sun?
It works best in the shade on a cool surface. In hot sun it dries too fast, which makes it harder to wipe clean. Work one small section at a time.
What surfaces can I use it on?
Outside: paint, glass, trim, chrome and wheels. Inside: dash, door panels and trim.
How often can I use it?
As often as you like. Use it after a drive, before a meet, or anytime the car needs a quick refresh.
Will it leave a greasy look on my dash?
No. Spray it on your towel, wipe, and follow with a clean, dry microfiber. It leaves a clean, natural finish.
Clean Anywhere. No Hose Required.
