This summer, 4BabyAndMom.. er, Dad.. got a chance to try out some fabulous products from Eco Touch, an environmentally conscious car care company that creates products free of harmful chemicals and that helps to conserve water, and paper in the process.
The directions on the cleaners say to use microfiber cloths, (which I have several around the house now) but the towel pack they sent was glorious!So nice and thick, and very absorbent.
I held off on posting this review for a little longer than normal because I really wanted to put all of the products to the test. Plus, during the high heat of the summer months in Florida, if you try to clean your car without water, it's usually not going to happen because the chemicals or solution you try to use evaporates instantaneously after hitting the very hot car, (even in at dusk or dawn when the surface is "cooler".)
Anyway, now that the sun's rays are not at it's strongest, we've had more of a chance to take advantage of the entire car care kit and more specifically, the Waterless Car Wash plus Polish.
The car care kit comes packed with all of the cleaners you need to clean your car from top to bottom, inside and out. The sprayers and bottles are 100% recyclable, all of the ingredients are disclosed on the label, and all of the products are MADE IN THE USA! Gentle on the environment, but super tough on dirt, the Carpet & Upholstery cleaner removes spots very easily. The Dashboard Protect does just that and the Metal Polish is great on trim, wheels, and other metal accents.
The two products I use the most are the All Purpose and Window Clear products. The All Purpose Cleaner I've used just about everywhere in the house, as well as on the car. It really is an "All Purpose" cleaner and is great at removing unidentifiable counter goo, miscellaneous sticky stuff from the outside of the fridge, and on the back of the vinyl seats of my car.
I love, love, love, love (did I mention love?) the Window Clear cleaner the most. It keeps the windows in my car and my home streak and fingerprint free like my old blue window cleaner, without the harmful chemicals, or the nasty smell.
Brian's official opinion of the Car Wash + Polish is that it cleaned the car really well, foamed nicely, and left no residue. He needed more microfiber towels than he thought, and then had an epiphany that it's not really "waterless" since we have to throw the towels in the washing machine after he was done- but I reminded him that it would be a combined load, and that the water we would have used with a traditional wash would have been much more. We have a Jeep, so it tends to get a little muddy... it removed the dirt, but Brian thinks that on regular washes, or for families that live in non-rural areas (aka- no dirt/muddy roads, and not after off-roading) that this product would perform the best. City families could really benefit from these products too, as you could clean your whole car in the parking garage, without any hassle!
All in all, we did love all of the products, and would definitely buy them again. These are great products for green families, or for families that are trying to make steps to live a greener lifestyle.
