Full Description

Chemical Guys EcoSmart Concentrate is a waterless wash and wax: mist it onto a dirty panel, wipe the dirt away with a microfibre towel, then buff to a gloss. No hose, bucket or running water is needed.

Hyper-surfactants, slick lubricants and a micro-refined clay lift and suspend dirt so it can be wiped off with less risk of scratching, and natural carnauba wax leaves shine and protection behind. Chemical Guys says the current formula is more concentrated than before, with 30% more carnauba and improved UV protection, and that its anti-static finish repels dust.

It is a concentrate: dilute it up to 16:1 with clean water. One 473ml (16 oz) bottle makes 2 US gallons (about 7.5 litres) of ready-to-use spray. Filtered water (RO or DI) gives better results than hard tap water. Use it on paint, glass, polished metal, clear plastics and wheels, in a spray bottle or pump sprayer.

How to use

  1. Dilute up to 16:1 in a spray bottle or pump sprayer, stronger for heavier dirt.
  2. Mist one panel at a time.
  3. Wipe the dirt away with a clean microfibre towel.
  4. Buff to a gloss with a second, dry microfibre towel.

Expert Notes

Chemical Guys EcoSmart Hyper Concentrated Waterless Car Wash & Wax is a 473ml concentrate built for cleaning and waxing a vehicle without a hose or bucket. Chemical Guys states it dilutes at 16 to 1 and that one bottle can make up to 2 gallons of ready-to-use solution, enough to wash a car with only a few ounces of water. The formula is blended with hyper-efficient lubricating agents and gloss enhancers and is suitable for paintwork, glass, plastic, rubber, stainless steel, metal and aluminium. It suits owners who wash between full details or park where running water is impractical, and pairs naturally with microfibre towels and spray bottles rather than shampoo and bucket kit.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Paintwork
  • Glass
  • Plastic trim
  • Rubber trim
  • Stainless steel
  • Aluminium
  • Cars, vans and motorcycles
  • Driveways and garages

Caution: Dilute to the stated ratio before use and test on a small hidden area first, especially on delicate trim.
