CeraSlick Waterless Wash — How to Use

Correct dosage for all three CeraSlick wash concentrates: 1 mL per gallon = 4 full pumps of a calibrated 0.25 mL dispenser. For 32 fl oz of water, use 1 full pump. Optional for best results: start with reverse-osmosis (RO) or deionized (DI) water. Mix all needed sprayers and buckets, and prepare clean towels before washing.

CeraSlick Waterless Wash — Complete Instructions

For lightly soiled vehicles. Uses a sprayer only, no wash bucket or hose.

1. 1. Prepare the sprayer and towels before washing. Mix diluted Waterless solution at 1 mL per gallon (4 × 0.25 mL pumps), or 1 pump per 32 oz. No bucket or garden hose is needed for light soil. Set aside three separate clean microfiber towels: a first-contact wash towel, a second-contact towel dampened with diluted Waterless solution, and a completely dry finishing towel.
2. 2. Optional bird-dropping and spot treatment. Wet stubborn spots with diluted solution and allow deposits to soften. Do not scrub. For heavy mud or sand, choose Rinseless or Polymer Wash with appropriate pre-cleaning instead.
3. 3. Dwell pre-spray for soiled areas. On dirtier sections, pre-soak using diluted Waterless solution and allow a brief wet dwell. Keep the area wet. This is separate from the later panel-by-panel spray.
4. 4. Panel-by-panel spray-to-runoff. Immediately before towel contact, spray the current panel until it is fully wet and loose dirt is visibly carried off in flowing runoff. Do not make contact while loose grit remains.
5. 5. First contact — dripping-wet microfiber. Spray a clean folded microfiber with diluted Waterless solution until dripping wet. Glide over the panel with minimal pressure in straight vertical passes on side panels. Rotate to a clean towel face after each pass and overlap adjacent passes by about 15% to avoid missed strips. Retire visibly soiled towels.
6. 6. Second contact — diluted-Waterless-dampened microfiber. Use a different clean towel dampened with the same properly diluted solution and wrung until damp. Gently make a second pass to verify that no soil remains and to level/remove most remaining liquid.
7. 7. Final dry — separate completely dry microfiber. Immediately follow with a third, clean, completely dry towel. Lightly collect the remaining droplets before the surface dries. No final hose rinse is required.

Important: Work on cool panels out of direct sun; prevent the mixed wash from drying. For sand, mud or visible abrasive grit, remove loose contamination by touchless pre-rinsing before towel contact. Use clean microfiber faces and very light pressure; never scrub. Choose the Gloss version for glossy finishes and the Matte version for matte/non-gloss finishes. Do not polish matte paint or attempt to increase its gloss. No wash method can guarantee zero marring.
