We all know that cars are not exactly eco-friendly, but few people realise that the simple act of washing your car can use between 80 and 140 gallons of water. There are a few solutions to this problem however, the cheapest is to use a bucket of warm soapy water rather than a hose or pressure washer.
If you're feeling lazy then consider taking your car to an automatic car wash system, these often use a lot less water by reclaiming and recycling the water they use to wash your car. Such systems use approximately 45 gallons of water, or between roughly half and two thirds less than using a hose.
If you dont want to pay to have your car washed, and dont want the extra work of washing your car without using a hose, then how about using the Hozelock Car Shower system? This device allows you to wash your car using exactly the amount of water needed, without wasting a drop.
Alternatively, Miracle Dry Wash allows you to clean and polish your car without using so much as a drop of water. This revolutionary kit contains everything you need to give your car the perfect clean and polish, and is the especially eco-friendly option as it prevents detergents being washed into the drain and harming marine life.
The ecocamel spray contains lighter, softer, water droplets which give both powerful wetting and washing properties.
