Hi Dave;
 
I have not specifically used that brand, but I do have experience of  
waterless car washes in general.
 
While I worked for the UK headquarters of Porsche and, later, Volvo, we  
experimented with several brands. None of them dissolved the dirt sufficiently 
 to prevent micro scratching. Since, I have read reports in classic car 
magazines  that say the same thing.
 
In addition to our TR3A, we also own a 1965 Volvo PV544 Sport, which is in  
near-perfect condition except for micro-scratching all over it that I 
failed to  notice when I was buying the car. The previous owner is a waterless 
car wash  dealer and swears by it. He often used the waterless car wash 
products on the  Volvo but I am completely convinced this has caused the micro 
scratching.
