Why don't I do rinseless washes anymore? After years of being a full-time mobile detailer in Orange County—working in strict coastal cities with heavy water-runoff regulations and during the peak of California's "drought"—I relied on rinseless washes to keep my business alive. I was a full-on mobile rinseless detailer for years. Corporate accounts, weekly clients, everything.
But over time, I realized rinseless washing has major limitations that no one really talks about.
In this video/podcast, I'm breaking down my full experience:
How strict water regulations pushed me into rinseless in the first place
Why I switched from waterless → to rinseless → to traditional washing
The real problems I ran into after YEARS of rinseless washing
Why customers didn't trust it (and how I lost accounts because of it)
Why wheels, tires, door jambs, and wheel wells are a nightmare with rinseless
Why rinseless is way more labor-intensive than people think
Why it only works well on lightly soiled "garage queen" cars
Why I eventually moved away from it completely
And most importantly… How all of this led me to develop the Dry Foam Wash Method—a system that uses significantly less water but way more chemistry to safely break down dirt with less labor, less waste, and fewer limitations.
Rinseless washing still has its place. Traditional washing still has its place. Foam cannons still have limitations. There is no perfect system…
…but there are smarter ways to wash a car depending on your goals.
This episode is all about the reality of rinseless washes—not the marketing hype—and how years of hands-on mobile detailing shaped the way I wash cars today.
