I saw an ad in the papers for this:

But have always avoided these products in the past on the basis that the paintwork might become scratched. Anyone use a waterless washing system?

I have used this for about 2 years and my advice would be the following: use it when your car is basically clean but with a light dust on it. If it's dirty, or filthy, don't even think about it - it will scratch, almost by definition, there's nowhere for the grit to go, and microfibres don't help on that score, they merely contribute to a smear-free shine.

They are quite good, but be very careful. In the end I had to get my car machine polished to get rid of the swirls
Kind of what I wanted to know and expected to hear. I won't be buying it!

Thanks.......
