This document discusses the benefits of Pearl's waterless vehicle cleaning solutions as a more sustainable alternative to traditional washing methods. It notes the increasing global demand for eco-friendly solutions due to issues like water shortages and environmental regulations. Pearl has developed waterless products that save water and energy while still providing an effective clean. The document seeks to address common misconceptions about waterless washing, explaining how it does not scratch paint, is better for the environment, and can clean as well or better than traditional soaps while being more cost-effective.

2. Due to the very evident
global catastrophic
climate change, water
shortages and tightening
environmental legislation
there is an ever
increasing demand for
sustainable solutions that
will help prevent further
impact on the
environment.

3. Having identified that there has
been a significant shift in global
needs with the increasing
demands and resounding
emphasis for the development of
smarter and more sustainable
Eco-friendly solutions, through
our combination of scientific
expertise, ISO 9001 & 14001
accredited procedures and
innovation in chemical
technology, Pearl® have
proactively responded to ensure
that we are at the very forefront
in the manufacture of the very
latest innovative and cutting-
edge environmentally-friendly
waterless vehicle cleaning
solutions.

4. We pride ourselves on supplying
ground breaking technical expertise on
environmental carbon reducing
products that dramatically prevent
precious water and energy
consumption throughout the world. We
take an holistic view on low carbon
practices throughout the economy
from the way water and energy is
generated, transported, consumed and
subsequently culminating in the
formulisation of our professional
waterless wash system that not only
saves water, energy, product use and
therefore importantly saving your costs
and carbon footprint, it also saves on
detailing time and helps with the speed
of throughput in commercial cleaning
operations.

5. Pearl® fully embraces that “It should not and unequivocally
must not cost the Earth to wash a vehicle” and so providing
this information it will hopefully provide a clearer picture of how
collectively we can all save precious water consumption,
prevent pollution and increase energy reserves whilst cleaning
and polishing cars.

6. You may be aware that service centres, fleet services, commercial car
wash operations through their business demands all unfortunately have
the tendency to use vast amount of water in their wash bays when
cleaning clients vehicles wasting many 1000′s of gallons each day.
Many traditionalists and enthusiasts are hesitant about switching to
waterless products as they believe how can they be as good as the old
traditional wet wash system, so here we would like to cover the top five
misconceptions about waterless washing and hopefully we can
convince you to give them a try.

7. 1. Do waterless car wash
products scratch the
paint surface of the car?
Definitely not and like with any
vehicle washing it is just a
matter of technique in
using the correct
application method
together with a quality
microfibre cloth, the
product itself will not
scratch the car. A very
simple and efficient
process using two
microfibre cloths you
simply spray onto one
cloth and onto a panel of
vehicle, gently rub and buff
using second cloth to a
brilliant mirror gloss shine,
repeating until the whole

8. The only time water is ever required is if the vehicle has mud or sand
stuck to the skirts which can be simply rinsed or steamed off from that
localized area before applying the waterless product. Consider the
implications of conventional washing with a dirty sponge, microfibre
cloth and chamois leather revisiting the same area of the car many
times and definitely increasing likelihood of scratching the paint
surface.

9. 2. Are waterless car wash products bad for the environment?
Definitely not as all Pearl waterless products contain no hazardous
ingredients like those contained in most conventional style products such
as petroleum, acids, solvents etc. which all have environmental impact
and in addition there is no run-off from waterless washing as there is no
rinsing involved unlike the thousands of gallons of contaminated waste
water that potentially goes directly into water ways when using traditional
bucket-and-hose method washes. Also all Pearl waterless products
contain no Volatile Organic Compounds.

10. 3. Do waterless car wash
products clean as well as
using conventional shampoo
and water?
They work even better as the
special ingredients contained in
Pearl waterless scratch-free
formulations liquefy and break
down dirt on the surface of the
car, which is then easily wiped
away and then buffed with a
microfibre cloth to create
instant shine. Not only that but
waterless car wash products
add an extra layer of protection
against dust, grime and dirt
from the road, keeping the car
cleaner and shinier for longer.

11. 4. Why is it considered waterless if you have to clean the
microfiber cloths in water?
‘Waterless’ is commonly mistaken to mean that water is completely
eliminated from the cleaning process altogether, which is an unrealistic
expectation. Waterless products greatly reduce the amount of water
used per wash, microfibre cloths can be simply machine washed as you
would with dirty overalls, the dirt is collected in the machines filter
system and the waste water is controlled through the household
drainage system and so directed to the relevant water treatment plant.

12. 5. Are waterless products more expensive than soap and water?
Waterless car wash products can be used in more than just surface
cleaning as not only do they clean but highly polish and wax protect all
in one with the simple process of spray, wipe and buff panel at a time
until all the vehicle is complete; saving you money on car care products
as well. Whereas conventional washing involves using many different
products and revisiting the same area of the car many times to rinse,
shampoo, rinse again, chamois leather and then wait for paintwork to
dry before you can even consider applying any wax.

13. In addition it is very important to understand that by law commercial
operations have to ensure sure that none of their waste water is going
where it shouldn’t. So hazardous products such as thinners, coolants,
effluent, vehicle-cleaning detergents and oily waste water, etc. must be
treated before entering the sewer system.
