 It's a dud. August 23, 2008
P. Chauhan (Pittsburgh, PA)
There is a feel good message about this car wash, being green and all. However, it didn't do the job very well. As others have mentioned, it doesn't have suds, which by itself is not necessarily a problem. However, it hardly cleans dirt from the car. It is useful only if for lightly dirty areas, but anything gunkier than that (tree sap/dead bugs/oil stains, etc.), and it is useless. I wish the product delivered on its main promise. I guess I'll have to go back to not so green products, that do the job.
 Warning: Guinea Pigs for New Technology August 17, 2008

This seemingly innocent looking product uses nanotechnology. It is not a soap, it uses nano-sized particles to "clean", which is a brand new class of manufactured material. As of this date, Aug 2008, these materials have NOT been tested for safety in humans and only very early studies on animals. Welcome to the new world of small government "getting out or our way" and big corporations running the show.
This product is shrouding itself under the banner of "green", environmentally friendy, and non-toxic. The problem is no one can dispute that because there have been no scientific studies yet. The EPA's hands are tied because they must prove the possiblity of harm (e.g. through a peer reviewed scientific study) before being able regulate it or even to get money to study it. A catch 22. Studies are under way by other groups but these products are already in the marketplace (this is just one of the new nano-tech products).
If anyone has been wondering why your washcloth doesn't get dirty with this product it is because it is working on such a small scale that the dirt particles are literally being broken apart on a molecular level. Preliminary studies show nano-particles can persist in the environment.
So the question is, what does this product do to you or your children? What happens if it leaches its way down to an aquifer? What does it do to the cells in your body? Will these micro particles absorb directly thru your skin? They are certainly small enough to. What happens if you breathe them in? If anybody knows, they're not saying.
 Ok Stuff August 17, 2008

Seems to work well, but I can't tell that it is much better than any other car wash. I guess that if it works and is more earth friendly, that is good enough for me. I will buy it again.
 Superb product July 11, 2008

Not only did this clean my car it also cleaned the rag and the bucket I used!!! I used it on my jetski and was able to remove some mold from my seats that was sun baked-on for 10 years old that I could not remove in the past using various products. I also used it to remove oil that has built up over the years on the inside my jetski. Used non-diluted Car Wash on my porcelain sink with amazing results; I haven't seen my sink this clean since I purchased my house. Not recommended for car windows...use the Green Earth Technologies glass cleaner instead.
Who needs suds? June 5, 2008

Green Earth Technologies 01212 Car Wash 16 oz
So I heard that it's questionable cause it doesn't suds... so I bought it. : P It apparently actually DOES NOT suds very well, but that clearly means nothing. There's assuredly no SLS (Sodium laurel sulfate) in it, because that stuff's not so good... and is otherwise made of animal and plant parts... Don't remember the last time my veggie wash caused my tomatoes to suds either. Point is: It's good, and don't be taken aback by the lack of suds. I'd hate to see an amazing company with an amazing mission get shafted because consumers "like to see suds". It works, and well. Try it!
