Summary: Green Earth
Comment: Green Earth Technologies 01212 Car Wash 16 oz. Bought the kit first and then the car wash. I love it and as for enough suds it does very well. Use enough and have some water pressure in the bucket and it is better, safer and more useful then anything else. I am not a tree hugger but love to save our environment !

Summary: Best product for me
Comment: I love this product because it is not toxic and it is not a soap. I don't even need to shower after a car wash. I can hose the car with water, use this car wash and wipe clean with a microfiber. That's it. Because this car wash help the water beads off, 1-2 microfiber is all it needs to dry the car to give the car a spot free wash. Other car wash cannot do it.

Summary: It's a dud.
Comment: 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.

Summary: Warning: Guinea Pigs for New Technology
Comment: 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.

Summary: Ok Stuff
Comment: 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.
