It is great that these wipes work for some people. The caution in using any quickie time saving product still applies. When you detail any car, dust in the air settles on all surfaces in just a few minutes. Especially if you drive or if the car is just sitting. For this reason many good professional detailers only wax a car indoors in a garage. It is always important that the surface of your car is rinsed completely or the dust in the air that settles on the car will scratch the clear coat without question. This fine scratching will be even more pronounced if you wipe the surface after you drive the car for a few days or more. In time, you will see these scratches in the clear coat become more visible to the point that the car will appear to have been sanded (numerous fine swirl scratches). The wipes may be safe for clear coat related to the chemicals they use, but rubbing the dust into the clear coat will take its toll in a very short period of time. My personal preference is if I have to go to the trouble of dragging out the hose to rinse the car, I might as well grab the mitts and the bucket. If people find the wipes more convenient, more power to you. Quickie clean up products usually come with a price beyond the initial cost. Unfortunately, some things just take time and effort to be done right.
