I saw this waterless wash at Costco. Has anyone used it or something similar? I mostly want it to give me another reason to spend time with my truck!

Thank you for sharing your opinion. You'd be surprised how much research time Costco puts into their products before they're on the shelves. Extensive. I've been using Costco bar towels ever since my wife bought them mistaking them for the terry cloth shop towels. Since they're microfiber, I saw no reason not to use them on my Alto Blue. Very satisfied. Perhaps you're referring to another type of towel Costco sells?Idk if I would trust a Costco waterless product. I say that because you NEED to have proper lubrication and proper polymer technology. I would use a trusted product like P&S Epic Waterless Wash.
Also make sure you’re using towels that are plush and many of them. You don’t want to transport dirt from one part of the car to another and scratch the finish. Try to make sure it’s a 70%Polyester/30%Polyamide blended towel to resist scratching.
Dont buy cheap Costco towels
Of course. I think so, I believe they only make one car towel lol. The yellow towels that come in 36 packs?Thank you for sharing your opinion.

Never heard of them I’ll have to check them out.Don't know about the Costco version, but Kozak has been in business for some 96 years selling dry wash cloths. I've used them on and off for decades and they do work, but they're certainly not going to put auto detailers out of business. I'm not obsessive about vehicle appearance (think less than one car wash a year on average—oh the horror!). A decent alternative for someone in a hurry or in a garage on a rainy day.
I use the one on my Lexus all the time for garage dust. Has’nt bothered paint at all. Won’t really remove road dirt and stuck on stuff.What about a car duster (California Car Wash Brush)? Is that an option between washes?
This is the one to use. Won’t scratch when used properly.This is probably one of the best rated and used waterless washes. https://optimumcarcare.com/product/optimum-no-rinse-wash-shine1
I have personally used it for many years, on many many different vehicles. A gallon will last a LONG time as long as you follow the directions. The Rag company makes great microfibers, I use them for all my towel needs. The microfiber towels from costco are good for general purpose uses, not for use as a wax/sealant applicator or removal towel.
Also please please please do NOT use a California duster on your vehicle, that device will leave micro marring on the clear coat. If your vehicle is dusty but not dirty, use a quick detailer with good lubrication properties and a microfiber cloth, flipping the cloth after each panel of the vehicle is wiped clean, and then changing the cloth for a new one once you run out of clean cloth sides.
