Using the two bucket method, yea, it'll take more than 1-2 gallons for sure (I probably should've upped those numbers in my post, but oh well). But, I've done the multiple towel rinseless wash method before. It truly does use about 2 gallons at most. The method only involves 1 bucket and a lot of MF towels. Instead of a rinse bucket, once you've used a towel, you chuck it into the used pile and grab a new towel from the wash bucket. I've tried it before; had the 5 gallon bucket filled to about 4 gallons. By the end of the wash, there was more than half bucket left of detergent.
