Default 2 bucket method: proper washing video

link




i thought this video was pretty informative. theres always questions popping up on this board about proper washing techniques, so i found this and decided to post it

a couple of things to keep in mind that he doesn't share:

you can always foam the car before you begin washing. if you don't want to drop 30+ dollars on a foam gun, you can pick up a garden feeder from your local lumber yard for like 6 bucks and fill that with your favorite car wash soap

another thing to keep in mind is when you're drying you can give your panel a shot of quick detailer for added lubricity between your finish and the towel

Dang that actually would work with the "garden feeder" I just saw a foam gun the other day and it looked pretty neat.

Gonna also have to try that quick detailer too, I always have a crappy time drying my cars and leave streakish marks.
