As some know, I'm kind of fussy when it comes to keeping my cars clean. So I thought I'd ask the question of the forum,
"what's your cash wash / cleaning routine?"For me, and I need a couple of hours for this.
1) Two bucket wash with Meg's car wash (the one with carnauba wax) using a lambs wool mit. Lots of suds. Late arvo as I have no carport with shade.
2) A good rinse down all over (no high pressure stuff) inc under the guards.
3) Start washing from top down, rinsing mit between each panel.
4) Lastly, with a different mit, wash the wheels and inside the guards as far as I can reach (long handled brush for the hard to reach spots)
5) Given car is waxed and washed with a carnauba wax wash, I can sheet most of the water off, then pad dry with waffle towel.
6) Soft terry towel to dry door jams, rubbers, (inc boot). Pop bonnet and dry any water present plus give the engine bay a wipe down.
7) Dry rims and tyres, diffuser and zorst tips.
8) Once dry, I use Finsh Kare FK-425 detailer to remove any water marks and also put a nice finish on the wax. Same product to get rid of water marks on glass.
9) Crack a beer and wait for the dust to start appearing......
