You can also use a pressure bay and your own high-quality mitt (No sponge or cloth for washing, they trap grit that will scratch). Use a large bucket to thoroughly rinse the mitt when you resoap it, do the top and sides first, then the back and the rockers last. Use a soft brush on your wheels, not the same mitt you’ll use to wash the car next time. Make sure the car wash allows “bucket washing,” but most won’t mind if there are other open bays or if you use the wand to fill your pail.
Until the car wash washes a mud covered 4wd, then you’re stuffed. The best way is a sponge or soft cloth that is never used for anything else, and to use a specific drying cloth as well…
Nice video. I really enjoyed watching it. I am running a marketing campaign to start a large auto detailing chain corporation. Let me know what you think by checking out my channel. Thanks
yehh your rite. it is the dirt what scratches the car… and the soap brush at a car wash collects the dirt off 4x4s and other cars they may not of been washed for months. the dirt on the brush scratches your car. better off to avoid any car wash all together if you can. do it at home or get a profesional to do it.
You can’t get a car clean without some sort of friction. The brush alone won’t scratch a car, whether it’s a cheap nylon bristle or a high-end animal bristle brush. It’s the dirt on the car and brush that does the scratching. Using the high-pressure to blast any scratchy debris off the paint and cleaning the brush first will prevent scratches from the brush.
This is a nice video im shame to say this but some Valeters they still use the chamois and Blades for the easy way wich scratch the clear coat.
And after they say there Detailers.
Cars neet to be wash using purified water, degreaser and Grit Guard Buckets for safe and professional wash, and special sponges and driet with cotton towells.

I got one of those blades,works really well for getting the excess water off then i use a chamois drying towel as long as you rinse the blade off no grit is going to get caught since you just washed and rinsed the car off i dont have any swirls at all so im just saying as long as you keep it clean they are fine to use.
Not true. A waffle weave drying towel will pull the dirt into it. It will be released when its washed in warm water. Until then it will be trapped and will not scratch your paint
Basically you want to remove as much dirt and road debris as possible for your first step. Then when using your sheeps fur mit, wipe the car down with as few strokes as possible making sure to keep the mit as free as possible from hard debris by submerging it in a bucket of water. Then using a sheet of chamois, make sure you dry it without wiping too much. Friction is the enemy here. Especially when combined with dirt.
if you have not washed you car properly , and the product your using to dry it with is dirty, its going to get scratched. be it a chamois/towel sponge or squeegee.
Coming from a chemical engineering background, i know first hand, that a non porous SILICONE squeegee will carry less dirt a cloth/chamois/towel of any kind..in the same amount of space. the chamois/towel which gets dirt trapped in the fibres and then runs them all over your paintwork is doing no good.
Ya, I can’t really tell wither its an actual high pressure washer or just a wand. The small bend near the end is something wands have, also the water did not look like it was hitting the car at an extremely high velocity. But it’s hard to tell…
isnt he mr inapropraite from balls of steel? if so i wouldnt feel comfortable around him, he stuck a frying pan handle up his bum

one simple thing to avoid with car washing is the soap brush. nevvvvvver use the soap brush.
I didn’t understand one word of what you just said.

Best way is to go to a self serve, hish presure soap almost point blank on the paint…and rinse….use the bursh for the wheels but rinse it first…
the paint on those cars is really soft so that kind of damage is no surprise.
good video paul.

i think you missed the point of the segment.
this was to show the best possible way to get your car washed with you have to do it.
everyone knows doing it yourself is the best, and most car enthusiast know this. that was a given.
lol hand job

What a stupid pointless segment. They offer no real advice and tips on how to wash a car without scratching the fxxx out of the paint.
Rubbing brake dust into your paint, using two buckets, spraying out the brush, wash gloves and all the rest completely ingored.
if you have not washed you car properly , and the product your using to dry it with is dirty, its going to get scratched. be it a chamois/towel sponge or squeegee.
