As a result, I spent all day rinsing my mitt a killion times. It was really discouraging. So my question is this: In order to effectively take care of one's own personal vehicle, after a nasty trip, is a pressure washer pretty much mandatory before a regular, healthy, two bucket wash routine?
Any opinions and help on this matter is greatly appreciated!

I say a foam gun would be much safer than a pressure washing on a very dirty car.
