Awesome. I really appreciate the pros putting down their wash methods, very helpful! Thanks

I printed this out and am going to tack it on my garage wall for reference.

Very cool thread. I'm trying to get my own process together for posting, but after reading yours, Justin's, and truedetailer's I keep changing things. Thanks!

Wow this is incredible! thanks for the write-up, this method sounds like it will definitely cut down on time while not having to sacrifice the quality of the service.

Re: Since others are posting "how I wash cars" threads, here is mine

That is a forum BEST I've read. We all like/love you Scott, but really that's taking it to another level. See now all you have to do is link the noobs to this thread and save some time.

Re: Since others are posting "how I wash cars" threads, here is mine

Awesome writeup Scott. Maybe the moderators can make it sticky for all us noobs!

Reading over the Click & Brags over time I have gathered a lot of this, but it's so much more convenient to have it all in one place. Very good description of PC technique--this takes time to learn if you only polish 2-3 cars per year.

I'm still amazed you can wash a whole car with only two gallons of water. I'm a convert to ONR but it takes me four gallons. Maybe when spring comes I can cut back.

Did I just miss it or does the post not talk about interior cleaning? Sorry it's been a long day teaching elementary school PE.

Re: Since others are posting "how I wash cars" threads, here is mine

The current trend was How you wash cars.

next month is interior cleaning.

the month after that is wheels

then engine bay,

then how to get dead hooker stink out of a trunk.
