I don`t do too many mobile jobs these days mainly due to just being to busy at my location and being mobile can only really happen on the weekends. Regardless this BMW X3 is a repeat client who truly appreciates me coming on over. It`s always a pleasure working with this client. Just a fun guy to be around.

Nothing too fancy with this job. Just a nice wash/decon/one step and sealant.
The client took some shots of the process along the way.


Wheels/tires

Mckees foaming wheel cleaner gel, LATA, Hydro Blue, Mckees gloss tire gel

Wash/Decon

foamed with OTC soap, 2BM, 3D BDX, Nanoskin medium grade pad, N914 lube

Tools

BOSS G21, Adams swirl killer mini

Pads

BOSS microfiber cutting pad, 3in meg microfiber pad

Polish

M205

LSP

IGL Premier

Leather treatment

Mckees 70/30 leather shampoo, Mckees Leather guard UV50

You forgot to mention Name and Model of the Power Washer you are using. (Inquiring minds want to know)
Did you use the customer`s local water source or do you have your own tank and (distilled/treated) water?
Are you using a foamer designed for use with a power washer or just the soap dispenser reservoir that comes with the power washer?

By the way, for the uninformed, LATA is an acronym for L.A. Totally Awesome All-Purpose Cleaner (Yes, the yellow liquid "soap" that you buy at the Dollar General store). Every time is see that "LATA", I have to think about it. Justin says it`s inexpensive, (AKA, cheap) diluted to 2:1 with water (2 parts water, 1 part LATA) AND works well to clean wheel wells, AND safe when working with bare metal wheels, like cast or billet aluminum, (something you should NEVER do with OTC Simple Green, if you are trying use a "cost effective" OTC degreaser/cleaner). Just sayin`......

Nice work! Love BMW`s dark grey.

I`ve got the same McKee`s#7 shirt. While I love how soft it is, sweat seem to accumlate in the middle of my back right where the warning triangle is. Have you ever noticed this?

Unfortunately I don`t know what the name of the color is.

Thanks bud. The pressure washer is a Greenworks 2000 psi unit from Lowes. I use a amazon foam cannon meant for a pressure washer with the quick connect fitting.

I used the clients water source. Being that I`m not really a mobile guy I have no desire to setup a full functioning mobile rig. I just load up my truck and head out.

As for the LATA. Like stated I use it mixed 50/50 for tires, wells and jambs without issues. I wouldn`t really trust it on bare aluminum wheels. I definitely wouldn`t use it to clean interiors either except for maybe a spot here and there on a carpet.

Thanks bud. Yeah on a really hot day I notice it sometimes but I`m usually in my shop where its a little cooler. The detailed image (DETAILER) shirts are nice!

Love the AG knee and back pad. Use it on every job. Really helps out!
