I ordered a foaming attachment for my Karcher Pressure Washer. I really want to see if it will allow me to wash the cars faster. Up until now I only used the Pressure Washer for knocking off junk that builds up in the WW over the winter. Its a 1500 PSI Karcher w/Brass Pump Head.
What if anything is wrong with this approach:
Complete interior and Glass Detail
Rinse car Low Pressure
(Okay)
Rinse Wheel Wells Med Pressure
(Fine)
Foam Entire Car (Not letting it dry-Rinse after 5 minutes)
(I`m a little confused on this part if you are just using soap in the foamer i see no need to do a pre soak. I know a lot of people will do a pre-soak with a chemical cleaner or an APC to knock stuff down. No need to do with soap just let it sit there. IMO of course)
Clean Wheels (While soaking for 5 minutes-then finish after rinse)
(Honestly I like to do the wheels, WW, and Rims of the car before i even get the top part of the car wet at all. It helps to prevent water spots just a thought to do them first )
Rinse Car
(not now following what i said)
Re-Foam Car and follow with a wash mitt rinsing in clear water bucket w/grit guard every panel?
(I would still be using the two bucket method here. IDK why you would stray away from that the mitt needs to get clean somehow )
Is this a less Marring Wash than a 3 bucket Method?
Is there anything worng with my procedure?
How much soap : Water Mixture should I use in the cup or should it be straight soap? I like the thick soap I see in the pictures.
(Straight soap the gun will do all the dilutions for you and probably have a dilution setting for more foam or less foam )
Thanks in advance for your responses.
