    Garry:



    Love your videos!



    I have 28 16X16 microfibers soaking in my 5 gallon bucket! How long can I safely leave these microfibers in the wash media without worrying about the media "going bad"? Obviously, I`m only taking care of 2 or 3 "babies" at my house, but I want to be conservative in changing out wash soak media.

    Hey, Mike!



    I am glad you like my wash method. I don`t think it will hurt anything to allow the microfibers to continually soak over time, but just mixing and soaking before you use will work just as well.



    IMO, if you presoak and cover the bucket for storage you are lessening the chance of your microfibers collecting foreign contaminants in the in between time, wherever you are storing them.

    I have them soaking with a cover over the paint bucket. Used 13 today doing my car and used a waffle weave for the final "buff".......the surface was so slick it hardly touched the surface! Thanks for the great method!

    I ordered a kit just because I like the products and the border-line OCD approach Garry takes to washing matches that of my own processes for things. As long as I am able to wash my car(s) frequently enough to use this method, I`ll definitely be using it.

    Just got around to watching the video. This is a genius method. I cannot wait to try it.

    I`ve been using this method for about a year now, except the only thing do differently is spray JW AJT after I wash the panel, before drying, for some protection(2 months.) Its amazing how fast you can wash and wax a car using this method and a pump sprayer.

    Me too! My cars seldom get dirty because they are garage queens. I`m retired and if it rains I don`t go out. In Texas it does not rain much anyway and there is no snow which means no sand or salt either. In fact, I bought a Mercedes ML350 in May and it has yet to feel a drop of rain! So, they get a little road grime and bug juice but that`s about it which makes it perfect to wash them using this method. I throw the used towels in a bucket of hot water and let them soak before washing them. Piece of cake!

    Oh man, if my car wasn`t clean, I`d be trying this tonight. Time to run to Home Depot and pick up a lid for my bucket (and to Sam`s for some more MFs!)



    Thanks for the tip Gary!

    Long time member, infrequent poster - will definitely be using this method from now on, as I have slowly been transitioning the care of my vehicles from traditional washes to the rinseless methods, primarily using ONR. Garry, I see you`re from Va. Beach - I was born in Portsmouth and grew up & currently reside in Chesapeake, small world man. Thanks again for the vid.

    I had a chance to try out the Gary Dean wash method over the weekend and really liked the approach. It seemed to be faster than my previous ONR 2 bucket wash, but I can`t say for sure as I was interrupted. :smile: (My youngest daughter awoke from her nap while trying out the GD-Wash Process.)



    Thanks for taking the time and sharing.
