Just a couple of quick details, just using a new technique. I bought a 2 gallon sprayer from Home Depot. It's the big cylinder style with the hose and wand. You pump it to get pressure. Anyways, filled that with 1 oz QEW and the rest water. I find that its an EXCELLENT pre-soak for a QEW wash. It helps wash away/emulsify loose dirt, especially important this time of year.

So I presoaked, then did the 2 bucket QEW method over the entire vehicle. I washed down the rims, tires, wells, and then sprayed Gliptone Carnauba Body Gloss (3 spritz per panel) and dried with a WW MF. Such a great combo, IMO. The Body Gloss helps make the surface slick for drying and helps reduce the chance of wash induced marring. It also adds a nice carnauba glow and adds slickness too. I did NOT notice any streaking on windows. All in all, a great little regimen for a quick wash. BnB on the tires/wells (don't mind the S4 wells).

Any questions, I'd be glad to answer.
 
Thanks.

The Audi is every week from now on. I am polishing it out next week.

The Bimmer will probably be on and off. I'm doing his 19" rims for him off the car next week. :)
 
I have a sprayer mentioned in original post. I spray them down, then spray an APC solution in and let soak. I then take a older, wet chenille pad and just scrub, then rinse with the sprayer, let dry and dress with PB BnB.
 
:angry


Nice......doesnt this weather suck...it is supposed to snow again ...another 6"


Jamaica next week thursday... :drunk
 
Both cars look great! I have actually been thinking of getting one of those sprayers for QEW washes and when its cold out. I thought about one of those kind that you can give it a shot of air with a compressor, but its probably just as easy to pump it w/ the handle.
 
Very nice !!! Did you ever drive the S4 ? I drove an 02 S8 about 2 weeks ago, and really enjoyed the handling abilities of the larger car.

Great job on both !!!

BTW... Just received my first order of QEW after UPS destroyed the previous 2 sent out from camping world. Cannot wait to try out using your technique.
 
Exquisite: It works great. It rinses/emulsifies the dirt which really takes a lot of fear away while using QEW. I noticed ZERO marring from the either vehicle and both were relatively dirty.

Glen: I have a sample I'm itching to try. Have to get rid of the old stuff first :)

Dean: The thing is pretty amazing. I like the Recaro leathers all the way around. The owner drives it like it should be driven and man does it go :). Definately give this way a shot. I won't use QEW anymore without my little bug sprayer :lol

Here's a pic of it:

Groebuck: HAHA :rolling Shazamm! I guess I walked into that one.

GSRstilez: How is the price if you don't mind me asking? I am considering a foam gun maybe that might be an option.
 
It was like $25 total with tax. It comes with a foaming attachment. It feels like a very sturdy piece. My friend down south uses it for foaming his wheel/tire/well cleaner and says its very resistant to chemicals.
