Ha! I hear you about the wheels, but don't you at least spray them w/ cleaner and rinse off?
Please attach links to your cannon and blower, so I know what works and what to buy.. |
I used this same method over the weekend to give the car it's first wash and it was perfect.
I ordered everything from chemical guys - foam cannon, pink car wash liquid, a few microfiber towels.
- hose down the car with water with the cannon
- clip on the container to the cannon which includes soap/water
- hose the full car down to create the foam
- lightly wash the car with a microfiber mit
- hose down the car with water
Following the above method, you'll notice the ceramic coating effect. Water and even the soap literally beads off.
I then used a leaf blower and the car was dry within minutes. Never really needing the touch the car at all!
Lastly, I sprayed the car with a product called hydrosilex. It's a ceramic coat/maintenance product. Quick spray and wipe down and all done.
I do agree the wheels are a pain!! I forgot I didn't have a wheel cleaning brush so just used the back side of the microfiber mit. Overall, it got the job done and looks clean but will use a brush next time to get the insides. I also sprayed/wiped the wheels with hydrosilex.
Hope that helps!
