What is the correct and the best way of giving my car a water wash?

Here's your best practices:





-- Do it in the shade rather than direct sun.





-- DON'T use household detergent (i.e., liquid dish soap). Use a car wash liquid that won't harm the clear coat.





-- Knock as much of the dirt of as possible with your spray down before using a sponge so as to aviod rubbing dirt particles against the finish.





-- Larger pore sponges are better than tiny cheap sponges and wash mitts are the best. You want something that will draw dirt far into it.





-- Wash from the top down and don't allow the soap to dry on the surface.





-- Keep seperate sponges for wheels and paint. The last thing you want is do a wheel and then end up rubbing brake dust particles against your paint job. You can use a cheaper sponge for the wheels.





-- Dry using a chamoise. Never allow to air dry especially if your city has hard water. You'll end up with spotting.What is the correct and the best way of giving my car a water wash?
Hose off all the loose dirt first, have a 5 gallon bucket (rinsed) filled with warm water and car wash soap. Use a terrycloth or other soft rag to scrub the surface. rinse off all the soap and let the water run off for a second to see the spots you might have missed. get the missed spots hose off and dry with a car shami.What is the correct and the best way of giving my car a water wash?
the bottom and rear of the car is always the dirtiest so start at the top and work your way down. Forget about the windows, use glass cleaner on those (inside and out). No car wash is complete without vacuuming the interior.





If your wheels are dirty with brake dust, then use a good wheel cleaner that is safe for all wheels ( clear coat and chrome gets damaged very easy )


After all is said and done a little tire (shine) dressing goes a long way.


And don't forget to drive by shops with large panes of glass so you can look over and see the reflection ofyour car shining in the sunlight.
while washing the body of the car:


-use a good car shampoo.


-don't spray hard on the car's body.


-first, rub the shampoo with a sponge. then wash it with water. dry it off with a dry, soft cloth.





rest of the car:


-spray hard on the under body and inner sides of the car. the dirt would be kept at bay through hard washing.


-take the extra dirt off the tire or body component by using a twig.


*have a happy wash!
take me out to the car wash take me out to the line/buy me some wheel brightner etc
Drive it into the nearest ocean.
Do it your self who else would be more caring and concerned unless you are lazy
