A friend had me do the BF 2 step process (TPnS + CS) on his new Ciivc about a year ago, ever since then all he has done is wash it and throw some Wolfgang Spritz on it (which I gave him) . He washes about every 3 weeks at a wand type stall wash. (I did get him to not use the wand soap)....LOL..... After a year, his Crystal seal was still holding up, but we decided to meet at our local sports bar today for the Heat game and I told him we could do a quick rejuvenation if he would buy lunch.. He was like, "Sure, but they don't have a hose"..... LOL

We got to the bar about 15 min early. I loaded up 2 gals of Rinseless wash and 6 MF plush towels in my traveling bucket. The waterproof top is a great asset.

6 towels in the bucket, the whole wash process was 4 minutes with both of us grabbing and using the towels. Don't ring them out, lay the plush side on sopping:

Discarding towels as we went - no towel used on more than 2 panels, that is the secret to no scratch:

a quick dry with waffle weave towels

a quick wipe of each panel with Crystal seal - no buffing, just walk away

and the gloss starts after 3 -5 minutes

Done - this whole process in a parking lot with no hose took 14 minutes with nobody rushing...and he's good to go for another 6-9 months with reg washes..

Why did you throw your dirty microfibers on the ground? :eek:
 
Looks nice. I thought the same thing about the MF towels, but if you look close they are on the lid from the bucket :props:

correct - see the lid in pic #2....My MF's are my life, they get perfect care....
 
WOW! Awesome job, looks like there are NO excuses for being mobile without water now huh? The car looks great man! Hope you enjoyed your "lunch" too
 
That was a pretty quick detail.

Next time use something a bit bigger than a lid to hold that many towels. Quality towels touching the floor is a bit sacrilegious around here.
 
a 5 gallon gamma seal lid?

I could have put another 3 towels on there...LOL
 
Nice results for only '14 minutes' and no quarters.
Enough time to watch the game and a free lunch, not too bad!
