So today was the day for the ES to get washed and it was 34 degrees @9 a.m.! It was also THEE day to try out my brand new IK Foam Pro 12 foamer with mini air compressor "hack"...let's go
I get to the quarter wash and pull off to the side and start with TWHS Hyper Foam Tire & Wheel cleaner, this product continues to impress me on VERY dirty tires and wheels (it's also available in a gallon size). Once I was done with all 4 it was time for the pre-wash
The IK was filled with 4 oz of Bilt-Hamber Touchless and 1.5 gallons of distilled water. While I was cleaning the tires & wheels I attached the mini air compressor and set it to 60 psi, so it was done before I was done
I turn the mini air compressor back on and start to foam the ES and it did a great job and it maintained the psi needed to go all around the ES, included the tires and wheels again, the wheelwells and under the car a little bit too. I emptied the entire contents of the IK, yeah I got a little carried away BUT the car was a mess
Next up was to pull it in the wash bay and rinse everything away and pull it out. Now I will say with the ratio I had in the IK the Bilt-Hamber Touchless got everything clean except the very most bottom of the ES, remember this is a pre-wash with me guessing the ratio but that's ok because I planned on doing a WW at home afterwards anyways
Upon getting home there was NO DOUBT a contact wash was needed because the water dried on the paint and came out of everywhere, plus I felt like there was "maybe" a film because I didn't rinse it enough, here's where flooding the car can be better
I get home and grab 6 plush, edgeless "Jack" towels and my 1000 ML Kwazer filled w/ N914, along with a Gauntlet towel and knock out the WW. This was easy since 95% of the ES was clean, the dirt came from those very bottom panels and under them. I wiped down the jams and even my d/s WeatherTech Liner so it was perfect once again
Next were the tires and wheels to even them out and the N914 took care of that, even sprayed some up in the wheelwells too. Now that they were clean I added some TWHS graphene spray tire dressing to the Blizzaks and wiped down the wheel faces with Adam's CS3 graphene
I finished the car by wiping it down with a coat of Adam's CS3 graphene, everything came out great, that stuff just works
I decided on these 2 graphene infused products because there's been talk of doubt about graphene in another thread, so I thought I'd grab them, thank you guys

If so, what ratio
