Using the rag co towel. Is VW paint soft?

is it dumb to clay towel a car if I am not planning on polishing it afterwards? I wanted to get the paint decontaminated and clean so I can try to go around and do some rock chip touchup and a small scratch or two in spots before having the car professionally detailed and polished. But i have...

Maybe I’ll just do a pre spray of ferrex and an apc and then rinse off and start the process.

Hey, I want to try out this oneish step approach to washing my car where I use ONR, then a clay towel with optimum spray wax as the lube and then opti seal as the drying aid however am wondering if there is a way to modify this for dirtier cars where you can combie the use of some bug/tar spray...

So i’m thinkin marolex sprayer with ONR and distilled agua pre treat with some dwell time, if I can find a nice cool overcast day I can just pre treat entire vehicle otherwise panel by panel top down. If the car is super cruddy hose it off first. Then i will have a gallon with ONRWW diluted with...

If you are doing one panel at a time, how do you do the roof so you aren’t getting solution and water all over all the panels? Or does it not matter since you are going top down?

Hey, I wanted to do a two bucket suds wash every couple weeks and maybe throw in a rinseless wash the alternating weeks using ONRWW. Feeling a bit like there ends up being too much crap on the car after a week goes by, do I need to knock that off with a hose first? Was hoping to use my marolex...

Hey, is it pointless to pre-soak with ONR if I am doing a regular soap and water wash?

Nice. Washing car in the winter seems like a fun adventure. Anyone use that sun joe bucket pressure washer or is the worx hydroshot 40v the best option?

How cold out can I use a Spray Wax? If I use ONR Wash and Wax (The green stuff) is that safe below freezing or will it streak up?

I live in Upstate NY. We got winters. No garage. Shared driveway, but it’s gravel/mud so it’s a pain to wash in because there is mud everywhere. I have found that if I bring some Optimum Opticlean, a detail brush and a few microfibers I can do a decent job on the interior when I am in a parking...

Hey, what is a good budget and compact/portable mobile detailing setup that would work for a guy looking to work on his sleigh in a parking lot while wife grocery shops. How many gallons of water is sufficient to haul around for one detail?
