I know youve stated on numerous occasions you dont like using running water especially on older cars, how would you approach the initial wash process on that car?
IN the past, my normal approach woujld be to use a waterless wash, spray on HEAVY SATURATION and use LOTS of towels to wipe the car clean. I teach this in my classes too.
At the time I posted the above picture, I don't think I had actually created the write-up thus no link. Since then, I detailed the car and created the write-up, (takes hours to create a good write-up). I just edited the post above and included the link to the write-up.

And if you scroll down the thread you'll see this picture. It shows I used my normal go-to Prep Wash, SONAX Glass Cleaner
Since then, my good buddy Jim Lafeber aka Dr. Beasley, who has attended 3 of my recent 3-day detailing classes as a VIP Guest, saw me using Glass Cleaner as a "prep wash" and asked why?
I explained, and he has just launched a brand new product based upon his experience with me called,
Prep Wash
He brought a dozen bottles to my last class for the students to test out and also gave me a bottle to test out. I share it and my thoughts here,
BLACKFIRE One Step Topped with PBL Surface Coating - 2019 Chevy Impala
The entire car was as dirty as you see this mirror.
Spray, spray, spray... then wipe, wipe wipe.
Clean. That's all. Just clean. Exactly what I want. :xyxthumbs:
He's tweaked and finalized the formula and it's now for sale at his website. My guess is, because we carry his line, it will be available here in the future.
Great question, thank you for asking.
