Great work! Do you like G21 or Mk2 more?

No major preference... we tend to use the LHR21 MKII more often just because we have all other Rupes machines, but the G21 is a great tool.

Good old flat pads... 5.5" and 3"

Those were the pads I started off with, they're so great. Very comfortable to use and they just flat out work. Those pads have never let me down.

Nice job.

How do you like using Karcher PW with honeydew?
 
Nice save! With all that work, why did the owner not opt for a coating?

I can already see that shes gonna be all glimmering in the sun when it hits. Any idea what those white curtains in the background are for? Also would you share the setup your using to produce those suds with an electric washer?

Yup, we keep buying flat pads. They are cheap and work well... though I really like the new BOSS pads as well.

I have had the Karcher X Series PW for about 4 years now and am not a fan of it... overpriced and cheaply made.

Coatings are not the best choice for everyone... this car is only driven in the summer and never sees rain. The owner brings it in to us every year before he takes it out again for a new layer of sealant. A coating would be a fine choice, but certainly not needed for a car that is so pampered and rarely driven.

Lol yes I have an idea why there are "white curtains" because I put them there... it is my shop after all :) The barriers in the background keep us from getting the other cars in the shop wet while we are washing.

There is no secret on how to make foam with a pressure washer... use a foam canon and some shampoo. Easy as that.
