The cool fall weather is setting in and I’m trying to take advantage of the last driveway car washes of the year. It occurred to me that I haven’t done a car wash video sine buying my 340i two years ago. In this video, I show you my process and the supplies that I use.
While I’m not a professional, and don’t even consider myself a detailing guy, I do enjoy my weekly car wash and try my best to improve my process each time.

From a professional, great job man!!! Love the rotating caps 🤙 been watching your content since I got my E90 :)

Hey I’m currently living in Jamaica and I’m thinking of buying a 5 series however I’m a little bit skeptic, what I would like to know is how to get any parts that would wear without going to the dealer, brands for the sensors, plugs, great oil for oil change and all,

[@b286guy]

“I’m really not that into detailing.” Now off we go with a pressure washer, foam canon, two wash buckets, grit protectors, various soaps, mitts, sprays, brushes, towels, blowers, etc. 😂

Great tutorial and production with a nice ASMR touch. Starting at the top and going in straight lines tells me you know how to properly wash a car.

This video came out so great babe! I’m so proud of the time you take to make your videos and the steps you go through to make sure every video is high quality. You don’t rush for the sake of getting out a video and the care shows in everything you put out. So proud of you! ♥️

[@edgy1rocks]

Great video. I use a DeWalt leaf blower to blow the water off my car. Works great and some days if the snowfall is not too deep, it’s great to clear my deck and driveway. A clean microfiber towel makes the paint pop. Battery powered is the way to go!

Using a Stubby power wand works wonders with a foam cannon. Also, for those with black paint, use chemical guys blacklight foam soap, and blacklight wax. Keeps my M5 brilliant.

[@zygimantas5461]

I regret not buying one sooner! Between my cars and house, I use it several times a week in the summer

[@blue_1247]

never knew you could hold the wipers up like that... neat, thanks!

[@RothBeyondTheGrave]

I always smile when I see you uploading vids like this because it means you don't need to do a bottom end rebuild, replace mosfets in your dme or any other similar nonsense. Guess the B58 is really what they say it is? Right on!
P.S. that fakie varial flip was bolts!

[@justinbuice]

It’s been reliable, fuel efficient and plenty of power for me as-is 😁

[@ankitpatel471]

Hey, one thing I'd recommend is to avoid using the green tip on the pressure washer. Although your pressure washer has a low psi, it's generally safer to use the white tip (or one with a larger spray degree) when washing to ensure you don't strip anything if you accidentally get too close.

[@kassifhussain6781]

[@michaelhall9138]

Pro tip, I use a separate wash mitt for the side skirts and bumpers as, as you say, they are the dirtiest.

[@tracyfajette2122]

Hi Justin…..I do almost the same process with one exception. Rather than rinsing the microfiber mitt in a clean water bucket (which might not clean all the grit out), I fill one bucket with soapy water and put 5 mitts in it to pull out for each section as I go. Then I wash each of the mitts in the washer. Like you, I use a dedicated bucket for the wheels and use a clean microfiber for each rim. Really good tutorial by the way.

[@rizzomay]

Right you know what you are doing

[@JHall]

Learned somethin new on this… think I’m gonna try & section off my car with the foam. I normally foam the whole thing… then wash. But I think I may start incorporating your method of foam, rinse, then foam and wash by section.

[@Abiiiid3819]

Would you do an interior version? Loved the format of this video and the step by step voiceover

I’m looking into it 😎

🔥 bro!

[@jimjose2545]

[@parthdinubhai]

I will say using a leaf blower only really helps if your are ceramic coated, without a coating I have noticed the water grabs the paint and doesn't move very far

I liked the video a lot! Your camera work is really nice!
For the keyless go thing, I just put my keys inside the car, then it won’t lock and open all the time! :)

The pressure washer is good. I've had mine for 4 years. I would recommend replacing the hose with a kink free ones like Uberflex or Flexilla and get quick connects. It was a game changer for me.

What about washing the engine bay? How would you do that?

Hi
Is using ph neutral soap for prewash snow foam is useless?
Or it fits the purpose of pre-wash?
Does it remove more dirt than just using pressure wash only?

[@fernandorenteria]

Hi Justin, I'm from Mexico and I've been following you for quite a while. I love your videos. I just wonder how do you clean the interior door frames and when in the whole process of washing? Nice rotating caps btw, I might get ones.

looking to get a new car , most likely getting an audi a6 but i’ve been looking at 535i and 550i but as most ppl say ab bmw’s i hear their not reliable and they had 1.5/5 rating on reliability can anyone fill me in on how the 535/550 are , or if there’s any other options that are still good on performance

[@justinbuice]

The 535 is a better choice for reliability

Mans cleaning an already clean car. Could eat dinner from those rims

[@shazidulislam1036]

Just curious I have some soap stains after using the foam method, is this potentially because Im adding too much air and not enough water in it ?

Could be drying to quickly before you rinse

I love to see that it isnt just me that has the car lock, unlock, lock and unlock while washing it lolll
