The scratches that his clients are paying through the ass to remove are being induced upon the finish during "Step 3" of Paul's routine. You see.....Paul is not using a Grit Guard in that single wash bucket of his and to further add insult to injury; he chooses to use a sponge instead of a Chenille wash mitt.
maverick buckley Not more than a sponge does. No way. And whatever little dirt is on the mitt is taken off with a proper grit guard. Microfiber Chenille is good but Sheepskin is be$t.
+The1WhoKnowsTheTruth You're so right, I do own a small Car Wash in Mexico City and I have to use 2 buckets to properly wash the cars: one to soap and other to rinse the sponge... otherwise I'd transfer dirt to the paint.
+TitaniumFox95 ( tips, tricks and builds) These extremely rare and expensive cars were basically made to be looked at. Most of these will only gain value over the years if in good condition. On the other hand there`s plenty enough of nice sunny days to practically enjoy the ride and people that can buy these usually have much more great cars suitable for daily driving like bentley, maserati or even rolls royce.
I know what you mean, clean the spunge in one bucket and use the other one to wash the car with, but if you listened carefully and look carefully you can see it are 'two buckets in one'' the bucket exists out of two parts, the filth and dirt sinks to the bottom wich is separated with a net so the dirt falls trough and sinks and stays at the bottom. Just saying.
***** Screw two buckets. If I was advertising washes for cars like this, I'd have a dozen buckets and use each sponge once on both sides. In other words, I'd never reuse a sponge after dipping it back into a bucket. Shit...i'd use a brand new sponges each time.
The sunlight and sponges part I get. However, I don't understand what is bad about cleaning the wheels after the paint? Isn't it better to do it after rather than before?
If you clean and dry the paint, you don't want to put dirt/water on it again when you clean the wheels/wheel arches, plus the products used for this cleaning are more aggresive than the ones for the paint
There's a lot of negative comments in this comment section regarding his cleaning method. This video is 11 years old and the methods he is using were bang up to date at the time. If you have a look on his website you'll see that he has evolved with the times and changed his methods considerably. Bearing in mind this was back when people got a raging stonker over wonder wheels.
List of things he did wrong: 1) Used an aggressive TFR instead of a much safer strip snow foam 2) He did not use rinse bucket or at least spray off the sponge before getting more shampoo 3) He used a sponge which just pushes dirt around 4) Always do the wheels first 5) Always rise the wheels first before using agitation also I don't think he even cleaned the inside of the wheels 6) That is not how you apply polish or cutting compound to a pad 7)He did not do a test section with various polishes or compounds first and just assumed that combination would work the best 8) That is way too big of a pad for this car and poor technique cheers!
Yes you are right he should be using 2 buckets, he probably knows he is putting swirl marks but knows he's going to polish it back later on. This guy is only called the "best" because he charges too much and uses really expesive products. There are loads of other professional valeters out there that can do just as good a job or even better with reasonably priced products. He's just selling an impression of being the best and there are people out there willing to pay for this imaginary quality. For example if that wax was so wonderful then it should be preventing swirl marks and dirt sticking to the precious paintwork in the first place, so no need for him putting so much effort trying to polish and levelling the surface the second time round. So there's nothing extraordinary about what his doing.
+headbandassasin LMFAO Why don't you think before making embarrassing comments that clearly reflect your lack of intelligence! Stupid on many levels it doesn't even dignify a repose.
I wash cars myself(mostly classics) and i can't really tell that this man is any master of cleaning since like many people already said before: You don't wash cars in the sun!
For those newbs who say that what he does is wasteful and poor..... This video was taken over 10 years ago, when detailing wasn't anymore advanced than this.... two-bucket method and grit-guards didnt exist back then. Now we have dedicated buckets with grit-guards, foam cannon, iron-X (and similar metal removal sprays).... a lot of tools that used to be unobtainably expensive, are now common place and very inexpensive. Paint depth gauges? used to cost thousands... now a decent one runs about $150 and can come with a camera. And the video was edited poorly as it is.... Also, Paul Dalton is still the best detailer in the world.... he's at a level where the amount of work he can put into a car's cleanliness is beyond obsessive. Its not uncommon for him to spend over 100hours on a car on cleaning, restoring and paint correction. I have a side business detailing cars.... I dont make any money just doing a regular wash and simple wax... that costs me more in labor and products than the $60 i charge. I make big bucks by doing paint correction and sealant applications. Minimum 1-step correction runs $250. Multi-step correction which can add up to having the car for several days including sealing the paint and the wheels.... you're looking at $600 minimum. I work out of a small rental space. I can make a solid $3000/mo just on detailing/correction on top of my full-time day job after my overhead is paid for. For your daily driver? A simple two-bucket method, clay and wax is all you need and that takes just a few hours, if that.
***** The bucket is a £1000 bucket which negatively charges the water forcing 100% of particles into the base of the bucket whilst positively charging the sponge therefore all particles are pulled off the sponge when dipped in
Yeah i know what you mean =) But im pretty sure this bloke is just taking it a tad to fair, i suspect if you knew what you was doing and you had some experience with good cleaning products you could whip up a nice clean car for cheap. I will find out soon as im doing a Car Valeting course, kind of ironic they posted this on youtube when they did aha =D
Lewis Jones You do it like this but with cheaper products. If you want to go even cheaper then you will start scratching the paint, and then you may as well take it to an automatic car wash. You can skip stages like claying and polishing, but you have to do them if you want the result. Nothing he does here is very expensive, except for the power tools and his time.
John Fisher To be fair, he does spend a lot of time, and a lot of expensive products on the cars, imagine spending like two hours on a maseratti and waxing it by hand and then being called by some rich fuck 15 miles away to clean up some bird shit from his 458 italia. He definitely deserves that 5 grand. wealth people pay for comfort and service not necessarily product.
Fair play to the guy.! The main ingredient in his car cleaning is bullshit.!!. And a neck with more brass than a brass band... If you could charge 5k a day to work you would. And don't argue you wouldn't
+uncertainty principle for your poor and cheap car maybe, but mine gets special treatment, I drive it down the freeway during rain for a much more thorough high speed wash, also cleans the underside of the car.
I can't believe this guy used a sponge to wash to wash a car when all decent valeters or detailers recommend the use of a good quality deep pike lambs wool mit... Applying the wax by hand like he done is unheard of too.
That Zymol Vintage Glaze ( 0:09 ) is not £6000. Carnauba lasts a few days, not months ( 4:50 ) and it is quite ridiculous to contaminate with your bare hands!!! Anyone can use overpriced products but Larry Kosilla from AMMO NYC is #1 in my opinion.
Holy $*#t guys, this man is a professional, he doesn't need your stupid tips like "not enough buckets" or "why are you washing it in the sun". This man washes luxury cars for a living, and charges a hell of a lot for it. Im sure he knows exactly what he's doing. Plus, he can examine the car better in the sun, and he washes the car with chilled water, so theres no chance of the paint getting hot and ruining whatever might be on it. Either way, This man can wash a car a hell of a lot better than any of you, even this Ammo dude you people keep talking about.
I'm a full-time valeter for a hire company. Our cars get a cheap ass shampoo, rubbed over with a big brush (it's okay though, the bristles have some rubber bits on the end), then hosed off with a dribbling garden hose with no pressure to take off the simplest of residue. Only the flat surface of the wheels get a wipe, brake dust stays on the spokes. No drying, no polish or wax. That'll do! :-D I get £6.51 per hour..
Know offence but i wash cars in the sun. Just have you a water filter system hooked up. I have one in my mobile van. It purifies the water so when the sun dries it up while im washing, it leaves know water spots. It cost about $400.00. Its worth it. There so many things thats out now that prevent water spot. Dont believe everything you hear about what you dont suppose to do. Positive Flow
Sponge collects lots of tiny dirt particles that are already in the bucket of dirty water and on the surface of the paint and converts them into round shaped scratches(Grit dragging across your paint) caused by circular motion of the car washer's hand then you have to remove all those scratches and this is where the extra cost comes in .Never wash your car with a bucket of water and sponge! Use Sheepskin,Lambswool or deep pile microfibre.Fresh water every time you dipped in!
I use natural and PH neutral soaps, and polishes for my car. But I got a step further than most people as my car is vacuum washed inside and outside. I use a standard fabric stain remover machine inside the car, but the out side I use a large shop-vac with a home made vacuum squeegee that sucks the dirt and soap clean off the car without leaving marks. But after I use a foamer spray on the car to fully soak the car in soapy ph neutral cleaner, then scrub the car with wool mits, than vacuum-squeegee. For rinsing I use a gentle pressure wash, then I do a roll on roll off drying with microfibres cloth till the car is bone dry before I use turtle wax to polish the car via hand.
Aslo Aso Same, but all of the people mentioning this guy and the AMMO NY guy, they damage the paint regardless, using a high pressure water pump to rinse the car also damages the paint, so regardless of all of your hard work, the paint still ends up scratched.
Sponge for washing?? I don't even go my 3000$ car into a cleaner that uses sponges and not a spraying machine! He uses same sponge for upper and lower part of car! And then he get paid to clear those scratches lol!
He was right about bird shit. Never, ever wipe it straight off and get to it asap. Birds eat gravel and they poop it out along with lots of fun acids. Wiping it straight off will net you some lovely scratches which goes well with the etching the acid will perform to the clearcoat.
+Tehxido piss on it to break down the bird shit, then lick it off with your tongue, the texture of your tongue is rough enough to take off the bird shit without damaging your paintwork
+Tehxido add clean water to lift it off the paint then use a microfiber towel to soak up anything that remains. Some modern clearcoats will etch no matter what.
yeah, this guy knows what he’s doing. He’s a perfectionist for the prices that he charges. He better be. Otherwise the owner will be calling him back in no time..
The whole thing is pointless because 24 hours after washing it you're already gonna have dust and dirt on it. Obsessing over every inch of your car is insane. You might as well obsess over getting dirt on your tires and clean them each time you park..
***** I get it if they do this ONCE in a while to truly remove built up gunk in certain places but this is how some people wash their own cars regularly lol. And not even Lamborghinis but shitty old BMW's and ricer rockets.
1. For a lot of people the cost of getting their car cleaned by this guy would be more than their car is worth, including myself, lol. 2. Getting to see and work with top tier cars must be quite a nice job to have. 3. If I got my car this thoroughly cleaned and paid £5000 for it, I'd be so scared of getting a single spec of dirt on it that I'd probably feel put off from diving it, lol.
+Atheist Avenger That's why you shouldn't own a car like that, these cars are incredibly rare and should be kept pristine, wouldn't hesitate to pay £5k for a wash
Atheist Avenger I would write an intelligent response, but then I see your some political wanna be, not only that but you like the fucking Avengers, so embarrassing. As a matter of fact I spend a lot of my day around these types of cars and clean classic Ferraris and Porsches for a living whilst going through Sixth Form, I even clean my Audi the same way, every car should be kept pristine. Saves money in maintenance in the long run and looks nice, not that you care about looking nice, too busy shouting at religious people and pretending to be Thor...
This guy is obviously very good so I can't figure out for the life of me why he makes the rookie mistake of washing the car in direct sunlight? You should never wash in direct sunlight as it can warm up the paint and introduce water spots. Of course the rest would remove them, but why do it?
The top of the range of his services has 61 steps of detailing, in this video 5thgear only show u 10% of his job and steps. Larry and Paul both are the top niche professional and master of auto-detailing. None of u guys pay both of Larry and Paul to detail your car and u just simply say Larry is better than Paul without experience their service and just because Larry has more tutorial video than Paul on Social Media / TH-cam so it show Larry is better? What a childish kind of thought...
Go to school they said, you'll get a good job and make money. Meanwhile Paul Dalton WASHES cars for 5K.... 5 f*&king GRAND!!! lemme go get my bucket....
Blahblah. Having watched this and other crap, I had Dalton do my car a couple of years ago. What a load of bull. He was slow, a bit sloppy, preoccupied with clients that had more expensive cars (he was only doing a Z8 for me, and perhaps it wasn't flashy enough) and I thought he was a total waste of time and money. I've seen better jobs done for a fifth of the £1,000+ he charged me.
I have an all black car and just the other day bought a tub of Meguiar's new Carnuba car wax. WOW - definitely takes out the spider veins and swirl marks - super job!!
Im sure his 5k package is done over a week and includes the engine bay, underside of the car, the lot! Not just a wash, clay, polish and wax for 5k. They make out he'll wash and wax a car for 5k
3:46 "Before he starts rubbing the scratches out" ... that he put there using a sponge and only one bucket to wash it. Also, dear God his drying technique makes me shiver. World's best car cleaner my ass.
cazy Unfortunately not. It's made to give off next to zero parts per million over time. It's not your average home depot bucket. IE, if the bucket gives off small pieces of itself then get on the micro fiber, he's scratching the car. It's a real thing.
+Victor Maslo Not really. If not washing the car or washing it incorrectly devalues the car considerably, then this guy is saving them more money than they're spending.
lol...He’s using Zymol products. I used to use Zymol as a teenager. Yes, that wax is expensive but they refill it for free for life (or at least used to). Back when I used Zymol wax, I used the one down from this which was “only” around $1k. Nowadays I only use CarPro products and nano-ceramic coatings. I guess if I was a professional I’d be putting myself out of business as the ceramic coatings protect paint from needing correction like this as often.
@@jumpercable20 In the UK.. The sun only gives light, the heat it provides is negligible except for a few days in the summer it might reach 20 degrees C

I'd never take her out again if she did that.
The scratches that his clients are paying through the ass to remove are being induced upon the finish during "Step 3" of Paul's routine.

Best car detailer and yet he still uses one bucket during a wash? Interesting. Where's Larry from ammo nyc at?
These cars aren't daily drivers so wouldn't get covered in shit like a normal car.
***** Why not use the 2 bucket all the time, as therefore it reduces the chance of extra correction work, let alone this guy uses sponges WTF
I know what you mean, clean the spunge in one bucket and use the other one to wash the car with, but if you listened carefully and look carefully you can see it are 'two buckets in one'' the bucket exists out of two parts, the filth and dirt sinks to the bottom wich is separated with a net so the dirt falls trough and sinks and stays at the bottom.

If you clean and dry the paint, you don't want to put dirt/water on it again when you clean the wheels/wheel arches, plus the products used for this cleaning are more aggresive than the ones for the paint
So when are you supposed to do the wheels? If you do them first you run the risk of scratching the paint
Before so it doesn't matter if you slash the paint because you rince it after
But what about scratching the paint?

Sponge collects lots of tiny dirt particles that are already in the bucket of dirty water and on the surface of the paint and converts them into round shaped scratches(Grit dragging across your paint) caused by circular motion of the car washer's hand then you have to remove all those scratches and this is where the extra cost comes in .Never wash your car with a bucket of water and sponge! Use Sheepskin,Lambswool or deep pile microfibre.Fresh water every time you dipped in!
Going to join the bandwagon. I'd give the 5k to Larry at ammo nyc instead
He chosen a sponge and a bucket with the uttermost care.
one bucket method for 5k wow I WANT LOL,,,
+steve b one bucket method, in the sun, using a sponge.....
steve b next time you will see he charges 1K for a machine wash
I use natural and PH neutral soaps, and polishes for my car.
But I got a step further than most people as my car is vacuum washed inside and outside.
I use a standard fabric stain remover machine inside the car, but the out side I use a large shop-vac with a home made vacuum squeegee that sucks the dirt and soap clean off the car without leaving marks. But after I use a foamer spray on the car to fully soak the car in soapy ph neutral cleaner, then scrub the car with wool mits, than vacuum-squeegee. For rinsing I use a gentle pressure wash, then I do a roll on roll off drying with microfibres cloth till the car is bone dry before I use turtle wax to polish the car via hand.
Aslo Aso Same, but all of the people mentioning this guy and the AMMO NY guy, they damage the paint regardless, using a high pressure water pump to rinse the car also damages the paint, so regardless of all of your hard work, the paint still ends up scratched.
Russell Tang He uses a low pressure water pump and filtered water
Just take it through a Tesco car wash and save money
Why would you want scratches and swirl marks on cars worth hundreds of thousands? That's going to cost you rather than save you money.

Repainting the car after a few years must be cheaper?
repainting isn't always an option, especially on very rare old cars. Paint jobs for these cars would also be quite a bit more expensive
original paint is alot better in terms of resale value 👍
"World's best car cleaner"
*(Literally anyone with a decent amount of detailing experience laughing in the distance)*
Says it all!
This ad for Miracle Detail is about ten years old..
I use wax that is 25k usd per kilo. It can only be found on the moon.
This guy is not very good! Hes washing a car in the sun! That's a no no! Larry at ammo nyc is way better
Larry is the best in the business. AMMO NYC
I was gonna say the same thing !! What a moron ...
He earns more in a week then you do in a year and unlike you he cleans cars you could only dream of having
ragasdapper LOL I love this sentiment. "He makes a lot of money so shut up."No ever said money buys you brains.
***** brains well he must be doing some thing right if his clients keep coming back with there expensive cars
so many car washer experts in this coment section i didnt know there was so much detail in washing a car like using 2 buckets, amazing!!!!
about 99% lol
Sponge for washing?? I don't even go my 3000$ car into a cleaner that uses sponges and not a spraying machine!
He uses same sponge for upper and lower part of car! And then he get paid to clear those scratches lol!
Best car detailer and he washed in direct sunlight
He was right about bird shit. Never, ever wipe it straight off and get to it asap. Birds eat gravel and they poop it out along with lots of fun acids. Wiping it straight off will net you some lovely scratches which goes well with the etching the acid will perform to the clearcoat.
+afrosheenix so what are you mean to do?
+Tehxido piss on it to break down the bird shit, then lick it off with your tongue, the texture of your tongue is rough enough to take off the bird shit without damaging your paintwork
+Tehxido add clean water to lift it off the paint then use a microfiber towel to soak up anything that remains. Some modern clearcoats will etch no matter what.
+Tehxido Keep a bottle of quick detail spray around, spray it on, let it set, and wipe it off.
No snow foam, washing in the sun, Best car cleaner in the world my arse
OOOHH,microfiber blankets and clay,no one in the world uses that on a car..how exclusive..lol
They do,you don't know how to wash a car
yeah, this guy knows what he’s doing. He’s a perfectionist for the prices that he charges. He better be. Otherwise the owner will be calling him back in no time..
The whole thing is pointless because 24 hours after washing it you're already gonna have dust and dirt on it. Obsessing over every inch of your car is insane. You might as well obsess over getting dirt on your tires and clean them each time you park..
***** I get it if they do this ONCE in a while to truly remove built up gunk in certain places but this is how some people wash their own cars regularly lol. And not even Lamborghinis but shitty old BMW's and ricer rockets.
I'll be happy with my $9 turtle wax car wash + any of my old shirts to dry it off :)
watching this made me realise how dirty my computer screen is.
i'm embarassed
Don't get him to clean it!
1. For a lot of people the cost of getting their car cleaned by this guy would be more than their car is worth, including myself, lol.
2. Getting to see and work with top tier cars must be quite a nice job to have.
3. If I got my car this thoroughly cleaned and paid £5000 for it, I'd be so scared of getting a single spec of dirt on it that I'd probably feel put off from diving it, lol.
Piss on it lol.
5 grand! my $9.50 wash n wax does prefectly well thanks. Ill keep the $4990.50 thanks.
TheFunkhouser no its £5,000 its nearly $6,500
Imagine the saving you'd make over the life time of your car!
I couldn't find this detailers link in the description, plz post the link here.
I need 3 Days to clean my Car perfectly :D
Drinker?
RP No im a perfectionist ;)
I find that washing with an old sweeping brush achieves best results.
Those teeth could use a good buffing
lmfao
- be nice mate
Lol
Not only does he use a sponge, but he uses one bucket.
If you're good at something never do it for free - Joker
One bucket. I love it. You don't need 2 buckets and all that grit guard crap.
Felt like a long and boring advert by a desperate company as a last ditch attempt at reviving a dying business.
You're right!
+Samara Weaving wanna see a dirty car been cleaned for real? come to my channel!!!
sausagetastic?
+Atheist Avenger That's why you shouldn't own a car like that, these cars are incredibly rare and should be kept pristine, wouldn't hesitate to pay £5k for a wash
Atheist Avenger I would write an intelligent response, but then I see your some political wanna be, not only that but you like the fucking Avengers, so embarrassing. As a matter of fact I spend a lot of my day around these types of cars and clean classic Ferraris and Porsches for a living whilst going through Sixth Form, I even clean my Audi the same way, every car should be kept pristine. Saves money in maintenance in the long run and looks nice, not that you care about looking nice, too busy shouting at religious people and pretending to be Thor...
This guy is obviously very good so I can't figure out for the life of me why he makes the rookie mistake of washing the car in direct sunlight? You should never wash in direct sunlight as it can warm up the paint and introduce water spots. Of course the rest would remove them, but why do it?
The top of the range of his services has 61 steps of detailing, in this video 5thgear only show u 10% of his job and steps.
Larry and Paul both are the top niche professional and master of auto-detailing. None of u guys pay both of Larry and Paul to detail your car and u just simply say Larry is better than Paul without experience their service and just because Larry has more tutorial video than Paul on Social Media / TH-cam so it show Larry is better? What a childish kind of thought...
in the sun, 1 bucket, is that a sponge? Doesn't seem very high end to me!
Larry at AMMO NYC would have a heart attack!
5k and your car gets washed in the sun with a sponge?????????
The first step in washing is the wheels always wash the wheels first. Or that's what i have been told from car cleaners.
OK, I really feel dirty now.
It makes me proud to know he imports the finest quality products from America
This is pretty much a video of what NOT to do when washing/detailing your car.
+Neil Lee Yeah, Im sure he has no clue what he is doing. Pls enlighten us.
Go to school they said, you'll get a good job and make money.
Meanwhile Paul Dalton WASHES cars for 5K.... 5 f*&king GRAND!!! lemme go get my bucket....
I prefer Larry at Ammo NYC
That's awesome. I guess if you're really passionate about something, and driven, you can be successful in almost any proffession.
Blahblah. Having watched this and other crap, I had Dalton do my car a couple of years ago. What a load of bull. He was slow, a bit sloppy, preoccupied with clients that had more expensive cars (he was only doing a Z8 for me, and perhaps it wasn't flashy enough) and I thought he was a total waste of time and money. I've seen better jobs done for a fifth of the £1,000+ he charged me.
I have an all black car and just the other day bought a tub of Meguiar's new Carnuba car wax. WOW - definitely takes out the spider veins and swirl marks - super job!!
I wonder what Larry from AMMO would say about this... I think this is bullshit.
+Audiojackful I concur!
+Audiojackful hahaha! maybe 100% of his liquids comes from ammo
At what point do you begin rubbing off the layers of clear coat over the paint? I assume after a few buffings the clear coat
must be thinning out.
The detail guys in the US would obliterate this guy. Washing in direct sunlight. Not using two buckets etc. This guy is minor league at best.
Im sure his 5k package is done over a week and includes the engine bay, underside of the car, the lot! Not just a wash, clay, polish and wax for 5k. They make out he'll wash and wax a car for 5k
So many car- washing experts in the comments. Next life, try studying in school.
I know, one of them thinks rain is a cleaning product.
So what are you trying to say??
3:46 "Before he starts rubbing the scratches out" ... that he put there using a sponge and only one bucket to wash it. Also, dear God his drying technique makes me shiver.
World's best car cleaner my ass.
+SomethingPossibly tell me more about your pro car cleaning knowledge master.
+BananaBread I'm no genius, I don't claim to be. I just know this is detailing 101; you don't do shit like this.
No wonder he´s laughing lol
Thats not Larry from AMMONYC thoooooo
The wheel cleaners that are basically acid do it's job, but you have to wash it off relatively quick or it will corrode the rims
If you want to clean a car perfect, you HAVE to remove wheels.
This guy is nothing but a crook.
That bucket can literally be bought for a couple dollars at any hardware store in the US.
cazy Unfortunately not. It's made to give off next to zero parts per million over time. It's not your average home depot bucket. IE, if the bucket gives off small pieces of itself then get on the micro fiber, he's scratching the car. It's a real thing.
sad what people spend money on
+Victor Maslo Not really. If not washing the car or washing it incorrectly devalues the car considerably, then this guy is saving them more money than they're spending.
+Victor Maslo To ultra wealthy people 5,000 is nothing.
+Victor Maslo Them spending this money now goes to a not-rich-car-cleaner, which is a good thing.
+Victor Maslo Typical answer from an uneducated person tbh
lol...He’s using Zymol products. I used to use Zymol as a teenager. Yes, that wax is expensive but they refill it for free for life (or at least used to). Back when I used Zymol wax, I used the one down from this which was “only” around $1k. Nowadays I only use CarPro products and nano-ceramic coatings. I guess if I was a professional I’d be putting myself out of business as the ceramic coatings protect paint from needing correction like this as often.
Shouldn't he start the wash out of the sun?
I thought that, shouldn't he also rinse the sponge in a different bucket (aka the two bucket method)
He proberly used 1 bucket to save time although you will get more scratches he polished the car after to remove the scratches
hakman239 If youre paying thousands for wash, the last thing I want to hear is cutting corners to save time
It's ok to wash in the sun, it's more important that the surface of the vehicle is not HOT. That's why it's a no no to wash in the sun.
@@jumpercable20 In the UK.. The sun only gives light, the heat it provides is negligible except for a few days in the summer it might reach 20 degrees C
This kind of money should be donated to charity.
