Re: I'm afraid to wash my car! - 22 years ago
Wayne, I'll take a crack at this one too. I live in an area of snow, salt and dirt and wash a navy blue metallic explorer almost every day to keep it looking great. I have the advantage to wash inside. Taking advice from this board, I rinse with lots of soft water, use a cotton chanille (Spelling?) mit and wash the car. I put the mitt in the bucket and load it up with suds and run it accrossby Bill Hoffman - Auto Detailing: Secrets of the Experts

waffle pads - 22 years ago
I have been using a finish pad to clean a clear coat on a Ford Exploder. While buffing things seem to be going fine, than I start to get a build up that is tough to remove and has the texture of a hard wax. What is it? And if you please, what is the benefit of using a waffle pad verses a Milwaukee Finish Foam pad? Thanks in advance! Billby Bill Hoffman - Auto Detailing: Secrets of the Experts
Re: No dirty wash mitts - 22 years ago
A great idea, but I prefer the two bucket method. A few weeks ago when I posted my micro scratch problem, post washing, the two bucket method was recommended. I use a very soft long handled brush, after I swipe the car, I dip in the clean water bucket and shake it, than load up with shampoo and go back at it. Do you prefer the mitt to wash?

Washing - 23 years ago
I just buffed and polished my Explorer over the weekend with a final coat of Zymol. Today was the first wash job after a trip in the salt and slush. I used my soft bristled brush and wow, a million tiny scratches. I used lots of water, lots of suds, still.....scratches. Any words of wisdom out there? justbillby Bill Hoffman - Auto Detailing: Secrets of the Experts
