Help me take care of my baby at campus! [camry not a kid]

Hello All,


I need to know all things about campus detailing! haha.. I need to find some solutions to be able to clean my car in the parking garage :\ There is ZERO water hookups here!

I am thinking I need a great waterless wash.

I need a great portable / low powered vaccum I can use with a power inverter off of my 4 banger.

Not sure what I can do to rinse anything.. Still havent figured that out


Help appreciated

Im about to go psycho with my baby so dirty

Ryan

I am in your situation right now as well. I have been using the DP 4 in 1 and I just ordered some PB spray and wipe. As well as ## ONE just to see what happens.

One thing I did but the realty company didnt like to much was get an adapter for a sink and than run a hose outside and wash your car with that late at night. If you have a window with a parking lot close to it you can do it if not your outta luck.

What I do when it gets pretty dirty is I go over to the coin op. wash and just use the pressure washer, than I bring it home and use the 4n1. I have used the coin op's lights at night to do waxes and what not and I havent had any problems yet.....

If you find out something really good let me know.

I saw a dewalt wet/dry shop vac that runs off the cordless batteries or you can plug it in at either home depot or lowes today. If I remember right, it was a 2 gallon vac, and priced right around $100.00. Wouldn't have to use a power inverter with it.
