Wash, Vac, and Spray Wax - 02 Chevy Suburban - EHUTH1

  • Degrease Problem areas (tar, bugs, mud etc...) and followed with quick Rinse
  • Clean wheels, tires and wells with "The Brown Stuff" Spray on let sit for 5-10 seconds and rinse *Amazing AIO degreaser cleaner! Oh yea I've been taking chrome wheel acid (white lightning) and spraying on exhaust pipes to bring back the aluminum look. Works really well.
  • FOAM GUN - 2 caps of DG901 and 1 oz of flash wax *Drying Agent
  • Let this sit for 5 Minutes while I get a break
  • Spray off foam. Start at the top and make your way down to the bottom.
  • MF Towel dry using Wet-N-Wipe Speed Glaze QD. This breaks the water and releases so I'm not wiping beads but a thin layer of residual.
  • Next we drag the vac out and start in the rear and come to the front hitting all the cracks and crevices.
  • Grabbed a old MF towel and used some Awesome APC to clean the scuffs and cup holders.
  • I always do the tires next along with the wells, running boards, and bumper trim, then I follow that up with the cleaning of the wheels and chrome bumpers if any.
  • While I'm waiting for the tire shine to settle in I go inside and wash my hands and get my waffle weaves and AIM glass cleaner and hit all the windows inside and out.
  • It's just about time for Souveran Spray Wax. This to works good outside so you can see your results. I don't know what sparks this stuff but when oxygen gets to it the paint starts to glow!!
  • Now it's time to final inspect and take it back to the customer.

Very nice write up and process! I've been using some of the drying agent too. Work really well. My Guzzlers are about half as wet and I don't have to wipe the windows more than once.

So are you seriously not even washing these cars? Does the extreme SNOWSTORM of foam just "wash" the car for you?

Oh yes.....yes there is.

Same principals as a rinseless wash. Chemicals do the work and then the final drying takes care of the rest. I've been doing it for weeks now. My clients love it and so do I.
