1 bucket wash method

[dennis hiip]

I just watched a YouTube video by Forensic Detailing. He hose rinses a short nap mitt after each panel. Shows how it keeps mitt cleaner and safer for paint and how this is better than the trusted 2 bucket method.

And since you are in Kalifornia how would that work for you? Water restrictions? I could see you out there blasting a mit with a free flowing hose and all that water running down the street and your neighbbors looking at you :props:

The 2 Bucket method is a time tested and proven method and this person is, well I'll just leave it at this :bash:

Even better, use a separate MF towel per section. That way, a used towel is never used twice.

I use 2 bucket with grit guards, and 3 mitts on my Ram. One for the topsides, and one for each bottom sides.

I washed vehicles this way for decades;
Nowadays...not so much.

Just what makes Ecclesiastes such an authority on the 1:9 ratio??

Huh Bob?? HUH?????

I'm in California and that's how I bucket wash vehicles. [minus the free flowing water hose]
Neighbors looking at me? Pfft... If anyone's seriously butthurt about someone else on their block using their own water hose, then they really need to get a life.

Kalifornia?

I use his method a lot. FWIW, no more water restrictions here in Cali.

Here's a prime example:

•J&M...a good choice in leather
dress shoes. With that said:

•I wonder if J&M uses a (natural)
vegetable-tanning process; or,
a (synthetic) chrome-tanning
process...for their shoe leathers?

-That would be the basis of my
decision to use Perl, or not, on
these leather dress shoes.

Eldo thumbing his nose at the man! Lol

Honestly though, a water wash (and yes, I've metered it) is around 12 gallons. (Two buckets, plus/soak rinse.)

Small amount compared to say a leaky toilet flapper which can waste up to 80 gallons of water over a months time.

Btw I'm outside as we speak testing out my new quik connect for my hose & nozzle... And if any of the neighbors got a problem with it then they better be skipping showers or something crazier than me simply washing my dang car. Lol.

This guy uses short nap faux wool mitts from China (on ebay) that cost less than $1.50 each. I'm going to get a half dozen or so and forego the hosing. Just use a clean mitt each panel.

Apparently it has yet to totally dawn upon
you that deciphering data, and perceiving
patterns, are a couple of my strong suits.
