I have been detailing for the better part of thirty years. I've made a ton of mistakes and learned a lot. To this day, my process continues to evolve.
My current process includes following Ivan's recommendation for washing with ONR and drying with the aid of Opti Seal. I modified his process a bit to involve a pre-rinse with my pressure washer and a single bucket with a clean Megs MF mitt for each panel.
Where I struggle is with tires, wheels and wheel-wells. I've invested a good amount of money in various tools like foam cannons and my Karcher pressure washer, and I still find foaming quite satisfying despite trusting in my heart of hearts that it's not the best wash method. I've decided to dedicate my foam cannon to washing wheels and wells, exclusively. My question is, other than AMMO wheel soap, does anyone use a stronger shampoo or wheel soap in their cannon? I've gotten cheap these days and I cannot justify the price of the boutique AMMO stuff and I feel like I could use something a little stronger than shampoo.
I found a deal on 5 gallons on Cherry Suds on Amazon and I hate it! HA. I use it in my foam cannon and the foaming action sucks. So before I go and buy a Honeydew or whatever, I thought I'd check if anyone is in a similar boat.
THANKS!
