View Full Version : To wash or not to wash, that is the question

Hi folks,

I bought a new car back in August, and have prepped the paint myself. It is in pristine condition minus a few minor stratches from shopping carts, etc. Right now it is protected with DG111 and 845. I have not washed the car in over a month because of the cold weather in the northeast. The car is parked outside, and I don't have access to water even on milder days because I live in an apt (the wash bay outside is shut for the season). The car is looking pretty dirty, but I am concerned about using one of those touchless washes for fear that it will strip the sealants I have on it. Is this thinking overkill, or do you think a wash or two through the touchless will be okay considering I have 111 and 845 on it.

Thanks!

Go to a wash bay and rinse it off then perform a rinseless wash on the car.

I know if your in the city your only options are waterless wash, rinseless wash or the dreaded carwash. I'd get a bucket and do a rinseless wash.
