car soap before during or after 3-5 gallon of water?

I fill with water, add the soap concentrate and then use the mitt to mix in the soap.

Definitely water first, then add soap. Swish around with grit guard or blast quickly with pressure washer.

Soap last or you will get a ton of suds overflowing your bucket. After pouring in your soap, blast it with a strong stream of water..this will mix the soap and create suds.

This works best for me

Watch how he mixes the bucket with his hand because "suds aren't a crucial part of the washing process." And I agree!

Put about 3 gallons of water in the bucket first and then add the soap. I like to use the Mike Phillips method of using my hand for mixing. Then give it a blast of water to build up the suds.
