    7 oz to 2 gallons is what I use for "average" grit or when I wanna "reset" the paint (although I use 3 oz to 1 gallon).

    I read somewhere it's better to have less in the containerI've come to realize.......Winter Washing

    Re: I've come to realize.......Winter Washing

    Back home I knew 3 or 4 coin operated wash places .. I've only seen one here in the Motown & the City knocked it down to park snowplows ..

    I have one carwash coupon left ... might have to use it. Their brushes are foam, but still .. and its only January

    3oz to a gallon a weaker dilution than 7 to 2 gallon… I've come to realize.......Winter Washing

    Less in container will allow to pump in air more and pressurize better. In winter you can go as strong as 5/100 with touchless so as strong as 6oz to 1 gallon.

    Yeah your ratio is .5 oz more. Right now I've got 6 oz of Pure:est alkaline snow foam pre-wash ready to go to see how it goes, although I washed the EN a couple days ago and didn't have my IK with me. It's still dirty as it's been raining/foggy for the past 4 days since it's wash, we'll see how it goes I've come to realize.......Winter Washing
