Absolutely loving this series. Having just had my Discovery 5 ceramic coated I have gone out and bought all new car equipment. Don't get me wrong I will still take my car to a detailer every couple months but I do enjoy washing it myself. Glad to have found your channel!! 👍

Brilliant video Dave, the two bucket method is better than one.these short videos are cool to see.

[antonywalker]

Even though I have worked alongside side you on many occasions. I've got some idea of what is involved in car valeting. I still think this idea of tutorials is brilliant. Well done David. Dad😇

[marlonbhagwandeen]

Go on Dave my son - keep churning out these vids...really great and informative! 👊

[xxVanos]

Thanks for the video mate! What I usually do is spray another round of snow foam before my two bucket wash. More lubrication and also the foam acts as a guide for potential areas I might have missed. 😜

Thank you for the video Dave. You gave great advice. Keep up the good work mate. 👍

[eamonkelly]

Thanks for the great video Dave, great advice as always 👌👌👍👍

I also like the two bucket method because I don't need as much water and soap for my wash bucket. I always measure my liquid soap per directions. Depending on the soap and dilution ratios I reckon that I get at least an extra wash or two from each container of shampoo. I.e. instead of 3 gallons of water for just the wash bucket I use 1 gallon for rinse and only 2 gallons for the wash. So instead of using (for example) 2oz.of soap per gallon x3=6oz. I need only 4oz. of soap. Win-win...a more effective method of cleaning and more economical too.

Hello Dave good video mate :) I use 1 bucket with 2 grit guards in it but pressure wash 1st then foam and rinse again then contact wash. I only use rain water for the car from a 3275lt or 720 imp gallons rain water tank.

More info vids, cheers Dave, keep ‘em coming

I am contemplating using a one bucket method with an empty one by its side. Don’t use a mitt or a pad, but use 10 or so plush microfibres (500 GSM or more ) and as soon as it’s say done a 1/4 of the car put it straight in empty bucket, never put it back in the water bucket, then use a fresh microfibre as so on, this will eliminate any grit touching the car 100% and save on water too

Thanks again, , these "bite size" videos, are absolutely brilliant for us detailing beginners, ,
Great Stuff, , , ,
ps, , link to the wash pad.???

[gijoemolinaro]

[CLSSiCS]

I personally use the 2 bucket method, I do a panel, flop the mitt then rinse it under some water and dunk it, I'm going to try to get 2 buckets wkth a grit guard tho

[steveh]
