Clean my car

[Venom86]

Hello ladies and gents, I’m sick of going to car washes that end up just scratching your paint or “your car is too low.” I would like to get into cleaning the car myself sooooo what’s the best ish to use for rims body windows?

Soap and a sponge

Go on youtube and search Optimum No Rinse. I use that and it works great - there's technique to use with it and lots of videos that cover how to use it. Also saves a lot on water - you literally don't need a hose, although I do sometimes rinse my car off if it's especially dirty.

Use 2 buckets. 1 with soap/water mix, the other water. Spray car with hose to loosen dirt. Soak sponge in soapy water, wipe down car. Before putting sponge back in the soap, clean it off in the bucket of water. Replace water in bucket as often as needed. The reason you clean the sponge each time is to keep contaminants off the sponge that might otherwise scratch your paint.

This, and buy some grit guards so the dirt falls through to bottom of the buckets and help prevent your sponge from sinking down and picking that crap up.

Under your kitchen sink is a bottle of Windex. Grab that and a couple of paper towels and just go to town. Don't bother with all that soap and water crap... the nice thing is that you can also use it on your interior too. I usually go through about half a bottle each time, so you might want to buy it in bulk online.

Look up AmmoNyc on YouTube. Watch some great vids and learn. Do what he says. Your car will be great looking.
