Can I wash my car at your place in PDX? I'll bring beer...
 
Moving back to Portland, won't have a garage or place to wash and wax. Can I come over to your house? Every two weeks or so on the weekend.

I'll bring the beer of your choice in exchange.

Westside or Eastside? I'm in Beaverton and have a hose outside my house you can use.

I've been using this exclusively on my cars for 5 years. Don't have to use water, or a bucket, or have a big space to work in. I wash my car inside my garage. You could wash your car on the side of the street or in a parking lot, it's easy and all you need is that bottle and a few micro fibers.

Might not be the best idea if your car is black, but any other color should be fine.

What's with the hub caps? Naked steelies cramping your style?

Wife gave them to me for Christmas. I had them on the first winter and have "forgot" the last two.

Thoughtful gift.

If you're near Troutdale you can bring it over to my place. I just got a fancy new pressure washer and a foam cannon for my nasty car.

You might be surprised with enough patience.

For that type of situation, I actually do bring water into the occasion. I will spray the panel down with UWWA really well, do a single wipe with micro fiber over the entire wetted panel, then wash out the micro fiber in the sink before continuing with the next area. But I do this in the sink in my garage, or in the kitchen sink in the house.

You could use a bucket if you wanted, but it'd be there just to soak/wring out the micro fiber... so you could still avoid needing a hose or making a mess. So you'd just fill a bucket to the top with clean water and you'd make it dirty with the micro fiber.
