water vs. waterless

which do you perfer to wash your truck with?

like di water?
or hose water?
or have you ever tried the meguiars last touch waterless spray detailer?


(i personally use the waterless.. its clean and easy)

 

hose water with zymol care soap

 

In CA I'm seeing advertisements not to wash your truck in a place where the water drains to the gutter - In other words- go to a car wash or wash so that your lawn filters the water. The problem they are pointing to is copper (from brake dust) in the sea - detrimental to the fish! I like fish. I like copper. But I don't like copper fish!

 

haha

 

I went to a car wash on Saturday, My antenna is now gone for good.

 

Check out Optimum No Rinse. You can wash your car with about 2 gallons of water without rinsing very quickly.

It's also great in the winter for getting the salt/grime off inside your garage and out of the weather.

 

I've had antenna's ripped off and license plates bent to hell. If I dont wash it myself. I ONLY go to a Touch-free car wash.

 

I picked up some Armor-All Wash n Wax at Autozone the other day, and that stuff is pretty good. It doesn't stay foamy like Cherry Power did, but still does a good job. I also picked up some Meguiars Quik Detailer, and that stuff is pretty good also. I save my Zaino for a once a month job.

 

I only fully *wash* my truck when the wax has worn off (you can tell this by the behavior of water on the exterior). It gets a weekly rinse, vacuum, and de-bug-gutsing. If I had to estimate, I'd say a full wash 5 to 6 times per year.

I do a full detail (wash, clay, wax, detail interior) about once a year.

No water what' so ever!

 

I do a full wash behind my house every two weeks. I paste wax 3 to 4 times a year and wipe down after every wash to remove water spots.
