What’s your wash and dry process?

I pressure wash the hellcat, small ones work great.

Pressure washers are a must

If you don’t get under it with a pressure washer some guys put one of those oscillating sprinklers underneath and leave them there for a while.

I’m currently getting mine prepped and ceramic coated with Gtechniq CSL and EVO. Once I get it back I’ll be washing with carpro reset with a foam gun and pressure washer. Then two bucket method. Dry with puffle. And every month or two finish it with Gtechniq C2V3. Trying out chemical guys VRP on tires, fenders and hardtop, depending on results may switch to 303.
First time using ceramic so pretty excited, should make washing go much easier.
My wife’s Subaru we drove in mountains of Colorado on highway 25 miles each way, it took a beating in winters. Now know I have to wash it like crazy in the winters or salt and sand eat it up!
Just ordered the pressure washer to up my game. Will be pretty OCD with the Jeep

If your dealer offers 'lifetime' car washes...be careful of the car washes that uses swirling fabric strips. We call them 'flap and scratch car washes'. The fabric can hold dirt from the previous (or your) vehicle and drag it over your paint. Guaranteed scratches and swirl marks, on darker colors..especially black.

Usually just go through the auto washes and I'll also hit the "do-it-yourself" washes so I can spray out the undercarriage and suspension components.

I have always and only will use Moonshine car care products!!! Living in AZ the soils stains the paint and fenders. I use the bullet proof on trim and paint before ever wheeling and it protects it from staining. I do not own or work for this company in any way shape or form!

I wash....and then I dry.

What about the winters? Here in Chicago, there's a lot of salt on the ground, so that causes parts to rust even faster. It is important to wash right after every snowfall. Yet again, hand car washes are above $20 every time. A drive thru wash is about $3 but you do run the risk of scratching some parts.

I built a portable spray bar for the under side that hooks up to the garden hose and installed a ball valve so I can get the Jeep or the RV. Simply hook up the hose, clamp it to a 2x4, turn on the hose and driver over. Gets the underside spotless every time.. for the body I just use the pressure washer with soap, an extendable brush to scrub then rinse and dry with the leaf blower. Wax a couple times a year when needed..

I should add, I don't think he talked about, used or even if it was available then, but a good foam gun works wonders.
