Re: waxing prophetically, or how to deal with clearcoat
Interesting note about the fundraiser carwash and the broom/brush.....
An expert detailer I know says the only way to safely wash a car is with a
brush, not a cloth or even a terry towel, use a brush. Use lotsah foam and
rinse the brush after every panel if the car is real dirty. The dirt and
grit rinses out of the brush far better Vs any type of cloth. Cloth tends
to trap the dirt and grit and you basiscally end up 'sanding' your paint.
He suggests using a special 'car-wash brush' and that they actually
break-in and get better with age, just like men and fine wine. Or use a
push-broom brush without the handle. I bought a 'car-wash brush' at a local
autoparts store in NH called Robbins Automotive, was like $6 US. Work
great!
Happy brushing,
