People who drive cars will always have to clean their beloved cars. However, car wash shops sometimes run out of stock, so think about the possibility that you will have to wash yourself. Try this car wash guide.
I. Spray water all over the car
Use a water hose to spray the entire car body to "soften" the stain, the goal is to wet the car, not "strong" spray. Dirty substances in contact with water will soften, facilitating strong spraying later.
Currently, at car washes, the first thing the "photos" usually do is spray high-pressure water into the car. The reason is that they want to spray all the sand before spraying snow foam.
But the problem is that before cleaning, that sand was pressed down by a strong pressure and slid across the painted surface for a while before flying away. This is invisible to the naked eye, but in fact it can create scratches that no one knows.
II. Cleaning floor cushions
Remove floor mats from rinse car, wash and dry. Put it back in the car after cleaning the interior.
III. Wash the wheels, trays and undercarriages
Prepare a tire brush, underbody brush, wheel and underbody cleaning cloth, soft brush. Use 1 bucket of clean water and mix 1 bucket of car wash solution, the ratio according to the manufacturer's recommendations (my shop uses Sonax type, but if you want to save money, use type 2 solution, which is widely available in the market. or shampoo, do not use dishwashing liquid or washing powder
Use a high-pressure nozzle to spray in the order of wheels, tires, wheel cavities and steps. Use a soft brush + a towel to clean the wheels, a brush to scrub the tires, a soft brush + a towel to clean the wheel cavity and steps.
Items must be dipped in a bucket of solution before cleaning and in a bucket of water to remove dirt before cleaning another part. After washing each part, rinse it gently with water, avoiding the solution and dry dirt to stick to the car.
Spray underbody with a high-pressure nozzle (avoid spraying underbody from the first step when the engine is still hot, it will damage the engine). Use a brush and towel dipped in the solution to scrub the underbody and the inside of the wheels, spraying again the cleaned parts.
IV. Car body wash
Prepare a soft brush, a cleaning cloth for the car body (use a specialized Microfiber cloth, you can buy it at the car accessories store at Metro supermarket), 1 bucket of clean water and 1 bucket of water. car wash solution.
Use a high-pressure nozzle to spray water evenly on the body of the vehicle from top to bottom, from front to back (nozzle angle is about 30º - 45º, the distance between the nozzle and the body depends on the spray pressure of each type of nozzle, the water force. The spray should be strong enough to remove the stain and not too strong to scratch the paintwork). The heavily soiled areas have been softened in Step I, and the water will wash away more easily when sprayed.
Use 2 buckets of water, 1 bucket with clean water and 1 bucket with enough water to mix with a specialized car wash solution. Dip a car wash cloth into the bucket of solution and gently scrub each part in a top-to-bottom direction. Wash horizontally or vertically, limit washing in a circular motion.
Soft brush used to make books of recessed and edge details. When partially finished, dip towels and brushes in a bucket of clean water, wash and wring them out, before dipping in the bucket of solution. This is to minimize the carrying of dirt, soil and sand from the area being cleaned into the solution tank and back to rub on the paint surface.
In the usual way of washing cars, you will notice that the shops will spray snow foam all over the body, then the mechanic just uses a rag and scrubs it from the roof to the bonnet, from front to back, even the car. car body.
So if there is still a little soil and sand left on the car, it has been "pulled" from place to place, along with strong scrubbing force will scratch the paint layer, as a result, the car's paint will last for a long time. No matter how good it is, it will be scratched and discolored
Car washes often use dish soap to wash the car (cost saving), this is extremely toxic to the car's paint because the dishwashing solution is very alkaline (If you wash it at home, you have to pay attention to it). Remember to use a specialized solution or at least a shampoo to wash your car!)
V. Drain the water
Drain the water in sections as soon as you finish washing to wash away the soap film and dirt, avoid letting the solution dry on the surface, and stick to the car.
Use the high-pressure nozzle as directed above to spray the entire vehicle thoroughly after washing.
BECAUSE. Dry
Use a dry towel (this type, you must also use a specialized type) to wipe the whole car, avoid letting the water dry on its own, which will leave blurred water trails. The technique of using a dry towel is similar to the process of using a car wash towel.
After washing, you will notice that the car paint is brighter, cleaner and smoother to the touch
The reason is that in the specialized car wash solution that contains a certain amount of shine conditioner, this polish will make the paint more difficult to stick to dust and shine than normal washing.
VII. Interior cleaning
Clean ashtrays.
Wipe the dust and dirt on the dashboard (clock area, storage compartment, gear lever, steering wheel, ...), the inside of the doors and door edges, the side of the car with a damp cloth, use the air hose to dry it after finished wiping.
Use a dry cloth and specialized glass cleaner to clean the glass parts.
Use a damp cloth + vacuum cleaner to clean other interior parts of the car.
VIII. Tire maintenance spray
Tire curing fluid will protect the rubber and keep the tires shiny black. Spray the tire maintenance solution after you have completed the car wash steps.
IX. Check the condition of the car
Check the whole car, use a specialized cleaner to remove some stubborn stains such as glue, asphalt, bird droppings...
