Finally washed my car with Adams
While not counting the waterless wash. It came out looking great! I cleaned the wheel wheels/tires and rims. Then I used the foam gun and set it on B. I put the whole bottle of wash in the gun. Questioned: How many washes should I be able to get out of a bottle of wash with the faom gun on B plus using it in the wash bucket with the grit guard. Looks like I used about half. What is the best way to clean with wash pad and is it ok if I leave it in the soap until the next day? The only problem I had was drying the car. The drying towel got wet pretty fast and I had to use a lot of small micro fiber towel to finish. I forgot about pooling the water and when I watch the adams video adam doesn't do that. I blow out water with a air compressor but I didn't use my leaf blower becasue it really dirty and I was afraid it would be a big mistake. Any comments would be appreciated

when your drying towel gets wet (to the point it won't soak up water) just wring it out on the ground....

Don't use a towel to dry. Do the pooling method and dry the rest with an electric leaf blower.

Yeah, I was watching the Adams video and forgot about the pooling trick. I have to get a new leaf blower. The one I got is on it was out. danhr, I didn't realize you could ring out the towel and it would still suck up the water. Thats good to know.

I love the adams waffle weave drying towel. That works real good.

Half a bottle per wash is way too much. I think you're over doing it on the soap. IMO.

I use the blade to dry my cars for the past year or so, and have really come up with less scratches and swirles in the paint in the past. I am sure to wash the blade before i use it and wipe it off with a clean towel every so often. go through less towels and less time.

If you want to keep your paint perfect, (after you've made it so)...you only need to wash it after that between waxes. ...so washing properly should be the one thing you become proficient at. Seriously...anybody can correct paint using a PC and proper technique...the real challenge and skill in my view is KEEPING it that way...so you DON'T have to keep correcting it. You know you re doing it right when you are spending next to nothing on swirl remover and polishes...and MORE on washing supplies and wax.
