Hand Washing Your Car
Starting at the roof of the car, rinse downwards using a water hose or bucket of cold water. Rinse the accumulated dust and dirt from the car.
Read the instructions on the label of the car wash. Add the recommended amount of car wash into one of the buckets and then fill it with warm water.
Place the sponge/mitt into the bucket of water. Squeeze it in the soapy mixture to ensure it is completely wet, then begin cleaning the car from the roof downwards using a circular motion.
Add water into the second bucket.
Frequently rinse out the dirt from the sponge/mitt in the second bucket of warm water. This will help to keep the bucket with the car wash and your sponge/mitt free of dirt.
Save the wheels and tires for last. Use the second sponge/mitt for this. You can continue using the two different buckets. If the soapy water is not getting the wheels clean, you may have to use a stronger based cleaner or add more of the car cleaner for the wheels.
Consider using a slightly abrasive sponge to clean the wheels. They are more likely to have oil or grease deposits on them from contact with the road.
Dry the car using the microfiber drying towel. This is the most recommended material for cleaning your vehicle. Stay away from using bathing towels or beach towels when drying your car, they may be too rough for the paint and in turn, leave scratches.
Waxing Your Car
Find a shaded area for your car before applying the wax. This will stop the wax from drying to fast which can make it difficult to rub off.
Read the product instructions on how to apply the wax.
Place the recommended amount of wax on the foam applicator that came with the wax or onto the clean microfiber cloth.
Starting at the roof of the car, apply the thinnest coat of wax that you can. Use a circular motion to all of the bodywork.
Grab a clean microfiber towel. Buffer in circular motions to remove all of the wax.
