Merry Christmas Evan! I will definitely try this method come spring. Going to be getting the Active2.0 soon and some more products from the Status Store. I’m also looking forward to the updated full wash video

[@eliasaguilar8267]

Interesting concept. Def worth testing!!!

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Give it a try. Every time you touch the car your using a clean fresh towel side. Maximum efficiency and safest method in my opinion!

[@eliasaguilar8267]

Have you tested gyeon syncro evo?

[@STATUSDETAIL]

@@eliasaguilar8267 yep! I talk about it in the mohs review. The back half of car has syncro

[@eliasaguilar8267]

@@STATUSDETAIL awesome! I am going to go watch the MOHS review now lol

[@Tranquility_Auto_Detailing]

I came to this realization about two months ago. I use the Autofiber Double Flip wash towels. They’re nice and plush but have a pocket that allows you to flip it inside out giving you four sides for washing. A three pack gives me more than enough sides for your typical vehicle. And this method gives me one less bucket to have to move around as I work my way around the car. It’s a win for me and the customer.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Awesome. This sounds very similar to the video

[@hashaampiracha3712]

I use this method for any gloss black ceramic coated vihcles I’ve done or if it has extrramly soft paint. I will say that it is way more important to have a good pre rise to knock off 80-90% of the grime before doing this process.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Agreed! I already filmed the follow up more in depth video and it covers multiple steps you can do before contact on paint.

[@winstonlala8855]

Merry Christmas! I have been using this 1 bucket/multiple mf method for the longest and I must say this works much better and truly eliminates the risk of putting a contaminated washing medium back on the paint. imo, this is the best method. Great video!

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Thanks for watching and merry Christmas! Happy new year fast approaching! Agreeded. I'm about to wash a really dirty cayanne and this method will definitely reduce the risk of swirls. The wash pad would be trashed 5 seconds In.

[@curtr.5083]

This is probably the most efficient way I have seen this method used, tons of sides to use. I switched from one mitt/two bucket washes to one bucket multi-mitt washes about a year ago using 8-10 rag co chenille mitts w/ flipping sides. I have noticed about 75-90% less hazing; it becomes really apparent after several washes and the paint still looks glassy. This is also just washing on a sealed car, not coated. My experience has backed up your conclusions here, great video I think you are onto something.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Agreed 👍👍 I have really noticed a difference with how the microfiber is unclogging ceramic coatings too. There is more like grime and grease cutting going on with microfiber vs traditional wash pads. Yet it's ironically less "abrasive" or friction inducing with the contamination in car and prevents swirls.

[@zacjones89]

@@STATUSDETAIL Wow great info there. Another reason to switch to using towels!

[@STATUSDETAIL]

@@zacjones89 🙂👍👍

[@coreygallon]

Love, love, love your videos, mate! I admire your thoughtful attention to detail as you wash our lovely cars! This particular approach contains contradictions to your typical attention to detail. Power washing dirty microfiber towels, to clean them, on the hood of the car … the concept is sound, but surely this is better done on another flat surface to avoid the dirty towel contact with the car that you’ve worked so hard to minimize, nay?

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Thanks for watching! That's a good point. I don't believe any swirls are happening with it flat. The motion would cause the issue But you may be on to something. So the safest bet might be rinsing it on a windshield. This probably goes without saying but obviously you rinse the front of the car up after that rinse off the towel.

[@sgt.pepper4274]

My vehicle is currently at the detailer. I had the ceramic coating applied today, along with minor paint correction. Waiting 2 days before I pick it up and then 2 weeks to cure before doing any maintenance on the finish/wheels/glass. It's a brand new vehicle that I drove off the showroom floor last week. I was going to use the 2 mitt/2 bucket system, but the idea of using a 1 microfiber cloth and getting 8 fresh quarters to wash the vehicle is simple genius. lol Subscribed.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Glad you found the channel! I love this wash method and it works really well on a ceramic coated car 👍👍

[@jrphoto8179]

Merry Christmas man this is a idea I haven’t thought 💭 of to use my eagle edge less towels instead of the expensive wash mitts I buy from microfiber madness! Because each wash mitt cost 26.00 vs the towels 🙌 awesome video

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Thanks! Give it a go! Like I mentioned just toss your wash pads in too. No need to not use them. Just use each side once 👍

[@aaronlabeau]

Always love your content. I was curious for your water do you mix your own resin like in a CR spotless system or do you have a tank delivery service? For a hobbiest like me mixing my own resin probably makes more sense from a cost perspective. Maybe it would be interesting enough for a future video on your water filtering, pressure washer and hose attachments. I have a lot of sun to contend with on my south facing garage so it means I'm either washing cars very early or very late in the day. Thank you for this content and effort!

[@STATUSDETAIL]

That's a good idea I should try and show that in my future videos. I am interesting pressure washer setup. But besides that's all pretty normal I use normal water from the city of Chicago. Basically lake Michigan water. By the time he gets to me because I'm pretty far in the city the water is actually pretty clean. I just washing the shade or in the winter time it's pretty easy going because it's so cold nothing's going to water spot

[@zacjones89]

This is a great approach. I usually wash two cars at a time in my driveway, and I like using 8 of the Microfiber Mitts on each car. I prefer to run the the mitts through the washing machine by themselves, so if anything I feel better about running a decent sized washer load at the end of the day. I think once the Microfiber Mitts start falling apart I might switch to using the Autofiber flip towels -- they're easier to hold onto than a standard folded towel, and a little easier to manage flipping sides and remembering what sides you've used,, plus you get (4) 8x8 surfaces with each towel. Love your channel. STEK review and pros and cons to PPF were great videos too. Thanks!!!

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Thanks for watching and commenting! Ppf can be great but I believe it's sold in a weird way by many as this magic product. So I hope to change the way people look at it so they fully understand what they are buying. Stek makes a great product 👍👍

[@ddautodetailing]

Definitely a good concept! I've been wanting to try this method out. I think it could be a time saver as well. What GSM microfiber towels do you think would be best to use?

[@STATUSDETAIL]

I'm using 500 gsm towels from my website. But the 1100 gsm may be better.... The white ones I sell

[@DanAdams]

I’ve been using this method for quite a while. I use Optimum No Rinse and have used this method since using it, only thing I add is another MF towel that is wrung out pretty well and use it as kind of a pre-drying towel with a drying agent, then fully dry with my drying towel.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

A lot of people like this method you mentioned 👍👍

[@pouryajannesari1204]

So i just wrapped my car, do you have a video on how you should wash and what products to use when washing a wrapped car? thanks.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Vinyl or ppf? Either way it's this multiple towel method tho. Vinyl will scratch very easily tho.

[@bigmario7065]

Merry Christmas!! Quick question, is Koch chemie green star good to use for all interior cleaning? Like for extracting too. I’m debating between polstar and greenstar. Or any other recommendations. Thanks!! Awesome videos 👍 💯

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Merry Christmas! I have not actually used those yet but have been curious to try. As far as leather cleaning and dusting and alcantara I'd stick to gyeon line. Koch might have some good fabric cleaning solutions. Like carpets

[@awpdevil]

Green star is just basically an APC, so it's usable at a higher dilution ratio for interiors. Pol star is a ph neutral interior cleaner that is also dilutable, and it can be used on any surface of the interior. I've seen detailers use it for carpets and fabric seats with an extractor as well. I doubt it's anything huge, but it also claims to have some form of protection for textiles. Personally, I use Shine Supply's leather and interior cleaner for everything but fabrics and shiny interior parts, because it has cleaners and protectants, then use their upholstery stuff for fabrics. For nav screens and shiny parts, their Cruise matte interior detailer is my go to.

[@talkingwithcars]

Have you ever used a no rinse along with your soap to introduce a higher level of lubricity or is that not really necessary? I tried it once and I was amazed with how slick the wash process was. (combo of CarPro Reset and ONR)

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Not necessary if your foaming with proper thick foam. And doing wash process correctly. I do not like onr

[@heysatan8]

If you're going through all this trouble to avoid scratching the paint, does it not worry you using the hood as a washboard to pressure wash dirty rags? Haha. I'm sure it's fine since they've been sitting on soap, but the thought still crossed my mind. :p Great videos by the way, you're awesome. Especially how you answer so many questions in the comments. Keep up the good work.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Thanks! Any dirt coming off the wash pad or towel will be very fine and loose. That's why you do this before the final rinse. You can do it on a grit gaurd but it's very likely you blow it off the grit gaurd onto ground and then in my opinion it's game over and you really can't use that ever again. That's how I do it. But everyone watching can rinse out the water however they feel most comfortable. I get lots of comments on this lol

[@Naniners]

What is the preferred way, PPF or ceramic coating? I like ceramic as it repels water more and make it easier to clean. In your opinion, whats the best way to protect the car?

[@STATUSDETAIL]

If the budget allows them do both and make sure your getting a good PPF installer especially! A full front ppf with ceramic over everything is great value on cars that are loved. Ceramic will keep everything cleaner longer and easy to clean. PPF will resist swirls a lot and offer rock chip prevention but no magic bullet either way. Really bad bird poo in sun can screw up anything. Bad hard water too. Huge rocks destroy everything. So we can add protection and hope we avoid the nasty stuff in the world

[@Naniners]

Do you ship product in canada?

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Not currently. :(

[@Sitgod]

gyeon bathe if quite expensive If i’m doing loads of cars.. Is it ok to use just a normal snow foam instead? like polar blast

[@STATUSDETAIL]

I'm unfamiliar with polar blast. I have been testing a Maguires soap from the professional line that has a really aggressive price. I think I might put it in the store but I'm on the fence. I think it's a potentially a great product for detail shops. Bathe reset is much better in my opinion. But this soap isn't bad. Just gets the job done. I don't remember the name of top of my head. It's blue tho.

[@fat_bastard]

Looks like a nice way to wash. However, I would maybe caution against rinsing the towels against the car paint. For example, if there are small hard particles, etc. on the other side of the microfiber towel, you are now forcing them against the hood even though you are cleaning the other side of the towel. Might be a very low risk but something to keep in mind.

[@STATUSDETAIL]

I now rinse on windshield 👍

[@trifin5772]

I must say watching you rise those towels on the bonnet of that car made me wince! I am sure you know what you are doing but the windscreen will be less painful to watch! 😂 thanks for all the content - learned a lot.

[@s2kologist]

I woul.rinse he towel on a clean table and not use the car to clean the dirty towels. Even if you use the windshield, you're still spraying the dirt onto the car you just washed.

[@chrisginoc]

I've tried the micro fiber towel method but I have noticed the towels kind of slide around and sometimes unravel in the soap. I have an suv that is ceramic coated and regularly use Adam's mega foam. Do you think I should use a higher GSM towel or is it the foam?

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Without knowing we're kind of tells you're using it might be difficult for me to guide you on this comment. You want the towel to kinda glide because the foam is the lubrication and stops swirls. As long as your making contact with paint and not literally floating on soap then you cleaning the surface. High gsm is ideal. I use the green 1100gsm towel on statusdetailstore.com

[@chrisginoc]

@@STATUSDETAIL I have been using low GSM, but I have a few with high GSM. I will start using those moving forward. Thanks.

[@Endorion_YTC]

Can I use the Costco Yellow Microfiber Towels to do this method to wash the car paint? Are they good enough and safe enough on the paint? (Kirkland Signature Ultra Plush Microfiber Towel, Yellow, 16 in x 16 in, 36-count)

[@STATUSDETAIL]

Yes you definitely can. The newest version actually comes with no tag attached which is really nice. What you do need to be careful of is the stitching on the side. So fold it into fourths and do your best to tuck the stitching up so you essentially make it edgeless. Or just push in One direction with your edgeless side. More importantly remember that the reverse side of that towel is not the same GSM. It's much much less plush. So you're only going to get four sides instead of eight. Meaning you can't flip it inside out. They're so inexpensive that this is not a problem just be aware that you should not be using that reverse side on the paint in my opinion. On a sidebar the reverse side does a decent job on glass! I obviously recommend the towels on my website as those are 500 GSM and the other ones I sell are $1,100 plus GSM. Kirkland towels are around 300 for reference. I'd always rather have a more plush towel when doing a contact wash. That was a great question thank you!

[@Endorion_YTC]

@@STATUSDETAIL Ohhh this perfectly answers my question thanks! I’ll purchase those towels then just to be on the safe side! And yes your right the towels doesn’t have the same plush side on the back which makes tons of sense.

Correct. The towels start In a clean bucket and never go back In. They go to a separate bucket after being used and are not used again.

[@IdkWhtYouDid]

You don’t use any microfibre detergents or anything? Just the rinse method and reuse ?

[@STATUSDETAIL]

The rinse is usually enough. But if the car was really dirty or you used a tar remover or iron remover for example you would still rinse but can definitely wash in washing machine with detergents. Those do a great job cleaning polish residue and interior towels During the wash we basically soak the towels in soap. So the rinse should blow everything out. Pressure washing is more hardcore than tumbling around I'm a washer in my mind.
