Completing a safe wash/maintenance wash/car clean on a Skoda Octavia vRS
Car Cleaning Process and products used:
Wheels and Wheel Arches
Products: Bilt Hamber Auto Wheels, Car Chem 1900:1 Shampoo
Process:
*Spray product onto all 4 dry wheels and start a 5 minute timer (4 minutes on hotter days) after the first wheel is covered.
*After 5 minutes rinse all 4 wheels to remove as much dirt as possible.
*Spray product a 2nd time on the first wheel and agitate with a soft wheel brush on the front facings/side of the spokes
*Using longer wheel brushes and a wash mitt from a bucket of shampoo clean the back of the wheels between the front spokes ensuring as much dirt is removed as possible along with wiping the tyres over.
*Wipe over wheel arches using a longer brush
*Rinse wheels and wheel arches
Bodywork Washing:
Products: ValetPro Citrus Pre Wash (Diluted to 1:8) (Pre-wash), Car Chem Original Snow Foam (Pre-wash), Car Chem 1900:1 Shampoo (Contact wash), Klin Korea Medium Towel (Drying)
Process:
*Spray the citrus pre-cleaner onto all parts of the vehicle paying particular attention to the dirtiest areas like wheel arches, lower body panels, bird poo, etc and leave to dwell for 2-3 minutes
*Spray snow foam onto the vehicle and over the citrus pre wash ensuring all areas are covered including the lower parts of the cars sills, the wheel arches, the wheels, any grills and inside the petrol filler area
*Wait till the snow foam dwells for the required time or till the snow foam visibly starts to dry
*Thoroughly rinse the car in all possible areas washing away the snow foam and as much dirt as possible at the same time
*Apply a second layer of snow foam to the vehicle
*Agitate all areas which a wash mitt will find hard to access with a soft brush such as under door handles, between bodywork panels, around headlights, inside grill areas, the petrol filler area, around windscreen rubbers, the scuttle panel under the front wipers and the window seals on each side
*Throughly rinse the car removing all snow foam
*Using the snow foam gun spray the shampoo over the vehicle as you would a snow foam. This will not be a thick foam, but it will help with spreading shampoo onto the vehicles bodywork for the contact wash
*Using a wash mitt wiper each panel with a side to side motion either rinsing the mitt after wash panel with a hose or jet wash or using the two bucket method of one rinse bucket and one soap bucket. Start from the roof and contact wash the roof, the bonnet, the tailgate and move down the rest of the car in sections with leaving the lower sill areas to very last as this is potentially where the most dirt would be
*Rinse the shampoo from the vehicle ensuring all areas are covered including under the sills and wheel arches
*Dry the vehicle using a micro fibre towel
*Dry the wheels and tyres using a micro fibre towel
