Washing My F80 M3 At Self Car Wash - How To Wash Your Car At Self Car Wash

washing your own car is so therapeutic

Absolutely agree 💯 💯

[@dawidekosrs896]

Riding to get my jeep cleaned right now:) love sundays

[@rugby86]

completely agree, and regardless of the age of the car. I myself have a BMW 1 series 2017, i tend to wash it every two weeks, weather dependent here in the U.K. Whenever i visit my mother and the weather is good, I wash her car which is a 2004 car. Also since there's sentimental connection, since as a family that car has been with us since, so having that connection does make it more satisfying when going through the wash process. Very therapeutic.

[@TheDailyDriven]

No problem! Glad I was able to help 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@CarlosHernandez-gc6no]

When washing at a self service bay, using a 2 bucket method. Do you use their low rinse soap to create “soap/foam” to create extra lubrication? Or do you just high pressure rinse the car and go in with your soap & mitt to clean the car? Thanks I’m advance!

[@maxmoky9287]

Love your passion for your M3. F80 will remain its legacy forever. I take care of mine like a baby now since I know I won't get the new generation.

[@TheDailyDriven]

Same here, this F80 is staying for the long haul. I appreciate it, owning an M3 has been my dream car since I was young so I'm definitely not taking it for granted.

[@wcmauldin81]

This is what I have been looking for. Cheap and functional ways to use the self serve bay.

[@TheDailyDriven]

Thanks for checking out the video. Definitely helps you wash you car properly instead if using the old brushes at the self service wash. Just gotta go during off peak hours so you're not holding up the bay.

[@freshpriince92]

Glad to see you’re on the brake buster and bead maker combo! Great video man, I’ve been wanting to try one of those wash bays for fun

Exactly it drives me crazy to see lol. Thanks for checking out the video 📹

[@DaarioNeharis]

Do you fill the bucket with water and then take it to the self wash bay? Does it fit in the trunk?

[@TheDailyDriven]

The best ideal way to do it would be to fill the water up beforehand so you're not wasting time throwing up the buckets. You would also want a wash bucket with a gamma seal. I believe there's some links in the description for all that

[@TheDailyDriven]

The wash bucket with the gamma seal, allows you to close the lid and prevent any spills

[@DaarioNeharis]

@@TheDailyDriven Got it.. Yeah you mentioned that part in the video. Filling the buckets over there will be waste of time and money.

Thanks bro you just gave me an idea on how to wash my C7 on one of these car wash joints

[@TheDailyDriven]

Awesome 💯🍻

[@laurence3796]

This may sound stupid, but in your opinion, are the pressure washers at self-service stations generally safe as far as their PSI? For example, do you think the PSI of pressure washers at self-service stations is generally safe to use?

[@TheDailyDriven]

Not as stupid question at all. The pressure from those machine should be fine as long as you keep it a safe distance away from the paint. There's no reason to put the pressure washer wand up close to the paint.

[@criticalambush472]

So how do you avoid your rotors building up that rust on them after wash?

[@TheDailyDriven]

Good question, a lot of that rust will come naturally. There are some products that help with that such as the wheel cleaner I use (Brake buster) it has rust inhibitors. There also another product that treats that which is called Hydes Serum Rust Stopper. That I Have not tired yet. Another way is to drive it down the block and ease in on the brakes. Here's a video about Hydes Serum kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2m4p4x_j81nhpI

No risk as long as it safe for your wheels /rotors.

Damm i got my new 3 series last week, your video helped me to figure out how to wash it properly. Thanks a lot :) and love your M3

[@TheDailyDriven]

No problem! Just try to go when it's not peak time. Some people may get mad since this process takes a little longer. I have a few other videos on the channel on how to wash the car in different methods.

[@takeoffbands1255]

How do you wash and clean the mits brushes towels and all that

[@TheDailyDriven]

After my wash I load all my towels and wash mitts into the washer and dryer and use microfiber detergent.

[@takeoffbands1255]

@@TheDailyDriven do you use cold or hot water or does it not matter

[@You-sw7tm]

@@takeoffbands1255 Hot water is bad for microfiber. I'd you like to know how to properly wash microfiber towels and mitts, I suggest watching this video --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpDVqpl9odB4b6s

[@TheDailyDriven]

Agree, either warm or cold water. The hot water could melt the fibers that cause it to be less effective or could cause marring.

[@oaksmadoaks]

Hey man, got a question, so when (in what phase) do you use Sonax and when Bead Maker?

[@TheDailyDriven]

The Sonax Spray and Seal would be used after you washed the car. The product is water activated so you would need the car to be wet. All you need to do is spray it onto the car liberally and then hose it off. I would not use beadmaker during this wash but the next wash since you already put on the Spray and Seal. The Spray and seal is something I would use every 3 months or so if you want.

[@NikosAnimals]

so you only use the rinse??? What are the eight other things on that dial, so confused

[@TheDailyDriven]

Most of the other options on the dials are high PH level chemicals that I personally wouldn't use. If you're really particular about you car, you would use the wash bay solely for the water.

[@shaoqinglihu696]

May I ask how much you spent in total in this wash? 🙏🏼

[@TheDailyDriven]

Probably less than 8$

[@shaoqinglihu696]

@ thank you ☺️

[@Itspiyerr]

Do you recommend using a foam brush? Or the soap from the carwash?

[@TheDailyDriven]

I honestly wouldn't recommend using them. The soap that is provided has a high PH level that will in time take away from any wax or sealant on your vehicle. The foam brush is abrasive and just filled with dirt. Most of the dirt never gets cleaned out and that will definitely scratch your paint. A way to think about it is, imagine using a community tooth brush. Lol.

[@Itspiyerr]

@@TheDailyDriven that makes perfect sense lmao, thankyou for the reply!

[@TheDailyDriven]

No problem 🤘

[@ryleedenney7872]

I love seeing that I’m not the only one that is extremely particular about how my car looks the smallest amount of dirt drives me insane

[@victorreza5613]

Just came across your video and you got me hooked lol. How do you deal with removing the bugs that are on the windshield and the front bumper? Do you use any type of spray for it?

[@TheDailyDriven]

Thanks Victor 🙏🏻. Appreciate the solid feedback. Removing the bugs from the front windshield and front bumper can sometimes be a pain if you leave it on there for a bit. I generally use detail spray to remove it off. Luckily my frontend has paint protection film which makes it easier to take off.

[@Noez90]

Literally just came back from the self serve myself to watching a person do that on KZbin lol

[@TheDailyDriven]

Haha niceee. I definitely need to update some of the methods I'm a future video. Thank you for watching this video.

[@corpuzone]

I would totally go after hours like you did and bring my own bucket and sponge. Those sponges are cheap nowadays so I could just throw it out till next time. I got a black car so left to right wiping is better to avoid swirl marks.

[@TheDailyDriven]

That's the way to do it so you're not rushed and can be thorough. Black cars, you definitely have to be careful to minimize the swirls for sure. Thanks for checking out the video 🤘🏻

[@corpuzone]

@@TheDailyDriven no problem! 1st and last time I’m owning black car though. They’re nice when super clean but one drop of sprinklers or rain ruins everything lol!!

[@blevin569]

Looks great. How safe would you say a one bucket wash is vs 2? I only have 1 and think this is my best shot (apartment complex). I just want to avoid swirls if I can.

[@TheDailyDriven]

To be honest, you'll never be able to avoid swirls but taking the proper wash methods will help on minimizing new swirls. One bucket is ok but having the two bucket method is extremely beneficial. Since you live in a apartment complex, check out Optimum No Rise. Good waterless wash you can use when the car isnt' too dirty.

[@Noooname2024]

Buy about 5-7 multi wash mitt. One bucket with shampoo. U can use both side of wash mitts... Easy and u never put back dirty mitt into bucket. Trust me.

[@uhdobo7]

@@Ninowitdavibez Use one bucket with soap solution for washing, then use the second bucket with water and a grit guard to rinse and scrub dirt/debris off the wash mitt after you scrub each panel of the car. This avoids rubbing the dirt you just washed off into the next section
