Everything You Need to Carry Out a General Wash on Your car.
Most pressure washers these days come with Foam cannons however they tend to be rubbish however the New Ava Easy P57 comes with a premium Cannon. Grit guards will reduce the risk of dirt getting caught on your wash mitt but there still is a small risk of scratches so don't presume its 100% completely safe. I always start with either engine bay or the wheels. Once I finish the wheels I move on to the door Shuts (jambs) and then clean the petrol cap. Only then do I move on to the pre wash of the bodywork.
In most cases you will just use a citrus pre wash around the lower third of the car. Some people use traffic film removers which can be more aggressive so that comes down to your own preference if you decide to use it. (it is cheaper than citrus though) You can either rinse off or apply a layer of Snow foam on top to reactivate it.
once dwelled rinse off the foam and begin the contact wash. Alternatively you can fill up the foam cannon with a car shampoo and cover the bodywork to add lubrication to surface of the car.

I washed my wife’s car yesterday, I used a cheapo foam to clean wheels/tyres with a small brush, then snow foamed the bodywork with Bilt Hamber AutoFoam, about 200/300mm product made up to 1L in my MJJC. After that I did something I’d never done before which was, as I had lots of foam left in my cannon I snow foamed it again and then washed it with my mitt. I rinsed off again and it looked great, plus, I only used 1 bucket with grit guard to swill the mitt.
As it was quite sunny, I managed to get it done quicker, didn’t use any shampoo and didn’t use any hot water in my 2nd bucket.
I’m about to order a citrus cleaner for my pre-wash to go forward, hopefully less scrubbing of the wheels which is my most hated job to do, but what I like most, clean alloys and dressed tyres………….
First class advice Dave it's so easy for beginners to get carried away.
Hopefully if they follow your advice they will get better results everytime, and enjoy cleaning there car's.
Thanks Nigel
Thank you for the video Dave. As you rightly said being organised is so important, especially in the warmer weather.
Thanks Karl 🙂
I did my black Kia in the sun yesterday. Remembering what you taught me. One panel at a time then rinse off and move on to the next one. It didn't look to bad when it was finished. Woke up this morning to a light shower obviously with sand in it. Looks like it did before.(Wasn't worth all the agro from your mother) . Dad 🤦😂🤣
😂 let's get the car in the studio Dad
Will do.👍
Washing the car in the sun, on a hot day, is one hell of a job, if the water supply is hard water.
@@nasdoc1 mine is, Koch Chemie FSE is my saviour 😂
Once again another fantastic and informative video Dave
Cheers Mark
Another great video Dave, as always get the basics done properly and the rest follows
Thanks Andy
I am starting stationary car wash/detailing studio after wef weeks. You really do help me a lot :)
Well done ✅
Man's on fire, dropping video after video. 🎉
I didn't want to make a big thing of this one but my next video is going to be very hands on 🙌
Loved your reference tonthe keyboard warriors, and low and behold, no one has moaned, your power of persuasion is unrivaled 😂. I also agree about the reference to products harmong cars, because I'd like to think that peope who are watching this type of content, love their cars and they'll be protected. All the best.
Thanks Lee :)
Another great informative vid 👍 look forward to the next one.
Thanks Paul 😀
Another great video Dave, I always do the wheels first, then the petrol cap and then under the bonnet, and after that the pre wash, I think I've been watching these channels for too long 😁😁😁
Lol I got another 10 years of this yet
Perfect, I'll stay tuned so 👍👍😁😁
@@epicautomotivedetailing Im wondering , what's the Ph level of that pre-wash? Thank you
😂 I liked the slide about the 100 bucket method. Keep injecting fun into your videos man…it’s great!
Always worth a watch well done mate
Thanks Steve 😀
Nice. Really nice, you've nailed it here.
Cheers Mate. 😀
Nice video. I bought the pH neutral snow foam liquid, next time I will purchase the alkaline version, lesson learned! cheers
Nothing wrong with ph neutral but for me I just don't get it unless a car is "super special" for your everyday cars Alkaline snow foam like "epic snow foam 😉" just gets the job done
@@epicautomotivedetailing I would love to order a few bottles but I am living in Germany so it won't make much sense for me due to Customs fee and shipping costs.. pity!
just another great video not only for beginners - ta for that, mate
Thank you Paul
Hello Dave,another great video, interesting to know about these steps before washing the car.
Thanks Steven 🙏🙂
Sound advice as always Dave
Thanks Alistair 🙂
Exactly what I needed great video
Cheers Ashley
Very informative video Dave! well done and keep them coming mate 🔥
💯 great video you really know your stuff.
Thank you 😀
Until last week I had an Alfa 159 ti sportwagon in Russo red (imho the best colour) which used to look absolutely fantastic once I followed a lot of your tips, but lately it was doing its best to drain my wallet, so I sold it on. My replacement car is something totally different, a 2010 Honda CR-Z with a full service history, less than 59,000 miles and in a pearlescent white metallic paint which is in very good condition for its age. I am going to spend some money getting it professionally detailed at a firm local to me, as they are doing a good deal for a machine polish and a ceramic coating. The car last had the full Autoglym LifeShine deal (interior, exterior and glass) back in 2019. I have no idea if that was any good or not, but I think it's time to get it done again.
Ceramic coatings have come a long way. Synergy from infinitywax or g techniq ceramic coatings are very popular with good reason. I love white cars once they are clean. I'm looking at a white Audi TT at moment. Deciding if I should get it
@@epicautomotivedetailing That's the catch with white cars - you have to keep them clean. A lot less hassle than black cars though! I had an og Saab 9-5 Aero back in the day , followed by a Mk 8 Civic, both of them black. Did my head in keeping those buggers presentable. Black shows up every defect in the paint, whereas white is a lot more forgiving.
@Arti 159 totally agree, I had a black Polo GTi lady year, that's when I started getting into the cleaning and the thing was dirty the minute I turned my back 😂
Morning Dave …. Good video there just to keep us in check with the weather as it changes ……. How’s the Detailing bay going for you ?……. It’s looking Goooooooode
That's a really great and to the point video. Please make more like it for the other stages. As for PH neutral snowfoams, IMHO they are a waste of time. Use an alkaline one every time.
Thank you yes 100% making more hands on content
Do you have a video on how to use a pressure washer on your car without damaging it? For example which nozzle to use etc? I've recently bought a Mac allister pressure washer and have yet to use it on my car dude to confidence 😅
new video coming soon on this
Really helpful video, thank you - I’ve just got an AVA P50 and I’m looking for a really long reinforced hose to replace the standard 6m. Not sure if the fittings are the same as what you run but can I ask what you use? Sorry if it’s already been asked.. Cheers
Hi Dave thanks for every video you put out is so helpful !! BUT I AM IN NEED OF YOU HELP !!! On HOW TO MAKE UP A CAR INTERIOR DEEP CLEANER I ALL READY HAVE THE HAND HEAND HELD TOOL WITH TRIGER FOR WATER SPRAY WHERE TO GET STAINLESS STEEL 1/4 “ HOSE AND FITTINGS AND QUICK DISCONNECT SUITABLE FOR WATER ! I ALL READY HAVE A 30L WET & DRY VAC WITH EXTRA BOOST SUCTION !! CHEERS BRIAN
What is the nest advice/tips on cleaning your engine bay?? I drive A6 3L Quattro and im always afraid to get water in the wrong areas under the bonnet 😢 any help or advice much appreciated 👍 keep up the great work with the content 👏
Do you jet wash the pre wash off then put the snow foam on and then jetwash the snow foam off ?
Great video
I would be using hot / warm water in my pressure washer during fall and winter .
Hi Dave, One small doubt regarding pre wash chemicals. Can i mix an APC (GreenStar) with foam shampoo to get the same result was what you are getting with the citrus one? or is it ok spray the APC in the same dilution ration onto the panel and then cover it with snow foam ??? Like, majot doubt is, shall i replace the citrus pre wash with APC ?
I was taking notes only to realize i do things exactly the order you do 🤣🤣
Great video thank you. Can you use the alkaline snow foam on a matte finished car?
I use my epic Snow Foam on Matte and its fine 🙌
@@epicautomotivedetailing thanks mate
Hi, I’m tossing between Ryobi 1800W 2030psi, with Karcher K3 Power Control High Pressure with Home Kit. Price difference is negligible. If you were me, which one would you go for?
Check out my playlist. I have loads of pressure washers on the channel ✅
Dave, I love your videos! I have a question for you. You mention cleaning the petrol cap. I drive an EV, while the charge port area does not get a mucky as petrol filler cap, dirt does accumulate there. What is your advice for cleaning it? I feel using a jet wash would be a bad idea as there is an open power connector right there without a cover. I would love to know your thoughts.
very good question. My best advice is to get the cotton swaps out and being very careful. Definitely deserves a video
@@epicautomotivedetailing looking forward to it! If you need a car to demo, I am happy to provide one🤣
Would alkaline snowfoam harm ceramic brakes ?
😊Hello fellow detailers. I'm thinking of trying 'Autoglym Advance FTR' apparently it cleans and glosses in one. Has anyone used it?
😂😂😂 the 100 bucket method ahh yes 🤣
Its a well known method on detailing Central 😂
I spray one wheel and a panel. Clean a wheel and rinse that and the panel. In winter anyway. Any thoughts about this approach in summer?
For business sometimes you have to change things up on the day. I remember I washed a rolls Royce (uploaded it to RUclips) it was the hottest day of the year, the car had black paint and the heat was unbearable but we pulled it off
And then there’s me polishing a car at like 10 pm on a windy evening with my cordless polisher on the side of the street with people lookin like i’m absolutely insane
lol
I can't understand the rinse debate either.
I've rinsed top to bottom, and bottom to top, and there's absolutely no difference in the end results.
Yep 100% it's almost like they are just looking for an argument all the time
@@epicautomotivedetailing something I do on hot days, if there's no shade available, I will spray the vehicle first to cool the panels down, before applying any prewash, or snowfaom.
This helps increase dwell time, but still have to be careful it doesn't dry on the vehicle.
How do you get the foam that thick? I have a p70 smart with the top Ava foam lance and it still isn’t foamy just sudsy water. Could it be hard water and also if it sits mixed together for 20 mins can it weaken the foam because it’s hard?
Epic Automotive Snow Foam. It's a powerhouse 💥
@@epicautomotivedetailing I’m sold.. cheers mate I’ll check it out
is there anywhere you haven't installed those left over floor tiles lol
I've got them around the sink in the bog as well 😂
Oh shit. I cleared the floor area of my shed on Saturday. Now you've got me worried. Dave's Dad 😂🤣🍺
why "citrus" prewash... i see a few people using it, but nobody explains why... why not just use TFR
I am looking to buy a new pressure washer and snow gun what would you recommend?
Depends on budget and requirements my friend. So many options
@@epicautomotivedetailing For cleaning my van and jet ski budget around £250
@@epicautomotivedetailing what about the ava easy p40?
@@marinejunkies9625 yes it's practically the same machine apart from glow rate and bar pressure. All the same great accessories included
@Epic Automotive Detailing is the enough bar for car cleaning?
Spray the citrus pre wash on a dry or wet (water rinsed with pressure washer/hose) car please? You didn’t specify this.
Depends on scenarios mate. If the car is heavily caked in mud then you will need to loosen up some dirt first however for best results on moderate dirt apply to dry surface
One bucket , 6 clothes , one for each panel , quick snow foam before and done in 30 minutes .
Easier and faster to earn more money !!!😀😀
Like your thinking. Definitely would like to study that more for a video
You've been watching AMMO NYC 😂
And definitely been watching Brian from Apex 👍👍
Agreed…..one wash bucket and multiple mitts - the safest method IMHO. Only clean mitts ever go into the wash bucket
I’d rather have car shampoo dry on my car than water.
