Title: Power washing and Wax
Post by: MK3GTI_16Valve on 04 August 2009, 11:52

Morning all

This might be a stupid question but would regular power washing degrade the wax finish on our cars? Car needs a quick clean, just wondering If im better off with the 2bm and hose or just use the power washer (at a sensible distance) to get the heaviest of the dirt off the car

Cheers
Brian

pressure washer will be fine as long as you have enough layers of wax on... your wax will degrade quicker if there is more dirt on it... so using 2bm on heavy contamination will cause more damage to your wax layer

try a snow foam first to loosen the dirt and then rinse with pressure washer and then 2bm
