    I use a two bucket method, but I use four mitts. Two for upper portion of car and two for lower section. I start with the first mitt washing and about half way thru I flip the mitt over and wash the second half. Then go to bucket and drop off mitt and grab second one and repeat on second side. This way I always have a clean mitt.

    Well if it's just a pretty clean car as the one he has waaaaay to many towels used...First off skip the glass...u can use paper towels and Windex or whatever for the glass.do whole side of car rt wheel qtr panel and door with one section of towel.Second door and back wheel qtr panel with second section of towel.then move to other side do the same.Thats one side of towel.Leave the bottom of each side of vehicles .Flip to other side...one section for hood...another section for trunk.Top of roof...which should be first section by the way.then I use last section of second side for front grill.Then I use a second towel to do bottom sections of whole car.Badda boom badda bang.I repeat this is only for a pretty clean car as in video though.

    I’ve always done the two bucket wash but like you said it takes so long to scrub the mitt on the grit guards between both buckets before making contact again. Definitely switching to one bucket and ordering more mitts to make washing faster and easier. Do recommend still getting two buckets so you can toss the used ones in the other bucket then you can carry them to your washer to wash them when you’re done

  • @paulgyro

    The one bucket method also works great for rinseless washes too. Note instead of having to flip to all eight sides of the towel Mike Phillips recommends cutting the towels so you have just two sides to worry about.

    If your worried about a dirty rinse bucket or a dirty mitt you completely missed the importance of a pre wash stage which effectively gets 90 percent of the dirt off the vehicle prior to contact wash. Id be more worried about rubbing dirt around the car before you dunk that mitt instead recontamination from the rinse bucket.@@439530

    Stepped away from the 2 bucket con 12 months ago. A good pressure wash and regular cleaning, and a good pre rinse and foaming is the answer. Chamois can cause swirls etc as well. Blow drying is a huge change, especially when your car is ceramic coated.

    This is the exact method I’ve been using for years. First introduce by Garry Dean. It’s not only safer but actually *faster* than having to rinse mitts. And yes, using the chenille wash mitts is MUCH easier and easier to remember to use than MF towels. I actually avg about 8 Wash Mitts (front and back) for an entire car. Only other thing I would add is 1) foam prewash, 2) Rinse, 3) Foam again for lubrication 4) do NOT rise, but instead, start your hand wash mitts with one bucket method above. Lastly, I would recommend, keep track of which mitts hits the dirtier parts of your car (lower fenders, lower doors, bumpers) bc those mitts should be hand rinse or pressure rinsed before throwing in washer with your other mitts.

Then i use 1 mitt for the top,1 for the back, 1 for the hood, 1 for the glass around, 1 for the right, 1 for the left side, and 1 for below the lower body crease. Total of 7 mitts. I feel like this is enough. They never go back in either and when i rinse them out there usually isn’t much filth.

    I think people get carried away with buying expensive mitts. You have so much soap and water involved that the minor differences in materials are flattened out in my opinion. Also, sometimes the mitt just needs to be tossed entirely (for example, if it falls into sand/dirt) and you'll be more likely to toss an 8 dollar mitt away than a 30 dollar mitt. Personally, money goes further with towels and product. For the mutli-mitt wash with a single bucket, I usually go cheap.

I don't use the mitts, but I use the DIY Detail legacy sponge or the Big Black sponge by The Rag Company, and they do a great job on my Tesla. Those sponges are the ones recommended for rinseless washing. No swirls or scratches on the paintwork, but then I ceramic-coated the paintwork and PP f'ed the front end as soon as I bought the car.

    you should foam the car dry then rinse off. just blasting it with water first pushes the dirt around potentially scratching. foaming 1st will louden the dort and drag it down and cpr9vide a much more effective rinse which then makes the one bucket method even better. I sometimes do a no bucket method with a coyote mitts and pressure wash off the mitt wring out and resoak for c the next panel. hey as long as you're being safe and using precautions do whatever way you like

    I think this begs for a comparison between this method and the standard one. And I might add significantly its critical that the surface has been maintained and is in a hardened condition that will shed water. Most people are oblivious to this. Its becoming a lot more popular with ceramic extenders. I used bead it up. But there are others that are plenty good. And I might add dont wait until the car is filthy. A regular washing is mandatory. I do it every three weeks or so because I just dont drive that much any more now that I am retired. Soo. If you wash regularly, use a ceramic extender. do a good prewash and apply a good coating of high quality soap with a sprayer and then use the stardard two bucket system, I really dont think you are going to see a difference. I also use a high quality pro air blower and this leaves an absolute mirror finish if there was one before. Just my two cents.

    I've used the method with the flat microfibre towel, and I don't recommend it. I definitely noticed scratch marks appear. And my car isn't even that dirty most weeks when I wash it. Feels a million times safer with the noodle mitt. The only downside is it does cost to buy this many good ones.

    The longer strands of microfiber mitts or pads seem to catch and hide dirt better than high gsm towels.

    Thanks for this video. I just tried and already love this wash method. It saved me considerable time not having to rinse out mitts wondering if they really are contaminant free. I have a mix of gyeon smoothie mitts and the same chemical guys chenille mitts you use. Curious about the possible negatives of using the gyeon smoothie microfiber mitts?

    Nice video. I have been going to 1 bucket late summer last year and into winter where I go to the Coin Wash bay place. Snow Foam with my IK e Foam Pro 12 and rinse then those Chemical Guys Chenille Pads (I got 3 of them) after another foam if I can. Chennille pads or mitts are best for washing a body on the car. I found on my first try of edgeless microfiber towels it never had the sudsy feel on the bodywork and they get caught on the grille and emblems kinda stuff on the car and would drop one once in a while.

    The way the towel bunches up is annoying in practice. I only do rinseless. The rags are a pain to wash because you have to presoak them. I think this year I will try the sponge.

    Foam, with the car DRY (why blast the crud of it). Then pressure wash rince. Then re foam and then a bucket wash over the foam (max lubricity). Then use how ever many mitts you want.. But as far as I'm concerned, if you gotta trash a mitt it means your pre wash/foam is not doing it's job. Of course, its a two bucket method. And I don't have masses of mitts to dry!

    I think we're all starting to get to a point where we are over thinking the process. When ever we use a pressure washer even to wash off pre foaming on a panel we are forcing micro dirt out of the foam at the panel and causing micro scratching. When taking a mitt or other media dunking it in a clean rinse bucket, wringing it and putting it into the product bucket, the suspended particles we pick up on the mitt are microscopic.. and ultimately less of a problem than the pressure washer is causing. You will never eliminate scratching the clear coat. Although I love the time and effort you've put into the theory, it's becoming overkill. In truth most customers would never notice micro scratches from the wash process. I've not had a customer yet go over the paint with an inspection light.
