I see a lot of comments about self-serve bays that don’t “allow” bucket washing. The reason is because it holds up the stalls and the car wash owner doesn’t make money if you aren’t using their high pressure sprayer. I’ve seen people not only bucket washing, but drying in the bay, and I don’t blame the owners for wanting to keep the potential PAYING customers moving through. But keep in mind most of these facilities are seldom continuously supervised and they all have dead times when nobody is waiting behind you. Most likely the worst thing that can happen to you if you break the rules is some “Karen” playing the role of Car Wash Cop.

The reason is car wash has water purifier , every single soap must be purified by the water purifier, NO soap must go into the nature. This is the Law in Italy at least. So if everybody uses they soap, ( i saw people using dishwashing soap too immagine that ) the purifiers cannot do theyre job properly. And can get damaged long term. If i was the owner, i wouldnt like people ruining my job cuz they use soap not allowed.

I've been doing this for years during the winter months, however, I go during off peak times, as they do frown upon you bringing your own bucket, and cleaning tools and products. Great video, I will check out your channel Chelsea. Thanks to you Pan for sharing your platform with a fellow detailer. 👍

Thanks Pan for sharing info on these useful washing techniques and for hosting knowledgeable guests. I like to hand wash my car on a weekly basis. Sometimes, if the car gets dusty(it's all glossy black), I'll bring it to the automatic car wash with a 1 gallon pump sprayer filled with a 128:1 Opticoat No Rinse solution. I spray it on, let it dwell for 5 minutes and then use the pressure wand to blow a high pressure stream of pure water nearly parallel to the surface. This gets the car looking like new and then I blow dry it with my battery powered leaf blower.

Great, providing you score with all the right components, the right car wash facility in a nice neighborhood being the biggest. Going on the right day and picking the best time of day is crucial to pulling this off as well. It can be done, but it's generally frowned upon by most car wash places.

Some self-service car wash have rules that you can’t bring your own tools and chemicals. Got a warning once when the owner was doing maintenance on site. It’s understandable, they make profits by clock and that won’t happen if we just using their water source for 2 mins.

Really excited to see this video- I'm planning on going to a self service place to wash my car for the 3rd time ever in a couple days and have been learning about detailing to prep and research some supplies in advance so I can try some new skills (I wanna try adding a decon step this time!). I live in an apartment complex and it doesn't make much sense for me to go over to a friend or parent's house for access to a hose because I have a sleep disorder and am pretty much only awake at night (not really enough light to wash a car and I'd need to be quiet, plus they'd have to be okay with me being there while they sleep), so I'm excited one of the few 24h places left are self service car washes! Gonna be there at like 3am washin my car lol. Really appreciate the video, this is perfect timing!

Wow! I wish I'd seen this video before washing my car today. Ironically, I also washed it at a car wash. However, my wheels and tires didn't look as well as I'd liked, despite bringing my own wheel and tire brushes. Now I understand why you sit, Pan to wash your wheels and tires. It's A LOT of work to REALLY get them clean. Or I should say, FOR ME to REALLY get them clean!! Since I had to do my wheels and tires in my yard, I had to contend with the wind and the continual dropping of my microfiber towels on the ground! Thanks to the wind and dropping towels, I used most of the clean towels I had today. My interior was pretty clean, but my exterior was rather dirty. HAD to get my baby clean before the week began. After actually using many of the cleaning steps that I've seen you do in your videos, I have an even DEEPER regard for the work that you do!! Thanks again for posting!

I really need to apologize as 2 months back i said it was absurd to expect people to wash their own cars when they may not have a house or garage. Since then, I've learned a ton and now do my own using a variety of techniques and supplies. Even learned that when it's below freezing to dry immediately after each panel or risk your rinseless freezing on the car. Also, if your car is crusted in salt, a few spraydowns of rinseless breaks the crust down and leaves only a film that easily gets washed away with your sponge. So, thank you for getting me started on my journey.

It's not cheap, but I'm getting the dirt off and minimizing the scratching of the clearcoat/paint.

Amazing video and great resource! I find this more complicated than I might recommend to my clients who have hired me to do a wash, clay and seal service. That service deep cleans and leaves a sealant on the surface. I have tried to make the cheapest and simplest system for my clients. Mostly they had already been going to a brushed drive through car wash. I recommend they use a touchless drive through car wash then use a quick detailer and micro fiber towel to dry the vehicle after. I also share how they can safely use either one large drying towel or multiple smaller towels with the QD as a drying aid. It's about $15 worth of product, $30 or less for towels and $7-10 for the car wash. It may be about 20 minutes of their time. I find that with the deep clean and protection we provide, the client can get super clean results safely when they are in between services. Our clients are not interested in becoming a detailer or spending $100+ to get all these tools. I love that but it's not their interest. What are yall's thoughts on this system?

Thanks for giving us permission to use a car wash. lol. I’ve stayed away for years, but it’s pollen season here and it’s good to know a self wash can be used if necessary. As a weekend warrior, it’s taken awhile to realize perfection is not attainable…do the best I can and learn to balance time, cost, and practicality. Keep up the great content.

Great topic as most folks don’t have the time, equipment, and facility to do a full detail wash. However, I’m not sure of how realistic this approach is for most folks. I really can’t imagine taking your own tools, soap to the self serve wash but most unrealistic is that a person would have the luxury of time to do all of that as all the washes around here are lined up with customers. It would cause an angry mob. Now having said that, I agree 100% with this approach as the best way but I’m just saying that I’m not sure of how realistic it is. Great alternative if possible. 👍

This is my method at the coin wash - 2 buckets with my own soap, mitts, towels and brushes. Fill both buckets up with their water; one with my own soap - then I rinse vehicle. That's about $3-4 right there only using the water and I turn it off. I do the traditional 2 bucket wash on the car first, and then I wash the wheels last to preserve my rinse bucket water. Car is now fully washed, I empty my buckets out and pay for the water again and rinse the buckets out on their wall mounted matt hangers. Rinse the car off and turn the water off. Another 3-5$. Now its time to dry the car apply whatever on it and enjoy. So about $6-10 spent using ONLY their water.

I am fortunate to have an insulated and heated garage and a couple of “pay and spray” self serve car washes that are not too far from my home. I live in Massachusetts between Boston and Worcester, this winter has been more wet than snowy, but with he pre-treatment of roads and salt spread during the few storms we have had, it is easy for cars to be encrusted with salt. My winter detail regimen is as follows:I turn on the heat in the garage, pack my wheel cleaners, iron decon chemicals (P&S Crystal Wash and Iron Buster) a sprayer with a solution of Optimum MDR and a couple of pump sprayers with a rinseless wash solution in a small tote. When I get to the pay and spray, I spray the MDR solution on the paint and let that work to break down the salt while I am waiting in line.. I spray the wheel cleaners and iron decon chemicals, what a few minutes and use the rinseless wash to knock down the iron decon residues. I either use my debit crad or cash and purchase $10-15 worth of time then use the rinse functions of the pay and spray to rinse the vehicle down, including the undercarriage. I then bring the vehicle to a nice warm garage, then to a proper rinseless wash and dry the vehicle.

Wonderful in concept. Completely impractical in reality. I love spending time detailing my car in the summer but winter in Colorado (and any other place that routinely gets snow and grime) is more about survival. Self serve car washes have lines of impatient people and loading up so much stuff when you just want to get the grit and grime off your car (fully knowing that it will rain or snow within the next few days) is just not worth it. Here is what I do on a a weekly basis (or at least when I know there is a few days of decent weather which will be worth getting the grit off the car. 1) High pressure water to get the caked on dirt 2) Foam spray on entire car 3) high pressure soap wash of entire car 4) Use the brush on glass ONLY (not on the paint) 5) High pressure rinse 6) spot free rinse (mostly for the glass 7) leave. It takes 10-15 minutes and while it doesn't get the car shiny, it gets the muck off and I'll repeat this every week. My car is graphene ceramic coated and in the summer it shines for 6 straight months and has ZERO swirl marks. Yeah, its not perfect in the winter but that's the joy of living in a snowy winter environment. Come April in Colorado, I will do a 2-3 hour full detail and then maintenance washes until winter comes again in late October.

That's cool because normally I'm always having to "beat the clock". But in this case you've done some of the work both before and after using the actual machine there.

One tip I started doing is to do the interior of car first, vacuuming etc. to give the wheels time to cool off before spraying with any cleaners

Hi Pan. Any tips/videos on a compact travel kit? Her kit is more comprehensive than what I would throw in a trunk or in a duffle bag. A kit that can be supplemented by a self serve car wash? Maybe one just power rinses their vehicle and then pull out for a no-rinse clean/detail. Or even possibly stand alone kit (a-la no rinse car wash) Maybe something like: Spray on car wash (maybe Griots) Interior cleaner Tire detailer and applicator Glass cleaner Bug cleaner And various microfibers and a couple of brushes. Thanks.

I have a unlimited water for €6 here and its great. Sometimes i’m in there for like 1hr and another hr at the dry/vacuum bay for the other parts. Never got yelled at but always make sure i go at like 8am so no one is there. For “maintenance” spraydowns i take an ik multi with BH touchless and i just spray the car, let it soak (sometimes i use the foam of the bay to cover it) and rinse off for a total of €4. Sometimes i do the second option, drive home and do a rinseless wash there. But if my wheels are very dirty i go for option 1

You could use a smaller IK foamer and just have a bucket for your rinseless wash and ceramic gloss plus drying towel

All the car washes around Dallas say "No bucket washing".

In my place they have big posters with a list of rules at the carwash and some sort of guardian roaming around making sure people respect the rules... BUT, I have a portable battery operated pressure washer, is not powerfull but does more then enough for rinsing off chemicals like prewashes and iron removers before going with my rinseless. I live in a condominium, the parking spot is pretty small and I have some stairs to do so it is a bit of a workout but I'm ocd enough to do this 😆and by doing this, I only have to go at the carwash when the car is super muddy and I need more pressure

Quick spray of Touchless around the vehicle, rinse off, go home. Under 10mins. Given we're charged a flat rate for time, I'm probably saving Morrisons some money as I'm not using any chemicals at all.

This is the way. No need to bring buckets at all. Just pre-spray with BH TL in a pump sprayer, let dwell for 5 min, rinse off. Pull out, dry with a leaf blower in a parking spot. Drive home and finish with a quick rinseless wash. Done. It's seriously the quickest and most efficient wash you can do.

The owner was there doing maintenance and when he saw me with bucket and MIT he told me i had to leave . I guess doing it the way i was does not use enough of the car wash chemicals . He took me to the other side of the building where he had a sign that said no hand washing .

I always go to a self service station. This is my way to do it First spray the car with a pre rinse, I use valetpro citrus Then I rinse my car with the waterlance. After it I use a ik foamer with brake buster and clean my wheel en tires with it. I also use a bucket with water and some soap I first foam. Then rinse tires and wheels, but also bucket and brushes and foam up the soap in my wash bucket. After it wash my car, 2 bucket method. And rinse of. Then dry with dream maker and a towel. Then whipe inside the doors, dry the wheels and tires. Then clean the windows and do some dressing on my tires. Then I clean the interior or just only remove the dust inside with a microfiber.
