- This week, we wanted to take the chance to make a more educational video with full transparency. After the wash, we had Todd walk around the truck to point out all the spots he missed and explain the outcome plus ways to avoid sub-optimal results. We zoom in and go into detail on how we messed up so you can avoid it during your wash jobs. Time stamps below so you can skip to the parts you want to see. Thanks for checking us out!

I haven’t seen that name on a truck in a while. Used to work for Ron Besteman back in the 80’s. He was a good guy.
really appreciate the time you took and the transparency. says a lot. great job.
Nice thorough wash! Your truck driver past shows in your attention to detail and knowing right where the trouble areas are. Thats a sharp tractor too
Thanks for noticing, Doug!
Appreciate the honesty. Nice work. Long even strokes when brushing/wanding helps with time efficiency and avoiding those miss spots.
For sure!! Thanks Bob!
Nice Work. I am adding Fleet washing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise.
Warm regards,
Octavius
Awesome honest video,👍👍
Thank you so much!
Good stuff
Appreciate it
I absolutely love the results definitely need to try this will this also work on car trucks and SUVs?
Absolutely! You can use it on any vehicle. It's completely safe on all exterior vehicle surfaces.
Great job washing the truck and know what it's like to get a truck clean without making mistakes because I washed trucks and trailers and I had to brush them all and it took about 30 minutes plus just wanted to say hello from n.c.
Thanks man! 30 minutes for a brush wash is super fast! Is that just for a day cab?
@@ImageWashProducts well we had to wash everything that was going out on the road both trucks and trailer's and they wanted the trucks and trailer's to be very clean to go out
Did u guys use a hot water pressure washer or just a regular pressure washer type
Awesome honest video, way better than Streakin Beacon and it doesn't hurt the polished Aluminum.
Thanks Jeff! You know us, always about honesty and transparency around here. 👌
Thanks for the video, I'm just getting my business started up here in Vancouver B.C so this helps a lot! BTW were you using hot water?
Congratulations on the new business!! Glad you find this helpful. We do all of our 2-step touchless washes with cold water. The only time we would use hot water would be for heavy degreasing or for the rinse portion of the process. 99% of the time, we stick to cold water.
Looks amazing !! I have a 8gpm machine @ 3500 psi. Do you have a cannon that would work for me?
Hey Dan the PSI is certainly within the parameters of both of the foam cannons we offer, the only issue is your GPM is higher than they can handle which can certainly impact the performance of the foam cannons.
Thanks for taking us through the truck with the post-wash inspection. Quick question, if I wanted to go 100% clean and break out the mitts, is it still okay to leave the 2 step on there (with the neutralizer), or should I significantly reduce the areas that I spray at a time?
Great question. First of all, thanks for watching the video. Glad to hear the extra effort we put in with the post wash inspection was worth it. We appreciate the feedback.
Although the pH will be neutral after using both steps, we still don’t recommend getting the chemicals all over your hands/arms, as is typical with a mitt wash.
If you plan to mitt the vehicle anyway, we’d use our other soap, Platinum Wash. It’s a super high lubricity soap that’s perfect for mitt washing.
A lot of times, we will bust out a hog hair brush to get some of those areas too difficult to hit with the proper rinse angle.
Hope this answers your question.👍
How’s this stuff do on removing all the bugs ? We have a small fleet of trucks and a wash bay and it’s seems like we can’t find a soap that will take off most of the the bugs.
Hey there Jeremy! We always recommend pre-soaking the surface with our Bug Remover first. It'll help take those bugs off with no problem. Check out this video to see our full recommended process 👉 ua-cam.com/video/SsLQCp3nKvY/v-deo.html
Still beter than the Becon but for a quick wash can't bet it.🤑🏁👌
Challenge accepted. 😎
Looks awesome!
Which are your recommendations on psi and gpm for foaming and rinsing?
Thanks!
Anything over 2000PSI/2GPM should be plenty. 👌
I have a 4000psi- 4gpm pressure washer. What pressure should I tone is down to when using your foam guns? Could I use an X-jet to put the cleaners down too?
You need to down stream the chemicals on and use a dual lance wand so you can adjust the pressure on demand.
You can add an upstream chemical injector to your machine for about $50 and you will speed up the cleaning process by about 50%.
If you can use at least warm water, you will get much better results
A truck like this will normally take about 20 minutes to clean with one personIf you are going at a medium pace.
Is this ok to use on a rig that's been ceramic coated?
Yes! Absolutely. This is the preferred way to wash ceramic coated vehicles since you're not putting any friction to the surface with a brush or mitt. Touchless washes come out WAY cleaner when the vehicle has wax or ceramic coatings.
Where can i get that brush that u were using for the exhaust?
Right on our website. They're very popular, so they sell out quick despite us always trying to keep them stocked up.

How tractors can you use with one fill up cannon
Check out this page (link below). Expand the section that shows "Cost Breakdown" you will find the information you are seeking there.

is this a safe acid wash for trailers too?
Yup! It's safe on all surfaces.
Will the step 1 etch any glass? Though I heard in another video to apply step 2 on all glass before applying step one, is this true?
We have never expereinced etching of glass with our step 1. It's a very gentle step 1 made up of organic acids. So it's less aggressive on things like glass or polished aluminum.
As always though, make sure to test on a small section before using it on the whole truck. Never know what kind of environmental factors may be specific to your setup/water/etc.
Thanks for your question!
Still looks better than the “ streek’n beacon “
haha thanks Carl! ❤️
How many gallons of water roughly do u use per truck .
Good question. Our pressure washer is a 5.5 GPM unit and it usually takes 30-40 minutes to do a truck.
I have a 4 gallon per minute, 4000psi pressure washer is that too much? What do you recommend?
That'll work perfectly! I wouldn't recommend anything different. Only recommendation I would make would be to use a 40 degree tip when rinsing.
@@ImageWashProducts so when using your foam cannon it’s safe to use that type of Psi
Am starting mobile truck wash ... any suggestions and guidance please 🙏
Feel free to reach out to our team at sales@washproduct.com
What size lance is that sir?
I believe it's a 68" lance.
What soap cannon are y’all using?
Hey Dustin we offer a few different types on our website 👉🏽 washproduct.com/collections/foam-cannons-guns
But the one specifically used in this video is this one: washproduct.com/collections/foam-cannons-guns/products/wide-based-foam-cannon
As soon as you sell 16 ounces bottles, I’ll guve a try, I’ve use all the touchless wash soaps nothing seems to work on dark paint cars im kind of skeptical
Hey Pedro! It simply wouldn't make sense to sell 16oz bottles for us. If we did, they would be priced at $20ish per bottle, so $40 for both step 1 and 2, which ends up costing the end user $80/gallon when you do the math... Those are insane prices most of our customer's would not want to pay.
That's why we make videos like this with full transparency and a detailed walk through afterwards so you can see exactly the kind of results you can expect before you commit. We try our best to be as open and honest as possible. Feel free to shoot us a message on FB if you have any questions, we'd love to help you out. facebook.com/washproduct
Thanks for the feedback!
@@ImageWashProducts can you give discounts for first time clients?
@@Pedroluvslupe sure! No problem at all, sir! Shoot us a private message on FB and we'll get you a custom code to try it out. If you don't have Facebook, you can email us at help@washproduct.com

The brush is always needed no way around it
Hey Arnold thanks for checking us out. It really comes down to how often you wash your truck. Our Touchless is a maintenance wash that is not intended to replace the brush but something to do in between your brush washes. Doing so helps you save time, money, and elbow grease. Give a try for yourself as we do offer a 30 day money back guarantee. :)
Happy Washing!
But nothing is really polished on this truck. The tank and steps are stainless. Wheels are dura brights not even polished.. Not proving at all this is polish safe.
Feel free to try some for yourself, we offer a 30 day money back guarantee.
