      I do, but touchless only. I work where there's a lot of falling rock grit near several cement and asphalt plants so my car is constantly coated in dirt and limestone dust that falls on it all day. If it rains, the limestone dust leaves terrible water spots unless the rain is strong enough to fully flush the car of dust. If it doesn't rain my car is covered in sharp highly abrasive grit. BC1 certainly helps but I don't think anything will actually keep my car clean in that environment. Oh and I'm near a rail yard so I'm getting iron fall out too. I run through the touchless then douse the car with a mix of UWW+/ONR and use the plushest highest pile microfiber I can find to wipe it down. It's time to get some CarPro reset, the BC1 is getting a bit clogged after 6 months.

      Ever since I started detailing in 2018 no more tunnel washes. It gives me a grin when I see a customer’s vehicle with the unlimited pass in their window as I am polishing!!😅

      Only in an emergency (sap, tar, etc) and on my older 2005 truck. I hand wash my other vehicles. I have a pressure washer, 3 buckets, D.I. Rinse.

    My mom goes to an automatic car wash and she has had several pieces of plastic trim ripped off of her vehicle which is in good condition otherwise. She was furious and went back to he carwash and they had a whole pile of trim pieces from the months they have been open. They told her she could pick from to see if hers was there! 😂 Crazy

    I've done two vehicles with BC7. Very easy to apply. Working time for me because of the humidity was longer than expected. I will say coating light color vehicles is much harder than dark color vehicles. I will be using BC7 on another one of my vehicles, that's how much I like this coating.

    The new express washes have neoprene brushes and they dont swirl up your paint like the soft cloth brushes like before. What you DON'T want to do tho is dry the vehicle right after the express wash with a dry towel. Always use a quick detailer as a drying aid. It's the drying that causes post wash that causes most of the swirls.

    With BC7 when layering if you miss that "2 hour" window for the second coat should you wait until full cure to do the second coat or at that point is it too late because it will just reject itself?

    @calstankey4131 4 місяці тому

    From 35 years of automatic wash operation and supply, I have numerous comments. You seem to have essentially endorsed the modern friction wash state of the art. The closed cell foam material used on wraparounds and the like is LOUD, but that doesn’t mean it is harming your vehicle. The material holds minimal liquid solution and uses one of God’s favorites, centrifugal force as well as gravity. Consequently it is VERY difficult to retain grit and use it to scuff the paint, as you so ably demonstrate on your frequently washed shop truck. The washing solution may well be neutral or mildly acidic, not alkaline. Finally, even though you don’t purchase an extra service protectant, your vehicle IS receiving a hydrocarbon additive to induce beading and therefore dryer performance. Washes get a bum rap because some operators cheapen their product. The particular facility you chose is a top tier operation which has much to do with how good your truck looks

    • @BetterThanNewDetailing
      @BetterThanNewDetailing 4 місяці тому

      😂😂😂wow…so let me ask you…why don’t owners of classic or show cars ever use an automatic car wash? Because they don’t want their highly polished flawless paint jobs destroyed by the car wash process in just one visit that’s why.

    Brian, I am thinking about trying a ceramic coating for a 2015 Q5. I'm considering a 1- 3 year product from you. My question is this: If I don't like having a coating or the coating is starting to wear off, how do I get it 100% removed so I can apply either another coating or go back to PolySeal? Videos are great and I appreciate all the time you put into helping us keep our cars looking their best.
