How we wash our car - "A man who polishes his car polishes himself".

Car wash in our house

Car.Nakabayashi Kogyo's body coverAlthough the number of car washes has decreased dramatically since I started applying(My husband says it's about one-fifth to one-tenth of what it used to be.)My husband does not use any hand car wash service at gas stations and washes his car by himself. On hot summer days and cold winter days, he washes the car very carefully, sweating and mosquito-bitten.

So today, I would like to share with you how we wash our cars.

Step 1. Remove dirt with a high-pressure washer.

in my familyKärcher high-pressure cleanersbut first wash the entire body with it.

As for the wheels, he said that if they are washed down with a Kärcher, they will be almost completely clean. Then, he said, only the dirt that could not be removed when wiping up should be wiped off.

If there are stains that cannot be removed with just this, or if there is fine iron dust on the surfaceClay cleaner for car washto get the dirt off the area. In this regard, my husband is

If you put the cellophane that wraps a box of cigarettes or a box of candy on your hand and touch the car, you can see how rough it is.

He said.

By the way, I used to know nothing about car washing.Just wipe it off."So I suddenly tried to wipe off the dirt with a dry cloth without even spraying water, and on the contrary, I put fine scratches on the body, and my husband warned me severely (sweat)... I'm sorry...

Step2. Blow off water droplets with a blower.

Then, a blower blows the water droplets away, but in our house.Ryobi" blowersusing the

He said that this would make it very easy to skip the water droplets, greatly reducing the time required to wipe up the car. In other words, like an automatic car wash at a gas station."The water is sprayed vigorously to remove the dirt, and then wind pressure blows the droplets away."I guess that means you are doing the work yourself.

Step3. Wipe up with coating agent

Then, wipe on the coating.(We use Shurastar Coating Agent Zero Drop)Wipe it off carefully with a car wash towel (cloth). Our Porsche has a body coating, so we do not use compounded wax and detergent is sufficient.

The car is clean enough to end the wash here...

Step4. Wipe dry with a dry towel.

My husband is.Always wipe dry at the end.Yes, it is. There is a big difference between doing this and not doing this. By adding this last step, the body will be shiny and smooth, and the cleanliness will last for a long time.

And honestly, I don't think it would be easy to wash a Panamera by yourself.(I mean, help me out, will you?)I was in a gas station and often came across a Mercedes-Benz S-Class or Panamera coming in for a hand-wash. So I asked my husband if he would be interested inWouldn't it be easier to just ask the gas station to hand wash your car?"I said.

No matter how expensive luxury cars I can afford, and no matter how much I don't have to worry about financially to ask for gas at the gas station, I'mNever forget your first love.And I don't want to forget how I felt when I had no money and had to wash my car by hand at a car wash late at night, so I do it myself.
Moreover, when I wash the car myself, I feel like I can talk to the car and understand its condition at the time. Whether or not I understand the condition of my car greatly affects its performance, so as a car lover, I want to wash my car by myself.

And. I see...

And my husband went on to say this.

I mean, one of my mottos is "A man who polishes his car also polishes himself.

I didn't realize that......you really are all about cars in your mind, aren't you?
