Car wash soaps come in a variety of formalations with some car soaps offering characterstics such as extra lubricity, additional gloss, and additional suds. In the case of Chemical Guys Honeydew Snow Foam, it is a car wash soap that offers more soap suds more than your typical car wash soap. This makes it an excellent candidate for use in a foam gun, especially in a foam cannon.
g for a way to easily apply some protectant on your vehicle after a car wash, a good option is to use a spray wax. Spray waxes typically offer an easy spray on, wipe off application, but don’t last as long as a traditional wax. However, the ease of application offsets that downside. Meguiars offers a spray wax called Ultimate Quik Wax, which works well for someone who doesn’t mind applying on a regular basis for a bit of protection on their vehicle.
There are many ways of dusting the interior of your vehicle depending on the situation you’re in. Some areas are more difficult to dust than others due to hard-to-reach or oddly-shaped areas. It’s possible to use a vacuum or compressed air blower with a brush attachment, but these options tend to move the dust around rather then removing it completely. Another option is to use a dust cleaning gel, which molds into the unique shape of the crevice and when pulled away, pulls away all of the dust along with it.
After washing your car, a typical method for drying your car is to use a drying towel that is made specifically for this purpose. Another option for drying off your vehicle after a wash is to use an air blower. This involves using an air blower (think leaf blower) to blow all the remaining water off the surface of your car. It’s important to not let any leftover water to dry on the vehicle, otherwise you might be left with water spots on your car. One of the highest CFM electric blowers that I’ve found is the TORO PowerJet F700 electric leaf blower, which cuts down on the amount of time I’ve had to use a drying towel significantly.
A highly recommended and easy-to-use wax is a liquid wax called Collinite No. 845. This is now a well-known wax that is widely available to consumers. However, I remember about a decade ago when I first used this product and having to go to a boating product retailer called West Marine to purchase it. In fact, Collinite No. 845 was initially created for power companies to coat their insulators, hence the name ‘Insulator Wax’.
Whether you’re a weekend warrior cleaning up the interior of your personal vehicle, or a mobile car detailer working several cars a day, I truly believe that this is the perfect shop vac for car detailing. Not only does it have enough power for vacuuming most things you’ll encounter in the cabin of a car, it also offers an invaluable car cleaning kit with all the right attachments.
Over the past year, I tested out a foam cannon along with a snow foam cleanser for all of my car detailing. This Chemical Guys Torq foam cannon makes it easy to apply soap on your vehicle during a car wash, but more importantly it works effectively at cleaning dirt and grime by doing a pre-soak.
