Today’s challenge was to do a wash and vacuum on a BMW in Palm Beach. Due to steady rain, it was not possible to wash it and then dry it with the use of a chamois. This problem doesn’t regularly happen. But being a Gold Coast Mobile Car Detailing Service, I have worked out a waterless car wash method. This is ideal on a car not badly soiled and very suitable for our climate.
I was able to the complete job under cover inside the garage. Using a micro fibre cloth, I applied the product working from the roof down. This product has a two-fold advantage in that it not only removes light soiling and contamination off the paintwork, but also leaves a light residue of wax. Therefore, once I had completed the waterless car wash, I could buff the car with a soft cloth. However, timing the buff was crucial because of the cooler temperature of the day and slight humidity. So I waited the appropriate time and once buffed, the car looked great!
This waterless wash method was also very successful on the alloy wheels. Being a European car, there was significant brake dust contamination of the wheels due to soft brake pads. Most European cars do this! But the wheels also cleaned up beautifully and after a light wipe down also shone. Next I attended to the glass exterior on the side and rear windows as well as the sunroof. It was important that I didn’t apply an excessive amount of waterless product. Otherwise, I would have spent “half a day” buffing the excess product off the glass.
Overall, the BMW looked fantastic. The waterless car wash and method I used today was ideal and effective on this vehicle. It’s a process that I can use on days where rain hampers me being able to do a standard wash and chamois.
