THE 2-BUCKET CAR WASH METHOD IS DEAD. HERE’S WHY |

Are you a fan of using two buckets (one for "washing," the other for "rinsing") during your car wash? The idea goes something like this: you dunk your wash mitt in the wash bucket, and then touch the car for the contact wash. Then, you dunk the mitt in the "rinse" bucket against the grit guard -- hoping, somewhat blindly, that the dirt all comes off and STAYS in that bucket. You then dunk your mitt back in the wash bucket for fresh suds/soap and off you go.
Welp......it's time for that method to be retired. Put out to pasture. Laid to rest.
This podcast is all about the why!

pre soak, foam, rinse, foam and one bucket full of top quality micro rags soaking in my favorite soap. No rinse, just discard rag and grab a fresh one! I developed this before I ever seen it on Social Media because I own a Veloster N. Yes it's a sweet car but Hyundai paint will scratch if you breath on it to hard lol. Love the content guys! Thanks

Great method!

@mikek5631 Месяц назад

I still use the 2 bucket method with grit guards and will likely do this until the day I can no longer wash my own car. However, a cpl of years ago I did start dry foaming my car before that first rinse and agree that there is less risk of scratching by allowing that first foaming to lift the grit up before the first rinse. My process is foam-rinse-foam-contact wash using 2 bucket method. I'm not a professional detailer. Just a weekend warrior so time is of no concern for me. I actually wish it took me longer to detail my car because it's one of the few times during the day or week when I can just be in my own space and not be bothered by anything or anyone else. I'm sure there are legitimate reasons why the 2 bucket method is overkill, but it's served my well all these years.

Perfect, safer is never a bad thing. What’s important is to enjoy yourself

@chadamos7297 Год назад

I’ve watched several videos that Pan has out there about foaming, and effectiveness of several soaps on foam canon. Higher ph soaps for sure removed a little more road film or grime than ph neutral soaps. But simply foaming and rinsing doesn’t cut it. Have to have contact wash. I did see DIY received a few awards in Pans 2023 top products! Nice work fellas.

I've enjoyed the hybrid method of a foam pre-wash, then rinseless contact method. Just used it tonight on my personal vehicle as it was heavy with pollen, bugs and some fresh sap. Foamed the car, let it dwell, pressure rinsed off then foam sprayed rinseless and went to contact, it was perfect. Nice option if you want to speed up the 2 foam method a little.

Thanks guys to the indepth discussion on the two bucket method. After trying various methods over the years since getting into DIY detailing at home, the method I now use on my car which is parked outside on the street 24/7, that has Opti-Coat Pro+ coating that is now 4 years old, I will spray an all purpose cleaner (APC) onto the dry paint let it dwell a couple of minutes, then I spray layer of foam on top of the APC, let the foam dwell no more than 5 minutes and pressure washer rinse. Then using only one bucket with grit guard and ONR, using the Black Sponge and a microfibre mitt, I do a contact wash of one panel at a time. After each panel is washed, I then use a drying towel with a drying aide to leave a topper on each panel and glass. The car finish is sparkling and I have added a little extra protection.

I really am glad Yvan and Nick decided to discuss the two-bucket method, as a car enthusiast, I realized how much damage I was doing to my truck by taking it to car washes places, I had bought a brand new Tacoma (black) and after 6 months noticed swirl marks and scratches all over the truck, I was so upset that I said, no more, I'm doing my own washes from now on. I have learned allot from Yvan, and his knowledge and experience is so valuable. His methods work and are cost effective, I was spending so much money on products and materials, my only question is what about DI water Yvan/Nick? Or anyone for that matter?

I just started Mobile Detailing in March 2023. I was using the 2 bucket method and would do a pre-rince. However, i noticed that a lot if the dirt/dust didnt come off causing rinse bucket and soap bucket would get dirty. So i started using a separate microfiber towel during my pre-rinse. I'll use my pressure washer in 1 hand and my towel in another and spray and wipe at same time. I've noticed that the cars are cleaner and my customers are happier.

@georgemcfarland5484 Год назад

I Agree, two bucket causes more scratches and swirls, you are dunking dirty wash media into the soap bucket even after you used the rinse bucket. Least amount of chances, use one bucket with grit guard, never pre-rinse. Foam on dry, rinse, foam again and contact wash, rinse, use drying aid, done.

I use rinseless. Pre-treat with rinseless, let it dwell and then add APC on top of that if needed. Rinse off and then to a contact wash with rinseless.

Thanks for this. I use a bit of a hybrid method at times. Pre rinse with a rinse less wash on a dry car. Then hit the car with a foam - usually ph neutral. Rinse. And then spray the car again with rinse less wash and then clean via rinse less wash method one bucket. Blow dry and then finish off drying with beads maker.

@theredscourge 11 месяцев назад

I have my own 2 bucket method: fill 2 buckets, dump half of one on the roof, dump the other half in a pump sprayer to hit the sides and crevices, then whenever I need to clean the mitt or sponge, hold it over the empty bucket and dump water from the full bucket onto the sponge, then take that used water and dip a wheel brush and barrel brush in it to use it on the wheels. Mark the two buckets differently and you can ensure you never put any brake dust on your paint, except at the very beginning if you didnt clean the wheel bucket since last wash. Less efficient, but no wash media recontamination and no foam cannon required.

Hi guys! Ever since buying my 2023 Mazda CX-5 in November I've been trying to learn how best to wash the exterior and what products to use. The downfall is I use a garden hose and forced to do the washing outside. I've gotten confused as to what products to use that will be safe for my car. It seems like every detailer has favorite different products they like. Recently I purchased many of the SudsLab products for washing and for the tires and wheels and for the interior. I am so confused as to what to do or where to start because I just used to go out and soap up the old cars, rub a sponge or mitt over and rinse them off with the water hose.

@nomad509 Год назад

I've been playing around with wash methods on my daily. I have an abundance of rinseless wash so I usually soak the car from a Marloex sprayer and once it has sat on the surface the car is rinsed off with distilled water. Since I am an apartment dweller, I do not have access to flowing water so I am forced to use limited amounts of water that results in one bucket of suds plus using the IK Pro 12 for foam. In my testing using one pad I tend to get minimal grime at the bottom of the bucket. I usually like to store extra pads and soap in my second bucket and plan on testing out two pads on my next wash to see how effective the Gary Dean method can be in this scenario. I do plan on introducing a dedicated foam prerinse step to washes in the near future that validates what you guys discussed.

@corrybowers5078 Год назад

“Traffic film is oils” that being said, these oils would also attract and hold dirt and not all of that fine grit will be “washed” away by foaming. I think this method with the addition of multiple wash mitts/plush towels would be the safest method that can reasonably be achieved. Regardless of what we do I don’t believe it possible to remove all grit before a contract wash. At best we are minimizing the potential for damage.

IMO, the two bucket is still alive because businesses want to sell you two buckets, two dollys, two grid guards, side guards, etc. No bucket to me is one wash mitt on a foamed car and rinsing out the mitt after each panel with the spray gun. I prefer one bucket using multiple high gsm microfibers flipping sides until all are used then going to a new one. This way you can save the old soap water for the next wash. Totally believe in the dry foam, rinse and then foam again not just for lubrication, but also its easier to see where you wiped last. Plus like you said we love to foam.

The only difference is the longer dwell time of foam. If it's really hot, foam may be a better choice but in terms of cleaning power I don't think there is a difference at all. With the 2 foam method it can make sense, yes, because foam adds more lubrification but you have to keep in mind that a foam gun connected to a pressure washer also consumes a lot more product than a simple pump sprayer.

@@alexf6021 there’s a slight difference for the pre-soak, not much passed that.

I also like to pre foam the entire vehicle and watch it dwell before rinsing. However I am just not fast enough to foam the vehicle and do a contact wash after that. The foam always ends up drying on half the vehicle, even when I push my speed to the limits.

@diydetailofficial Год назад

Not a big concern.

@ct181 11 месяцев назад

Different strokes for different folks. I have been double foam one bucket for a long time now. I just prefer it to 2 buckets, but that is me. I also use 4 different mitts, and discard into empty bucket after a panel or 2

@diydetailofficial 11 месяцев назад

@user-kv6cr8sv3f Год назад

Truth be told, I've been using the foam-rinse-foam method for years. Along with one bucket and 5 mitts. No need to ever rinse a mitt and reuse if you have a few mitts.

@Diy Detail. Today i did my first rinseless wash. I did a thorough clean last weekend, so i figured it woyld be a great time to try it out. I pre-soaked with suds very rinny and A.P (lots of bugs) rinsed. Let dwell as i loosend up wheel gunk and then rinsed. Foamed on rinseless and obviously sponge bucket with rinseless and did the work. The paint felt super clean when i was done, very awesome. I hit it with quick beads, and garden hose/sprinkler setting to spread the product. Came out awesome EXCEPT my glass. I had high spot streaking everywhere and had to go over the windows several times with another product. Is there a trick for glass or did i not rinse it down enough? The end product gave my car a "pop" that even neighbors walking by commented on. Definitely my favorite outcome ever with this car.

@diydetailofficial Год назад

Excellent, yes for thé Glass you probably used too much DIY Detail Quick Beads. Also when rinsing make to rinse until all the foaming is gone. If you do ever get streaks again, simply apply DIY Detail Quick Beads with a MF towel.

A bit of a slow process, but post the two foams I prefer using one side of wash mitt per panel then high pressure clean each side before going back into the single soapy bucket. Never a chance of the mitt holding grit.

@diydetailofficial 10 месяцев назад

Your choice

@matthewgibb2640 Год назад

Its only taken sixteen years for someone besides final inspection and i to say this. He created the zero bucket method back then (no foam cannon) I prefer pre soaking with rinseless then high pressure (not too high) then rinseless wash your way or a one bucket soap wash with many mitts which never go back in the bucket or high pressure rinse the same one mitt clean after every panel or two. But hey do it the way you find safe, efficient and or fun.

@diydetailofficial Год назад

yessir! lots of good options that center around the principle of pre treating the paint before hitting it with a pressure washer. Although a ton of wash mitts or towels seems like over kill, I totally get the logic of never touching the paint with a "used" side of the towel....and then, in exchange for lots of laundry, you also don't make your wash bucket dirty whatsoever so I guess you could wash another car with it too. -Nick

@faYte0607 11 месяцев назад

Give me proof that this foaming method works better, otherwise it's all just "trust me bro" to be different and make noise out of nothing. I firmly believe foam does absolutely very little to "soften" the crud that's on the paint. What I do is rinse with pressure washer to remove 99% of the crud that's on the car. Then I foam the car to give it lubrication. Then I use the wash mitt with the two bucket. Since I already took off most of what's on the car, the rinse bucket is probably overkill, but I still do it out of habit. Edit: lo and behold, the description contains affiliate link to the foam wash soap! To my point of making noise out of nothing.

@diydetailofficial 11 месяцев назад

I suggest you do a side by side test on your own vehicle. That’s the best proof you will get.

@ac7384 9 месяцев назад

Could you also use the 1 bucket method and just rinse your wash mitt off with pressure washer before the next dip into the wash bucket. Would that be safe to do so also ?

@Cyprus_Property Год назад

Thank you guys, great video. It raises another question about pressure washers. If you're 'rinsing' the car rather than blasting off the grit, etc. first with a 2000psi+ pressure washer, do you need such a powerful machine? I appreciate you may need something more powerful to blast the dirt from wheel arches and undercarriage, but is it necessary for the paintwork?

@diydetailofficial Год назад

A pressure washer is a nice tool to have, but far from necessary.

@whitegoodman7465 Год назад

Pre wash is pretty much why, pre wash is king. North America is way behind on the importance of pre wash compared to Europe. Doenst matter if rinseless, soap or steel wool is used to hand wash after, the goal should always be to get as much dirt off the car as possible before touching the paint, its common sense really. If you want to wipe dirt off instead of spraying it off, expect more scratches/swirls over time, even with a rinseless.

@diydetailofficial Год назад

Thank you 🙏 agreed, pre foam/rinse is hugely important

@jazzman9469 Год назад

Great video guys! I just purchased the Marolex Foam Sprayer because I don't own a power washer. Will your Incredible Suds work in this foam sprayer? I have tried 2 different products that state they can be used in foam sprayer/cannon. Thank you guys!

@diydetailofficial Год назад

It should! It definitely foams great from an IK, if you want shaving cream foam you might need to change dilution from typical foam cannon 32:1 dilution and add a bit more incredible suds. If you’re okay with foam being a little thinner that’s still a great dilution.
