hedge posted:Those of you without access to a hose should look into a product called Optimum No Rinse. You mix an ounce into 2 or so gallons of water and essentially use it as a sponge bath for your car. It acts as a surfactant so it encapsulates dirt so you don't scratch the car going over it with the sponge. The key is to use up a lot of the liquid in the process (ie don't wring out your sponge) and I try to keep the sponge clean by scraping it against the grit guard. drat! That looks really nice. I don't have access to a hose, but what I usually do is hit a local touchless car wash and then wax in the shade of a parking garage. Will have to give that no rinse a shot though as I'm never that happy with how things turn out with just the auto car wash (sometimes I have to run by a manual car wash to really clean some spots down). What are good ways to really clean interior headliners and fabric? One of my cars was driven by a smoker, and even after 3 years of me owning it and never smoking I can still catch traces of smoke smell from time to time. I'd love to steam clean the headliner or something similar to try and get it all out. mod sassinator fucked around with this message at 06:38 on Mar 26, 2012 |

I've tried cleaning at the coin washes with just water and spray on soap but it didn't really do a good job. The soap wasn't nearly as foamy as what those guns look like though. Might have to see if they have a better foam option.

azflyboy posted:What kind of sealant did you use? Just something I could find locally at an auto parts store: http://www.amazon.com/HEADLIGHT-LENS-SEALER-8-OZ/dp/B0051PJWQW It was about 8 bucks for the bottle but it should last a long time (you don't use a lot of it up when applying).
