Two Bucket Car Wash System
 

I started using a two bucket car wash system this week …

My wasteful pressure washer is how I keep my 1 small patch of crab grass alive in the summer.

It should only take one bucket... ;)

Pressure washing is a much more efficient method than hoses and buckets. There's certainly a lot less water in my drive after pressure washing compared to the hose and bucket.

Alas, my pressure washer is on the fritz. The water here at Rancho Indebto comes from a well in the back yard. It drains back into the ground (laden with car cleaning chemicals) when it runs off the driveway. :thumbup:

So you can use more that 2 buckets of water to wash your car? But why would you??

+1

All I do is shift some water from the back yard to the front yard.

My Superbeetle is in storage, but it had a decent waxed finish, and the biggest problem is pine needles littering it; so I would use a drafting brush to sweep it for it's weekly drive and wash it maybe once a month.

I was wondering if I should recommend the [Original] California blade, so I found this article:

from the comments:

[emphasis added] Using compressed air to blow out the hinges and mirrors sounds good, though.

Nice video :)

Is the purpose of this to save soap? and maybe reduce how much soap and such goes in to the soil? :confused:
