How To Use

Washing

  1. Rinse the car to remove loose dirt.
  2. Add shampoo to a bucket of water at the dilution on the bottle.
  3. Wash from the roof down with a clean wash mitt, one panel at a time.
  4. Rinse the mitt in a second bucket of clean water between panels.
  5. Rinse the car thoroughly before it dries.

Drying

  1. Dry with a clean, plush drying towel.
  2. Pat or glide the towel gently, never scrub.
  3. Dry the glass last with a separate towel.
  4. Wash the mitt and towels after use.

Top Tip: A second bucket of clean water for rinsing the mitt keeps grit off the paint and cuts wash marring.

Performance Benefits

  • Lifts dirt safely during the wash
  • Suits regular maintenance washes
  • Works with the two bucket method
  • Rinses away cleanly
  • Suits hand washing at home
