How are you washing your Bronco?

[zerk4321]

Was doing home power wash, but got hit by a car on my bicycle, so while recovering doing brushless car wash. I’ll be going back to power wash at home, though.

Have a membership at a new local car wash for all my cars. Can go through the wash as often as I want. Place has awesome free vacuums too.

I was doing this as well and it was fantastic. Brought my own washing mitts and buckets, and it was a great solution.

BUT, they raised their membership cost this year, and it is now more economical to do it at home. Slightly less convient since I have to drag my power washer and/or vaccum out everytime I want to clean my vehicles, but saves me the drive to the car wash and I can now wash all my vehicles at once. Add on the fact that the power washer I bought will pay for itself in about ~14 months, and it was a no-brainer in the end.

depends... if i go out wheeling i may go to a touchless car wash mainly to get as much dirt off the bottom then come home and give it it a good power wash (though i still have pink sand all over in crevices from my trip to moab haha)

but if I haven't been wheeling I just use the waterless carwash stuff from chemical guys.

I wait till we are both real dirty and go here

1 Drive-through car wash. Condo living here with no water outlet on my side of the building, no hose, etc. There is not a Touchless car wash close to me. I will have detailed annually to remove any brush marks. I used to hand-wash everything years ago. But now, I have no interest in hand-washing any vehicle.

So far, I'm not. I haven't done anything to get it real dirty yet, and I think I'll have it detailed in the fall.

I use a foam cannon by

and a micro Fiber car wash mop with handle.

Bronco has full PPF and ceramic, so I hand wash at home and use air cannon to dry.

1) Drive through the car wash for a quick and convenient clean
2) Hand washing at home
3) Hand washing at pull-up car washes

4) None of the above.

If I try to wash her, "Dirty Gertie" bucks like a Bronco emblem.

She doesn't have any problem goung to meet ups and shows filthy. She says people tell her "that's the way a Bronco is supposed to look". I can't fight that logic.

So where's the thread for dirty girls like her?

I go to a local hand wash.
Oddly enough, on this visit, a Bronco was in front of me.

Machine wash mostly, though I'll do the windshield by hand, on occasion, when the bug guts get too thick.

Hand wash. Oddly enough it is pretty easy compared to my Grand Cherokee I trade in. Bronco has way less nooks and crannies I had to get into to.

Washing by hand in the driveway. Got a wash and foam cannon kit from chemical guys.

Got a ceramic coating, so that plus a soft top means I’m hand washing at home. Pressure washer plus foam cannon here.

Washed it today. I start with washing the wheels and tires. Then I rinse the whole vehicle getting all the loose stuff off.
Then I hit it with foam all over to start breaking things down.
And then I hand wash it with a bucket and a mit rinsing it off as I go. It was super windy out, so I chose to wash it in my garage today so areas didn't dry too fast.
