Recently I was discussing the two bucket wash method with someone and they called me picky. I really don't think its that bad. It's just proper washing care imo.



What is the most pickiest thing you think you do when detailing?

It is very picky IMO, but I also agree it is proper and will cause the least amount of damage. But for those that didn't chose the blue pill and they can't see the swirls, they take a sponge and scrub it clean rubbing all that dirt and scratching it all up. The avg machine car washes cause less damage than the avg person cleaning who is clueless.



But when you have spent 20 hours detailing it and polishing it to get those out, you are more than willing to take the time to two bucket wash it.

I tend to paint everything, especially that will rust. I also grease all of my bolts.
