Default All cleaned up!

Woke up early and washed the cars.... I bought myself a new pressure washer on amazon for $150 worth every penny... Saves a bunch of time and no longer need the neighborhood mobile detailer. Got both cars spick and span in about an hour

you're using it on the lowest setting i hope, or you risk pressure washing the clear coat right off the car.

yes thank you I'm using it on a 25 degree setting... It's also not to powerful so I am not to worried about it only 2200 psi... Takes off dirt but no risk to the clear or paint or clear.
