Properly washing and drying your vehicle using quality products and techniques is one of the biggest factors in keeping your vehicle free from swirl marks and scratches. In the video below, I walk through our complete washing and drying process, highlighting safe washing methods, the two-bucket method, drying techniques, and the tools used along the way. If you are looking for a more in-depth breakdown of the process, be sure to check out the article, “The Best Way to Wash and Dry Your Car at Home,” where I deep dive into this process with more information and photos!
