Hand Washed the Raptor Today

[dc1gator]

I always wash mine by hand. Blow dry at 70 MPH.

I just got my designated wash system set up about a month ago and love it. My well water has a ton of minerals in it and even with a good blow off and drying I’d get water spots. The microns tester that came with my DI system has my tap water at 700 and after the DI it tested at 10. It was hard walking away without drying but it worked great. We’ll see how many gallons I get out of the resin. View attachment 140945

What did that system cost and was it a kit, what brand

I love my Ego blower. With the ceramic coating the water just sheets off with ease and then I spray on some CarPro reload and wipe it off and the shine is incredible. And then I realize it’s a raptor and shouldn’t be shiny

Partially correct. The truck rolling to the offroad area should be clean, then once you start to get it dirty part of it is clean and looks good and party muddy/dirty. Kinda like real mud splatter graphics.

You'd never know mine has EVER been off road. I'm just very, very good at cleaning it up.

Can anyone recommend a good wheel brush that isn't $50?

Why not just your your filtered air from the air compressor to dry the truck? Especially if you have a plug in unit, you are already hauling a cord around, or is the flow not enough? I mainly use it to dry the grill and tailgate plastic.

I paid 1300 for the whole package From the clean garage. The brand is Kranzle and the de-ionizer is from RV-mods. The Clean Garage had the pressure washer kit and the DI. I found a coupon code for 11% and got free shipping. No complaints about their services. I did add a hose reel after that photo from them.

Is hand jobbing your Raptor the same as hand washing?
