Before using Black & Wrap Shampoo, as always before washing with manual shampoo, we carry out a thorough pre-wash with “Foam Gun Prewash”.
To learn more about this phase, we invite you to watch its dedicated video.
- After the pre-wash you can proceed with the manual car wash. We suggest using the two-bucket washing method (one with the shampoo / water solution and the other with clean water only) in combination with a microfibre glove such as our Double Face or a sponge / pad such as our Microfiber Pad. To wash the rims and tires use an additional tool (sponge or glove). To learn more about the double bucket washing technique, we invite you to watch the video dedicated to cleaning accessories.
- Using the grate in the bucket helps remove dirt and impurities from the glove or sponge by making it settle to the bottom of the bucket.
- Let's proceed by preparing the water and shampoo solution: dilute 4 caps of the product in 8L of water (1: 300) in a bucket.
- Now let's proceed with a thorough manual washing, washing one panel at a time, always in the shade, with the vehicle wet and starting from top to bottom.
- At each panel, rinse the wash sponge or mitt in the bucket containing clean water. Frequently rinsing the glove or sponge because coarse dirt particles remain trapped in the sponge itself and could have an abrasive effect or worse create scratches on the paint, in the following steps.
- We work one panel at a time, paying attention to the cleanliness of all components, including logos, and details. The high lubricating property creates a slippery surface that allows the glove to slide without the risk of creating mini scratches or swirls.
- We complete the washing on the whole car without ever letting the shampoo dry on the bodywork.
- Take some time to complete this operation calmly: performing it carefully, you will get a better result and speed up the washing operation because you will not have to perform further steps to cover forgotten areas or correct mistakes.
- We rinse the vehicle with high pressure water.
Its formula rich in mineral sequestrants allows to drastically prevent the formation of limestone stains (waterspot) during the drying phase, leaving the surface purified. drying phase we recommend using our ultra-absorbent microfiber cloth “Super Dryer” for quick and effective drying in total safety.
Our advice is to use two Super Dryer drying cloths: one dedicated to the bodywork, another dedicated to glass, in order to leave the latter as dry as possible. You can also use Super Dryer to finish profiles or delicate details. In addition, when you dry the side of the car or the lower parts, fold the drying cloth to prevent it from touching the ground, collecting dirt that could create scratches.
To learn more about the drying technique with Super Dryer, I invite you to watch the video dedicated to washing accessories.
Black & Wrap Shampoo is a real 2 in 1 shampoo: It guarantees washing and deep cleaning in a gentle way and at the same time a decontaminating action, rejuvenating the paint and the adhesive coating film, eliminating dirt, even the most persistent, deeply and delicately.
