due to my back op. ( thats healing very slowly), the CL has not been washed for 4 weeks.
Its not hideously dirty, washed the day before my Op.
I wondered is it OK to Snowfoam, with. Valet Pro PH Neutral, and then really powerwash off well, (I mean give it a real sustained blasting off .. not too close but more a serious volume of water) ; then rinse with filtered water and blow dry.
OK it wont be squeaky clean, but I assume it will stop the dirt/pollen dust building up.
My only concern is I wont be able to physically follow up with a wash off with a wool mitt and Autoglyms ... ergo to be sure all the snowfoam is completely off.
What do you think?
At this rate it will be at least another 2 or 3 weeks before I am up to doing the washmitt part all over.
My gut feel is, being an Industrial Karcher (its 610L per hour) and Valet Pro is allegedly PH Neutral, it must be better than leaving it unattended for 7 weeks.
I suppose I could after rinsing the Snow Foam, by re foam it with Autoglyms, as this foam lance would foam it ... but hopefully dont need to do the second stage.
I guess the question is, is Valet Pro really PH. Neutral. I dilute it 2:8 whereas VP say 3:7 so my solution is a tad weaker.
