Each car owner wants his car to look "one hundred percent" and was a matter of pride. And this is impossible if the car will be covered with a layer of dust and dirt, or if on a clean body there will be terrible divorces.
Some motorists trust washing the "iron horse" car wash, others - no. And those, and those have many arguments, and we will not decide the dispute between them. Let's just say that a mini-wash kerkher for washing the car, when properly used, can ensure the cleanliness of the body, in no way inferior to the work of professional car washers. And in the future, it will save you a lot of money.
So, you have become the lucky owner of any kerkher car wash model. Suppose you carefully studied the instructions and now you know how to adjust the water supply of the device, how to connect it to the power grid, and what to do so that there is no air in the pump . Suppose also that you know how to use the kercher.
Than wash?
It's time to take care of the selection of a means to wash the car, because it is one of the key moments in how to properly wash the car with a kercher. You can choose from:
- car detergents in five-liter containers;
- special shampoos;
- soluble detergents in tablet form.
The principal difference between different cleaning agents may not be, although it would be wiser to give preference to Kärcher shampoos. For contactless cleaning, the products of this company with the RM marking are suitable. This can be RM 806, RM 809, etc. However, when choosing autochemistry, carefully read what it is intended for. So, for example, RM 57 is a means exclusively for foam washing. In addition, some products are concentrates, so they must be diluted in specified proportions.
Another subtlety, which is not known to everyone, is the hardness of the water, which you will wash the car. If the water is very tight, Kärcher shampoos can be ineffective, and it's better to take a professional DIMER tool.
Also, the machine will be cleaner if your machine has a special foam nozzle, because it helps to get rid of dirt more efficiently.
How to wash?
If you started washing the car on a hot summer day, we advise you to drive it into the shade and let the body cool down. The fact is that because of the heat emitted from the body, the water evaporates quickly from the surface, and the detergents just do not have time to act to the end. Specialists of the company Kärcher advise to apply detergent to a dry car, not having treated it beforehand. The problem is that this approach is suitable for not heavily soiled machines. If on your car there are clots of dirt, clay, bitumen, salt, - remove them first thing.
Then it is necessary to apply the detergent composition to the dry car. For this, you can use either a foam nozzle or a conventional household spray. The body is covered with a detergent from below upwards. Dirt from below will start to swell, and shampoo from above can not roll down.
Leave the car for 5-10 minutes. It is not necessary to keep the cleaning compound longer - during this time it manages to do its job. Then my car is a kercher: we direct the water jet to the body and wash the dirt from the bottom up. At the same time, make sure that the nozzle is not more than 10 cm away from the car's surface.
After water procedures we take a rag from artificial suede and wipe the car dry.
Manufacturers of washing machines Kärcher assure that the quality of washing is in no way inferior to the professional. The opinions of the owners of the device on this account vary. Some believe that washing kercher can only serve as a preparatory stage for subsequent manual washing, while others do not agree with them and argue that the quality of washing depends only on the correct selection and use of detergents.
