You will always have to wash the car to get everything off of it. Look at the corners of your windshield (where wipers don't reach) after a no touch wash or power wash . Thats whats on the car.
Love this thread

As stated, you will have to use a wash mitt to totally remove all road grime. The foam gun just makes the wash process faster, easier and with less fear of scratching the cars surface. The PPF and ceramic coating will absolutely boost the hydrophobic properties and make drying the car super quick and easy!

I have an upgraded Adams foam gun but have always wanted to get the foam cannon, but not sure about going through the whole pressure washer thing......
Get a foam lance and pressure washer if you have the space... you won’t regret it!

I now have CQuartz coating so I basically am using their products, Elixir and Reload.

Before the CQ treatment I was all in on Gyeon products. Still use several for interior. Their washing and light ceramic coatings like Can Coat are great products. Consistent and perform awesomely. Their leather cleaner and conditioner are still in my garage.

Very nice guy and their products are excellent! I purchased the Foam gun as well, used it with the Car Shampoo and the outcome was amazing. I have about 10 other products I picked up that I still need to try. Perhaps in a couple weeks. Here's some pictures of my purchases and the outcome of using just the Adams car shampoo, tire shine and microfiber towels.

I went off the rails and watched to many YouTube videos. Landed on Obsessed Garage and ordered his combo... https://www.obsessedgarage.com/colle...nt=43359773699

Here is what is included. This is a solution for regular, rinseless, and waterless washing. He uses all three techniques depending on the circumstances
  • A 16oz Bottle of Adam's Car Shampoo
  • 1 Gallon Refill Bottle of Adam's Car Shampoo
  • 4 Microfiber Madness Incredimitts
  • Optional Upgrade to 4 Incredipad XL Wash Pads
  • 32oz Bottle of Optimum No Rinse for doing rinseless washes
  • An 18oz Spray Bottle of Opti-Clean Waterless Wash
  • 32oz Refill Bottle of Opti-Clean Concentrate for making more waterless wash
  • 1 32oz Bottle of Bead Maker
  • 1 Gallon Refill Bottle of Bead Maker
  • Optional Microfiber
    • 26" x 59" Large Waffle Weave Drying Towel x 4
    • 16" x 16" Door Jam/Trunk/Underhood Towel x 10
    • 16" x 16" Small Edgeless Drying Towel x 10
It was a late night and I still not sure what the hell is a waterless wash. Doubt I will do that unless I get educated how that can work and why.

I don't know about PPF. To me putting that stuff on a car reminds me of my crazy old aunt who had clear plastic covering her sofa and lamp shades. However, I can tell you about my experience with Adams Graphene coating, the stuff in the little 60ml bottle NOT the stuff in the spray bottle.

I put it on my Panamera last summer and I haven't touched my car with a cloth or mitt since then except to use some bug remover on the front bumper once in a while during love bug season. My touch-less wash routine is to rinse with clear water using a high pressure washer followed by a foam cannon. I let that sit for two minutes or so and then rinse it off with high pressure clear water. Then I dry the car with a leaf blower, wipe the door jams with a micro fiber cloth, and I'm done. The dirt literally rinses off. It's my first experience with a "ceramic" coating and I'm highly impressed.

In addition the normal accumulated road grime (even when driving in the rain) is greatly (and I mean greatly) reduced. The car just stays much cleaner. And when it's time to wash, the routine is a pleasure rather than a chore.

Very nice set up. Pro tip, wash the towels in soap only, no scents or softener, and low dry them first - they will perform better. Also, they actually work best slightly damp.

I have a better question.

When are people driving their cars if they're doing all this washing and waxing.
