Key Techniques for New Employees

• Two-Bucket Method: Use one bucket for soapy water and another to rinse your mitt, ensuring you never put a dirty mitt back into the soap.
• Straight Line Cleaning: Use straight, back-and-forth motions instead of circles to avoid creating swirl marks on the paint.
• Wheel First: Always clean wheels first as they are the dirtiest, keeping brake dust away from the car’s clean body.
