Nice. I use the pressure washer first, before using soap and a sponge, because if you just rinse it and use the sponge, the dirt/sand is still on there, and you are making scratches... just saying ;)

Understood.  Sponges will hold onto grit.  That's why they use a microfiber mitt and rinse it thoroughly before they go back into the soap bucket for each area of the car.  Not faulting your method but a pressure washer can drive water into areas that might have a tough time drying out and subsequently inviting the dreaded "R" word.

I ment a moderate pressure washer, like the ones @ the carwash, not a 120 bar pressure washer :P 

 

( That's what they do also before your car goes into an automatic car wash... )

 

 

I agree the microfiber mits are better offcourse...
