[QUOTE="ktmcolorado, post: 1485557, member: 30054"] I cringed watching this! Please, please, please DON'T ever do the initial rinse off with a pressure washer. Even using a 15 - 45 degree tip. You are turning that grit that's in the mud and dirt into a sandblaster spray. Will you notice it right away? No. But after many washes you will. Every time you do that you are damaging that clear coat. Use open garden hose pressure first to rinse off the top layer of dirt/mud. AND when you do use the pressure washer AFTER rinsing the vehicle clean always remember rule of thumb with pressure washers - if you can put your open hand in front of the spray without it causing pain it's safe for the paint. If it hurts you it will hurt the paint and decals. [/QUOTE]
