I have tried your splashing method last saturday. Really less water beads left on the body. But gotta buy a better scoop haha...i used ice cream container LOL

Ice cream container a bit soft and no where to hold. Get one actual scoop, RM1 to 2 only each.

Less water balance, easier to dry, right?

Well then try the 2 buckets method. Last time I was like you too. I used 1 bucket for everything hahaha then I came to know this 2 buckets method and tried it out.

I dont know how much it helped to prevent damaging my car, but one thing that keeps me using this method is that when I use 2 buckets method, the water in the bucket with shampoo is a lot cleaner than it used to be. The rinsing water in another bucket will get very dark haha !

Try it out! The rinsing bucket doesnt has to be the same size as the washing bucket. I'm using a bucket which is 3/4 of the washing bucket

Helps a lot, since you already mention rinsing water is very dark. If not your shampoo solution becomes dark/dirty and you will keep making it dirtier and this is use to wash your car.....

Some even use grit guard in the rinsing bucket to trap bigger dirt. Grit guard keeps the water at the bottom of the pail from being stirred up, so bigger pcs of dirt settles at the bottom stays there.
You can DIY by using the plastic sieve like this....

Find one that can fit your bucket bottom....

One thing, you might have to weight it down as grit guard are heavy and sinks. The sieve may float....

Why such name exist? Bo-Hai? Letter of consent no need la, cuz i got confidence in you guys haha!
I ask the lady liao, she said location where? Bear in mind I think her car is a good practice for us to restore, 5 years old car but look like 10 years old car condition. Never polish/wax before.
Always exposed to sun. Even her dad thought of sending it for repaint. Ladies...

My kelisa older age than hers, also look newer, but mine of course previous owner repainted some parts before.
