Hi!
I live in Finland and usually my car gets very dirty during mild winter days in town.
I'm used to use solvent sprays as a prewash. I spray the solvent on car's body, let it affect 1-3 mins and then I rinse it.
I've found some very effective solvents that are meant for a prewash the body and to clean engine bays etc. For example this Korrek Solventwash Lensitil BR is very effective. Korrek is a Finnish car care product family. When I spray it on, I can see how the wax flows away in few seconds. I use Turlte Wax solvent spray as well.
Waxing the lower panels (where I use the solvent washes) after every wash wouldn't be a problem for me, but how do you see it, is it safe to regularly use a body solvent? Could it harm the paint/clearcoat in any way?
Any other good tips to get the most of grit off before touching the paint? I can see my car shampoo (Turtle Wax Big Orange) used with Gilmour Foamaster doesn't do the trick.
