How to Make Homemade Car Wash Solution

How can you make your car look great on a shoestring budget? Try this do-it-yourself car wash solution. This cheap and simple recipe is every bit as good as those sold in the automotive department of your supermarket.

Things You'll Need

• 1 cup dish washing liquid
• 3/4 cup powdered laundry soap
• 3 gallons hot water

Instructions

1. Mix the dish washing and laundry soap in a large bucket until the powder is completely dissolved. Using hot water will make it dissolve completely.

2. Use more water if you think the solution is soapier than you need. Use a little less water if your really dirty car needs a good scrubbing.

3. Wash thoroughly with a sponge or soft rag. You can use this on the windows, hubcaps and tires.

4. Rinse quickly and thoroughly so the soap doesn't leave a residue on your car. Dry with a chamois or soft towels. Wax if needed. Your car should sparkle.
