    Default OMG You use the foam brush on your 1986 535i? Now with bumpers!

    Is foam brushing bad for it or something?

    If you post on bimmerforums a photo that shows using the brush... Everyone will FREAK!!! Apparently they would NEVER use a foam brush on their 1993 325i. They only hand wash with a double lambs wool mit which they never use more than one time. They toss it afterwards.

    It really is hilarious!

    Nice...I never use the foam brush on the Supra.

    I have washed so much mud and random bullshit off my other cars and it really makes me think what all that brush has been through lol.

    Yea, I usually check the brush out. If there is left over soap or debris in there I usually use the high pressure rinse really quick to clean it out some. Haha.

    NEVER USE TEH BRUSH!

    TEH BRUSH IS FULL OF SKANK PARTICLES.

    so unless you like that sort of thing, just take a bucket and a rag or something lol.

    car looks sexy sir, and pics look good as usual.

    Apparently it swirls your paint, but practically everything does unless you are using microfiber.

    I really don't care though. Gets my car clean really fast and easy.

    Nice car.

    Washing cars with a bucket and rag ftw.

    But funny pics and story about the foambrush freakouts lol.

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    I use the foam brush on my 99 M3 as well. Will also use it on my new vert!

    I am not a huge stickler for detailing. If I had Random's Supra I might think twice

    Yea I can relate. I'd use it on my 97 accord but not on my vette. I use mircofiber cloths - reuse em a couple of times and then downgrade em to tire-cleaning cloths before I toss em. They're cheap anyway.

    You just used it to say F U to the bimmer crowd - I'm gonna post a link to this on bimmerforums
