deionized water
"...I will never wash a car without it. That is deionized water or some sort of deionized water system. I think it doesn't get talked a lot about because there's no real, like, good system to use."
Deionized water is special water that doesn't have minerals in it. This means it won't leave marks on your car when you wash it, making it look cleaner.
Deionized water is water that has had its mineral ions removed, making it less likely to leave spots or stains on car surfaces after washing. It's often used in detailing to achieve a streak-free finish.
pressure washer
"Number two on that same vein is a pressure washer."
A pressure washer is a machine that sprays water very hard to clean things. When washing a car, it helps get rid of dirt and mud more easily than just using a hose.
A pressure washer is a high-pressure mechanical sprayer used to remove dirt, grime, and other debris from surfaces, including vehicles. It can make the car washing process more efficient and effective compared to traditional methods.
foam cannon
"...you pair like a high quality soap, that's actually helping you clean the surface of the car, like the super-soaper in your foam cannon with your pressure washer..."
A foam cannon is a tool used to wash cars. It sprays a thick foam that helps clean the car's surface by loosening dirt, making it easier to wash without damaging the paint.
A foam cannon is a device that attaches to a pressure washer and sprays a thick layer of foam onto a vehicle's surface. This foam helps to loosen dirt and grime, making it easier to wash the car without scratching the paint.
