How To Use a Detailing Pressure Washer to Wash Your Car Properly

Let’s face it — there’s nothing quite like the feeling of a freshly washed car. The gloss. The shine. The compliments from mates. But if you’re still using a garden hose and sponge, you might be doing more harm than good. Pressure washing your car the right way is faster, safer, and gives you pro-level results without the pro price tag. In this guide, we’ll walk you through exactly how to pressure wash your car like a seasoned detailer — using the right tools, techniques, and a bit of the bigboi advantage. Why Pressure Wash Your Car? Pressure washing isn’t just about blasting mud off your tyres. It’s a smarter way to clean that helps prevent swirl marks and micro-scratches. The high-pressure rinse knocks off loose grit before you touch the paint, and when paired with a foam cannon and a solid technique, you’ll be left with a mirror finish that actually lasts. Best of all? It saves you water, time, and backache. Plus - It is a lot more fun - Exhibit A Below!  What You’ll Need Before you hit the trigger, let’s talk prep. You’ll want the right detailing gear to get that showroom finish. At bigboi, we recommend: A Detailing Pressure Washer – Something purpose-built like the WashR PRO, DUO, QUAD, or FLO depending on your budget and setup. Each model is dialed in with the right PSI and flow rate for safe and effective car cleaning. Foam Cannon – Attach this to your WashR and create that thick snow-foam layer that gently lifts dirt without scratching. Two Buckets + Grit Guards – One for washing, one for rinsing. Grit guards help trap the dirt at the bottom and stop it from going back onto your mitt. Wash Mitts – Microfibre or wool mitts are your best mates. Use one for the top half of the car, and a separate one for the lower panels. Wheel Bucket & Tools – Keep your wheels separate! Use a third bucket and dedicated mitts or brushes for rims and tyres. Drying Towel or Blower – A large microfibre towel works great, but if you want scratch-free drying, go touchless with a BlowR MINI or PRO+ MKII.  Ceramic Detail Spray – Once the car is dry, finish with a product like Quikki or Ceramic DetailR. These sprays enhance gloss, add a layer of hydrophobic protection, and help lock in that just-detailed look. Step 1: Start With the Wheels Your wheels are usually the dirtiest part of the car — full of brake dust, grime, and road sludge. Tackle them first so you’re not splashing dirt back onto clean panels later. Spray on a wheel cleaner like Reactive CleanR, let it dwell for a few minutes, and scrub with a dedicated mitt or wheel brush. Rinse thoroughly with your pressure washer. Step 2: Foam It Up (Pre-Wash) Now for the satisfying part — the foam bath. Fill your foam cannon with a pre-wash like FoamR, and cover the car from top to bottom. Let it dwell for 2–5 minutes to loosen up dirt, then rinse with your WashR. This is your “touchless” clean — it removes most of the grime before you ever lay a mitt on the paint. This step is critical to reducing swirl marks and ensuring you're not dragging dirt into your hand wash. Step 3: Foam Again for the Contact Wash Here’s a trick the pros use: foam the car again before your contact wash. This second foam layer acts as a lubricating barrier that allows your mitt to glide safely over the surface, minimising the chance of micro-scratches and swirls. While it may seem like overkill, this step makes a noticeable difference in both safety and results — especially on dark or soft paintwork. Step 4: The Two-Bucket Wash Now that your car is coated in a slick layer of foam, grab your wash mitt and get to work. Dip it into your soapy wash bucket, wash a single panel using straight-line motions, then rinse it in the clean water bucket before moving on. Work from the top down — the upper panels are usually the cleanest, so you’ll avoid dragging grit across the paint. And always use straight-line motions instead of circles to minimise the risk of swirl marks. Step 5: Final Rinse & Dry After you’ve worked your way around the car, rinse thoroughly with your pressure washer. Then, dry quickly using a soft towel or better yet, one of our touchless car dryers like the BlowR MINI+ or PRO+. Once dry, finish with Quikki Ceramic Detailing Spray or Ceramic DetailR. These detail sprays add hydrophobic protection, deepen the gloss, and give your car that slick, just-polished feel. Final Tips Always wash in the shade or on a cool surface Use clean tools — dirty mitts or towels = scratches Rinse your gear after use and let it dry properly Your Detailing Setup Matters Pressure washing is just one part of the bigboi experience. Whether you’re detailing once a month or building a full-blown studio, we’ve got a WashR, SuckR, BlowR, and D-IonizR setup for every type of garage. Ready to Upgrade Your Setup? Explore our Ultimate Garage Kits and take your detailing to the next level — faster, safer, and seriously more satisfying.

Meet the WashR QUAD: The Compact Pressure Washer with Commercial Power

Big things come in compact packages—and the all-new bigboi WashR QUAD proves it. After two years of development, rigorous testing, and a whole lot of detailer feedback, we’re proud to unveil our latest addition to the bigboi pressure washer range: a lightweight, enthusiast-focused unit that punches well above its weight. Whether you're an at-home car care fanatic or a mobile detailer in need of a reliable backup unit, the WashR QUAD delivers commercial-grade performance in a sleek, portable design. Why We Built the WashR QUAD When we launched the WashR FLO, it quickly became a global favourite. Then came the heavy-hitters: the WASHR PRO and WASHR DUO—built for full-scale commercial performance. But what was missing? Something in the middle. That’s where the WashR QUAD fits in. It's designed to fill the gap between entry-level and pro-tier detailing machines. A compact, durable, and high-performing unit tailored for enthusiasts who want more than the basics—but don’t need full commercial scale. Key Features at a Glance QUAD Pump Technology: A custom-developed 4-piston axial pump, delivering smoother operation and higher water flow than anything else in its class. 1600W Brushed Motor: Optimised for compact power delivery, balanced with long-lasting durability. 1050 PSI Working Pressure: Real-world pressure at the nozzle—not inflated max figures. 7.45 LPM Flow Rate: Delivers the volume needed for a proper, swirl-free rinse. Wall Mount Compatible: Easily integrates into your Ultimate Garage setup. Lightweight (8kg): Perfect for mobile detailers or weekend warriors on the move. Quick-Connect System: Includes everything—foam cannon, premium short trigger gun, 13m hose—all out of the box. All-In-One Performance Package Other brands give you a base unit and make you pay extra for proper accessories. We don’t do that. When you buy the WashR QUAD, you’re getting: A newly designed short trigger gun with integrated swivel, ergonomic grip, and compact build A 3-way adjustable foam cannon (vertical, horizontal, and jet modes) A 13m lightweight hose with quick connects—same hose used on the WASHR DUO Integrated nozzle storage Wall mount adapters to make installation seamless In short: nothing else to buy. This is everything you need for pro-level washing straight out of the box. How It Stacks Up The WashR QUAD is a true performance disruptor. It out-flows many commercial machines—achieving up to 8.1 LPM—with a more compact, lighter body. It holds its own against high-end units like the AR Blue and Krenzle—at a fraction of the cost. And thanks to our obsessive development process, you're getting a machine that’s: More powerful than most mid-tier machines Quieter and more efficient with its Total Stop System Certified to Australian electrical standards and backed by a 2-year domestic / 1-year commercial replacement warranty This isn’t just better value. It’s a smarter, more practical solution for serious car care. Built for Enthusiasts, Backed by Detailers Every part of this unit has been designed by detailers, for detailers. We know what works because we use it ourselves. From the size of the gun to the feel of the trigger spring, nothing was off-the-shelf. This is tailored equipment that performs. And yes—we back it. With our 30-day money-back guarantee, you can try it risk-free. Don’t love it? Send it back. But we’re confident you’ll keep it. Available Now in Australia The WashR QUAD is now available via our website, selected resellers, and retail partner Repco. Stock is limited due to demand and post-Chinese New Year delays, so grab yours before they’re gone. 👉 Shop the WASHR QUAD North America, Europe, and UK launches are underway. Specs may vary slightly in each region, and the US version will be sold without a trigger gun due to regulations—but we’ve got equivalent upgrade kits ready to go. Final Thoughts Whether you’re setting up your first serious garage wash bay or need a reliable mobile unit with punch, the WashR QUAD is your new go-to. Compact, powerful, and ridiculously well-specced—this isn’t just another pressure washer. It’s a bigboi.

Introducing the BlowR PRO & PRO+ MKII: The Most Powerful Car Dryers We've Ever Built

The wait is over. The iconic bigboi BlowR PRO and PRO+ just levelled up. Introducing the MKII series—featuring upgraded airflow, faster drying speeds, and more precision than ever before. These aren't just touchless dryers. They're the pinnacle of paint-safe performance. Whether you’re a pro detailer or a weekend warrior with high standards, the new MKII range delivers the most advanced BlowRs we've ever engineered. The Evolution of a Detailing Icon The original BlowR PRO launched bigboi into the global detailing scene—and has been a best-seller in over 40 countries for years. But after nearly a decade of success, it was time to push the limits. The MKII update keeps everything users love—twin motors, heated air, wall-mount options—but now delivers up to 450km/h of airflow thanks to a wider 55mm hose system and upgraded nozzle options. This isn’t a redesign. It’s a refinement of power. What's New in the MKII BlowRs? Upgraded Hose Diameter: Increased from 50mm to 55mm for more airflow with less restriction New Turbo Nozzle: Delivers tighter airflow for faster drying on panels and trim Boosted Airspeed: From 288km/h to an insane 450km/h (and we’ve clocked even higher in testing) New Front Housing Design: Streamlined to match the upgraded nozzle diameter and improve flow These changes result in more efficient water removal, better temperature stability, and a noticeably quicker dry—especially for coated vehicles. BlowR PRO vs. PRO+ MKII: What’s the Difference? Both models share the new MKII upgrades, but here’s how they compare: Feature BlowR PRO MKII BlowR PRO+ MKII Motors Dual Dual Hose 9m 9m Wall Mountable Yes Yes Remote Control No Yes Adjustable Air Speed No Yes Cable Management No Yes Wheels Included Yes Yes Still Built for Detailers, by Detailers While some brands repackage pet dryers with longer hoses, we don’t cut corners. The BlowR PRO range was purpose-built for car detailing, from the start. Touchless Drying = No Swirls Heated Air = Faster Evaporation Turbo Nozzle = Increased Precision Whether you're drying full body panels or chasing water out of tight gaps, these new BlowRs give you ultimate control. Why Upgrade? If you already love your BlowR, you’ll love the MKII even more: Faster drying on larger vehicles or coated paint More precision for trims, wheels, grills, and edges Quieter operation despite the power bump It’s everything you expect from a bigboi—and then some. Available Now The BlowR PRO & PRO+ MKII are available now in Australia and New Zealand, with Europe, UK, and North America stock arriving within weeks. 👉 Shop BlowR PRO MKII👉 Shop BlowR PRO+ MKII We built the MKII series to outperform every other detailing dryer on the market—and we back that with real specs, real upgrades, and real-world testing.

Meet the New SuckR PRO MKII and SuckR MINI: Power, Performance & Precision

Two New Vacs, Same bigboi Punch. At bigboi, we don’t just build detailing gear—we evolve it. That’s why we’re stoked to introduce two powerful upgrades to your car care arsenal: the SuckR PRO MKII and the all-new SuckR MINI. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a weekend enthusiast, these vacs are engineered to keep up with your workflow and deliver next-level performance. SuckR PRO MKII – Upgraded for the Long Haul The SuckR PRO you know and love just got smarter, tougher, and more refined. Here’s what’s new: Water-Resistant PC Board: Protected with a gel coating for added durability in damp environments. Stronger Remote Mount: Now comes with a secure rubber wristband clip to keep your 3-speed remote exactly where you want it. New Hose Hanger: Neatly stores your 5m hose with a side-mounted clip. Lockable Pivot Wheels: For added stability during use. Reinforced Latches & Improved Seals: Built to withstand the toughest daily detailing environments. The vacuum itself still features the same 22KPA suction power, 1600W motor, and a 5-metre hose designed to hold suction over longer distances—something most competitors struggle with. Filter Upgrades for Wet & Dry Work A key improvement is the move away from the paper-style HEPA filter. The MKII now includes a pool-filter-like element that handles wet & dry use more efficiently. For those running back-to-back jobs, we strongly recommend rotating between 2 or 3 filters to extend motor life and ensure top performance. Pro Tip: After wet use, empty the dirty water before heading to your next job. Running dry on a damp filter is a sure-fire way to damage any vacuum—not just ours. SuckR MINI – Compact but No Compromise Built for mobility and tight spaces, the new SuckR MINI packs serious power into a smaller form: 1400W motor with 22KPA suction 20L tank (dry), 30L (wet) Same accessories and 5m hose as the PRO, minus the pet hair remover It’s perfect for anyone looking for professional-grade suction without the need for extraction functionality. Lightweight, compact, and just as tough—this one’s ready to roll wherever you detail. Which One Should You Choose? Go with the SuckR PRO MKII if you want full wet/dry capability and extractor compatibility. Choose the SuckR MINI if you want a powerful, compact, professional-grade vacuum without extraction. Both units are built with durability in mind and share our signature 5m long hose for maximum reach without losing power. 📊 SuckR PRO MKII vs SuckR MINI: Feature Comparison Feature SuckR PRO MKII SuckR MINI Motor Power 1600W 1400W Suction Power 22 KPA 22 KPA Wet Capacity 14L 10L Dry Capacity 30L 20L Extraction Ready Yes (XtractR Kit compatible) No Remote Control Yes (3-speed) Yes (3-speed) Filter Type HEPA (wet/dry compatible) HEPA (wet/dry compatible) Noise Level <75 dB <75 dB Hose Length 5m commercial-grade 5m commercial-grade Tank Material Durable polymer with reinforced latches Durable polymer Dimensions (HxWxL) 65cm x 38cm x 49cm 62.5cm x 36.2cm x 47.2cm Weight 17 kg 15 kg Included Attachments Comprehensive set including pet hair tool Comprehensive set (excludes pet hair tool) Price RRP (AUD) $499 $399 Ideal For Professional detailers requiring extraction capabilities Enthusiasts or mobile detailers needing a compact solution Built by Detailers. Powered by Innovation. From Aussie garages to global workshops, the bigboi SuckR range is built for the real world. These aren’t just vacuums. They’re tools made for people who care about results.

How to Choose Detailing Pressure Washers

When it comes to car detailing, having the right tools makes all the difference—and a high-quality detailing pressure washer is at the top of the list. Not all pressure washers are created equal, and selecting one specifically designed for detailing can help you achieve professional results without damaging delicate surfaces. In this guide, we’ll break down what to look for in a detailing pressure washer, compare key features, and explain why wall-mounted systems are a game-changer for detailers and enthusiasts alike. What Makes a Pressure Washer Suitable for Car Detailing? Unlike heavy-duty machines for cleaning driveways or industrial areas, pressure washers for detailing need a balance of power and precision. Using the wrong type could damage your paintwork or fail to rinse dirt properly. Here’s what to look for: Certifications & IP Rating: Make sure your pressure washer is certified for safety, especially if you plan to use it outdoors. A good IP rating (Ingress Protection) ensures protection against water and dust ingress. Serviceability: Not all pressure washers are built for longevity. Some are pop-riveted shut, making maintenance or repairs impossible. Always choose a fully serviceable unit—like the WashR range, which only requires an oil change every 200 hours, has readily available parts. Specs & Transparency: If the manufacturer isn’t talking about key specs on their website, be cautious. Reliable brands proudly display their specs because they know performance matters. The WashR PRO MKII, WashR DUO, WashR FLO, and WashR QUAD all list detailed specifications so you know exactly what you’re getting. Max Pressure vs. Flow Rate: Max pressure (PSI) can help dislodge stubborn grime, but flow rate (LPM) is more critical for rinsing and cleaning efficiency. A higher flow rate ensures you’re not just moving dirt around but thoroughly washing it away. Attachments & Accessories: All of our WashRs come with a premium Foam Cannon—perfect for applying thick foam that clings to the car’s surface, lifting dirt before rinsing. You can also grab the full kit for a complete detailing setup. Comparing Key Features & Specs of the WashR Range To help you find the right pressure washer for your detailing needs, here’s a breakdown of the WashR PRO MKII, WashR DUO, WashR FLO, and the all-new WashR QUAD, along with their key features. Feature WashR PRO MKII WashR DUO WashR FLO WashR QUAD Motor 2000W (Peak) Induction 1500W (Peak) Induction 1600W (Peak) Induction 1600W Brushed Motor Max Pressure (PSI) True 1850 PSI 1400 PSI 2600 PSI 1050 PSI Flow Rate (LPM) 9.5 LPM max 8.5 LPM max 7 LPM max 7.45 LPM max Best For Full detailing setups, professional results Home enthusiasts, compact spaces Home enthusiasts, mobile detailers starting out Enthusiasts who want professional performance in a compact, lightweight unit Attachments Foam cannon, optional full kit Foam cannon, optional full kit Foam cannon, optional full kit Foam Cannon, 13m Hose & Gun Serviceability Fully serviceable; 200-hour oil changes Fully serviceable; 200-hour oil changes Serviceable; no oil change required Serviceable; no oil change required The WashR QUAD is an exciting addition, bridging the gap between consumer and commercial-grade pressure washers. It delivers professional performance in a compact, lightweight unit with Quad Pump Technology for smoother operation and efficiency. It's perfect for home garages, mobile detailers, or those who need power on the go without the bulk. Why Wall-Mounted Systems Are Perfect for Detailers For serious detailers and enthusiasts, a wall-mounted pressure washer setup is the ultimate solution. Not only does it save space and keep your garage organised, but it also improves workflow and ensures the pressure washer is always ready to go. Here’s why you should consider going wall-mounted: Convenience & Organisation: No more tripping over hoses or moving the unit around. Wall-mounted systems like those in the Ultimate Garage keep everything in one place for easy access. Durability & Protection: A wall-mounted system keeps your pressure washer safe from accidental damage. Professional Look: Create a sleek, professional detailing setup that rivals high-end detailing studios. Serviceability Matters: Don’t Get Trapped with a Pop-Riveted Unit Many cheap pressure washers are pop-riveted shut, meaning you can’t service or repair them. Once something breaks, you’re stuck buying a new unit. Fully serviceable machines like the WashR range are built for the long haul, offering easy access for oil changes and maintenance. Plus, our service centres ensure you have the support you need to keep your unit running smoothly. Conclusion Choosing the best detailing pressure washer requires attention to detail. Focus on specs, serviceability, and attachments to ensure you get the right tool for the job. Whether you’re a home enthusiast or a professional detailer, the WashR PRO MKII, WashR DUO, WashR FLO, and WashR QUAD offer reliable performance and durability. Ready to upgrade your detailing game?

Why Use a Car Dryer Over a Leaf Blower to Dry Your Vehicle

The Case for Car Dryers vs. Leaf Blowers Drying your vehicle is a crucial step in car detailing. While some might consider using a leaf blower for this task, it's important to understand the advantages of using a purpose-built car dryer, like those in the bigboi BlowR range, over a leaf blower. Let’s explore why a car dryer is the superior choice for drying your vehicle. Precision and Performance Designed for the Job Car dryers, such as the BlowR BUDDI Jnr and BlowR PRO MKII, are specifically designed for drying vehicles. They are built to deliver a powerful, controlled stream of air that effectively removes water from every nook and cranny without risking damage to the paint or other surfaces. Leaf blowers, on the other hand, are designed for yard work and may not provide the same level of precision and control. Filtered Air One major drawback of using a leaf blower is that it blows unfiltered air, which can contain dust, dirt, and other contaminants. Blowing these particles onto your freshly washed car can cause scratches and swirl marks. Car dryers use warm filtered air to ensure that no debris is blown onto the car's surface, providing a safer and cleaner drying process. Safety and Convenience Heat Control Car dryers come with adjustable heat settings, which help to evaporate water quickly and efficiently. Leaf blowers do not have this feature, meaning you might have to deal with leftover water spots or streaks. The controlled heat from car dryers also helps in reducing drying time, making the process faster and more effective. Ergonomics Using a leaf blower for drying your car can be cumbersome due to its weight and design. Car dryers, on the other hand, are ergonomically designed for ease of use, reducing strain on the user. Their compact design and lightweight nature make them perfect for maneuvering around the car without hassle. Protection and Durability Specialized Nozzles Car dryers come with a variety of nozzles specifically designed to reach difficult areas, such as mirrors, grills, and badges. Leaf blowers typically come with a single, wide nozzle, which may not be as effective in reaching tight spots and can blow air too harshly, risking damage to delicate parts. Water Repellency and Paint Protection Drying your vehicle with a car dryer helps to maintain the water repellency of your car's finish. For vehicles with ceramic coatings, like those that use bigboi’s Hydrophobic Foam, this is crucial. The gentle, filtered air ensures that the protective layers remain intact, enhancing the longevity of the coating and preserving the paint's shine. Professional Results Consistent Performance Using a car dryer provides consistent results every time. With features like adjustable speeds, heat settings, and specialized nozzles, you can tailor the drying process to your specific needs. This level of customization is not possible with a leaf blower, which is designed for a completely different task. Endorsement by Professionals Professional detailers prefer car dryers over leaf blowers for a reason. The bigboi range is trusted by experts for its reliability, performance, and the professional-grade results it delivers. Whether you're a professional or an enthusiast, investing in a car dryer is the best way to achieve a flawless, scratch-free finish. Final Thoughts... While a leaf blower might seem like a quick and cheap alternative for drying your vehicle, the benefits of using a dedicated car dryer far outweigh the convenience. From filtered air to adjustable heat settings, car dryers are designed to protect your vehicle and provide superior drying performance. To get the best results and preserve the pristine condition of your car, choose a bigboi car dryer and experience the difference for yourself.
