- so I'm guessing rinse with water from pump, soap it, then rinse again, then dry?

yes unless you want to fill it up from home and bring it with you to the car wash but of course that would be a big no no.

fill up both buckets with water, put the soap in one bucket and use the other bucket to rinse the dirty water out of the sponge so that you don't keep using to dirty soap water on your car. i think i'm saying that right.

DON'T USE CHEMICAL SPRAYS ON YOUR NISSAN CLEARCOAT PEARLCOAT OR METALLIC COAT! NISSAN COATS ARE ULTRA SENSATIVE TO CHEMICAL WASHES. U WILL WEAR YOUR PAINT FINISH QUICKLY.

I WOULD JUST USE REGULAR ARMOR ALL CAR WASH SOAP OR ITS EQUIVALENT.
BE careful with your detailers and chem based soap. And no high chem bug removers either!

this goes for ANY nissan vehicle with the above mentioned coats
