Take pride in your ride. Whether you’re a company driver, owner-operator or fleet owner, the cleanliness of your tractor and trailer will showcase your professionalism to other motorists, law enforcement and customers.
We’ve shared previously semi-truck interior cleaning tips, and now here’s how to wash a semi-truck exterior, for both primary methods: by hand and at a truck wash facility.
Depending on your role and any company policies, you can use a self-service truck wash or wash your truck at home. Either way, the method is similar:
Layers of road dirt can build up over time. By quickly spraying your truck, you can save scrubbing time later and get a better feel for which areas you’ll need to focus on.
Use warm water and a professional automotive/truck soap rather than detergent or dish soap to make sure it doesn’t damage the paint. Depending on how dirty the truck is, you may want to do one side or area of the truck at a time.
Use a soft wash mitt and/or foam brush to scrub in harder-to-reach areas. You may also want to use an extended brush to avoid having to use a ladder.
Wash the soap and dirt clean. Again, you may want to do one area of the truck at a time to avoid the wet soap dripping off the area you’re cleaning or starting to dry too soon.
