Post Pressure washer w/ Zaino?

I can only pressure wash my car and am wondering if it was alright to wash with the soap they have at the car wash or will it kill the zaino? Thanks

Best way to test to make sure is buy a fish tank ph tester (or pool) and check the ph of the soap. If its around 7 then your fine. If its not then don't use it. Also don't use the brushes they have there.

Cool

my car has mutliple coats of Z 1, 2, 5, 6 and 7 on it.

i find that in winter months i use a pressure washer at local "texas" car wash with no problem.

i just use the rinse cycle no soap and rinse the car off from afar so as not to embed anything in the paint. i get up close and personal on undercarriage tires, wheels and wheel wells.

i just drive away and air dry.

it looks fine when it drys.

i give it a good bath and replenishment of Z 1, 2, 6 and 7 in the springtime first good day
