What Do You Use to Clean a Semi Truck?

Semi trucks, also known as 18-wheelers, are large commercial vehicles used to transport goods across the country. They require regular maintenance and cleaning to remain in good condition. Cleaning a semi truck is a time consuming task, but it can be done with the right supplies and techniques.

To start, you should gather all the necessary supplies. This includes a power washer, detergent, brush or broom, bucket for soapy water, rags for drying and wax for protection. A ladder will also help you reach higher spots on the truck.

Once you have all your supplies gathered, you can begin cleaning the exterior of the semi truck. Start by spraying off any dirt and debris with a power washer.

Pay special attention to tires and wheels since they often accumulate mud from the roads. Once you’ve sprayed off all dirt and debris, use detergent mixed in a bucket of soapy water to wash the entire exterior of the semi truck. Use a brush or broom to scrub away any caked-on dirt or grime.

After washing and scrubbing away dirt from the exterior of the semi truck, use rags to dry off all surfaces. Once everything is dry, waxing is recommended to add an extra layer of protection against dirt and grime accumulation in future cleanings.

Conclusion:

Cleaning a semi truck is an important part of its upkeep. With proper supplies such as a power washer, detergent, brush/broom, bucket of soapy water, rags for drying and wax for protection it’s possible to keep your semi truck looking like new.
