when we washed helos in the navy, wed 1st rinse w water from the top down, then wash w a strong detergent, real strong....starting from the bottom and working up to avoid a concentrated stream of the detergent from running down the plane and drying up in the sun or itd be hard to remove.....1 guy would keep the scrubbed areas wet as we moved on washing....
when rinsing, same deal, we'd rinse from the bottom up to the top so the soap that would form a concentrated river running down the panels would run over wetted areas as it left the plane rather than running over a dry or drying panel....
failure to do so would lead to what he describes....a white film on the vehicle where it ran down...and it was a PITA to get off....meant re-washing the plane.....
keep it wet, dont let it dry in the sun....try to use a proper auto wash rather than a strong detergent...let it run down a wet panel if ur in the sun...
