Nicely done!
As long as it is not a degreaser, having soap dry is much better than allowing water to dry on the vehicle.
Not mine, didn't need anything major. Just a bit of love and some protection.
Had a few spots of tree sap but they came right off with some IPA.
It was 34°F when I got started and about 40° when I finished. Once the sun unfroze my hose it's game on!
As long as you're using a quality PH neutral soap there is no danger in letting it dry. Rinsing again or doing the contact wash will reactivate it and it will come off when you dry the car.
That said, I get around the car pretty quickly.
You're a man of my heart. Looks great!

Looks great. When that first picture popped up I thought I was looking at the aftermath of a weird snowstorm that somehow missed everything around the BMW.

Again... great work. It's a great feeling to see the fruits of your labor and the happiness it brings the recipient/customer.
Looks good
I'm just happy to be making money doing what I love to do.
Word of mouth is spreading and business is picking up. I've had a couple of enquiry's from the local airport and I'd like to shift my business there for the most part.

Man, you said right there. "...happy to be making money doing what i love to do." Period/full stop.
Yeah, I abandoned the wash a panel, rinse a panel method almost a decade ago and went to one wash, one rinse. Any water that dries on the vehicle while you're finishing would leave spots, whereas if soapy water dries on the vehicle it can be rinsed off in one shot at the end without leaving spots.
Nice car, nice color, nice work.
I do 50/50, with the side in the sun washed and rinsed last.
