Soap or water first?

[RockyTop]

What goes in the bucket first? Soap or water and why? Sounds silly I know but until today I never heard of putting water in bucket then the soap and this technique comes from a very reputable person..... .

I've always put the soap first.

What came first, the chicken or the egg?

Do you measure the amount of soap or guesstimate?

I put a bit of water in the bucket, then add soap while more water pours into the bucket until close to full.

I think adding it while the water is running gets the most suds.. thats all I do.

I tend to put the soap in first because then when I add the water it tends to "stir" up the soap making more suds. Some may do it different but this way I can really "shake" up the soap and mix it well with the water.

Thanks for the input. I was just curious how the rest of you do it. I'm sure everyone has their own method.
