I am going to do my first wash tomorrow. I want to use this.

But I want to make sure I use a nice sponge or cotton mitt. What do you use to wash it. Like what actually touches the car?

 

I use a Sheepskin Mitt on most of the car. Soft sponge for dirty areas like rocker panels etc.

 

The autodry works great. Invest in some high quality microfiber towels.

 

So do you wash the car with the microfiber? Because when you use the autodry, you don't need to dry it.

 

I use a small piece of microfiber, too, for actually washing the car.

 

I strongly suggest everybody uses the car care forum. if can be a great resoura if people use it and we get it active. I've been trying to boost activity there but it hasn't worked thus Far

 

What is a good brand of microfiber? Not sure about availability over here.

 

Good point.

 

ill definitely be coming back to this thread in the spring when i need to wash mine or even before the car gets here soo i can have everything ready

 

McGuires Cleaning Kit! Works Great!!

 

Meguiars all the way! I don't have the cleaning kit, but I do use their NXT Gen Car Wash and Wax as well as theeir Hot Shine tire spray. Their quick detailer is very good also.

 

well I just got through washing with a chanelle mitt and the Mr Clean kit I mentioned above. It looks spectacular.

 

I get mine from Target.

 

I use "The Absorber" to wash and dry along with Meguiars cleaning products for all my cars.

 

Good rule of thumb--If you wouldn't rub it on your face, don't rub it on your car.

I use Griot's Garage car wash. Like it alot. I have a mitt from them, too. Very, very soft and nice.

 

I use the Meguiars NXT car wash soap, a wash mit, and the absorber to dry it. I have a microfiber towel for after I run it down the road and water flies out of the hidden spots in the front and rear bumpers.

 

Don't use Mr. Clean AutoDry (from my experience). It leaves a film on the paint and under light you can see it and the imperfections it leaves despite the fact that there are no large water spots.

Use some Meguiars NXT or Gold Class Shampoo.

 

I use autodry, a pressure washer(on gentle) and a sponge and meguiars quick detail wax. Shes puuuurty. Gets washed weekly or biweekly if it rains.
