Best way to wash your car is to not wash your car.

Here's my system:

1) Use California Car Duster frequently to remove dust.
2) Use Meguiar's Ultimate Quick Detailer regularly to clean.
3) Clay car to remove embedded particles.
4) Apply Mothers California Gold Pre-wax cleaner to remove all previous wax.
5) Apply one or two layers Meguiar's NXT Tech Wax 2.0 sealant (yes it's a sealant)
6) Apply two thin coats Mothers California Gold pure Carnauba Wax.

Repeat 1 & 2 several times a week. It only takes about 15min.

Repeat 3 thru 6 about every three months.

Never need to water wash the car using the above process. Unless you get caught in a rain storm.

That only works in Arizona. Not something you could do here in Illinois.

I drove the Camaro last week and it had actual mud on the side of the car and I have no clue where it came from.

Plus I no longer park my cars if it's going to rain. I bought or built them to drive. I really don't want the next guy enjoying my car like I should have.

I really like mothers products but I dont dig Maguirs. Its a little too thick to apply and take off. Mothers is very smooth and much easier to use. I use to use this stuff called BC2. Worked great. I cant remember who makes it tho.

I've been using some of Adam's products lately and have experienced favorable results.

As for actually washing cars I switched to using good brushes vs. a wash mitt 10+ years ago and won't go back.
