| I generally start by making sure that the inside of the car is clean and then move to the outside where I wash, and wax the car making sure that each and every part is cleaned well and that nothing is missed. |

| I use in this order. I wash the car and wheels first, or cause i'll spend all my time with polishes and waxes i'll have it done up the street (10 bucks and the guy does a kick ass job all by hand!!) Poorboys SSR 2.5 Poorboys SSR 1 Poorboys EX-P (is this where some of you folks use Vanila moose?? whats that do in the process?) Toppers include Nattys Nattys Blue Nattys Red (new hotness yet to be delievered) Pinnacle Souvern Paste wax (wow factor times 100) Collinite Insualter wax number 645 maybe, just bought it today for the DD cars that should last 2-3 months. Jurys out till I try it!

| ok heres my 'special' version for the time concious (takes piss all time) -use a house cleaner hose attachment and fill with car wash detergent -use a damp sponge like u normally do just without a bucket (hose it off if it gets excessive dirt on it) -pressure spray the car (good time to clean wheels) -spray car with maguires quick detailer while its still wet... this product is insane, its the best thing in the world! -chamois off the car like usual(the water helps the quick detailer spread and work better even though it says to use it in a completely different way!) -clean the door sills with a damp and a dry cloth(as well as boot) once or twice a month i clean engine bay and about once every 2 months i polish and wax using as i said above a mechanical device if you use the quick detailer during the weekly washing regime then you will notice that you probably dont need to wax for about every 4-6months but i just get bored sometimes...
