[quote="supergrover"] [quote="john w"] Nice and shiny but lose the sponge and chamois leatheror it'll be covered in swirl marks in six months time[/QUOTE] So what do you suggest for washing and drying? Microfibre cloths? I must admit that our current car is a mass of swirls, especially obvious when clean and in sunshine... [/QUOTE]
For me washing is , snow foam then hand wash using 2 bucket method and micro fibre washmit. For drying I use a 'Woolly Mammoth' micro fibre towel. Its 3' x 2'. Place it on a panel and dab rather than wipe dry. To finish polish using foam applicator (machine twice a year) and then wax, buffing with micro fibre cloth.Might be excessive but keeps it looking like new.

I use the 3 bucket method as I'm not tall enough to reach the centre of the roof on an SUV
