Nothing special ... I spend more time keeping the wheels polished than washing the car.

I use eagle one car wash, and I like it more than meguiars and mothers.

i wash my car with bottled pierrier and soap made from endangered elephant bones. i use a sponge made from a rare breed of sponge that only reproduces once every 200 years. finally i dry it with a chamoise made from the leather of tiger cubs.

do you also wax with the same child slave manufactured, hand-milled brazilian carnauba blended in a baby seal oil base as i do?

its the bad stuff in the water that leaves the spots, it works, I want to sell mine b/c it takes off Zaino, but it will not strip off normal wax, I did my dad's f150 and it looked so nice and his truck is black, no spots at all, it filters all of the water so it dries and there is no spots

5.00 to anyone that wants to buy it b/c I pay too much for the Zaino to come off

Use two buckets, one for the soap water (zaino), and the other bucket to rinse the dirt off the towels. Use one towel for the roof, and the top part of the car. Use the second one for the bottom part of the car. Then i use the California Water Blade to get most of the water off, then the Absorber to get whats left, and finally a 100 percent cotton towel to get everything. Then if i feel like it, ill put on a coat of zaino. For the inside, pretty simple. Leather cleaner, and vaccum. For the windows, i use just a clean cloth and Invisible Glass.
There might be a future for you in Porsche ownership - sort of like a secret society for those that are analy retentive - and I mean that in the best way.

My version-
Call culligan and get a water softner at your house.
Turn the hose on stun - rinse the entire car off
Turtle wax car wash soap
100% cotton sponge/mit
top to bottom
windows
Small sections - rinse mit in soap water
If there is dirty section - then rinse the mit with the hose then dip in soapy water
Behind wheels next
Wheels last
rinse thoroughly.

Dry windows and top first, paint sections next, then door jams.
Wheels last with seperate towel (100% cotton, tags cut off).

Step back and admire...
