current setup:

rinse in water

scrub in sections with diluted turtlewax ICE and sheepskin mitt and rinse in second bucket

rinse and dry with microfiber waffleweave towels

used to use eagle 2 in 1 wheel cleaner (not happy with it) and turtlewax aerosol tire dressing (ok if I didn`t rinse it) bought black magic product to test them out

wax with turtlewax spray (there was a sale at advance auto parts)



I currently own (and trying to sell) a 2003 VW Jetta GLS AT which I am trying to sell. My goal is to purchase a Honda Fit.



I am a extreme beginner in carwashing with a limited budget. I come from a family that used dawn dish soap and old towels. I accept all comments, criticisms, and advice. :nomore:



I like the variety of smiley faces.:woot2:
