I have just found this website, what a wealth of information. I will be ordering the Autopia Guide today. I have a great deal to learn. I have always just used a dirty sponge and brush to clean my cars and trucks in the past and then drive real fast to dry them.



I just purchased a 2002 Ford Excursion and want to keep the beast looking good. What a large vehicle to start with. My Excursion is White by the way.



I am going to order the whole line of Zaino products to strat with.



Do you use the glass cleaners on the inside and outside or just the inside?



Also I need to order towels, burshes, mits, dusters, and all of the other equipment. Is there 1 good website to order from? I want many items put would like to order from 1 place as this will reduce my shipping charges. Maybe even a good started kit with a CA Duster.



Let me know your thoughts and I look forward to reading all of this wonderful information.

now i use a microfiber towel. i used to use 100% cotton terry towels. spray on wipe off. in hard to reach areas i spray directly onto the mf and then wipe. i find that i need to do this in some shade to prevent streaking.

Read Davids book first, then you`ll get an idea of what you`ll need.

You may find after first purchase, you want more..then more...there are some post that tell in detail of their stepsA-Z with products mentioned..

Im at the point were I can wait for sales, discounts or group buys to save money....
