I have always used a sponge from the local parts store but I am guessing that is a big no no. My car is black so what will be the most gentle? Brush? Mitt? anything else? Thanks

many people favor a 100% cotton chenille wash mitt. There certainly are a LOT of choices out in this type of mitt.

Does any of this thread (http://www.autopia.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=21196) help you?
Also, have you read the e-book?

Thanks...I will have to look at that e-book. I have a lot of reading and looking around this site to do I guess. :up

Right on! :up (Lordy, lordy! I guess I`ll never escape being a child of the `60s.) And, by paying the $9.95 to download the entire book, you`ll be helping to provide financial support to Autopia so the Mayor can continue making more nifty upgrades. :xyxthumbs And "Contributing Member" will appear in your profile. How`s that for multiple benefits?

Might I suggest a Brillo pad?
No, really. :p

2001civicex- When the "what to wash with" question comes up, I always plug the Griot`s Garage Boar`s Hair Brush. Rinses clean, doesn`t scratch MY cars (most anything CAN cause washing-related swirls for one reason or another). There`s a thread or two out there somewhere where we REALLY beat this to death. The smaller brushes Griot`s sells are GREAT for cleaning nooks and crannies, the boar`s hair wheel brushes are also great.
BTW, your input on the "...get in shape" thread got lost during the site`s technical problems. Yeah, you boxers know how to stay in shape (and how to take/deliver a hit!) :xyxthumbs
