Best site anywhere with respect to auto detailing. They'll lead you in the correct direction for washing, waxing, protecting, etc of any car


Best way I found (and this may vary from person to person). Wash with a good auto wash, lots of suds. I use a 100% cotton mit to wash. Rinse the mit in a seperate bucket and make sure everything is out of it before going to next panel. Wash from the top to the bottom, maybe even using a different mit for the bottom. Dry with micro fiber towels, done.
Best of luck

STAY AWAY FROM COTTON - If you have a high gloss finish, it will scratch it.

Use a Lambs wool or microfiber mitt.

Cotton has caused me more head aches than anything....
