I use a product called Wet Paint. All I ever do is just wipe the heavy dust off with a Calif. Car duster and then put the Wet Paint on and wipe it off immediately. I also use it on the windshields and bugs just slide off with the swipe of a damp cloth. I have never used soap of any kind on any of my cars, but then mine aren't show cars either. The Wet Paint leaves a very slick and high shine. I can do a whole car with it in about 25 minutes and the Cobra was less as it was smaller.

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Best stuff ever. I bought it based on your recommendation and some reviews I picked-up around the internets. Cleans everything. Chrome is a mirror, glass is streak free, paint looks wet. No need to wash, polish, wax any more!!!!

CRABS?

Dang I knew there was going to be challenges washing with this group.

Windex most of the time. There has been a few trips to the self wash in town when there have been some mudpuddles.

Keep in mind we drive our car; it is going to get dirty. Road oil and grime take a bit longer.

Recently, I found vinegar and water worked on some pipe challenges.

Crabs - hmmm...
