The right wash.   For no scratches, marring or water spots.

The tools... 

Garden hose with cold water and adjustable nozzle. 

Good quality liquid car wash soap...(like Eagle One or Meguiar's)

100% Pure Sheepskin mitt

One cheap wash mitt  for the wheels

One semi stiff scrub brush... (for tires)

Two wash buckets. One filled with soapy cold water, the other with cold water for rinsing your mitt.

Microfiber waffle weave towel for drying or a white 100% cotton towel (Cannon or Fieldcrest brands)

Steps:

  1. Park your car in the shade. Never wash in direct sunlight.
  2. Using high pressure from the garden hose rinse down the entire car from top to bottom (knocking off the dirt, mud, etc.) Wash the wheels and wheel wells last.
  3. Starting with the soapy sheepskin wash mitt, wash the roof, rear window, trunk, rear end, and drivers side top to bottom last, soap up as needed. Use only back and forth horizontal wiping motions (as the wind flows.) No circular motions.
  4. Toss your mitt into the rinse bucket. Grab hose... mellow out the spray and rinse what you have just washed.
  5. Grab sheepskin mitt from rinse bucket, squeeze out, soap up and wash the remainder of the car from the passenger rear quarter panel to the front grill, do the windshield and hood last. (Always rinse and soap up your mitt if begins to look dirty.)
  6. Rinse entire car.
  7. Take your rinsed sheepskin mitt and hang somewhere to dry. Grab your other mitt, soap up and wash your tires, wheel wells and rims. Use the brush if needed. If you have very expensive wheels, or ones that may scratch easy, then do them separately and gently.
  8. Rinse the wheels. Rinse your mitt and hang to dry. Throw out bucket water. Never use on another car if you are washing more than one. (Always start fresh.)
  9. Dry the entire car with the Microfiber waffle towel, using a back and forth motion. Wring out when water logged. No circular motions.
  10. You are done.
