When you wash your car, make sure you have a soap that will not damage the paint. Dish soap can damage the paint. I buy a soap made especially for car paint.

I have just one question - have you ever tried to wash a car in Texas with cool or lukewarm water in the middle of the summer? I think it's gonna be happening. LOL Good thought though.

Hi, I really recommend a Mr. Clean Auto Clean. It is so easy, quick and not spots or drying! What a time saver! PLUS you can do the outside of your home windows with the same great gadget! No streaks, no spots, no drying!

Since I'm short, I discovered that the long-handled swiffer duster (with "used" duster attached) works great - just get your soap solution ready, dip the duster into the solution, and - voila - instant lilttle soft brush to get the soap on the car's paint - and best of all - I can reach the roof of the car with the long handle. Hope this helps!

Preserve your car's finish by washing it with cold or lukewarm (never hot) water.

When washing your car, drive it onto your grass, you'll be watering your lawn, killing bugs and getting a clean car all at the same time!
