My 2c on the residue....try not to wash in direct sun light.Hose down.Two bucket method.Hose down again.That usually works for me.The baby wipes are a great tip for the wood,and they clean the seats no bother too.
Your car looks brilliant,great pics.Safe driving.

Just don't try to save money by buying second hand baby wipes... the results are crap

(sorry, couldn't resist

)

Nice clean looking ride... good luck with the next one!

Nice! I think Titanium is the easiest to clean and it lasts longer personally. Depends on conditions obviously though.

You wouldn't believe how dirty my sapphire black is now.
What I would like to have now is just a couple non-rainy days. I hope the weather goes subzero soon so I can change my winter setup and hopefully keep my car clean again.

mine is white and it looks dark grey! just got back from p.a, drove out in the pouring rain sat.. the water kept washing the bugs off.. but car is a mess right now... and there calling for rain again!!! i cant get a break! hate my baby dirty

and our cars do ride better clean! lolol.. (even though were all slightly nuts)

I know what you mean. I see plenty of DIRTY black vehicles at the plant. Will be a loooong time before i decide to do Black AGAIN!

I dunno, I've always heard that once you go black, you can never go back. Isn't that true?
