Hey! I was just wandering how does everyone get their car washed? By hand or through the car wash? What kind of car wash soap do you use and how do you get your car waxed? Yourself? Or hired some one? By hand or power tools? What brands?

Griots is expensive, but AWESOME! I want to eat their blue spray on... whatever it was... It smelled like a blue Icee. Nomnomnom...

I use Meguires (God that name looks weird if you type it too much or think about it) Ultimate wash and wax for washing. All hand wash for me (unless it's winter).

For wax, I use either Zymol or Meguires Ultimate. I also use Meguires Ultimate Compound and Polish.

Process:
Wash
Compound with a orbital buffer
Polish by hand
Wax by hand

Results in: (Wax on this was Zymol)


That being said, I still have yet to do that to my Celica. Lmao... I cared about showing my Camry more than this car. This car is all business as where the Camry was all glam. Granted, there is an auto show coming up on the 28th that I'll be attending and showing the Celica at... so you better believe it's getting the full treatment.
