In Reply to: Soap matters.... posted by Rod M on June 11, 2017 at 18:59:44:
I have not ever washed a car with soap and water.
(when I say ever, I mean as an adult owning my own car)
I rinse the car off with a hose, and wipe it off with my HAND while rinsing it, That is it.
Usually I 'wash' my car if it is already wet. Like I just brought it in after driving while it is raining, or snowing. I will then rinse it off. and use a 'California Water Blade' to strip off 95% of the droplets. and park it.
If I wax it, I wax it a day after I washed it as I do.
I usually try to wax once or twice a year when a car is newerish. (first 6-7 years)
When my Contour SVT was old, I just ignore waxing it, and when it hit ten years, I skip washing it.. I have wiped the hood off (of my 10 plus year old car) though, if the hood was wet. LOL
