Mike, Great post. Strangely enough I have found Ultima's WW+ and a MF towel seems to work best for cleaning the dash and panels in the interior of my car. Go figure. Windows tires and wheels are still a puzzle for me.

Dave, After getting your post just to double check I backed my black semi daily driver 2012 Accord out of the garage into direct sunlight and could find no swirls and the car is 3 years old. Now a halogen light may be more revealing but if I can not see a swirl in direct sunlight, I am not...

I tried D114 at 128:1 and could not notice any difference other than the D144 had more of a tendency to run. If D114 gave me better results, I would use it on the whole car regardless of cost. I also believe it is better to clean the car and then wax rather than clean and wax the car at the...

I use about 1-1/2 qts of water (distilled water even better) in the bucket with the towels. The MF towels soak all of the water up. I actualy squeeze most the water out the MF towels before using them. So no D114 in the bucket. I was surpriised how good just plain old water is. Originally...

No not so far on my two black cars. It is all I use. But anything is possible, even with a foam plus 2 bucket method. Try it on a small panel on a daily driver and if there are no new swirls try it on more valuable cars. If a car has tar, sap or caked on mud you would be safer using a more...

Great idea, I will give it a try

I guess I am old school. I can not see how you can wash and wax at the same time. If you leave something behind (wax), then in my opinion some of the dirt is going to be left behind mixed in with the wax. I think it is much better to wash and then wax. When I do a rinseless wash I do it...

My experience has been that UPS picks up my order 2 to 3 days after I placed the order and of course more so if it involves the weekend and or holidays.

I am still like that. I tell my kids and even relatives to bring over their car and I will wash and detail their cars with them. They look at me like haven't you ever heard of a car wash and why would spend the day doing that ? Maybe there is something wrong with us vets. Maybe we like to...

Maybe we should have a review on courtesy towels. Who wants to donate their car ?

Outstanding

After reading your posts I looked up other threads on Ecotouch. I will pick a bottle up and try it.

What do you use for a dedicated wash mitt for tires and how do you clean it. Separate Load from your regular mf ??

We had our kids before disposable baby wipes and disposable diapers. You do not want to ask. I still have nightmares. On the serious side do you wash the dedicated towels in a separate load ? Anything special for detergent. Is the color black to hide the stain build up or light so you can...

Rod, I do not know, I got the black from my local Acura Dealer and the Silver from my local Honda Dealer. I pulled them out to see but the bottles do not say. Is your car's paint single stage or two stage (color coat and then clear coat)? If I had to do it over again on a clear coated car...

This mitt does not stain when you clean your wheels ???? Remember I have got daily drivers not garage queens.

Don't you have to wipe the wheels with something to get rid of the last bit of residue ? My experience has been there is always a little bit of iron and road grime left in the corners. I tried micro fiber pads but they would just turn black as well. Maybe the Megs non acid wheel cleaner puts...

Excellent Cart, I know the commenter was joking about adding a cup holder, but I am going to have to look at adding one. If for nothing else for a conversation piece.

To be honest, the reason I am trying different things is that I live in CA and due to the draught the days of using hoses and buckets may soon be over. I am certainly not advocating Huggies for cleaning wheels if you live outside of the draught area. Soap, brushes and a hose rinse is better...
