H8R Proof Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 I washed my car this morning at the crack of dawn: I love-love-love my lamb's wool wash mitt - sooo soft! Used a chamois pad to dry and was very impressed. Used long strokes to dry and ZERO lint left behind! Yeah! I used my garden hose for the "sheet" method of rinsing and I can definitely understand the concept. Products used: Eagle One. (got a mini-detailing kit to try the stuff out - not bad). Thanks everyone for all the advice and tips - my car looks great. I can't believe I ever trusted someone else to wash my beloved car...

H8R Proof Posted August 30, 2003 Author Share Posted August 30, 2003 Me too! Not sure why I used to think it was too much of an ordeal to do it myself - after all it's just the hood, trunk, top and doors! :) I did notice some water spots that won't come off - any tips? (I'll do a search in the meantime)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 What type of water spots? Did you clay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H8R Proof Posted August 30, 2003 Author Share Posted August 30, 2003 Well, I don't know what "type" of water spots...just noticed them on the trunk and on the hood. I didn't clay. The Clay intimidates me and I'm afraid to try it on my own. It sounds complicated... :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW03ES Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 Naa the clay is easy! The clay will probably remove the water spots. If not they're probably etched into the clearcoat and it'll take an abrasive to remove them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
