How do you all keep them clean (I mean regular washings, not just detailing once in a while). Hand wash, touchless wash, auto wash, other?
How do you wash your Maser? Poll

Like Kevin - $2.00 at the local u-spray-it. Never use the brush, though - you never know what might be lurking/stuck in there. Also, finish off by drying with a chamois. And remember to make sure the chamois is plenty wet or you'll get swirls!

Wash one a week by hand:
P21s rim cleaner
perls soap and a mitten
wash off, then a trickle wash to remove most water
dry with a damp microfiber towel.
drive the car down the street, clear the rust off the brakes
dry the balance of the car with the microfiber.
re-wipe the rims using a damp towel to clear off the brake rust dust.
Once a month I was using P21s.

Ditto my Supra has scratches from that stupid ass brush. Just get the car detailed once a month and besides that the $2.00 at the local carwash, it's easy and efficient. No reason staying out in the driveway for 45 minutes gathering up materials, unless you enjoy washing the car.RickBullotta said:Like Kevin - $2.00 at the local u-spray-it.

I go to the car wash and get the $35 "express detail" once a month since I live in an apartment and have no hose. But last week I was staying at a home and could wash it by hand. I used dish detergent and the water stopped pooling on the car...it was like I had washed all the wax off. I won't do that again...

I have a 2000 QP Evoluzione. I bought it recently but I have known it for all of its life. I
It has almost always been washed with a few capfuls of Mer polish poured into a bucket of hot water, and hosed with regular pressure water (not jet washed). After 5 years paint remains perfect.

The idea of using Dawn IS to get the wax off. It is the once a year super clean. Haha has been listening to Sunny at the Ferrari forum it seems ;-)squid said:
