I just spent an hour washing my truck with a special soap, a water filter that sofens the water, & a special mit. After that i came inside & took a 7 minute shower using generic shampoo, hard water, & a rag.
I plan to spend another 3 hours at least today cleaning omy truck's outside. I will use a special "cleaning" liquid, then a polisher, then wax. Then I'm going to wash it all over again so it doesn't have weird dust lines. *sigh*
