GrussGott always love these posts of yours and study them closely. Very very helpful so thanks a bunch.

Now that I finally have my car I'm trying to figure out the best method for me. I like washing my car, but I'm not willing to spend more than an hour a week doing it. And I can do it at home but my driveway is on a huge slope so it's not conducive to washing cars. I have a u-wash kind of place nearby so I plan to use that.

Here's what I'm thinking. Any thoughts/suggestions?

Supplies
- 2 buckets (1 car, 1 wheels)
- Rag Co. Cyclone Mitts x 8
- MF towels for drying (Rag Co. 365?)
- McKee's 37 wash
- Turtle Wax Flex Wax
- Schaeffer's Citrol
- P&S Brake Duster
- Invisible Glass
- Chemical Guys Tire Kicker (?)

Process
1. Rinse wheels
2. Clean wheels (P&S Brake Buster)
3. Citrol the front and let sit for a couple mins (if needed)
4. Rinse car
5. Spray with (the u-wash) car wash, let sit
6. Rinse car
7. Wash car (McKee's 37)
8. Combo dry and wax (TW Flex Wax)
9. Tire/wheel dressing (CGTK)
10. Blow dry nooks & crannies
11. Vacuum, interior, etc
12. Clean windows (Invisible Glass)

Also, couple (probably stupid) questions:
1. Do you use FW on the windows, wheels?
2. If so, Invisible Glass would just be on the interior glass, eh?
3. Is it worth buying applicator pads for the tires? Or can I just spray it on?
