[runamuk]

Yeah same in WA... we only have sprinkler restrictions.

there are no water restrictions in regards to washing your car.
id never go to any sort of car wash

If your using purified water then you wont get water spots so should be ok

Thanks man

Where i live i have heard of little ****s putting rocks in the brushes. i have never and never will. i have tank water so i'm lucky

Yeah mate that sounds about right...I learnt the hard way with the brush. You'd have never seen a white car with such noticeable swirls

And on that note, I don't have much paint left on my car! I'm seeing blue on my bonnet creases from where there's hardly any paint. Respray soon...

Yeah DONT use the brush.

If you can take a micro fiber mitt and a sealed bucket of quality wash solution (you can buy buckets with lids from the hardware shop)

can I ask what brand mitt or cloths you think is best for each surface (interior, exterior etc? i use different sorts of microfibre cloths at work for windows/interior/polish but i'm actually not sure what brand they are as they as supplied by my employer.

[Mrk_Mickey]

Any brand should be fine mate, as long as it's the right material for the surface you're working on.
