You still use water? Only after a rain maybe. But for the most part, California duster, detailer, spray wax, buff. I use Maguiar's products and microfibre cloths

That's exactly it OldBlue! Last time I had the car out it rained.

I'm a fan of the duster, and turtle wax black box quick detailer and spray wax. Always use microfiber cloths and towels.

Can't wait to get it paint corrected and ceramic coated.

Yep! It's a paint protectant. You can literally pour water on the car and watch it bead right off. Great idea for a show car like my SS.

Yeah. There's a few companies that make it. CQuartz is pretty popular company who makes it too.

There's a local shop who does paint correction and ceramic coating, so once I'm done ripping the front bumper on and off for different mods, I'm getting it done on the SS.
