anything Else????

 

If you have a black car you definitely need to get a Grit Guard. Also, I would switch out that microfiber wash mitt for either a genuine sheepskin mitt or an Edge ShMitt.

I'm not really a fan of "wipes" products in general either.

 

I'd use at least 2 wool mitts, and if you feel daring try out the shmitt.

I have one and it's made all my previous wool mitts into dedicated wheel mitts.

Also get a grit guard or two.

aerospace protectant for the vinyl (top, dash, etc)

Also, if you just got her, you'd probably want to put some wax on there. I just put on some collinite 845 for the winter and it's very easy to use and gives a decent shine.

 

damn mickeyc strikes again

 

what is grit guard?

So

-Change wash mitt microfiber for Edge Schmitt

-get aerospace protectant for the vinyl (top, dash, etc)

what should i use for the seats?

 

definitely do not use the mf wash mitt... they do not unload well- so i agree with the above.
also take pics after and post em up. then pm me for your wash n wax badge!

 

dang, that's a good amount of swirls already on your car!
