Also in Phoenix, and I will never stop praising the Optimum No Rinse! Been using it for about the last 1-1.5 years, and it's wonderful being able to wash the car in the garage!

I got lazy yesterday and didn't do it. What's your wash method?

But then the one time you or anyone rubs up against it, scratches from all the dirt caked on. lol. Good theory though.

I put warm water in 2 buckets (one for clean water only and one for dirty water--always wring the water out of the wash mitt into the dirty bucket).
Put a bit of the No Rinse in each bucket, then a quick, gentle wash on one body part at a time. I dry each body part after I wash it using a waffle towel, and repeat :) Super easy!

And it hides all lil scratches if there's a thin enough layer of dust. ;) :P
I tell myself this since we can't wash our cars in vancouver because of strict water restrictions since it barely rained here since May...

As long as my red paint still shines in the sunlight...it's all goooood! :bellyroll:
