Car washing

Hey all,
Was wondering if you guys had any tips on washing my baby! What supplies do you guys use? and do you have a wax preference? I also was wondering if you knew of a better hard watter softener than what i use ( the rain x one).
Cheers!

Read in the cosmetic section.

optimum no rinse, can be added to your regular soap/water solution or used alone

Definitely use 2 buckets. One with suds and one rinse the dirt off. I like Mother's products, but, I don't think it matters that much as long as you don't use dish washing soap. Use soap made for use on cars.
