My last mustang ended up with light swirls in the paint and I’m not convinced it’s only from taking it to the car wash. I hand washed it 70% of the time but I still always felt like I was scratching the paint. I want to make sure the same thing doesn’t happen on my new mustang, so for those of you who hand wash your vehicles, I’d love to know what products you use (like what sponges, soap, towels, etc). and what your process is like. Do you re-use sponges and towels or do you use new ones for every wash? I ask this because I feel like I could never get my sponges 100% clean and free of debris after washing the car. I also wonder if washing the towels in my washer and dryer was enough to rid of any debris as well.
I’ve also seen a lot of talk about using leaf blowers to dry instead of towels. Is this actually a smart and effective idea?
This is the soap I’ve used.
Three sponges I’ve tried: This one, this one, and this one.
I can’t find the exact towels I’ve used, but they were green, made by Turtle Wax, and sold at target. Probably similar to this.
Are any of these actually good, safe products to use or would you advise against them?
