for the whole time i've owned my car i would just wash the car down with some water, get some soap on it, scrub, rinse, and dry. now that i have seen what a good detailing job can do to the car, i want in.

what products would guys suggest? (soap, wax, etc.)

any tips for a beginner?

anything else i forgot? tell me

 

I just point everyone to the "Car Washing for the Non-OC" thread that's stickied at the top of this forum.

After that, if you have questions, have at it
