Well, I think its the whole mentality of it. If you have a dirty room, you got a dirty room so you have to step over things. When you got a dirty car, you are literally sitting in the filth.
Hey there are people who think the same way I do....lol

^ I like the armor all spray, the wipes tend to leave white lins around. Well, far as Im concerned, when my car isn't clean in or out, I dont feel right.

Thanks guys... i'd been using the Honda spray and it cleans good but leaves the inside kinda dull... not to mention...it's kinda expensive and i go through about a can every other week.

I heard Armor-All is crap. Does no good for leather. I use black magic. Def my favorite and it smells good to.

The Mr. Clean Auto Dry carwash works like a champ, the wife got one for Christmas and it just set in the corner until I gave it a try. I must say that I was really surprised how well it worked. Don’t get me wrong, if your car is dirty enough to need a power washer then it’s not the thing for you, but if you keep your car clean almost all the time (every day it’s not raining) then this gadget is a must. Cuts the cleaning time more then half, and my old @ss hands cant ring out a rag like I used to, so the spin cycle for some damp towels (for the small spots so you can start a little faster) and Mr. Clean is the way to go.

After you get all done waxing, go over the finish with some connoisseurs dry gold wipes for a totally insane shine. I get mine in WAL-MART. You can use them on your tail lenses also.
