Especially when your car is black

Went through a automated one when I first got the car, swirls all over it.....

I wash it in my driveway, WOAH, it's FREE.......sure, it's a pain in the ***, but someone's got to do it (pops always helps, woo hoo!)

Quarter carwash where I live is a $1 a cycle so it is a whopping $2 to wash my car in about 7 mins and it takes about 5 more to dry it. At home after dragging everything out it takes like 20 mins to wash the car 5 to dry and 30+ mins to do the rims. Highpressure washer at the carwash does the rims in about 30 secs. So for the sake of efficiency the quarter carwash is best as long as you wash out that damn foamy brush like someone else said. No swirls here.

i sprayed my car with fresh cold water like every 3 days just to keep it clean and fresh, and to remove the salt (in the winter) under the wheel well. dont want stains to stain on.
