Any other Black CL55 owners?
Hey guys,
Been driving the car now for a few hundred miles and its time for its first wash. I tried searching the detailing forum, but im not sure what is the BEST method to wash a black car and avoid swirls from the start. The finish is beautiful and I want to keep it that way. If you have any tips or advice, or products to use, please help me out. Thanks!
P.S. A Chevy Camaro SS tried toying with me on the freeway and was abruptly put in my rearview mirror. (later gave me a thumbs up) This car is great :p

you are kidding right? No need to search, there are EXCELLENT washing instructions as a sticky thread at the top of the forum. I follow this technique and our cars have very minimal swirls, if any.

Thanks, just wanted to confirm that was the best technique.
