Cleaning a car - help!

Such a simple task...

But how do you do it? I usually use the hose and spray it, then put some (cheap) shampoo/wax stuff on, and then hose it off. But then there's loads of soap suds and marks so I have to wipe it with a cloth, and yet it stills look a mess.

How do I get rid of the soap suds and marks left?

How do you clean yours/your parents?

I do basically the same.

Hosing it down after washing it with a sponge with the was/shampoo should get rid of the suds?

Then after you've done the widnows with a shammy go round the car and quickly wipe it with the shammy to get rid of any marks/excess water.

I can't see how the water wouldn't get the suds off, you might want to get some better shampoo if it is leaving marks.

Because of the car drying, i wash part by part. Because if it drys, it looks smeary. So I shapoo part by part, then wash of with cold water. After i have done all of the car, i wait for the windows to dry, then get some "glass cleaner", dont use window lean. And clean up the windows.

Then when it's done it looks like this...

Yeah, I think when I start to drive and I get asked to wash it I'll cut my losses and take it to the car wash!

Methinks we need better car shampoo. I was told we were given the stuff by my uncle (who kept it really clean) but I've just been told mum brought it. So yeah, it's probably that.
