[Healeys] washing my car

[Jean Caron]

Ira,

I am sure you will get a variety of responses on this one. You have worked on this car for a long time and now it's time to enjoy it and I am sure you do.

I wash mine in a car wash most time, lot easier to get the small stones out of the rear fenders area, dry it with a chamois and microfiber. It's a car, no matter what you do, eventually it will get swirls in the paint, there will be stone chips, scratches etc. just enjoy and drive.

If I wanted a car to look at, I would have bought a model of it and put it on the mantle at home.


Jean

So this will sound weird, but I have not washed my car since painting it 5 years ago. I  had not really been driven. I have put about 15 hours on it since the end of Nov and my lower rear wings have road dreck and the rest of the car is dirty. Not trying to ask the best oil question here, but I guess its pretty close. What should I use to clean my car with?

Thanks all
