Maintaining that car show shine?
I am going to be heading about 1.5 hrs up in the mountains to Winter Park for Vettes on the Rockies tomorrow. I will be putting my car in the show and shine, so I will undoubtly be getting my car shined up tonight. However, I will inevitably collect a little road grime along the way. How do you all get that spotless finish back to your car when you arrive to a show. Thanks in advance.

With all the rain the mountains have been getting, you'll probably have more than "a little road grime" on it. Will be interesting to see what the attendance is at VoR this year.

To remove light dust=PEAK polishing towel(SUPER SUPER SOFT)
To remove rain+water+dirt=rinse/wipe down with microfiber towel/spray meguiars ultimate quik wax/spread on with microfiber towel 1/wipe off with microfiber towel 2, enjoy shine.
full detail=once or twice a year=Wolfgang twins/meguiars ultimate liquid wax

I use the stuff below and have had great results!!! I use it on my motorcycles takes the bugs off with no problem just make sure to have enough micro towel. I haven't actually put water on my bikes in 2 years. Since I have found this stuff.
