" ... I used to use regular car wash soap with a microfiber mitt, garden hose, and two bucket setup to clean my car in my driveway. ... Forget about filling up two buckets, using grit guards, and soaking cloths like some of the other reviewers have outlined. ... Use a clean dry microfiber towel folded in eighths to wipe each panel in one direction, refolding and exposing a clean section of the towel with each wipe. ... The residual Optimum that's on the towels acts as a detergent booster and the towels come out perfectly clean, unlike any my microfiber towels that I've used with other car products in the past. ... If you're looking at this, you obviously care enough about your car to invest the time to clean it by hand, so that's really not a lot of time. ... "
