I only use a hose and soap when the car is really filthy.
And if it is too dusty for a 'California' duster, then I use a wet wash
mitt (no soap), and just wipe it down, and follow with a towel (soft
cloth, and do sections at a time). This cuts way down on the water
spots also.

Why does a slight tax increase cost you $200.00 and a substantial tax cut saves
you $30.00?

When I was driving my 66 every day I washed it at least twice a
week if it needed it or not. But I live up a dirt road so it
needed it. I did a 67 442 Olds for a guy a few years back and
since it left my shop he claims it hasn't seen water since. Myself
even after I get my 66 done, it will see water and a wash mitt if
I deem it nescessary. And when I stop showing it and start driving
it, it will probably get washed a whole lot more due to the long
overdue floggings it will recieve!!
