I love the micro fiber but also the wool. Keeping the engine bay clean is also a great time! LOL

I've washed my car two or maybe three times I've owned it in a year and half. I just keep detail spray in the car and it stays clean.

It helps I don't ever drive it bad weather at all. It's just a toy when I feel like driving it but I do drive it a lot more than I have my other toys. I've put a lil bit over 10,000 miles on it in 15 months. Considering I owned my 93 Cobra 7 years and only put 7,000 miles on it that is a LOT of miles for me.

I enjoy detailing which is a big part of it. I'm just as happy in the driveway spending a full day detailing it only to just to put it back in the garage as I would be going for a drive.

Some people see it as a lot of work to keep a car really clean. It can be if you don't keep up with it, but if you do it's super easy. Keeping a fresh coat of wax on it is important. Also, keeping some microfiber towels and detail spray in the car keeps it looking nice. If you drive through some water, just take a second to wipe off the bottom of the fenders/quarter panels instead of letting it dry. Don't park under or near trees to avoid tree sap. Don't leave bird shit on to dry. Common sense stuff really.
