    i just gave mine a real good hand wash since i'm visiting my parents and I have nothing better to do. waterspots arent really a problem, i just wash it in the shade or wait til the sun goes down a bit getting the bugs off the front though.. yie!

    I took some pictures today even though my car is only 3 weeks old and all stock. tomorrow i'll still post em incase anyone cares.. tomorrow im gonna try and get some with my other car and my old mans car (98 mustang cobra and 69 mustang mach 1)

    I find the car really easy to wash cuz it doesn't have a lot of little "nooks & crannies" & the sides are completely flat and the water just beads away.

    my tips so far:

    WASH in shade or at dusk -
    BUY the Absorber -
    GET Meguairs Quick Detailer spray
    USE Tire gel not spray
    USE scotch brite pad on exhaust tips -(DOESNT SCRATCH!)
    WASH the FRONT BUMPER REALLY WELL
    WAX/POLISH WINDOWS, WINSHIELD, HEADLIGHTS!

    umm actually its really a nice chamoi. Its just called the abosrber because that was their company's attempt at being original .. Works really well, and holds up alot better than a natural chamoi. It comes in a tube and it feels like rubber, super absorbent! ill take a pic tomorrow of it!--joe :)

    The absorber works madd wonders i tell ya...i like it much better than a regular chamois... I'd suggest getting whats called The California Water Blade...its basically a window wiper..but yea..i "wipe" away most of the water off the body of my car..then i get the little spots of water left over w/ a chamois or the absorber....
