Guys,
The last time I let the dealership do a wash after service I had more of a sloppy mess. They splash water thru the rear window vents and spots the rear window.
Plus all the water marks inside all the jams and rear hatch.
Here is a tip I use with blue painters tape that save you time when you hand wash your own car.
1. Tape off the vents and rear spoiler mesh.( see pic)
2. After the wash you need to open all jams and clean and wipe.
3. I use a Meguiars spray detailer in between waxes.
4. I use Meguiars gold car wash...works great and good suds.
5. After done washing remove nozzle and skeet the water ( save on the micro fiber towels)
6. I don't have an air hose so at Costco I bought a 6 pack of air canisters for computers. They last a long time and are handy to blow out all the cracks.
Note:: My Ford GT had the same kind of areas that would take a lot longer to clean if I didn't tape off these areas.
