Do you have a wax on your car? I use Griots garage brilliant finish in my foam cannon, and optimum car wash in my 2 bucket. The Griots garage is pretty good, especially since you can get it at Autozone and places like that. The optimum stuff tho is incredible, and it isn't expensive. It super smooth when you use it and leaves your car super glossy. I've used the Chemical Guys soaps (honeydew and citrus wash gloss) and I wasn't impressed with either. After I wash with optimum, I dry with duragloss Aquawax. It literally requires no extra effort and adds another layer on top of whatever you have. You just spray it on while you dry (the car it still wet) and it leaves your car glossy and it makes it bead even more. It's pretty cheap also.

I'm curious to see how others in this sub wash and dry microfiber towels, drying microfiber towels (the ones that hold crazy amounts of water), and wash mitts. I usually just throw my normal microfiber towels in the washer with the appropriate detergent & dry them with low heat. But I am wondering if anyone has experience washing & drying the microfiber towels which hold very large amounts of water. I’m referring to towels such as The Double TWISTRESS & the PFM Terry Weave Drying Towel. These can hold several pounds of water. I’ve just purchased these types of towels & I am wondering do you folks just throw them in alongside the other normal microfiber towels?
Regarding the wash mitts, I usually throw mine in with the microfiber towels, but I have a specific wash mitt that I use just for the wheels. Is it safe to also throw this in with my other microfiber laundry load, or is there a risk here of contaminating everything else?
Lastly, on a slightly unrelated note, does anyone have a tip for how to clean dirty wheels/rims? I just purchased a specific wheel wash (AMMO Brute Wheel Soap), I was earlier using Optimum Car Wash. Using that, even with the Mother’s Wheel Brush & boar hair detailing brushes, I could never really get them 100% clean. I am hoping the new wheel soap helps. I also tried using Chemical Guys Premium Wheel Cleaner, but it comes out in such thick globs I can barely get even coverage. I want to try applying Gelee Wheel Protectant, but I am afraid to apply it since my wheels never get fully clean. Not only can I see the dust & grime, I can pick it up with microfiber towels.
Anyway, thanks for reading and thanks ahead of time for the help!
I enjoy Collinite 845, Optimum soap, drying aid, for my dash, doors interior, and vinyl on the outside , wash mitt , drying towel , interior and exterior microfibers great for buffing wax and dust on the interior. And if you want that shine and to keep the integrity of your clear coat I would wax every couple months, depending the quality of the wax you decide to go with.
