I did some searching around for winter washing techniques and such and while I did find useful info, the one thing I can't find locally is a coin-operated car wash within reasonable distance, or one that will be open in the winter. I remember the last time I wanted to use one in the winter a few years ago, they said they shut them off for the winter. I also do not want to turn my driveway into an ice-skating rink either, and we also shut off the hoses for the winter.
Now I'm toying with ideas on how to keep my car clean throughout the cold weather and winter. So far it seems like, yet again I will be signing up for a monthly plan at a hand car wash, that uses mitts that look somewhat like the merino ones and I do not let their brushes touch my car. The only problem I see is that it seems like they use the generic microfibers which I know will give me swirls.
I guess for the winter time, I'll put a coat of wax on the car or something to give it a little extra protection and when the warm weather comes again I will give it a full-out detail?
What do you guys think? Anybody ever face the same issue?
