I cleaned my Corvette the other day and did my girlfriend's Corvette yesterday. I used the "Meguiar's Waterless Wash & Wax" - which is pretty good stuff. It is great if the car is a bit dusty and doesn't have a lot of road grime on it.
Love your bright red 'Vette. Save the wave!!

I used a car wash by my house for the last 2 years with my Audi TT - unlimited plan....really a decent deal I thought...unlimited washes for the year for 600 dollars. Well the corvette is to low for them so gave my membership to my mother and now hand washed the corvette twice now. Not to bad but will be a bummer when gets colder and does take about an hour vs 5 minutes.
I have watched about 6 videos on how to wash a car so learning some interesting ideas. Have about 3 brushes for the tires now and compressed air and few small brushes.
