Spray shine wipe down and cloth baby diapers...

Wait, you never wash your car? You only use clear coat scratching quick detailer sprays? Im assuming your car has 100% coverage PPF?

That wasn't very nice. Adam @Fireman1291 is my adopted nephew. I get to give him a bad time.

Just giving you a bad time. Enjoy!!!

 

lol I'd love to see a closeup of your paint…that you've never washed. Use a LED flashlight so we can count the swirls! It'll be fun!

 

Instead of belittling a new owner, help him out. All he asked for was some car wash advice.
If you washed your kali low-rider with Tamba Bay water and a mop and dried it with an old pair of Levis, it is your business.

I have not wash my car in 7 years and here’s a close up shot of where it gets dirty the most and I drive it all the time with 86k plus mile on the clock. I just use quick detail spray and a microfiber cloth to apply and another microfiber cloth the buff.

Figured him for a troll given the whole Ferrari owners wipe their cars with diapers thing…

 

In detail world it used to be used discard cloth diaper was the best. Now microfiber is all you see. New diapers are rough.

 

Do adult diapers work just as well. Asking for a friend.

And does your "friend" have an ED problem too?

 

No, but MY friend really wants to know where to buy XL Condoms in bulk.

I'll send him a link to my supplier!

 

Oh...so you really are asking for a friend. I wasn’t sure before but now I am

He sounds like quite a character...incontinent was above average manhood. What a catch!

 

I don’t know how you can go without washing your car. Mine gets covered in dust within hours of being outside.
I probably wash mine almost as much as I drive it. Maybe 1:4 ratio.

 

Forgot how much I loved their albums and movies. Where’s Sister Mary Elephant when you need her?

 

Sorry to be off topic, but is that a Koenig euro spoiler? My dad’s 85 GTS QV had a deep spoiler and it was a perennial PITA on Chicago streets.

 

Yes, that is the Koenig Special front spoiler/balance and I had it repaired 3 times already and now I’ve learn how to be careful with them. Agreed, they can be a PITA depends on the road condition but luckily most of the road here are well paved.

 

No need to apologize. LOL Adam is a nine-month Ferrari owner with very strong opinions. You asked an honest question, he jumped you multiple times. Not a warm welcome.

You are going to find a wealth of information on your Testarossa all over the forums. Apply filters wisely.

And yes, even the subject of a post-drive wipe down rituals will result in an argument given enough time. Always have fun always!!!

Enjoy your car!!!

 

A simple google search on car detailing myths will show that diapers are one of the top 10 myths that need to go away. Not sure where it started, but have heard it for as long as I've been alive so that's 50+ years. Guessing a very long time ago people would grab whatever was around the house that felt soft. Funny that we are still having to tell people to use proper products when everyone is on the internet and can debunk myths easily.

That said, it's also not always about what you are wiping with, it's the dirt on the car, and even the best cloth will push dirt around and scratch and swirl the paint.

I love the quick detailer debates, and I do use them, but not for the whole car. Only when removing fingerprints and small items using a very clean proper cloth.

Better to leave the car dusty and dirty than to wipe that dust and dirt around after every drive. Just my opinion, but it's why the two or three bucket washing system with grit screens are the standard for even simple car washing. Lots of this info on the forum already.

 

Snakes, this site will have all the info you will need to know on how to maintain your finish - https://www.detailedimage.com/

BTW, unless your car permanently sits in your garage or living room, I can't possibly imagine never washing it. Unless you live in a really isolated area, the pollutants that fall from the sky will eventually damage your paint. In Italy they are having a constant battle with the pollutants that damage centuries old statutes and stone structures.

And drive it in the rain, in 70 years only 2 Ferraris have ever been documented to melt!

 

What current product do you use?
