Hey guys. I just joined last night. My name is Josh, I'm a local to Florida. I'm a member of cobaltss.net, which is where I heard about this website. I have a red Cobalt ss/sc. I'm not new to hand washing cars, but from what I've read, I'm new to doing it the "right" way. Ever since I started cleaning my car, I've used regular towels, not MF. I didn't know about any of the stuff being talked about on this forum, and I really still don't. If there's a newbie thread of how to get started or any beginner tips that are useful, please send them my way haha. I guess until next time, see ya! :buffing:

welcome to the site! yeah these pros will get you down the right path. Household towels!!!! awwww, reading that is like scraping fingernails down a chalkboard. WHAT?!?! You used Suave shampoo to wash your car?!? Best advise is to just read as much as you can and search for specifics. There's great how to and great videos on here as well as youtube.

I got an idea-search for 'Cobalt' and I'm sure you'll find some before and after threads explaining their process and that'll just get you pumped even more.

I've been reading the Show N Shine section, and I love the 50/50 pictures. I wish I could go out and do it right now, but I don't have any of the stuff to use :(. Now when I wash my car, I use two buckets, MF towels, and car wash soap. At least I'm going down the right track now haha.
