Help me (noob) clean my '68 Firebird for the first time

**tumbler510** · 07-02-2012, 07:54 PM

Bought/restored/painted a 1968 Firebird, and haven't cleaned it in longer than I care to mention. Its a fresh paint job, I leave it under a car cover i n the garage, and it rarely gets on the road. Its windows aren't watertight yet, so I am looking at waterless washes. I have done a bit of research into UWWP and ONR, but they say mild to light build-up. I guess I have a regular amount of build up after a few months, but only behind the rear wheels. I have never had a car that I have had to care for like this, so please help me out. As you can imagine, I absolutely don't wanna scratch the paint or damage it in any way.

Thank you in advance for any help!

Welcome to Autogeek Online! I would just buy some UWWP Concentrate which can be used as a waterless wash and rinseless wash. Use the waterless wash when working around the windows but then for the rest of the car use the rinseless wash.

A tip to help reduce the risk of scratching your paint is to spray some waterless wash on the panel before washing with the rinseless. This will loosen up the dirt some.

Thanks for the quick response! So there are different ways to use the same product? UWWP can be a rinseless and a waterless? What are the differences.
