Sounds like fun. Two things: you said tomorrow. Sorry, but yeah right. That list of chores is more than a day's work, probably more than two. Just so you don't find yourself exhausted at midnight with a half-done job. Secondly, with the Mr. Clean, do very small portions at a time, and plan on overlapping, or else your car will be dirtier than when you started. And also know that the "auto dry" part does not work as well as advertised. It works, just not very well. Unless maybe you start with super soft water. Anywaay, have fun.

You still have to hand wash it with the Mr. Clean thing. You can't just spray it on and hose it off. The product works extremely well. And I turn off my water softener because the chemicals leave tiny white spots all over my paint. So AJs you're doing something wrong . I would do the engine first so you can clean any degreaser or other dirt that gets on your paint.

I used Mr. Clean Autodry, and then applied Meguiar's Deep Crystal Polish and Meguiar's Gold Class Wax...my car is like a mirror.
