Rain. If it rains. Otherwise the car doesn't get washed.

I use a big ole sponge. The two bucket method works pretty nicely for me.





I know there are some extreme detailing wizards on this site, it will be interesting to see what they use.

I use meguiars car wash. It really makes the car look like it's been waxed without the waxing! I really recommend this stuff.







Then I use "the absorber" to dry it, leaving the car spotless. Good and easy method.







For the windshield, just go to the gas station free water repellent instead of buying RainX.
