What do you use to wash your camaro?

Hello guys. I'm new to the site. I got a 2010 2SS Black Camaro about a month ago. Quite a big upgrade over my last car (2002 Honda Civic). Needless to say I am more then happy about this car. It freakin rocks!

I was wondering what you guys use to wash it? A friend was telling me not to use those drive through car washes that some gas stations have because it can put kinda microscopic scratches on the car and that I should either have people wash it or learn to wash it good myself lol.

Any suggestions?

Do not use a drive through car wash! Nothing good will come of it. Check out the videos at www.adamspolishes.com. You do not own a black car. The black car owns you!

I never used Zaino before, but now that I have, I'll never use anything else!

I use Zaino as well. This site has a wealth of info. It is really just your preferrence. I will not go back to anything but Zaino after seeing how easy it is to use and the effects on the car.

I'm on the adam's team as well. Zaino is too labor intensive for my style.
