Sure! Two bucket method with screens in the buckets to sift out the grit. After the wash and rinse I have a spray bottle that has a mix of RELOAD and Ech2O. Spray that on the car and dry.

That’s it!

That's it!

That's what I do too! Do you ceramic coat? I was going to use crystal serum light.

Also, are you a member of the group Obsessed Garage?

Great car. Congrats! How you you like it vs Macan?

Nice Spyder wheels on the Stormtrooper Macan! Had those on my Macan Turbo & they're my favorite, along with the Turbo wheels.

I think if we had the 6cyl in the Macan it would be more comparable performance wise, but the Macan feels / drives much smaller than it is, when it is actually slightly smaller than the X3. It does sit lower too and feels more like a cross over. The handling and the power of the X3MC is no comparison. It is a very special car that BMW M has created. It’s going to take some time for Porsche to counter the X3M / X4M with a similar product in the midsize segment, IMHO. It’s fun to have the X3 and the Macan because they drive totally differently
