If you have a pressure washer get a foam cannon.. I have an S and also picked up a Worx electric leaf blower as the handles, window trim and refreshed front badge area hold water and drip after drying causing hard water streaks.

No pressure washer for me...thinking about microfiber cloths as only tool!I’d recommend a different one with a wider opening. Pouring car soap in that little hole can sometimes get annoying. Otherwise they pretty much all work the same.

So, if I was to forego the car wash for the first time ever for my new Y, what would you recommend?
looking for something that can be done in 10 min or less!
I do have a garden hose of course.Cash works...
Thanks. Sorry for all the newbie questions!This is another reason many ppl recommend and get a ceramic coating. Makes a bi-weekly two bucket hand wash much easier and quicker. You'll find the car just stays cleaner longer and is easier to clean with a good sealant.

would a ppf wrap provide the same benefit as ceramic?
Just ordered the optimum no rinse wash. Anyone have experience with that?
A wrap is different (clear bra or vinyl wrap). That simply changes and protects the color and protects from small chips. You still typically need a good ceramic coat on top of the wrap to keep it clean. If you want to do it right. Wrap the car with car bra (at least the front) AND put a ceramic coat on. Best to have a pro do it unless you are comfortable with paint correction with a DA polisher. Then use the foam gun people have been talking about every two weeks (yes, you can use a regular garden hose). At that point, it only takes 5 minutes to do a quick microfiber mitt wash (one or two bucket method depending on how dirty the car really is). In reality, it will never take you only 10 minutes since that is about how long it is to set up and put away. Id figure 20 minutes minimum but your car will look great 90% of the time. We could get into the details of true detailing but that is a true 60 minute time suck of your life (if that is not your thing). Lots of good youtube videos on how to do a "maintenance wash" (the one that doesnt take 3 hours). Check out "Pan the Organizer" on youtube. He is the best IMO for the newbie and experts alike. He has a very good "maintenance wash" video (although, he says his maintenance washes take an hour, you can cut out some of the steps and make it 20-30 minutes). You will be the envy of your neighborhood!
