I enjoy cleaning my car. I can spend mindless hours with a microfiber and wax, drink a microbrew or two, crank up the tunes in the garage, and really enjoy it. I would answer yes to all the OP questions except the tapping feet one. I've got weathertechs so I don't mind dirty feet.

Well I thought I was OCD but some of you are more so than I. I have weathertechs inside and really avoid driving in the rain. The car does get a brief rain shower at work and we are near the interstate so there's tons of dirt in the air. I'm afraid of scratching the paint by just using a QD so I just wash often with a hose.

I was at work and on my lunch I was using quick detailer on my car with a lovely soft microfiber just to make sure it wasn't bothered being out of its garage (normally I wouldn't take it out at all but I was feeling crazy). A doctor I work with comes out and sees me he goes.
Doctor: What are you doing? Me: Using my free time to enjoy my car Doctor: Its clean already why do you need to keep cleaning it Me: I don't know, I am compelled to do this Doctor: Well in that case let me diagnose you as a "Carcissist" Needless to say he is right... ![]()

used to be the first few months of ownership. Now it's dirty as hell and I don't care anymore, unless I'm driving to meet up with some friends or to a meet; then I'll clean it up a bit, but it's usually nothing more than just QD

This thread is so me. Spent almost $250 on Zaino products and other stuff and 6hrs straight of all hand washing/waxing. Was up till 3am myself. Now I was her once every 2/3 weeks and apply a new layer of detailing spray and sealant. I also touch up in between washes with my California duster. Luckily the interior is so small so that's a piece of cake to maintain with a microfiber.

This is the best product I've found that removes bugs and DOES NOT scratch the paint. Not sure how it doesn't scratch b/c it's pretty rough/hard but it doesn't and I've used them on plenty of cars. Obviously wash the area first before using.
Safe Scrub Bug & Tar Pad can be used on glass, chrome, vinyl, fiberglass, paint and clearcoats—100% safe when used with soapy water.
