Question How do YOU take care of your baby???

No, this has nothing to do with your newborn or toddler....

I want to know what EVERYONE does when they go to wash their Fronty's????

What soap do ya use? What type of cloth do you wax with? What tire shine do you use? How long does it take you to typically wash your truck? Do you use claybar? Do you polish your crome and steel? Do you EVER wash your car? Do you take it somewhere and pay someone else? Do you let mother nature wash the truck? Do you bring your plastic back to black? What do you use for the plastic? Do you clean the interior? etc????? These are just some of the things to talk about!

Let's hear it! How do you take care of THAT Fronty???? Tell me ALL!!!!!!!

theres probably a million threads on this but my number one thing is....
Westleys Bleach White. Your truck can be looking amazing, but dull grey tires will stick out like a sore thumb. then some armor all tire shine and they will be as black as my truck.

I am sort of against using the cali-blade type product. Just the same way you scratch your iPod sliding in and out of the case. Im not saying it doesn't work, just that it better be clean, as well as the truck, because any grits left will just make a big-ol' scratch.
