You are obviously avoiding my question. Don't assume that I haven't done my homework over the years (23-1/2 detailing), that would be a mistake. Might I suggest you continue using your "olive oil to emulsify" and I will enjoy my caesar salad.

whatever ..and I will it has worked for many years actually more than you have been detailing cars....howver thank you for your opinion...

Also, if you are guessing at how to use detailing products, DON'T! ask a professional to help you.
but dawn will leave your hands soft.. and grease free...

I know its ghetto, but I just use some generic Purple Power "lovebug" spray... then rinse off

Then wash as normal

Then use clay, and put some more sealant and/or wax on

badda bing, done.
