Figured I'd post a few pics of my first wash and wax of the Bu. Took me a few hours but I think it came out nice, a lot better than when I drove it off the lot :)
Also used the clay bar for the first time, was a little hesitant on using it, but from what I read it's a good idea to use it...

I only clay bar twice per year. Do you just use water in a spray bottle or do you use the spray detail wax stuff that comes with some claybar kits?

I've heard that using water with a drop of dish soap (since the wax is getting stripped off anyways) is a good way to go, anybody try that out?
I'll probably just try to claybar while I'm washing the car, so it's already soapy from my carwash soap. Just wash one panel, then claybar the same panel, then move on to the next. I think I use turtle wax ICE car soap...
