Default Washing a Camero Convertible 2lt

Hey all, so I just bought my new camero, it is black and i'm pretty excited about it!

I have a few questions about how to clean the exterior

1. Its a soft top, can I take it through a car wash (the salesman said you could but i wanna be 100% sure)
2. I use the ShamWOW cloth to wipe the dust from it (its very soft) but people tell me that I shouldn't use that cuz it'll leave streaks on the car.


So I should be taking it through the car wash for the best clean? Or should I do a hand wash with special soap/cloth to clean it properly?

Thanks!

1) Do Not Take it to automatic carwash...NEVER
2) Hand wash the top first using liquid handsoap with soft brush.
3) Wash the rest of the car and dry with soft towels.

Personally, I would keep the Camero In a locked vault. These are very rare cars, almost impossible to get at any price. Anybody with cash can buy a Camaro, but a Camero is a real find.

Adams products rock. That's what I use on my Camaro - I have more info on my site.
