Hand wash using something like CR Spotless
Use a quality car wash soap (Meguiars, Mothers, Sonus, P21S, etc)
Use quality sheepskin or 100% cotton wash mitts
Use quality microfiber towels (big Blue, Pakshak, etc)
Use Zaino, Klasse, P21S, Four Star, etc
Use 303 Aerospace protectant instead of Armour All on tires, plastics and dash areas

Use a PC 7424 for polishing, swirl removal and sealants

Or go here to get some ideas:

Oooo san diego area?! Well consider me one of your new customers! Right now i take my E90 to World Famous hand wash on Clairemont Mesa.

BTW- i hate when there is still water/dirt below where the door closes. Dont let them do a 1/2 ass job and not wipe off that area.

not only that, I can see it, car wash meet every weekend. I think it will generate alot of business. I am not sure about liability in this sort of business if a customer complained that you scratched his/her 130K porsche.
