I have always taken pride in riding/driving a clean motor vehicle, whether it be 2 or 4 wheels; some would say to the point of being anal about this obsession. From the pics posted here, I am not alone in this regard.

How do you keep your Bonnie clean? Soap and water and hose like a car wash? What do you use on the motor? Tires and wheels? Painted surfaces? Chrome?

Any tips on method, frequency and products used would be appreciated.

I "Dry Clean". All the stuff you can buy @ ? I wouldnt put a hose to her no way. A damp/ wet rag yes . Bonnes dont like water- rust! I am sure each to his own tho. Still loks new! No rust- that I havent gotten rid of. The chrome on the Bonne's isnt the best!
