I agree that cheap products can still be good but wiping down/drying a car after just hosing it down will only damage the paint. Please prove me wrong, take some photos of your paint close up with a lamp or flashlight above you. I am curious to see your paint quality after this.
well it's not like filthy
i wash it about once or twice a week

are you suggesting that if i spray soap along with the water it disintegrates the dust particles?
the main component that cleans the car is running water
soap just disolves grime, bird poop etc
but water is the component that washes out the dust, dirt etc
basically anything that can scratch paint should wash off with water
if it doesn't, adding soap to the mix still means you woud scratch the paint
