Bill, I didn't know that people used chamois's on themselves!

I like "KISS" methods too. Simoniz takes a lot of elbow
grease; I use NuFinish and other easy to apply waxes. Most
don't last long though.

I've never had much luck with any of those car wash gimmicks. Water
powered spinning brushes or spinning felt pads, static brushes that
attach to hoses, etc. All of which waste water (unless you don't attach
the hose). Like you, I always go back to the basics. Wet down, wash with
car wash soap and towel (or brush), rinse, and dry with chamois. I am
still using a 10 year old chamois that is made by Speedo, and used by
swimmers to dry off after swimming competitions.
I still use the old Simonize paste car wax, which shine actually does
last a whole year.
