First bath and Porsche indoor cover

After a month and 1/2 since pickup day, bath could no longer be delayed. I already had bought all the necessary material, tons of high quality microfiber towels and all the sprays and liquids mankind could come up with to clean a car. Also read through a detailing forum to brush up om my technique and the do's and dont's.

After a painful 3 hour process the outside was clean, and this without waxing (don't feel confident enough yet). Next day I cleaned the interior and it was done. Spotless and squeaky clean!

I must say the car was pretty clean to start with, I give it the occasional spray (no cleaning of course) with demineralized water and the interior is just for driving: no eating, smoking (ever!!!!) or sandy/creamy beach going related marks whatsoever!

Finally, time to use the Porsche cover, which I must say wasn't the most brilliant of investments as it can only really be used just after cleaning the car (after it's dry of course). As this will happen monthly at best and the car isn't parked more than 3 o 4 days without me grabbing it for a ride it won't see much action!

No problem, it looks great and it's good to know I have something with quality to cover my car if needed. It is smooth and fits like a glove!

Could you repost the link? I'm interested in an alternative to the OEM cover, but the link didn't seem to work.
