Washing a car, is like making love to a beautiful woman.  caress the bodywork. Breathe softly and gently. And give every inch of it your loving attention. And make sure you've got a nice wet sponge.

I don't think the folks recovering the car care about the welfare of the car, just the shorelines of the £5million footballers housesecosystem of Sandbanks ;)
