Winter Detailing

During the winter months I still like to have a clean car but living in Colorado with snow and all the other winter fun its hard to keep my Max shinning. What does everybody do to keep their rides clean during the winter? products? tips? suggestions? Thanks

Look into Optimum No Rinse. Uses very little water compared to traditional wash and you can do it indoors.

Basically all you can do is put a good couple coats of sealant (use instead of wax for longer lasting) and use ONR as suggested as above or a touchless/wand car wash. Going anything above and beyond that would be a bit much being that their is just so much crap that gets on and scratches up your vehicle that you would be pulling your hair out trying to constantly correct it.
