I wash mine with a lambskin mit and 2 buckets. One for soapy water and the other a rinse bucket. Rinsing the mitt gets the heavy sand or grit off the mitt before soaping it up again and putting it on the car. I too use a leaf blower to get all the water around the front grill, side vents, wheels, you name it. Then its easy wipe up whats left with micro fiber towels. I still have to open the rear windows to get water out there. I also open the doors, trunk, and hood and wipe up water accumulated there so it doesn't blow out later. Simple green on the wheels get them clean. I clay bar, polish, and wax once a yr and keep it covered in the car port when not it use.
