Any recommendations on soap, sponges, towels, waxes, etc to do a car wash by hand at home?

Meguiars has some nice products.
Liquid glass if you want a nice polish easier than a wax. They also have a product for interior called liquid connoisseur.
Cali duster
Outlast for your flares and plastics.
Absorber for a chamois.

I just run through the local wash and spray and scrub by hand at least once a year.:cheesy:

That's where I'm at with the Jeep. I may throw a hand wax on once every couple of years when I'm out of money for new mods. Just because.

I somehow missed seeing this!
I have 3 of these...one for the Jeep, one for wife's Mustang and the mini one for inside...It is perfect for pollen and dust.

Same here. Not drive through. I only do the power/pressure wash. I had a car as a teenager that got scratched from driving through one of those things. Won't do it again.

Wow, you guys make it sound like I wash my jeep way too often lol. Being in west Michigan, I try to power wash it at least once every 2 weeks or so and more especially in the winter.
That said, I typically hand wash it as much as I can and Meguiar's/turtle wax seem to do a good enough job for me.

I'm still trying to find a product that works well on the "chalky" film that all the limestone around Austin likes to leave behind on dash material. It's like I need to wash my interior with CLR or something...
Having said that, a few shining stars I have managed to find are readily available at AutoZone:
Meguiar's Ultimate Black is the bees knees for door handles, the hard top, plastic fenders (wife's jeep), and whatnot. Works really well for restoring faded black.
Meguiar's Ultimate Quick Detailer is a great exterior spray. AS the name implies it's not really for washing the entire car, but for quick touch ups like water run-off or dust. Works especially well on powder coated surfaces.
Invisible Glass is my now go-to for windshields and mirrors. I use the aerosol version and let it 'foam up' for a few seconds before wiping.
