I like it warm enough to help break down any residue etc...but not to hot to melt the last layer of wax if that makes sense.2017 Vauxhall Insignia Grand Sport Sri Nav 1.5 (165ps) Turbo petrol in Lava Red - Keyless entry and start - 18” five spoke alloy wheels - Front fog lights - Tinted rear windows - Aluminium sports pedals - Ambient interior led lighting - Front and rear parking assist - Active emergency braking - Forward collision assist - Front pedestrian alert - Traffic sign recognition - Lane keep assist - Cruise control - Speed warning and limiter - Voice recognition - Bluetooth - Duel zone climate control - Front and rear electric windows - High beam assist - Auto lights - Auto wipers - Wifi hotspot - 8” colour touchscreen Navi 900 with Android Auto, Apple Car Play and DAB

More important to rinse the thick dirt and dust off car before starting the wash. Many people also use the 2 bucket system, but some say it as bad as the 1 bucket way.
I use 2 buckets, 1 with warm water and wash, other just clear water. Load mitt and wash area, rinse mitt in clear water bucket, then repeat. I also rinse the car way to many times as im washing, keep and dirt / dust off the paint. I am anal thou , can take me a good 4 hours for a wash and dryUsual Elite specification;Dancing lights, up/down windows, sliding seats, on board atlas, slippery seats, musical bumpers, storm detectors, tubeless radio, female knight rider communication system, all seeing windscreen, cherry air freshener, auto moaning passengers, learner driver, shiny door pins, rear boom box, Heko smoked window hats, rear window sunglasses, 10 million candle flame reversing lights, matching number plate lights, shiny pedals, front and rear all seeing eyes, fully integrated interrogation system, empty bank account .
