Do you use hose/pressure washer?

If so on the Scirocco what are the key parts to cover in plastic to stop ingress?

Want to do a good detail, I have Autoglym engine cleaner and some brushes.

The one time I did it I only sprayed water from a bottle to wash away the cleaning agent.

Thanks

I just use a spray bottle with some light soap in it. First remove the dirt and debris with some cloth and then go over with a detailing spray on all the black plastic parts and wipe down with a microfiber cloth. If you start with hosing it down you´ll have to cover certain parts and wait until all the water dries out before you can detail it. So in the end I think its faster to just go about it the hard way! :)
