Tony, I washed mine once as per the daily driver, & had all your problems. Since then, I have used a "microfibre mitten", dipped in a very, very weak solution of car wash in a bucket of water. That seems to get all the grime off without leaving too much of a sudsy mess. Then I just run the chamois over it. Here in Oz, we are in a drought situation, with $250 fines for getting caught hosings cars, etc, so this method works well from that point of view as well !

Kind Regards,

Peter D.
