Yes, put the key in the car whilst you wash it. I put mine on the drivers seat, but don't forget to pick them up befpre you leave the car

I've had my car for five years and 115000 miles. I have washed it once. I hoover it reasonably often and keep the inside neat, but the outside? Well it just gets dirty almost immediately afterwards.....
