Default RE: Cleaning plane

If you'll buy a microfiber polishing cloth from the auto parts store it's the best thing around for getting the stuff off. I can actually get all the crud off with no cleaner at all, although the spray bottle makes the job go faster. The microfiber rag gets 95% of the oil off on the first pass, then I go back with some windshield washer fluid and alcohol to get it out of the crevises. The airplane isn't even greasy afterwards.
That sounds interesting.

So how do you clean the polishing cloth afterwards? Just throw in the the washing machine?

How many planes can you clean with one rag before it's too soaked to work anymore?
