What can I use (or where can I go) to wash my car w/o getting clear coat "swirlies"?

Question:
I have a new car and dreadfully fear the clear coat swirlies so many people have from improperly washing their cars. I normally just go to the touchless car wash but my car is dirty enough that it needs something more. What can I use to wash it myself that won't leave the swirls or Where can I go that will actually clean the car and not leave swirls?

Ok ! If you want to wash it yourself use a really soft wash mit usually found at Walmart, do not use dish soap, or any soap that claims to say wash and wax, use a detergent free carwash soap also found at Wallmart, always wet your car first starting from the bottom up, then wash your car from the top down, preferably using a seperate bucket to rinse your mit, never go from the bottom up when washing, the dirt from your car will act as sand paper and cause the swirls you are talking about and always use a semi soft bristle brush and a seprate bucket to clean your wheels and tires. To dry your car use a leather chamois, never bath towles as they too will cause the swirls you see. If you can find it (usually at a computer store) buy you a couple of cans of air to bloe the water out of the mouldings on your car, also always start drying your windows, then your hood, top, trunk, chrome and so on. This is just the basics but it should get you started or just take it to a professinal detailer.
