Cold weather detailing

Greetings,
Now that cold weather has arrived, I have less time to wash my Accord. Going out in the cold wind makes for a tough cleaning chore. What do you folks do in winter. The local scratch and wash has warm water but I really dislike those brushes on my paint. Any ideas?
Thanks,
ebc

OOOOOO.......never knew about these. These seem like they would be good living in an apt complex with no car washing stall/area. Thanks for the info.

I have all except DP 4 in 1 and use them. There's a lot of information here on Wet Paint and also their website. For the others check out autogeek or any of the detailing forums.
