I bought my car used ~15000 miles ago and have never cleaned it. It is absolutely filthy and I question when the previous owner cleaned it... yech...

I just ordered the cleaning kit from KKR, but can I just hose this thing off to let my car breath for 2 days?

Or, more importantly, what is the cleaning procedure when the kit arrives and how much drying time is involved?
