How should I properly wash my Guinea Pig?

I put him in the sink and run a small stream of warm water over him until he's entirely soaked. Then, I use one hand to keep him in place, and I use my other hand to lather white soap. I then take the soap lather and rub it on his fur. After repeating the lather process about twice, I rinse him off. I towel try, then I use a hair dryer on low.
Should I go against the grain of the fur when I wash and rinse? Should I use white soap or shampoo? Should I plug the sink, or just continue to leave it unplugged? Should I just towel dry or just use the hair dryer? Should I use the bathtub instead? Any advice would be great!
