Default What does everyone use to wash and wax their car?

I'm ordering Zaino... but I have a silver car, will I see good results with a silver car?

What about actually washing your car? Any really good tips.

Especially how to get that really tough initial brake dust off those rear wheels... their killers!

Default I've got silver too and...

I think I have found a winning combo. This is what I use:

<B>Wash:</B>&nbsp;P21S Bodywork Conditioning Shampoo
<B>Polish:</B>&nbsp;P21S Painwork Conditioning Cleanser
<B>Wax:</B>&nbsp;Blitz 1 Carnuba Paste Wax

I have heard that P21S makes a good carnuba wax also, but it is more expensive than the Blitz 1, and the Blitz works like a d@mn champion.

Default No streakin for me...

I actually used to use Meguires Cleaner wax until I switched to Blitz. Blitz doesn't have any cleaning agents, so it might streak if the surface isn't polished or totally clean before application. It's really easy to remove though, and the shine will make you **** your pants.
