Ive tested cheap products. and expensive ones. They are all the same. Just make sure you use a semi abrasive on tough stains if you really want to bring that car to a shine! IVe settled on turtlewax since its cheap around here.

Clay bars work great for removing bugs. Use a soapy towel, add a lite lemon and lay it over where ever bugs are. I had to keep a wet towel on one spot for a few hours. Just check back every 30min to make sure it stays wet... will get them right off!

dead bugs ... I use one of those scourers for non-stick pans, the "scouring" side doesn't last very long but it doesn't scratch the bodywork or bumpers !!

Looks good, do you guys not wax everytime you wash???

I always use a good quality wash/wax shampoo, leave to dry, spray wax whole car and buff up, use bumper trim detailer on all black exterior trimwork, chrome polish on all chrome work and buff up, alloys cleaned then polished and buffed up.

Everytime I wash the car  :)
