I normally use a huge and very soft microfibre to lift off the main dirt - you have to be very very careful not to drag the dirt around - I've managed to perfect it now.

I haven't washed my car over two months now - after every drive I wipe down the car (carefully) and then Z6 if needed and clean the alloys - I do this everytime!

I never apply any polish unless I have washed the car thoroughly - tell a lie - I have done recently - I was a bit bored and thought I'd add another two coats on the rear bumper - just make sure the surface is well clean.

Yeah - when is this Zaino day happening then? Seriously - it takes me the whole day to get the car looking the way I like it.

Zaino Day I spent 14 hours over the weekend applying the magic stuff! Claybar, 8 coats of Z5/Z5 & 5 coats os Z2/Z6. I'm knackered & half blind from staring at shiney white paint. The white doesn't give the reflections that you get from darker colours, however, I'm very pleased with the results:
