Mine has two big washes per year, each involves the two bucket method along with claying with Bilt Hamber clay, then after claying its another wash & dry. Then I use the Werkstat Acrylic kit..

Nope, I've washed my truck at least 6 times now, and the silt is still coming out of random places! |

I use Autoglym. It gets a general wash every week. Then about twice a year it gets a full every nook and cranny wash and a good couple of coats of Autoglym super resin polish. This seems to keep it looking good all year round.

I use Rejex, used on planes, is a polymer that seals the paint, lasts about 6 months. Easy on and easy off. Expensive but you only use a little bit of it. So one bottle lasts a long time.

Just two bottles for me.
Autoglym car wash which is non - foam and quite greasy to use but leaves a great finish. Then twice a year Autoglym High gloss Protection. You're supposed to use it after a coat of polish but it works great on its own and beads water for 6 months. It also has the same viscosity as water so a bottle lasts for years ! |
