In between wax treatments?

What is the best way to care for your car inbetween waxes?

I know that washing after rains and stuff like that...but what about daily care to keep your car shining?

Wash the car and crystal mist it weekly?

See ya on the road,
Matt

If my car has only accumulated light dust or pollen I use a CA Duster and hit it with Clearkote QS and it looks great. JoeD

I use S&W for light cleaning (CCD if it's a very light dust only) and OCW after a full wash.

I wash twice weekly on the Vette, minimum once weekly on the new SRX. I always use a QD'er like Quikshine, 425, Crystal Mist after each wash. If I get some spots or birdie doo-doo I clean it immediately with Showtime. Cars are always in the garage when not in use or at work.

California duster and QD every day that I don't wash. I usually wash 1-2 times a week.

I wash weekly and will QD immediately afterwards with a "system-friendly" QD.

Sometimes just a QD spray, but now I use Poorboys QW+ and love it
