not for me...
but i do not lots of guys who pour some liquid wax (or detailers spray) in with their car shampoo. not for the base coat, but to give a shine a little pick-up!

I've used the Eagle Wax as you dry stuff, and it seems pretty good. I use it in between regular waxing. I've used it on several cars, and it works pretty good but doesn't last long, thus the reason I would do it every couple of weeks. It's so quick and easy, that I don't see a reason not to try it.

Of course, nothing beats a good wax like Zaino, Meguiar's or others.

I have used various brands of car washes that contain some wax for years. Never had a problem and the wash comes out nice. Granted, they are not a substitute for a real wax job, but they do no harm (my observations over a couple of decades of use). As a matter of fact, I just washed my new 2005 S today with a car wash that contains some wax and it looks great!

I found that the wax in such combi products mess with the windshield. leaves a wax film that makes for degraded wiper action.

Don't put it on your windshield!

Use RainX or a good quality wax on the windshield instead.
