Just wanted to send out a quick thank you for all the recommendations & tips I received in this particular forum.
I'll admit, I was a little skeptical at first about the Zaino recommendations, but after putting it through it's paces today all I can say is 'WOW' . I'm truly impressed. I'll post a picture or two tomorrow. I'm interested to see how it holds up against weather & daily road pollution.
Besides being a little skeptical, the Zaino involved a few steps unfamiliar to me. I was used to the basic wash,occasionally wax & sometimes drive-through wash with my other cars. The clay bar thing kind threw me for a loop too and I was probably a little to careful, but the results on the few known spots were good.
I'm still a beginner in this 'advanced' form of washing, but the results make the extra effort truly worth while.
Anyway....I'll wrap this up, but thank you again

Ps: One question before I leave this, what do ya'll use to clean the wind-deflector? (It attracts dust like a magnet)

I use Plexus for the windscreen, the same stuff I use for the plastic window. It is somewhat anti-static.
As for the Zaino thing, I started using this just before winter hit. If you've been following any of my posts, you'll know that I drive my car through all sorts of crud and my car is a ball of mud and salt on a regular basis. Just before winter, I did the standard Zaino starting procedure - dawn wash, Z1, Z2, Z6, Z2, Z6, Z2, Z6 all in about 4 days. I haven't touched it since except to wash it with the Zaino wash. Each time I've washed it so far, the water comes off just like I just Zaino'd it. I didn't do the claybar thing and I only plan to do the Z2 twice a year with Z6 after each wash (but only in the warm months - it gets too dirty too fast in winter).
