It's to keep your seals in good shape.

Yea shin-etsu grease is recommended by honda to keep all the seals in a healthy condition.

I got some auto glym wax and put 2 coats of that on the car and the wheels.

Then I took it out for a spin and got the car covered in dirt and rain, hosed it off with my filtered water and it look's like new again.

Oh yes Zaino Z2 is recommended as a final step after removing swirls and marring etc, but auto glym wax really made the car pop.

Just remember, you can't add Zaino over the Autoglym. You'd have to strip that down with a heavy soap like dishsoap. That should leave some Zaino on as a base to build back up from.

Hmm you could: clean door jambs, clean open upper trunk, clean open upper hood, clean gas cap area, clean all of trunk area (my trunk sticks after a rain), apply Meg's PlastX or something to headlights/taillights.
All of this stuff I do like once a year, who really looks at the top of your open hood or trunk, but its usually covered in water spots and dirt.

Good ideas, all.
