Well, I do live on Planet Earth which is a start.

We got our car coated with Pure Guard. It's never had a polish, and all you do is wash it with a wax-free shampoo and then rinse it with a capful of the stuff in water when you're finished and give it a quick dry and it looks great.

Not sure how much it costs though, as the garage treated the car when we bought it and included it in the price.

My son spends ages polishing his car and spent £40 on cleaning products not long ago. Ours just needs a quick wipe and looks just as good.

We didn't pay any extra for it. It's not SupaGuard we had. The water beads on the car. Inside isn't protected by Scotchguard either, because the seats are leather.

Maybe they were conned. We weren't, and ours looks and works great.

After you have washed the car spray each panel one at a time with some quick detailer and wipe off with a microfibre towel..this should help remove the streak marks.

We have a fantasic IMO (that's the name of the car wash, not an abreviation for In My Opinon...) car wash that does the "Full Works" for a crispy fiver!

Unless you've had the door moulding painted the same colour as the car as an aftermarket job...

Never use a chamois and never use a ruber blade thing. Both are bad for the car. Use a microfibre drying towel. Have a look at www.detailingworld.com and you'll get plenty of good advice
