between washes question..

since Darren placed in my profile that my tt is always clean thought i could ask this question... in between washes what can i use to protect wax and maintain high shine? is final inspection the right choice and is it bad to throw layer of high carnuaba wax on after every wash( 2X per week)

Between washes, if the car isn't very dirty, I use the California Car Duster followed by Final Inspection.

I normally hit a few selected areas with P21S wax after every wash job.

be aware that the first few times it will leave some streaks so get some quick detailer too. The duster needs to get dirty before it's really effective.

I have read over at Autopia that you can wrap in in newspaper to absorb the excess wax, thus preventing streaks

I go with the California Car duster to remove the light debris and then follow up with Pinancle Crystal Mist and a MF towel.

The instructions that come with the California Car Duster actually tell you to do the paper routine prior to use.
