Zaino Z2 and Z7 deep gloss enhancer. I never wipe the car down as to avoid the micro scratches that inevitably appear if you do wipe it down with towels, microfibres, shammy's and the like. I use nature to dry the car....130 mph wind blown from my toro super blower. Wheels I use a brush and soap. Glass I use Glass plus...

Nano Wax by Meguire
On this same subject I just used the new "nano-wax" by Meguire. I was pretty impressed by the ease it went on and how it ended up looking.
Anyone else have impressions?

My routine when detailing:
Wash with dish soap (using Griots sheep mitt)
Clay with Pinnacle clay
Menzerna IP and FP if needed
Klasse AIO
Klasse SG
P21S paste wax
Eimann Fabrik tire gel
Eimann Fabrik window cleaner
303 aerospace protectant on interior
Plexus on gauge plastics
Griots leather conditioner
Wash car normally with P21S wash, and quick detail with Sonus, or if I did the P21S wax, Pinnacle. Use a separate sheep skin mitt for the wheels and brakes.
