i use an attachment on my garden hose that runs the water through an ion exchanger, alot like what people use on their sinks for drinking water except its tailored to pull the calcium out of the water instead of chlorine, that way all i have to do is do a final rinse after a wash and let it sit and dry on its own. no spots, no streaks. car is silver which helps. i don't know who made it but you can find similar crap at your auto store.

Anyone know what a clay bar is????

It gets all the tiny bits of dirt and dust thats left on your car after so you dont rub it in with the wax. Makes it shine twice as much, its like looking into a mirror.

heres some detailed info on it for you:

I cheat.. I wash mine then drive around for a bit.. come home, and let it sit till its completely dry (usualy the next day.. wash it at night).. they I wax it. No more water spots after that.. but I dont take mine out all that often either.. lol
