first of all , never rinse your car with high pressure water. The high pressure will actually push the dirt onto your paint and scratch it. ALWAYS use free flowing water before and after wash.
Free flowing water actually makes it easier to wipe the car dry as there isn't as many water droplets <<<< tried it and works like a champ.
What are you using for your last step ? For every last step , it should always be a pure wax/paint sealant where it will only serve the purpose of protecting the paint.

Hey,
I've been just washing the car and now I want to something a bit more.
Thinking of waxing and polishing it. Should I was it every time I wash and polish it once a while? I'm new to was and polish.
Not sure if I should ask here as well but I guess is under detailing lol I want to get some touch up paint(I bought the one from Mitsu and is way darker). Would getting a p26 paint from repco be good enough or I actually need to paint match it due to color fading?
