What is your go-to car wash and spray & shine?

:InB4 my butler/chauffeur washes my car:
I wash and detail the wife's car (pic is my av). I am trying to find a good spray & shine and a good wash & wax soap.
She has a black vehicle and one swirl mark drives me crazy.
Any suggestions?

Are you doing this by hand?
Easiest- Meguiar's #7 Show Car Polish followed by #26 Carnauba wax (or other quality carnauba)
The #7 will fill in the swirls, but wears off quickly without a wax on top.

Meguiar's hot shine tire foam is my go to.

Yes. This is not a complete wax detail job, I am talking about weekly wash, dry, spray shine, tires.
When it comes time to do a full wax detail, I'm paying someone to do it.

I like the meguiars car soap with the yellow GTR on it. My favorite quick detailer is griots speed shine, can get it at Advanced or Amazon. I also like chemical guys hybrid v07 spray sealant but it requires a little more buffing that the griots

2 bucket wash with grates and 2 mitts for the car
3rd bucket with 3rd mitt for the wheels
Wash wheels and tires first
Start at top of car with 1st mitt and wash down about halway
Use 2nd mitt for bottom half
Mequiars Crystal Glass with foam gun application before mitt wash
Blow dry with electric leaf blower

By hand:
Meguires wash
Clay
Meguires show car wax
Machine:
Porter Cable XP random orbital
Wolfgang Uber compound
Wolfgang Uber polish
Wolfgang sealant
You'll be good for 4-6 months after that.

Use smart wax USA smart wash for the car shampoo. Then use the smart wax one spray and shine. It's a waterless wash, Polish and carnuba wax all in one. Amazing product. Sister company to chemical guys. Look it up on YouTube.
