Honestly, I'm not that good at keeping our cars clean, but I usually use the Mr. Clean AutoDry wash, towel dry w/ white 100% cotton towels made in the US, and if I'm able to wax, I use Zaino. For the tires & windows I use Stoners. Smiley

I have been using Stoner's SpeedBead for the last 8 years on all of my vehicles and love it.  People have come up to me and ask what is on the car to give it that deep wet look.  Nothing else for me ever!

i also like meguiars products - the cleaner wax is excellent for removing things on the surface that are not easy to clean off and is not abrasive to the paint  Cheesy

I have been using Raindance Wax + Wash for a lot of years. It did a superb job of keeping the finish on the Beetle looking nearly showroom new. Lately I have been taking to adding a dollop of Zymol liquid wax to the wash mixture. I also use Zymol for waxing when I have the time. Love that banana smell Wink

i have been using the SmartWax i got as a gift from my dealer and really like it!  you can wax everything with it, including the black on the doors and front side black area of front window - you can even use it on the glass too!    Wink  their SmartDressing works very nicely on tires too!
