My Z is an '06 and a little bit over a year old since I purchased it new...

I have not waxed it yet, as I've used liquid car wash/wax mixture in the past...nothing special, just some stuff from Sam's Club -might not have been a good idea...

I do remember seeing people mention Meguiar's products in the past, so I'm leaning towards buying some of their products...

How often do you all wax your Z and when? I think once or twice a year is sufficient, right? Once before Summer and once before Winter?

Also, is clay bar necessary...or is that mainly for cars with paint that hasn't been kept up and washed -mainly on older or mistreated cars?

What does everyone use, and what are their methods for washing and/or waxing?

Help

I'll skip on the clay bar for a while...my paint job is still looking good, but it definitely needs to be waxed.

Can you buy Meguiars or Zymol anywhere other than online?

What specific Zymol wax do you use?

I noticed Meguiars has multiple waxes...

which is the best...liquid, paste, spray???
