The car is covered and garaged, only put about 1K a year on it, never use soap, only clear water out of a bucket.
With dry times in the approximate 30 minute range in ideal conditions, applying a coat of Z5, Z6 and then Z2 (my standard set after washing) at least adds another 90 minutes to the 30 minute process of washing and drying the car. I can see some folk thinking that might be a bit much, considering most waxes go on and off in 30 minutes. But for those that want a car that stands out in the crowd of many, to me, its the only way to go.

Phil as a recommendation, I would consider using the Zaino car wash with the water in the bucket. Wont dry the paint, and it softens up the water some. Just my $.02
