Spring Detailing

So as the weather is getting better i really want to wash and detail the car the problems are:

Colorado has a real bad dust and wind problem, i would wash my car and not even a week later there would be a layer of dirt and dust

I live on base so my car washing utilities are very limited i either have a choice of going through the touchless car wash or spray it down with soap and water in one of those stalls myself (they dont allow for outside chemicals or soaps)

i was just wondering if anyone could recommend what i could use to really help protect my car from the dust and dirt also so that it looks real nice


-Thanks!

Once or twice a year you may have to find/beg/borrow a garage or bay of some kind to do your work.

yeah there is an auto hobby shop on base and thats where i get most of my work done but i was just wondering what kind of products i should use especially since i dont have access to my own hose and stuff and i dont think the hobby shop wants me to wash my car in their bay, but applying wax and stuff is fine

i don't think there is any product out there that can prevent dirt or dust from sticking onto your paint, but you can always try your best to give it as much protection as possible by applying sealant or wax, or in some preference both.
