the washing is more important than the waxing, since you do it more. There are some how-to's in the detailing forum.

I use a 2 section bucket, so the dirty water is seperate from the clean water with the suds. I prefer micro-fiber wash mitts and the big blue drying waffle weave towels for drying...those are the best.

Just tape your car up everywhere you go. Problem solved.

waxing wont really prevent that, it can't stop a rock moving hard enough to penetrate clear and paint.... you can get the areas repainted and then put a clear bra on the front bumper and hood.

... or I have an OEM infiniti bra I only used once I'll sell you for cheap!

ya wax wont stop chips. as for the clear bra, its helpful but i dislike how it looks over time so i didnt get 1 this time around.

but if there is anyone in jax good at detailing, i wouldnt mind paying.
