Yep, Lane's Wash & Shine E206:

Although fancy carnuba waxes like Pinnacle Souveran give incredible shines, they are also very short lasting... Wash & Shine works well because it allows you go for longer in between waxes...

This should be made *The Official how to clean and detail your car Thead*

I don't use wheel cleaner because most of them are pretty harsh, so I just use a bucket filled with car wash soap, water, and a microfiber towel...

My dad is taking care of my aunts S550 right now.

Unfortunately, he is horrible when it comes to actually taking care of the cars exterior/interior. (read, he used to use bath towels before I told him geebus no| he tried to use Plastic polish on the Paint for a scratch and I had to pull him away because he was so adament about it being able to do the job, etc etc.)

I plan on polishing it with my PC, and hopefully rejuvenate the paint a bit.

Thanks for going over your method. Here I thought the Zaino was difficult!

Zaino cannot match the 3-dimensional depth of Souveran on black cars....
