Poorboys with Carnauba Wax Blue.

No other polish for me or the hard work ceramic, it can be used in the sun also so Poorboys is my choice and it's easily applied and wiped off.
Finished off with Rain-X glass spray to keep dirt off and make it a doddle driving in the rain, comes in a twin pack from Costco.

You spray RainX on your paint? How is it applied?

No, I think I said it slightly wrong lol Rain-X is just for glass only and if there's any overspray to wipe it off the bodywork.

Gotcha. My windshield is ceramic coated plus I use Rain X as an additional layer of hydrophobic-ness. Can't tell you the last time I actually used the wipers.

Looks like some sort of clear teflon coating that makes the water roll away not letting the water bunch up. I wash and dry the glass before I apply the Rain X.
