if you are talking about the swirls left by the wax, then when you're done, get a gallon of distilled water, only use distilled water, and a real soft towel like you would use in your shower. let the car sit in the sun about 10 then pour some distilled water on the towel and wipe small sections of the car at a time. it works.

I do the Meguiars with a twist, instead of the "Step Three wax" I use Meguiars Gold wax, higher carnauba content which in my lowly opinion seems better (looks deeper) for darker colors.
I haven't tried Mother's products, but have heard good things about it.
I recently did a friends car with Griots machine polish number 3 and was really impressed. I plan on trying it and their best of show wax on my BCM once spring arrives.

I used to use the Mr. Clean thing all the time. But I noticed after a few washes my car didn't see to shine that great. I've read people think the Mr. Clean soap is harsh and removes wax, same way dish soap removes wax. Whether it's true or not, I don't know. But I don't use it anymore and am happier. It does work really well though. I've also heard of people using leaf blowers too, as long as like you said, don't do it in a dusty place.

What I do to minimize how much drying I have to do. After I'm done washing and rinsing, I take the nozzle off my hose and run water all over the car. The water sheets off and leaves minimal water behind that needs to be wiped off. I read that somewhere once and tried it. Doesn't sound like it would work, but it really does. Although I don't think it would work as well if the car wasn't waxed.

The paint on these xBs are horrible. There is no hope. The tC I could throw a rock at, and the paint would be fine. If i look at the xB the wrong way, it scratches.

I bought my car xB off the lot (63 miles because of a DX xfer) and there were already swirls from them washing it for me. The only reason i didn't go ape ____ on the sales guy was because he was helpful as hell throughout the whole process... though i didn't point it out to him. I think they just put a coat of wax on it to cover em up. If i wasn't desperate (in a matter of speaking - daily driver was dead, but didn't wanna drive the show car much longer) I would have told em there was no way in hell i was taking that one.
