A proper detailing last year with paint correction and gentle hand wash including good products is the key I guess.

This is what I used for the wash:
Bilt Hamber Korrosol, Bilt Hamber Surfex HD for prewash.
Bilt Hamber Autofoam in foam cannon to make the foam party :P
P21s wheel cleaner
Meguiars NXT soap (the purple) in the bucket and a nice and soft sponge.
I also use a quite large Nilfisk hot water pressure washer.

Well it certainly looks good on it. Glad I can rely on someone to be taking amazing pictures of a red zed as Kermit is thinking of selling his :(

Looks great, far to shiny though. No way you could keep a car that clean in the UK :D
