to stop watermarks, drench the car with the hose pipe and wipe off with a drying towel afterwards. Then if your feeling plush use some quick detailer :)

Wheel sealent - I just use collonite but im a pikey and cant afford any more detailing stuff atm.

I would buy poor boys though judging on the reviews!

For water marks:

Any detailing spray will do it.

Best thing to do is, If you or your parents have a water butt in the garden use the water out of that. Thats what i use to rince after washing, the water just falls off and its so easy to dry with any sort of drying towl as where whne you rince with the hose ect or tap water the hardness of the water just makes it cling to yor paint work.

Rain water is awsome!

I mean when you wash the car 1 side of the car drys and starts to elave marks but i heard there was something out there you spray on the car to help the process be longer stopping it doin this so that it gives u longer time to dry the car with a water magnet
 
Give it a wax once a month.

Then for cleaning it once or every two weeks: First wash all the soap etc off, Leave it to drip for a few mins, Then use a soft towel for the excess water, Then quick detailer and a new towel for finishing off.

I only wash my car in the shade, And make sure the panels are cold.

If im feeling fancy i use my sisters RO water she uses for her fishes. (no water marks really)

After i have finished washing my car and dried to get rid of water marks i get a cloth that i use for buffing up after waxing and just wipe it down all over windows to and it brings it up spotless!

And will put swirls in at the same time lad.

It depends how far you want to go with this. You can use deionised water, also know as RO or reverse osmosis water. This contains no contaminants and so will not leave residues on your paint work (the cause of water marks).

However, if you spray Quick Detailer over the car's panels then it should help you protect against water marks and swirls.

Too much like hard work! It's only water marks!

You shouldn't be getting watermarks after washing...Nice thick dryin towel, dose than with detailer and leave it on the roof for a min...Then wipe gently...done. Buy a couple if you need. i've got 3 now. 1 purely for wheels and tyres.

no matter what you do it will always do that if hot or in full sun, just keep rinsing every so often thats what i do
