None of my cars have ever been washed or waxed. I use Adams Waterless Car Wash weekly on all my cars (including windows & rims). Ultra Finish Polish as required (but Adams makes an excellent polish also). Armor All Wheel Protectant on the tires. That's it.

SVRT works really well on the tires, but it's expensive. Though I don't consider money an object when it comes to caring for my cars, a product does have to warrant its cost, and for the most part, Adam's does that with the exception of the tires. Armor All's wheel protectant does equally well and costs considerably less. I've tried other Adam's products and have added some while dismissing others. Example: Their glass cleaner works great, but no better than the waterless wash, so I stick with that. I also use waterless on the underside and wheel wells after racing and the engine bay weekly. Needless to say, I go through a gallon of this stuff in a few months, but nothing on the market that I've found can compete with it. I left out that I use Adam's In and out Spray on the trim, honeycomb, interior, mirror housings and Engine bay. It works well and gives a shine similar to silicone. I should become a distributor for them. lol.No SVRT on the tires? Also, that stuff works GREAT on the plastic GT mirrors and the cowl piece. Oh and Waterless wash is some fantastic stuff
I will do a similar "pre-wash" to wipe down my DD's if they're so dirty the waterless isn't economical. I use bottled water because the water out here as so many minerals it's like washing your car with a stone.^This is more my speed. Put a teaspoon of solution in 2 gal. of water and wipe down car with microfiber towel. Use Areospace 303 Protectant on interior. Use ultra shine Armor-All on tires and chin spoiler. The paint is swirly but I don't give a rat's ass. Wax once a year with a Mother's clay bar kit. Good enough for a 1,000 mile a year car.

All my cars except for the stang have cloth interiors and the stang only requires an occasional wipe down with the products I'm already using. I was impressed by it and would recommend it to anyone though.
Nightfire.... it all depends on how severe the swirls are. I would recommend a nice 1-2 punch. Poorboys World sells SSR2.5 (med) swirls remover, and SSR1 (light) polish. My new favorite go to swirl removal combo is PBW Pro polish 2 followed by Pro polish. Will you be doing this by hand or by machine? Do small sections at a time and check your work frequently. I usually work in sections of 1 foot by 1 foot. Over lapping each pass in an up an down and side to side motion letting the machine move it self. Takes lots pf practice and patience. When I first got my black stang it was covered in spider webs and swirls. It took me over 15 hours to get her swirl free! Have fun with it!
