Dri-wash & Guard. I use that sh-t on everything.

Mothers has this stuff for tire marks. I forget the name of it, but Erik gave me some when I bought the pumpkin last year, works like magic!

Mothers works just ok for me. TTR works great. Somebody told me which product works best can depend on which tire is hitting your car.

A buddy gave let me use his FW1 Fast Wax at a DE and I bought several cans. It works great. I spray it on and wipe off the rubber marks between sessions. It's amazing. Bugs and tar are gone immediately.

Don't bother. It will just get dirty again. Much like making your bed, it's pointless. Go change the oil instead.

I think you really wanted a black car and you are slowly getting there.
