PFF = PPF
Somebody needs to introduce you to a modern ceramic coating. It makes maintenance so much quicker, the stuff just sheds dirt and grime!
You nailed it!

I'm like this guy. I get wanting to take care of things you spent good money on, which is why I got clear bra for example, but keeping a car clean especially when it's driven frequently is a losing battle, and there's only so much time, money, and effort I'm willing to spend on losing battles. I derive enjoyment from my car by driving it, not ogling it. Reading these forums reminds me how fortunate I am not to have "car OCD". It seems like it takes a huge toll on one's mind and wallet, and I'm probably happier with my most-often dirty car that only gets washed maybe once a month than the typical car OCD person is with their ride that's immaculate except for one tiny little imperfection somewhere they never would have noticed had they not put it under a microscope just to look for flaws.

How about doing a complete professional paint correction and detail, then completely wrap the entire car in Xpel ultimate ppf, and then put Cquartz on top of the pff.....then you can wash it any way you like without being too **** about it, because with the ppf you can never damage the original paint, and makes your car washing and detailing idiot proof.
Brilliant.
Brilliant.
