I used Turtle Wax spray. The trick is to spray then entire car after the final rinse while the car is still wet. Very easy, works great, and no towel burn.
My car is 3 years old. See how shiney it is? :)

Yes, particularly when they're small like my Caterham Seven; when you're vertically challenged like me (5'4"), even I can reach over the bonnet. OK I drive other cars too, but I used to drive my caterham as my only car before the kids arrived. In terms of wax, i use Autoglym products; I'm not quite fanatical enough to use zymol and pay the prices. If Autoglym is ok for Aston Martin, Bentley, TVR, Jaguar etc, then who am I to argue. If I owned a Pebble Beach pre-war Alfa, Bugatti or Talbot-Lago, the I would use zymol; nut then I might just pay someone to do it if I could afford a Bugatti (PS I live 5 miles from the Bugatti Owners Club home).
