* Wash Car
* Claybar - Clay Magic and Mothers are very good, and easy to find brands.
* Swirl Remover - 3M Swirl Mark Remover, Meguiars # 9, or Meguiars DACP (Dual Action Cleaner Polish)
* Polish/Glaze - Meguiars # 7 is a very good, and easy to find choice.
* Wax - S100 is a very good caranuba. Using something like Klasse or some other stronger wax as a start would be good, and then top it with S100 since the weather`s bad up in NY.
I can`t imagine such a new car being in such bad shape, so these are what I`d reccomend doing. Then just wash every week, and maybe wax every month or so.
