    Getting really stained marks out from under the sides (sills)

    There is quite a heavy dirt level at the sides, at very lowest part of the car, almost under it. I can get everywhere to shine up lovely and gleaming, but near the bottom at the sill area on the outside, there is grime which I cannot shift no matter how hard I scrub! Any tips?

    Water Marks

    Whats the best way to avoid water marks whilst washing the car? I've got some decent drying towels but it just seems to be drying too quickly. Am I just going to have to wait for the sun to go down a bit? :shrug:

    Wax marks

    I waxed the car a few weeks back with Nattys but now, obviously where I missed bits it is covered in white streaks which I can't budge off. Is it just a case of keep washing it until they come off?
