yes worth adding.
Washing is when most damage to the paintwork occurs. Do it your self, don't use sponges (they trap grit and will just scratch the clear coat) and don't allow anyone else to do it including the dealers.
No machine washes and certainly no cheap hand wash places for £10 / $10.
I find I have to wax about 3-4 times a year. I use autoglymm HD wax myself - obviously loads of other good products out there as well. Just a thin layer is all thats required.
Once a car is waxed, it is much easier to wash and in general will not attract as much muck as an unwaxed one will.
