#1 RULE NEVER, NEVER, NEVER PUT IT THRU AN AUTOMATIC CARWASH unless it's a touchless wash, and they only do a so-so job. It's BLACK it has to be clean to look black. A good polish like turtle wax ice helps hide the scratchs.
I have a car wash/detailer hand wash my car every friday while I'm at work. It get's the week's salt off the car.

If time and cost aren't really a factor, I'd throw Zaino (http://www.zainostore.com) products into the consideration mix. I've been using them for about 5 years now.
