I wash my Acura about once per year, and my bike maybe twice. Both are garage kept, and Oregon doesn't salt. I'm not sure I can be much help in this regard.
After a hand wash, I towel dry and then apply a carnuba wax to the paint and glossy plastic. Don't use wax on plastic that has a texture as it just turns things white until the wax wears off. Using a dry towel, I then remove the bulk of the wax, bringing the finish to a shine.
OT- but I wonder why stainless steel isn't used? Does the paltry 11% chromium really drive the price up that much? I actually like the unpainted look of the Delorean.
