If you want your car to stand out it does take time! If there was a srpay that you could put on and wash off, everyone's car would be mint! It does not happen. If you want YOUR car to look nice, you have to put forth some effort, and believe, it will be worth it and people who know cars will see it! If you don't want to do this, then you just have a car! I have a baby!
