I forgot to mention another product I really like....Dry Wash by Aero  

Cosmetics.  You simply spray it on, even a dirty airplane, wipe it  

off, and lightly buff the surface to a luster.  Two guys can finish a  

CJ in about 15 minutes.  Then all you need is a California Duster to  

wick off the dust for a perfectly clean and shiny airplane.  They  

also have a version that cuts oil, but I agree with SOB that the  

Simple Green for Aircraft does a nice job on the oil...

Thanks to all for the comments on airplane wax, I am taking notes. CJ is still in the shop but I'm the one doing the work. My Po' Boy Paint Deal was that I did all the stripping, disassembly/reassembly and supplied the spray mask. After spending a few days in the shop, actually 3 separate shops in the old Piper production facility, I can see that airplanes only spend a few hours in the booth at a time, all else is prep and masking, detailing after, etc.

  

 Lucky for me I'm a local with time on my hands so they can work my airplane in to gaps in their schedule.

 Yep!  99.9999% of painting an airplane is the prep work.  The  damn things are so big!  The work is dirty.  No one wants to do it or  have you do it near by.  The EPAer types scream at you!  Your wife  gets short tempered cause you're tracking that smell and gunky removed paint  into her house.  Old ladies at the local WalMark, look at you as if you  some kind of smelly bum.  And you've most likely ruined some good pants and  shirts, which sets off the wife again, resulting in her getting an excuse to go  shopping.

  

 But than again if that new paint comes off in that first year - well you  know it YOUR fault!    But its just money.
