I use a water filter which I got from Vertar years ago. It reduces the water marks but doesn't eliminate them altogether. Or the easiest option is wash the car in the rain, no water marks then.

I've long since ditched the chamois, and those blade things are scary looking. Get yourself a proper drying towel

I use these and find them excellent: http://www.microfibermadness.de/eng/product_drymec...

As above, a quick detail spray after drying should remove the water spots, but I'd also suggest using a microfibre drying cloth rather than a chamois or blade.

As above for me too. Buy a few good drying towels to pad-dry it and you'll be fine. If you get any post clean drips or water marks just get some quick detailer on it with a microfibre and then get a good synthetic wax on it before finishing it off with a layer or two of carnuba smile

Try some AutoGlym Super Resin Polish too as I used that on one of mine last weekend and was shocked how good it is.
