Does Meguiar's have anything to help prevent this kind of build-up?

It seems to happen mainly around this time of year, and man do those leaves stick, I would have expected them to slide right off the paint with PP365 and all the D115 that's on there

I would recommend a smokey burnout, followed by a 100MPH run down the highway.

But I'd say it works better in a rental car though:

I'll have to try the 100 mile-per-hour Sprint tomorrow going to work

Yup A blast with a leaf blower might work, then UWWA as needed, if at all.

I'm not too sure about the leaf blower ... or even the fun of going 100 down the highway would be enough to do it, if you look close at the pic, you'll see that it's also raining, which has glued the leaves to the car

Not to worry. When the rain stops it will dry and all the leaves will blow away.

Don, if the leaves are sticky (I've had the same problem at times with leaves and flowers, etc), a strong rinse with sprayed water is best of course, maybe a touch with a shampoo mitt in some areas, followed by the leaf blower, and then some QW. I've even done the rinse while it's raining during a lull, allowing the rain to then rinse away any potential water spots. Still, when things dry, some UWWA/QW will be great. Obviously, moving the car will reduce the buildup.
