Spring clay bar and wax.
Clay bar is easy. I have the Mother's kit but there is also one by Meguire's. It is a clay bar and a spray. You spray the surface and rub the clay bar against it. It will feel rather rough and then, baby smooth. It is awesome and cleans your car like never before. Give it a try, it is about $15.00 at any auto parts store!

Doing it after summer is a little backward. Doing it after the buildup of winter grime is when you should do it. get the paint clean again and it will look great through the summer with much less effort.
car looks great 
I love the way my car feels and looks after a good detail...did mine a couple of weeks ago. It took me about 9 hours to wash, clay bar, polish, seal and wax...all my hand. My arm felt like a wet noodle afterwards
