What are some tips for maintaining the aesthetics of a Volkswagen T-Roc?

I just bought a Volkswagen T-Roc and I want to make sure it stays looking new and sleek for as long as possible. What are some good practices I can follow?

Regularly wash your car using a mild soap and soft cloth to avoid scratching the paint.

Avoid parking under trees or in direct sunlight for extended periods of time to prevent sun damage and bird droppings.

Apply a protective coating or wax every few months to maintain the shine and protect against scratches.
