When I travel with the bike, I carry Pledge Wipes as a simple clean up.

End of season, the bike gets a paste wax shine in her annual "spa treatment" at the bike shop. This seals and protects the finish.
I wax my painted bikes too, for the same reasons I wax my car. I also use Pledge on both my painted bikes and unpainted Ti, as it makes it easier to clean them, and shinier too.
