Just curious how often you all wash your cars? Wax your cars? Polish your cars? What brand/products do you use for each?

 

during summer, wash every 2-3 days, wax every few weeks. wash= dish detergent (ive heard its really bad for the paint, but my dads used it on his 745li and all his other cars hes had and hes never had a problem, he says its very mild and shoudlnt hurt paint)

 

whenever it gets dirty of course, maybe once a week at least once every 2 weeks, as for doing a full wax maybe once every month and a half or so (for a full turtle wax neway)

 

Wash every week, Wax every two weeks (S100 Wax), Polish/Wax Every 4 weeks. I claybar once every year or so, and wash/swirl remove/polish/wax every 6 months or so.

 

I have had several people say that dish soap,the degreaser in it eats the wax off your car. Donno.. I have always used car soap.

 

Yup.

 

yea it is a degreaser, wont hurt paint but if you'll notice there probably isn't any beading up in the rain either

 

I have been detailing for years now and i wash 2 times a week, wax every sunday, it's part of my new car religion. Use meguiars car wash, you can buy by the gallon and it's concentrated. Also, twice a year i remove my wax coat with simple green and start new, or i do that if i want to try a new product or do some buffing. Zanio Bros products work best, but i charge upwards of 400 dollars for those details, because they take an entire weekend, but the car will look new gaurunteed. Use mothers carnauba for everyday shine and protection, that's the best bang for the buck. Oh yeah, and never forget to clean the doorjambs.

 

Yep... Meguires car wash by the gallon to wash once or 2x a week. I wax using either Mothers Yellow Wax or 3M show car glass polish. Each about 15.00 a bottle. Don't use Turtle Wax... it's too gritty and will actually swirl your paint. Trust me, my best friend owns a custom car paint shop and he knows his sh!t. But then again... I'm just some dumb broad.

 

I use armor all! haha
