I wash my car twice a week and a wax every 2-3 months. That is probably the reason that my car is looking as new as it was from the showroom . I vacuum it once a week, and Turtle Wax 2000 the interior every week to two weeks.
How often do you guys do this?

I used to wash mine very often. Not anymore. I really don't have much time with college and work and everything else in between. I'm still averaging about once a week though. (usually on a Friday) Waxing my car doesn't help at all. My car came from the "L" factory so the paint is not in the best of shape. Waxing brings out all of the imperfections, lol.

 

too often

I haven't washed my car in almost 2 months..

When she doesn't work properly, she doesn't get washed, although, I don't have any excuses for the month and a half pervious to the last 2 weeks

 

Vacuum every week?? Do you guys throw a bucket of sand in the car every week or something? I always tap my feet before I get into my car so I dont bring much dirt or sand into the car.. and I have floormats which I shake every 3-4 weeks.. And vacuum every 6 months, and its barely in need of one

 

The water conservation people had me put in jail. I usually detail my car every 3 days. My family has me seeking help.

You guys are over waxing your cars, you'll end up messing up the paint. I used to wax mine every week or 2, now in between I use car polish on it.

i haven't washed my camaro since oct. 3rd, (just before the Midwest F-Body Association fall cruise) and I haven't washed it since then, though I've cleaned the wheels twice (had to after basically a day of Autocross @ the fall cruise) and I drive it daily, so it's pretty dirty, though the rain lately has kept it somewhat clean.

umm about once a year, i use vynal touch on my interior, i dont believe in those greasy silicone based products, i get the vynal touch from the GM dealer for about 7$ a can


o ya failed t mention i drive my car about once a year

otherwise once every 2 days

 

When I first got it, I would wash it like every weekend. Now, I wash it every 2-3 weeks, depending on when it's gonna rain next and how the weather is. Before winter, I do a big clean, where I remove the seats, vaccuum everything, clean the seats, dust everything, wash and polish the car, etc.. I don't really have too much time to wash it every week with school and work.

Once a month at the most. I just keep it dusted. The only reason I wash it at all is because of brake dust on the rims....
