Okay, friends. Time to 'fess up. How often do you wax your favorite car? Do you like to wrap your arms around your car and wax it frequently, or do you try to eek out that last week, that last day, that last minute of protection? Do you wax your car because you see that it needs it, or do you wax it because you want to keep it it looking at its very best? Which is more important to you, beauty or durability?

Re: How often do you wax your favorite car?
I'm saying once every 2 months...that has been an average for the last 5 or 6 years. Now that my car was just repainted last month and it now has a garage to call home, it might be every few weeks. I've wanted a garage for YEARS and now I finally get one, so excited!NOTE: Post count does not reflect actual detailing knowledge.

Re: How often do you wax your favorite car?
Every two months here too.
I like to wax for both shine and protection, but I usually re-apply before the previous layer has worn off, so that probably means I do it for "beauty" more than protection.Originally posted by BluelineI own a silver vehicle and a black vehicle owns me. The black one demands attention, washing, detailing, waxing and an occasional dinner out at a nice restaurant. The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.

Re: How often do you wax your favorite car?
I spray wax probably once a week, sometimes 2 times, sometimes I miss it for a week or so.
I do a legitimate paste or liquid wax application probably once every 2 months. I Last Touch, followed by UQD every other day on average.
Needless to say, it's not often you see me cruisin' without some obscene amount of shine around me

Originally posted by Mr Mustang View Postonce every three or four months, because she sits outside...and I know she'll be dirty soon. If I had a garage it would probably be alittle more often, I realize that may sound backwards
I presume you mean, it becomes easier when you have a garage and you know ur work it not going to waste???

Re: How often do you wax your favorite car?
Because my car is in the elements 99% of the time I paste was #26 every month and use x-press wax after weekly washes when I can.The Best Last Step, is the step backwards you take to admire your work!

Re: How often do you wax your favorite car?
I'm waxing every 3 weeks right now because my car is still new and I enjoy getting out there and polishing it. I think I will probably level off at about once a month down the road.
