    Re: How often do you wax your favorite car?

    Well if I have the time I will wax every other wash, so it usually ends up being every two weeks or so. Weather plays a big role in it too.

      Re: How often do you wax your favorite car?

      So from what I'm reading so far, it is anywhere from one to three months before waxing again. If I wash my car every week and my car is parked in the garage at night, is it safe to say my NXT 2.0 paste wax will most likely last at least a month (protection)?

      Thanks

        Marky, under the conditions you specify, I think it is safe to say that NXT is going to last a lot longer than four weeks.

            I wax my car once every two weeks, to keep it shiny and well protected!

                  I tend to wax once to twice a year but the car is maintained with QD periodically. I probably do less than 2000 miles a year, doesnt come out in the wet and its always kept in a garage.

                    Hand wax once a month. Touch up wax every other week. Clay and polish twice a year(no garage, my stuff sits outside). I go offroad too, so a little extra protection, goes a long way.

                      Outside of winter, I try to seal my car every 2-3 months. During the winter I will apply another layer just about any time the temperature gets above 40 degrees to add more protection from the salt. Sometimes that gap in time is two weeks, sometimes two months. Depends on Mother Nature. I have often been told sealants don't bond well under 40 degree weather. Not sure if it is true but I generally stick with it.

                          I put on 48 layers (one a day) for 48 straight days, then I take two days off and start again.

                          Actually... about once a month, although I hit it with NXT Spray wax at least once every two weeks.

                            Once a month in Toronto during the winter? You must have a nice heated garage...

                              I should have said that with an asterisk. Once a month on average, but less in the winter, although we did get up to 50 yesterday so it was easily "waxing weather" without the need of a heated garage.
