Washing & Waxing
How often do you wash & wax your cars? Just wondering how often other people do it.

During the even slightly warm months April- november i wash / wax once a month ish, more would be nice, though i'm a big fan of saving water so i couldn't justify it. I don't wax if there is a drought on, thats just stupid and rude. Always a hand wash and wax.

it was offered at my dealership. they had about 20 New trucks ruined by tree sap so they had a company there that week doing a bunch of the vehicles that they store on that side of the lot. they asked if i wanted to have it done.
they did the interior with some teflon treatment too .. in and out cost $400 total

Once a week wash and wax, except now during the winter. I havent washed it in about a month and the last time I did it was just a spray down at a self-serve car wash. It makes no sence washing a car when theres snow on the roads, because as soon as you get back out on the road its dirty again. I think it's due for another "spray down"
