Being that I am a Detailer, my car gets hand washed and hand/air-hose dried 1-2 times a week and hand waxed every 3 months on average.

So my question to you, since a small percentage of us have access to garaged wash bays for any time of the year, is how often do you wash your car?

Also, HOW do you wash it? IE: Do-it-yourself Car wash, Yourself in the driveway, Drive through car wash, or have someone detail it?

The poll will be on how often you wash it, just post on how you do it.

DIY wash and wax about every 2 weeks. In between I spray it off at the DIY car wash.

I live on a dirt road, so everytime I drive down the street my car gets dusty.:( When it rains, muddy...:roll:

So I wash my car in the driveway as often as I can, but I haven't washed the hatch in about 3 weeks and it is reaaaaally dirty.

My car gets washed once a week at the minimum.

Waxed every 3 months or so.

Usually once every 1.5 weeks. Sometimes sooner and some times later depending on my schedule. The brake dust gets really bad after a week. Thats about the only reason it gets washed so often. :roll:

i guess you want to keep the thread with the poll... locking this since there's a duplicate.
