If doing wash, multiple polishing steps, LSP and QD, then up to 10 on the exterior, including glass and wheels.
Interior takes about 3 or 4.

i depends on the number of steps i take on the paint. a polish, cleaner, and wax will take 4-7 but if multiple polishing steps, glazing, sealing, etc are included, there will be more. 1-2 for the interior if its in good shape, more if its not.

1-2 WW`s for drying, 3-4 for exterior (5-7 if with polishing), 1-3 for wheels/tires, 4 on glass (2 exterior and 2 interior), and 2-5 on interior. So all in all, about 11-21.

Usually around 10 for a full detail. QD, usually 2, sometimes 3.

Polish and seal the surface with about 8....Remember, you have 8 sides per towel.....

Thats quite a lot.
I am using an average of 3 - 4 for dirty stuff like the wheels and engine. about 4 - 6 for exterior.

I don`t use mf on the wheels or interior. Terry cloth for both.
about 2-3 ww for drying and anywhere from 7-10 regular
mf`s: depending on whether or not I have to do any claying,
polishing. Included in that are at least 2 for wax removal, and
a few more for stuff happens (towels falling to the ground,
picking up grease on the towel, etc.)
