With what frequency do you wash your own car?

As the question implies, on your daily driver/main vehicle, how often do you find yourself washing it?

 

[TroyScherer]

I always try and wash it at least once a week. Sometimes I get lucky and can get it twice depending on how busy I am. I have tried ONR to speed up the wash process but I feel the bonded contaminates I get on my vehicles are more than what ONR was made for. So it is always a 2BW.

I wash mine once a week sometimes I'll let it go two weeks if it's not bad and I'm busy.

 

[AutopiaTech]

Once a week. :bigups

 

[CT3]

Once a week. That seems to keep it looking freshly detailed pretty much all of the time.

 

[Pats300zx]

Once a week for me.

 

[CH.Detailing]

Not often enough.

I think I'm like the shoemaker whose children have no shoes. After driving 3 rounds a week from Indy to Owatonna MN. and working on friends and family cars my DD doesn't get much TLC. The Firebird hides in the garage but the F-250 sits out in the weather 24/7 . I refuse to take it to the local tunnel wash so about every other month is what it gets. Now next month after I retire and put my "Distinctive Auto Detail' logo on the rear door glass it will be as clean as I can keep it to show off my work. LOL.

Typically 2 to 3 weeks.

Your car must get awfully dirty in a week's time. :rofl

My biggest fear is water spots. I don't know why but they scare me to the point of having nightmares! So I wash my car every time it gets wet and I probably use a no-rinse like ONR or DP's at least twice a week (besides soap and water). It's an obsession. I am actually going to buy a beater car so my Speed3 can sit inside the garage and stay clean! :wall

I like to keep the paint shiny and slippery, gives me better gas mileage. :rockon

Once a week for the DD Mazda that lives outdoors, once a whenever for the garage queen BMW that gets driven maybe twice a month.

I have 2 cars to wash and they get wash about once every 2 weeks if possible. It's summer time and rains 3-5 times a day here. When it's not summer it's once a week here :yay

 

[Mr. Gloss]

Once a week and it's always a conventional wash, usually followed by a layer of Hydro. I have a heated garage and continue weekly washes throughout the winter months.

Washing my cars isn't work. To me, it's exercise, relaxation and accomplishment all in one bundle.

I just got back from a 3 day trip to Cincy and it's getting washed after work today.

 

[Jokeman]

Every couple months. No time for my own junk! My wifes maybe once a month.

Couldn't have said it better myself. :rockon

 

[Dr Oldz]

When it is dirty. Can be 3 times a week. I hate driving a dirty vehicle. It is also nice when your clients see that your vehicle is always clean and shiny.

I usually wash the truck about once a week. In the summer if it has not rained I will Quick Detail it daily sometimes just to get the light dust off and keep it looking like new.

 

[C. Charles Hahn]

Usually once a week, maybe once every couple of weeks if my truck has been sitting under the carport and not been anywhere (which happens pretty often, honestly).
