Alright Autop's, what exactly do you do, religiously, each day to your personal vehicles?

Windows?

Dash?

Quick detail?

Etc.........

Im just a little curious how anal some of us are..............
 
Yea..I check for bird poop or dents. I keep a very small long fiber fluffy brush and MF in the car and wipe the dash for dust pretty much every other day.
 
I do a full walkaround for scratches, dings, etc every time I get into my car, and then usually I try to QD the rims every day, my car's got pretty bad brake dust. It's black, so I try to avoid using QD's on the paint unless the car hasn't been driven and it's just garage dust.
 
Daily?





Shoot, nothing more than a ding check.



I like to run my LSPs through the gauntlet so I leave everything else on there :). I wash 'er every 5-7 days and so far, nothing has etched.
 
Nothing daily, twice a week it gets a wash and a QD, vacuum once a week with windows cleaned and a general wipedown.

Ditto, couldn't have said it better in my case as well. Although, for me, my LSPs are really put through the ringer, as I can't generally wash until about every 2-3 weeks. Other than that, car gets nothing, except maybe some light cleaning of the interior.
 
I clean the windshields on a near-daily basis, but that's about it detailing-wise.



But I *do* perform a cursory pre-flight ;) inspection every time: all four tires look OK; weird puddles; that sort of thing..
 
The daily walkaround during the warm-up and the awe staring like the first day is almost unavoidable., Besides that, most of my cars are black which equals to instant dust, a great tool which I use a lot, kind of daily, is an electric blower which is permanently connected in my garage. Just part of the pre-flight, you outta try it !!!! :spot
 
For me I usually try and QD every couple of days depending if the car has been driven in the rain. If so, then its a complete wash maybe once a week. I keep a swifter duster cloth in all my cars and do an occassional dusting of the dash etc maybe once or twice during the week.



You have to do something in traffic jams :chuckle:
