How Often Do You Wax
 
With winter ending, I was just wondering how often you guys wax your R?

I do it about 5 times a year.

I typically wax 4 times a year, before winter, after winter, and two times during the rest of the year... My car sits outside though... http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsad.gif

I used to wax every month. Now it's every 3 months or so. http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emdgust.gif

Twice a year, once before winter, once before summer. Car is garaged most of the time.

once a month, and I feel that i still neglect it. Optimally, i wanna wax twice a month and wash every week.

Re: How Often Do You Wax (fso_BamBam)
 
4-5 times a year, not the best job but a quick wax. Its also garaged.

I'd say 3-4 times a year, with a touch-up from time to time on the panels that get exposed to the elements a lot, roof, hood, etc...

Once a year, but I do an All-in-One wax, and then put about 4-5 layers of glaze on top to seal it all up. works great.

Re: How Often Do You Wax (Flux)
 
every other week

Re: How Often Do You Wax (Flux)
 
It comes down to how often you drive the car though. I wash it about once a month, wax it every quarter. I drive about 700 miles per month though.

Re: How Often Do You Wax (citanest)
 
I've never waxed my car, but damn, that sounds like a good idea

Eric R 04-15-2002 05:26 PM

Re: How Often Do You Wax (citanest)
 
I wax it every three weeks or once a month. Because I wash it once a week and sometimes twice a week. Depends on the weather conditions. http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsmilep.gif

Re: How Often Do You Wax (Flux)
 
I wash every week. Alternate between detailing the outside or inside.

I may have to try that Zymol Ken, any clue where to pick it up. I think I heard car boutique carrs it but I'm not sure.


I'd have to say three times a year, or per summer actually. But car is garaged and not driven from October to March http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emthup.gif
