With my car I wash it during the winter months at least 2-3 times a week with tutle wax car wash....its grooooovy, then if time allows try and wax at least every 6 months to once a year. Not to mention detailing of oem body kit headlights and everything else, and remember simple green oWnZ for engine bays.

Use ZAINO wax... I live 'n die by that stuff.. it's one of the best.. maintains the shine for a long time and doesn't wash off w/ur car wash
