Cleaning up the Stang!
 
Wondering when you guys Clean up your Stangs?

Once a week, sometimes twice if it gets dirty. I've used the car wash when I'm tight for time, but only self-serve, never the drive through kind. I keep the micro cloths in the car so I can dry and do some quick interior cleans when necessary.

I try to keep on top of it once a week, but use the california car duster threwout the week if i take the stang out. Sometimes that doesn't work out so well LOL! But i do try to keep the car washing part down to a minimum. I think i washed maybe total of 3 times all season.

Cal duster and interior on a daily basis, hand clean with waterless wash 2 or 3 times a month, polish/wax once a month and before shows.

I don't drive mine in the rain, and it spends most of it's time in the garage. I think I washed it about 4 times this year.

About the same here. I use a California Car Duster before every drive as we live in a pretty dusty town.

Oooh Ouch....I never use any kind of duster. I've heard they work well, but man I just spent a whole lot of hours/days getting every swirl out of my paint with compound, and I think that would be the recipe to get them back.

Oh yeah, and I wash once in a while, but don't drive mine much, it spends most of the time in the garage, but in the summer it gets washed every weds afternoon, right before the local cruise night starts. I wax 2-3 times a year.

I've used them for years with no issues but I'll wait for Snakebite to chime in and see what he says

Do you not notice those tiny little swirls in the sun at all?
