Mine last got washed the week before PVS, s'pose I'm gonna have to clean it at somepoint before Trax too

Think I've give up on polishing now, paintwork's that bad it doesn't seem to make a difference I just like the fact that the dirt hides it now, when it's clean it just shows everything up

about once every 2-3 months.
Too many imperfections in paintwork etc, pisses me off.

I do now, 35 miles a day come rain or shine

I don't have a car good enough to bother cleaning, I used to clean (with a bucket and sponge) my Golf but I never polished it.

wash - once every two months or so, depending on how dirty tbh

even then its a quick jet wash at work

polish, maybe twice a year


white looks so bad dirty though
