once a week, sometimes more. usually by hand with a microfiber mitt (two of them actually - one to wash and one to dry).

occasionally i'll take it through the new car wash up the street, when i don't have time to wash it myself. i will take the time to dry it thoroughly afterwards though.

I wash mine about once a week. But sometimes it can be up to a month cause of all this rain.

About every two weeks...although, it went about 2 months in between washes this last time! I just could not find the time to wash it. So finally, I took it to the car wash and just paid to have it washed. But I really need to wax it asap. I usually wax it about every 3 months, but again, havent had the time, so it hasnt got waxed since the end of January! I'll be getting on that soon for sure though! Just changed the oil yesterday, and almost washed/ waxed, but it was 95, just to hot for me!

it gets washed everytime it's done raining for a few days. I use Ivory liquid, hot water and a clean sponge for the wash, Wesleys Bleach White and a tire brush to get the raised white letters uber clean. I'll dry it with a super soft towel so it don't get them light surface scratches/swirls. after that I do a Mcguires Quik Mist, douse the tires with Turtle Wax Wet & Black and clean up the American Racing Alloys with Eagle 1 nanotech polish. takes about 2 hours. once a month I'll go the x-tra mile and use Mcguires Paint Cleaner and Mcguires polish. No I'm not paid to endorse Mcguires...making fine automotive detailing products since blah blah blah

Try to do it twice a week, usually in an automatic car wash, though I prefer to do it by hand.

Seems the auto washes never dry it even halfway decently, or manage to clean the back end.
