How often do you wax?

Just waxed the g35 this morning, it's beautiful. It was last waxed 2 weeks ago but it needed another coat because it was in the shop twice in that span and they washed it with strong soap. They also left some spots that needed to be waxed off.
Next weekend the SC gets the wax. Last wax for it was the first week of Oct. A lot of rain and tree droppings have necessitated another wax job. So in other words, I wax it when it needs it.

I use pinnacle signature series II and P21S on my TP IS350. No doubt that pinnacle souveran is best on red and black. Wax every three months and polish once or twice a year. The setup is more important than the wax in terms of looks.

I used Klasse about once every 2 months. Quick detailer in between that. California feather duster also. If it' has light dirt, I just take to a spray wash and wash it down. Hand wash if real dirty. All microfiber towels.
Of course, i have to wipe the brake dust off after every 10miles.
Poorboys for tire shine, zaino leather cleaner, Klasse for wax, Porter cable buffer, mequires wash. I use honda motorcycle cleaner on my exhaust tips, and on my wood grain inside.
Btw, for those that know. Honda motorcycle cleaner is the freaking bomb!

Wax once a month, twice if my car is feeling a little lucky (rrRR) , polish twice a year (once in the summer, once in the winter). I have a black car, and I hate to see it dirty.

During the summer i wax every 2 weeks since i wash it sooooo much during the summer, you have to gleam clean. During the fall wax it about 3 times. Winter time i take it to the car wash 3 times a week and hose it down with the hot water, and only wax twice in the whole winter. But every spring i take out the buffer and buff the car once really good and wax about 4 times in that spring. I have a detailing business so sometimes i let my employees wax it, but only the ones i trained!
