My wife and I are pretty uptight about keeping our cars clean but it's easier to just do it regularly than let it all build up. I love the coin operated car washes with the spot free rinse feature...two dollars and 5 minutes and the car is about 90% clean. Follow that with a quick blast down the freeway to get most of the remaining water off and touch up with a cloth at home and mother's fx spray wax. Rejex twice a year, no exceptions with quick detail spray in between washes midweek.

I like to regularly wash my car, unfortunately my HOA has decided to prohibit anyone in my neighborhood from washing cars in front of our own homes. So i guess i have to take it to a car wash now, there's a place i trust but it will probably mean once a month washes now
