Photo's can be misleading though. They don't show stone chips, swirls, scratches, flaking lacquer...

Having said that, I think it's worthwhile having a good car cleaning routine, it does help preserve the lustre of the car.

With my cars, due to my work pattern, they only get washed fortnightly. With a quick wax done monthly.

Works out on average about an hour a week, which includes setting the pressure washer up, untangling the hose etc etc!

Although twice a year they get clayed & machine polished.
