    I just wanna ask how often to clean your car for example engine bay, waxing, interior/exterior detailing, car wash/shampoo, etc..

    for me:
    > engine bay cleaning once a year
    > waxing once a month
    > interior/exterior detailing once a year
    > car wash/shampoo twice a week

    pare-parehas ba tayo? inputs naman para may guide din ako..

    Kung marumi na ang car, once a week, pag di pa every 2 weeks ang pa car wash. Kug sinisipag ako na lang ang mag wash pag di masyadong marumi or kung naka schedule na i-wax ko.

    Pag sinisipag, every other week ang pag wax.

    Ako puno pa nang alikabok at putik kotse ko ngayon coz nagfield work nung sabado (parang offroading na rin kasi sa sobrang pangit ng daan - macadam and gravel roads with large potholes). Car wash na lang once a week with vacuum tsaka dashboard dressing. I still have no time for personal washing kasi ang kulit ng rugrat ko.

    I have always considered cleaning our cars not ask a task but good cardio workout so that's why I make it a point to do it myself all the way down to the interior details.

    I do that at least once a week.

    For the engine though, I go to my suking carwash because of their expertise and equipment.

    That happens once a month.

    Underbody wash is also done by the latter because of their power hoses.

    That is also once a month.

    Nano Wax application I do once a month too.

    same here, madalas ako na din naglilinis ng car ko almost twice a week ako maglinis depende sa gamit at dumi.. pag walang time ayun dinadala ko sa mga car wash, para pati ilalim malinisan.. for detailing sinasabay ko na yung engine cleaning once a year lang. thanks for all your inputs.

    underchassis wash every week para di magkaron ng kalawang, iwas bulok ung body

    kso since bc ako d2 ko lagi sa office once a week na din ang body wash at vacuum ng interior,, waxing every 6months lng dapat un or khit 4mon. nakakagagas ksi ng top coat ng paint un.. shiny nga lagi ubos pintura naman

    but the best thing never leave ur car to the open,, araw at ulan mabilis makapagpapangit sa auto wear and tear kung baga,

    engine bay cleaning: once ko pa lang nagawa ito since nakuha ko sa kasa yung oto. puro pabuga lang ng hangin and papunas-punas lang. natatakot akong madali yung mga electricals eh.

    wax: once a month
    interior detail: hmmm. hindi ko pa ata nagagawa ito ah.
    interior vacuum: once a week
    wash: once a week
    quick detailing: once every other day.

    kaya makinis pa din oto ko.
    i really just do not have the luxury of time to do everything regularly.
