    On Sundays, I clean my car inside and out...It will take me from 4pm until almost 7 in the evening. Sometimes, I even think of having my car cleaned sa car wash na lang...How about you guys, how many hours would it take you to clean your car? Talagang clean everything inside and out - wash, wipe dry the car, wax, vacuum, wash/clean the engine area, etc... Thanks in advance

    none. I just go have it done at the nearby car washes who charges P60/P70 per wash. In-and-out in 15 to 20 minutes.

    I would also want to have it done by the car wash, they have the proper equipment and the like, not to mention that by doing it myself I will be using so much water and wasting it in the process specially since I am only using a garden hose, since I don't have any pressure washer... Thanks any way. If you have it done by the car wash shop how many times on a week would you have that cleaned by them?

    An hour if only the outside but if including the interior and carpet 2 hours would be sufficient.

    Car. Larger vehicles (like SUV, XP, vans, etc) are charged more.

    I clean it my own. But it has to be cleaned thoroughly at least once a month thats why i take it to a carwash. iba parin ang linis ng pressurized kontra sa hose.

    doing it myself. one by one because it'll be difficult if i do it at the same time. doing it with ease using regular garden hose (washing and drying the exterior including matting and all door trims) takes about 1.5-2 hours.

    interior using vaccum and some detailing is once a month for at least 2 hours, another 2 hours with the engine bay and under chassis with the help of my pressure washer.

    around 1.5-2 hours, all by myself. labas pa lang yon! hassle yong matutuyo na yong ibang parts bago mo pa mapunasan (dahil nga mag-isa lang ako), so magkakawater marks. i only did it twice.

    tapos non sa big bert's (ortigas) na ko nagpapalinis. for P100, sulit! kasi hindi lang basta-basta linis. talagang chinecheck ng supervisor/manager nila yong gawa ng mga tao nila.

    As much as my wife allows me to! :D
    It could be as short as 1 hour (wash + QD), to as long as 6 hours (2-step...wife away visiting my in-laws...). Hehehe

    i spend 3 hours sa auto ko. pag sinipag, 4 kasama vacuum. pag kasama ang pagwawax, plus 3 hours pa. hirap maglinis ng malaking auto

How many hours do you spend cleaning your car?
