How often do you wash your ride?

[btkeenan]

Try to wash it once every other week. Black gets so dirty so fast. Usually takes me 2-3 hours per time with full interior cleaning (leather cleaning, conditioner, vacuuming), tire cleaning and dressing, and 2 bucket wash.

Switch to ONR Wash and Wax, and cut that in half. Takes me an hour or so to do the same thing

I average about 6 months between washes. I live on a gravel road in the boonies so no real reason to keep it clean.

Washing mud off will help the truck to last longer. Mud traps moisture and accelerates the rusting rockers. The rust fairly quickly no matter what you do but keeping it clean is better. If it is just dusty then not as bad.

Mine gets washed once a week for sure

Hmm I'll take a look. Any better than the chemical guys comparable product? Just bought the gallon jug of chemical guys soap and silk shine so I'll probably be set for a while. Also been hearing a lot of good stuff from Adams on here so will have to take a look at their stuff also.

Optimum No Rinse Wash & Wax, no rinse car wash, rinse free car wash, optimum no rinse

Washes and Waxes at the same time. no need to drag a hose out, no need to use a second bucket, and cuts your time in half. Lots of professionals use it, which is what got me onto it. All of their products I've tried have worked great.

the two bucket wash doesn't take more time and for my dirty truck, it's the only way to go. now if you have a clean truck to start with just a lite dust I'd just rinse and apply detail spray. I've never tried chemical guy's they don't seem to be on here so that is probably why. Adams has been great and all questions get answered.

Forget the 2 bucket wash and just use a new sponge/noodle mitt for each section. Put the dirty one in your empty second bucket and then start fresh. Mitts are so cheap and then there is zero chance of marring with a dirty mitt unless you dont change it often enough.
