The good old Car Wash thread lol

[IceAge]

Okay so who here cleans their rough and tough off road bad ass 4x4 Jeep on a regular basis? And yeah I am a car guy, truck guy, suv guy, motorcycle guy and most Importantly a Jeep Guy. So to start the poll I will cast my vote. And oh if we are talking cars that’s a different poll. And for my cars yeah they get a bath a lot more than my Jeeps and my latest addition to my car addiction is this which I use Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wax which I just may have to use on my Jeeps.
And yeah that’s the Gladiator in the background staying dirty.

Good looking Challenger. I don't have that kind of patience. My Jeep will get a bath when I finally get tired of looking at it like it is. Between the long ass gravel drive and the red mud that is tracked from every farm field in the county, it's almost pointless.

Nice Hellcat!

Yeah I like it and I had the 16 Hellcats as well and sold them last year. I am a Mopar Ram Jeep nut lol.

What's the news on the Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wax? hand wash the car then ceramic wax it, spray on, wipe off? and its way better than normal waxing, but more forgiving to application and expense as compared to actual "ceramic coating"?

I'm a freak, I clean mine after every drive....but I have issues.

Lots of hellcat guys here!

Having done more restoration and repair work than I care to recall - I spend as much if not more time doing what needs to be done to prevent or slow rust and rot. So many keep 'em pretty and shiny and blinding and wax the crap out of them - and they rot from below while people ohh and ahh over the paint.
So I keep all of the drain holes open, boxed areas clean and those floor pan seams cleaned out. You can repaint a car cheap, relatively speaking, but can't easily re-body one.
I spend as much time washing off the underside as I do the top side. I have a car that is two years shy of being 40 and it's TOTALLY rust-free. The underside is clean. You can wipe your hands across the underside and not get them dirty.

I wash my Gladiator about once a month, however I park it over the lawn sprinkler after every beach trip.

Mine get cleaned after each drive too.

It’s just therapeutic for me when I clean/detail the Jeep. Put on my headphones and go to work on it.

I’ll leave dirt sit a while but will power wash mud any chance I get.

Wow guys, nice cars!!!!

I realized I really hate washing my cars/trucks/MCs. I like it when it's done, but not really doing it. I wash my truck after some dirt driving. It's super dry and dusty this time of year, so unless I want my Sting-gray to look more like Gobi (nttatwwt), it will get a wash. But not usually in-between.

My 82 SX4 gets washed any time it gets dusty otherwise the dust scratches the paint. If it gets dusty then a light rain, it looks like heck.
I try to keep it covered in between drives to keep dust off but don't always get it done.
It's as clean under as it is in the engine bay and top-side.

The truck is a truck - I try to wash it now and then when it looks dirty but luckily unless it's mud, the blue doesn't show dirt too bad.
When I had the windshield replaced the dealership actually washed it up pretty good! I was surprised.

 

[rr11]

I wash my JT every two weeks or so. The sand is not a problem, no mud on the beach but the bugs are a pain. The body juices in love bugs will remove paint.

 

[j.o.y.ride]

I just don't care if my cars are dirty and certainly don't have the interest to do that level of cleaning work.
