Wax can do it every week also can. Polish once a year; a real proper polish.

For car wash and clay, I use Perma Glass. For wax and scratch remover, I use Turtle Wax.

Polishing, I do it outside.

I use the common Hard Shell wax.

Wax it wet is more or less works like quick detailer.

Haha, this is a common one. Most people when they wax car, they apply a lot of wax into the car thus creating a thick layer of buff that is very hard to remove. Don't apply too much, just a thin coat and it should be easy to wipe off.

Another tip is do it panel by panel. This way, is much easier to wipe off and you won't miss any spots. That's what I do most of the time.

Quick detailer is not a all-in-one solution. It's more or less for saving time. If your paint is super good well taken care of, then all you need is quick detailer to maintain the lush wet shine.

Haha, I'm merely saying that waxing every week is safe. Polishing on the other hand is not.

I don't clay or wax every week as well. Unless if I see my car is caked with dust from the constant KL rain, I'll start claying and waxing. Mostly just a quick one not into detail as I don't have any pro-tools.

Paste wax always last longer than liquid wax.
Or if not then synthetic sealant.
