KMB60, you are correct the conditions you drive in and how often you drive has lots to do with your detail schedule. For exmaple I live in the mid west, near Chcago where winter's wrath is extreme. If you drive your car everyday, I suggest doing the full treatment detail at least twice a year. That involves hand wash/claying/deep cleaning/ polishing/ seal. In between those details you should use a product I sell called poly seal, it has some of the polymers that are in my paint sealant which will prolong the life of the base coat of the sealant. Use it say once a month after you wash. In short, use a pait seal, twice a year, along with the other steps for a full detail. polyseal once a month. Be careful about grabing off the shelf any kind of cleaner wax (BAD) or abrasive polish, any of these two products will remove the base you worked so hard applying during the full detail. Stick with the basics. My web site has more info. Gary
