wouldnt make any difference apart from having a spotless car. on the downside, no matter how careful you are, each time you clean the paint work even with a washmitt etc, small swirls will be inflicted so in theory, you may get more swirl marks in a shorter space of time.

If you was to clean your car everyday there would be so many swirls it would look awfull, then have to get it clayed and machine polished.

Lmao.
People moan about the plastic brissel which created swirls, but the new ones are a soft material which doesnt.
People will create more swirls doing a handwash (  ) than a carwash i bet, bar people who have the skillz.

Why would you want to know if you wouldn't need to do it?

I've had my vtr since march. I have polished it 9 times. clean it once a week. looks very shinny. if you keep on top of it to some extent keeps it in better condition and its less work each time and never takes long if you look after it say once a week where as if it builds up with a lot its gunna be a lot of work.. imo

no need to polish it that much at all
cleaning once a week is fine, if your wantin to keep it clean daily try some quick detailer
but i'd never take my car anywhere near a car wash

Don't clean your car with quick detailer if its a bit dirty it's only for dust or very little dirt, i wash mine once or twice a week, mostly i just foam the car with the foam gun and rinse and leave as it keeps the dirt level done.
