Wash too much...? - Saxperience

JamesR^m · 9th July 2009, 17:21

Just wondering, say if you washed your car every day would it have any adverse effects?

I know you wouldnt need too, but if you did what would happen...?

Chris91 · 9th July 2009, 17:38

It would fall to pieces.

Nah... on a serious note, I haven't got a clue!

JimoVTR · 9th July 2009, 17:39

You'd get a very shiny car

iw_laurence · 9th July 2009, 17:40

you would get really wrinkley fingers...

JamesR^m · 9th July 2009, 18:02

Jesus, is it possible to get a serious reply lately, jeez.

after having to have welding done on my sax for the mot(both inner rear arches). i'd try and keep it as dry as possible.

i think washing to much will actually remove the shine of the paint, obviously their is chemicals in everything you use... but im no expert so maybe contact one of the detailing guys since theres quite a few people around intent on spamming to get a nice and high post count

if you dont drive it everyday, maybe consider a cover to prevent having to wash it

a bit of lighthearted fun never hurt anyone

plus at least for a change the spam is on topic

a cover being put on and taken off a lot over time might well mark the paint depending on the material. plus as someone said above, getting the car wet EVERY day may make certain parts rust faster

i think i dont wash mine enough

Lloydie · 9th July 2009, 19:37

I dont see why anyone would want to wash it every day. I wash it once a week. But recently its been like once every 2 weeks as it just rains directly after i clean it so theres no point!

liam-o · 9th July 2009, 21:24

get a garage

also, you would find it hard to wash it properly every day anyway

true it does rain, but i wash it once a week anyway (thats what weekends are made for)

JamesR^m · 9th July 2009, 21:30

I was just wondeirng, i wash once a week

And its in a garage, surprising how dirty it gets just sitting in there though

saxokid100 · 11th July 2009, 03:39

Grav · 11th July 2009, 09:28

Went through a phase of washin mine every other day for about 3month and never noticed any difference. Calmed donwn now and just wash it about once a week now

as long as you dont use harsh washing products you will be fine, just stay away from citrus based cleaners as they will strip away wax and sealants leaving the paint un-protected.

i wash using chemical guys wash and wax and when its not @ the bodyshop i wash every couple of days

saxovtsmad · 11th July 2009, 10:36

clean your garage if your gets dirty in there lol

MikeYost · 11th July 2009, 11:56

wash mine once a week.. every day could take shine off the paint.. depends what products you use really.
