For the first 6 months I used to wash my Z once a week on the weekend and wax it once a month ... pretty standard in my book. Now that I've owned it for close to a year and now that winter is arriving, I've been a little more lazy. Trust me, you'll all get lazy and you'll all just not care anymore. (Or care as much).

Made the switch to Zaino products in August 2003. Went at it hard and heavy for the month or so. Washing and polishing daily. See results below
That is a beautiful Brick Ron!

Not true at all. I have had my Saleen for over a year and i would still wash and wax it 2-3 times a week. And i would only drive the thing 2-3 times a week so i would basicaly wash/ax it every time i used it I hate dirty cars and i dont believe in car washes NEVER have i taken any of my cars to a car wash.

Usually once a week, depending on how much I drive her, and obviously how much it rains over here. Recent pics posted below

Since I took delivery on 9/19 I've washed at least once a week (sometimes more depending on the weather). On 11/1 I started the Zaino process, and she's now up to 4 layers, or 2 coats a week. After I put a few more coats on during the coming weeks and establish a base, I'll taper off on the weekly polishing.
