That's why this place rocks

It appears that those of us in Pasadena are pretty **** about our paint

Check out autopia.org as well. A LOT of detailing gurus over there.

It won't hurt to wax your car every time you wash. I wash my car about every two weeks, and usually reapply fresh carnauba each time. I've recently gotten a bottle of Optimum's Car Wax (which is a spray, but it's awesome!) and use it as a 'booster' when I don't feel like applying another layer of carnauba.

Just remember, if you don't properly prepare the surface i.e. clay/polish, you may not get the results you are expecting to get.
