Since its my daily driver, I hand wash it once a week...detail spray the bird crap and dead bugs stuck on whenever I see it, and wipe brake dust away every 2- 3 days....I can't seem to keep the swirls away though! I was devistated when I saw swirls after 6 months of such anal washing...and I also use the two bucket grit guard wash method...I even use two different colored wash mitts - one for the top half of the car, hood, roof and trunk, and one separate mitt for the bottom dirtier half of the car. I find that a must-do in order to keep from spreading dirt to the hood and trunk..but then againI still seem to find swirls on sunny sunny days.

I use synwax to wax her every 3-4 months, and that does a great job at hiding the swirls for some time
