Default Wax longevity

My car is driven a total of about 60 miles per week. 2-3 times per week it gets out of the garage for a joy ride. It rarely sits in the sun for very long parked.

How long can I expect the meguiar's nxt 2.0 coat of wax to last in such a situation? I haven't had to wash my car in a month now and all I do is use QD to remove the bugs after a drive. Dust it off a couple times a week with the california duster.

Default RE: Wax longevity

When I had my GN, I only drove it a few times a month, to car shows, racing, etc. and it slept indoors. I think I would wax it 2-3 times a year and it was fine.

I didn't use any of these "miracle" waxes that are only sold online and not locally. I used some 3M and Meguiers

a few times a year if plenty if your worried or bored feel free to use a liquid wax. they dont last as long but wouldn't hurt as a mid wax boost if you know what i mean
