Car doesn't get very dirty here. It doesn't snow, rarely rains, and car is in a garage both at home and at work. It just gets dust on it really.
Every 2 to 3 weeks I do the 2 bucket thing, and vacuum and wipe down the interior (which also stays very clean).
Whole process takes 90 minutes max.
I've got all the stuff for paint correction and polishing, which I've had for 10 years and used exactly once on my old bmw. What an all day hassle. Yeesh. Now I can't be bothered.
As long as the car looks clean that's enough. It's a vw, not a Ferrari 250 at pebble Beach. No one else even notices and good is good enough.
I've even got 4 or 5 tiny dings that I don't care enough to pull, because only I can see them.
Making it mechanically perfect on the other hand... I'll put it up on Stands in a heartbeat if anything doesn't seem right. Lol.
