I wash my car 3-4 times a week, vacuum it out once a week, and armor all the dash once a week. I also wax and polish it once a month.

I wish that I could clean my car more often than I do. I'll usually vacuum it and clean the glass about once a week though.

I used to be obsessive with keeping my car clean. I just don't have the time anymore. Every once in a while I clean it top to bottom. Windows cleaned, interior wiped clean, vacuum, shampoo motor, wash and dry + tire dressing. Takes me apx. 4 or 5 hours to do, sometimes less. I've been able to do that once this year. Sometimes it gets a quick wash in the driveway, or I run it through the touchless wash at the gas station. It's a garage kept summer only car, so it stays pretty clean.

I wash the Genesis usually once a week. The interior stays pretty spotless but I'll run some armor all over it real quick if it gets a little dusty.
