what you want to do is maintain the car rather than wash it very time it gets dirty. if you want to maintain the car, you would have to wipe her down everyday and clean off the bird poop asap as it happens. most of the time, people just can't keep up with the weather and birds.

what i do is use the ultimate quick detailer at least 3 or 4 times out of the week and use the california duster to get all the dust off the car and use the UQD afterwards. this helps maintain the car and gives it some protection

if you manage to maintain the car everyday, it's rather pointless to wash the car. and you can probably do it just once a month or before you wax your car.

Never pay for something that you can do yourself! You put more pride into it, and take it less for granted.
