How often do you guys wax?

Just curious. I myself try to wax one a month and use a wax Booster once a week.

Every 4 - 6 weeks. Often more frequently than that. I use a variety of booster and wax based quick detailers in between.

I have both of these and would reverse the timing. Liquid Souveran is more durable (but cheaper) than Souveran paste.

The LS enhances the shine on the PS... and doing it every 2 weeks, keeps the PS topped. It's a decent shine, and that way I'm not spending as much on wax.

paint sealants --- 10 weeks maximum
I use a QD like Quikshine, FK 425 to amp up gloss at each wash (2X weekly)

carnuaba waxes --- 6 weeks maximum
I use Crystal Mist after each wash (2X weekly) to amp up carnuaba

So if I usually use a sealant and top with a carnuaba what should be the recommended schedule? 6 weeks for both products?

if you top your sealant with a carnauba, go by the carnauba schedule.

I personally rewax every 3-4 weeks. Lately though, i've been waxing after every wash. I've been having a wetness fetish lately and my desire for a wetter finish is current unsatiable.
