How often do you recommend full exterior detail?

I guess it really depends on usage and upkeep. I usually recommend a full detail twice a yr....If they let me maintain it during the yr, then i begin with a complete detail, including clay, smr, polish, seal....every quarter i recommend a light polish and seal....It works out to every other detail is a complete...

If I wash for them, they get a coat of Carnauba.....
 
If they are going to bring it to me on a regular basis then they get a full exterior detail twice a year. Once in the spring and once in the fall. In between they get wax once a month and washes once a week normally. I've got three or four customers who are very regular like that. If you can get ahold of the car on a regular basis then it is a lot easier to get it up to standard and then keep it that way. If I'm the only one washing it then they don't get many swirls and there isn't much need for a 'full' exterior job except for the spring and fall ones.
 
I recommend to my customers that I wax their vehicles every 3 months and I always do a 2 step, with heavier polishing as needed.
 
Whenever I see the car would benefit from it. I try not to keep someone from spending over 150.00 of their pay check unless I feel they will be happy with the expense. I do the detailing thing as a hobby so I don't care how much I make.
