Wondering how many times a year/how long do you go between waxing your vehicle? I use turtle wax super hard shell, and plan to do it once a month (every 4th wash). A bit excessive?
 
Not excessive imho. Mine get a full 'correction' ~annually, with a light M205 fluff & buff about every six months.
Our sealants/waxes/LSPs bead, repel, and gleam around a month or two between applications what with the sunny days and ocean spray.
For me, at least, detailing has proven to be cheap therapy.

I have not used any wax in 20 years. Too much work for protection that does not last.
 
Paste wax before our 'lite' Winter here...Spray wax 4-5 times in between. The cars always stay nice and water beads consistently.
 
Wax with Meguiars Ultimate every 3 months, wash it every month or so, every once in a while use a spray wax after a wash.
 
About every season. Depending on my mood alittle early or alittle later.

How often depends on the quality tho. Don't skimp if you don't need to buy a nice thing of wax.

You trust it to protect your paint and the thing will last for years anyways.

I prefer paste wax since I feel it lasts longer and you get more.

I dont get it, I wax weekly with spray wax and after the first or second rain shower it stops beading. I think its all the [censored] thats comes from the rain dripping off of the trees above where I park.
 
I'd like to wax more offen, but when it's 115 outside in the summer, I just can't make myself do it usually.

I do the exact same,using Eagle 1 Nano Wax.
