Detailing collector car questions

[bjoeaull]

So my Dad and I have in the last year or two been buying collector cars, 6 now. They rarely leave the garage and were immaculately detailed when we bought them. Question is whats the best way to routinely clean these things. Should they ever see a hose if they aren't driven in wet conditions.

 

Next is probably easier to answer and thats the waxing. I'm thinking hand wax them once clean. Should we use clay ever? How often should they be waxed, I was thinking yearly, thoughts?

when I say they get out once every couple of weeks or so, sometimes its a longer period though. And when they come out for a spin, its usually just a run up and down the very long alsphalt driveway. Only on special drives do they venture out on the roads, and not all of them. And only nice days, so basically couped up all winter in the garage.

 

Thanks guys!

When I got the Firebird, I did a complete correction for two reasons,

1. It needed it really bad.

2. I wanted to start from scratch. that way I knew what wax and sealant was on there.
