Yep, it certainly depends on how the car is used and stored; my cars are stored inside in a climate controlled garage and stay pretty clean. If I end up with a bit of dirt or dust that won't blow off with an air compressor, I just give it a quick rinse with a hose......but I don't often need to, certainly not as often as I need to wash the cars.
