Are you suggesting that not washing your car weekly might damage the paint? I believe that over maintaining some things is worse.
No, more like skipping out on washing it all together in the cold weather due to being uncomfortable vs washing it when I can. A biweekly washing is almost a necessity because its outdoors 24/7 and is parked under a trees almost all the time. Bird droppings, sap, leaves covering the car are a daily occurrence. Then I go to work and for 8 hours it sits in the sun and bakes in. Almost every week I am using tar remover to take off large globs of sap, which always removes the wax.
