I haven’t washed my Kubota M7060 once since I bought it back in 2017. It’s an outside tractor, I park it under a tree. I don’t have shelter for it YET!! I hope by summertime I’ll have at least a makeshift pole barn for it.
I'm doing a video series of me building my pole barn. It's quiet the process

Alright I’ve lurked long enough.....my sarcasm can’t take it anymore.......
Yah I waxed my tractor till I got a girlfriend!

Or

Yah I wax it. I find that waxing the bucket keeps the dirt from sticking.

Honestly I’ve never thought of waxing it. I haven’t dried more than the seat and wheel after blowing mud off of it. I lube and inspect it regularly but not wax.

I made an official sticker for our new JD 6200, Warning people to remove Dirty Footwear prior to getting on.

I got Green Color Match Wax that I found easier to work with, without finding white wax later. That Mid 90s tractor is worth a pile more now on the used market than we paid for it, even considering inflation. It pays to keep stuff nice.

Quite honestly I don't wax any of my vehicles. I have NO plans to wax my brand new Ram Power Wagon. However, I will hose down with a nozzle on the garden hose and scruff with a soft scrub brush. I will keep the mud and dirt off the vehicles - including the engines.

The only "waxing" I will do - I put vinyl protectant ( 303 ) on the tractor seat, motorcycle seats & vinyl in the PW passenger compartment.

I haven't quite figured out, yet, what to put on the leather seats in the PW. But I know leather has to be kept out of the sun - like the tires on my tractor.

Y'all know they're tractors, right? Ain't none of us Jay Leno with million dollar show cars.


And when I do my building ??? Won't be no videos, nor detailed pictures neither. Don't need no ev-eee-dence for them lawyer types later.

You can bet your bottom dollar if Jay Leno does have a tractor he has one of his guys waxing it for him...!

Besides - Diggin it - anybody ever tried to wax a LARGE pickup, like a PW. It's akin to waxing an aircraft carrier. All my vehicles are under cover and out of the suns UV damage.

I haven't waxed my tractor or even my vehicles since I've bought them. The cars get washed once in the spring to remove the road salt and a couple times in the summer when they get really dirty. The tractor sits under cover. When it gets too much dust on it I park it outside when we're expecting rain then it goes back inside once it's dry.
