B*stard Weather!!!

[jra3d]

Being as it was lashing down yesterday morning, I thought the 800 miles worth of bugs would be easy to remove after an overnight soaking, so I filled a bucket and got a little bit soggy myself :lol:

Question is did it work?

Almost worked... The bugs and blood splats came off a treat, however I missed a few patches of grime on the drivers side. Much easier than trying to scrub the little blighters off once they have had a days baking in the sun.

I'm meant to be having a BBQ...

The weather is supposed to be absolutely atrocious at the start of next week. The reminance of Hurricane Catya is travelling towards us across the Atlantic - according to the news, we could have the worst storm in 15 years. Sounds exciting to me - I suppose we'll see if that is true or not. No good for detailing, though!

I think it depends more where you are. South East is meant to be breezy 15-20mph but up north, Scotland and Ireland are apparently expected to get 60mph winds!!!!

I wouldn't go out in that let alone detail haha

But I bet it would look a hundred times better, even if it got taken through the Polish car wash for a fiber!! :lol:

 

[Mr_Ben]

As said don't give a monkeys I bought the car to drive not to wash got better things to do than spend 4 hours cleaning something that will only get dirty straight away.

 

[Alex_225]

Kind of missing the point of detailing though, it's not just about cleaning.

For example a waxed car is easier to clean as the dirt doesn't stick to it. Only need to wax once every few months. I can wash my Twingo inside and out within about 90 minutes. I wouldn't expect everyone to put in the same level of detail as some on here do, me included, but never bothering to have a clean car seems a shame.

Also as for getting dirty again straight away, the same could be said of personal hygene and housework! lol

+1. But even I take it to the Poles once a month! Plus mine is silver so you get away with it a bit with that colour

 

[gsidave]

I've still not washed mine since before trax. So that 600'miles plus a track session and nearly a month. Some of you detailing boys would cry if you saw the state of it lol.

 

[Courtney]

It didn't look that bad at trax!

 

[gsidave]

It's looking a lot worse now dead flys along the front. Since I've had no back seats in it's been used like a mini van.

 

[Courtney]

Haha. One of the reasons I won't take mine out, it's an excuse to put big sh!t in there when there is room lol
