Workin at the Car Wash
Workin at the Car Wash
Washed my car in the driveway today, for possibly the last time this year.. The hose was blocked solidly with ice. I had to take it inside to thaw for a couple of hours before I could use it.
I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.
Re: Workin at the Car Wash
Gee that looks like a perfectly middle class car in a tidy middle class neighborhood. With pavers for a driveway instead of working class union concrete.
New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.
Re: Workin at the Car Wash
Good work! I love how black shines up on a car.
I find, like anything if you keep up on cleaning your car it's not too bad of chore. I sweep mine out at least once every 3-4 weeks, clean the dash and windows.
Cool tip- Best way to clean windows is in the shade or after dark. Put some washer fluid in a spray bottle and get you some blue janitors rags, no steaks and you can almost see your reflection in it. Don't forget to wipe out your door jams .

Re: Workin at the Car Wash
I wash my car with what's called a rinseless wash. No hose needed.
I have about 16 smaller microfiber towels for washing. Each towel only goes in the wash bucket once so as not to contaminate the wash. I wash them in the washing machine after and reuse them over and over
Then I use the bigger towel to dry. Wash and dry as I go.
I use Optimum No Rinse wash and wax but there are several quality products out there.
It not something you would do if your car had a bunch of caked on dirt from driving off road or on a bunch of dirt roads.

I know your not big on that but I would think any local car parts store would carry some. Do you have Auto Zones or Advanced Auto Parts or Murry's in Canada?

None of the above. But I'm going to Florida in just a few weeks. So I'll watch for it. Thanks.craig11152 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 01, 2022 12:43 pm
