Finally washed my car today...

well it has been snowing like crazy here in MI.. almost everyday... finally today it breaks clear..and in the upper 40s.... went to the local autozone, bought a California waterblade (This thing is amazing... for those who wash their own car... get one...) anyway... washed the car... my car was covered in salt and dirt... and after 2 hours of cleaner wax, polish, and wax... my baby finally look new again... it's amazing what sometime and effort and plenty of wax can do for the car!!!

I sometimes feel I can control the weather simply by washing my car. The longer it takes me the more it rains I may get one of those california water blades. Was looking at it but didn't want to spend $20 for something that I had no idea if it actually worked or not.

it works great... just some of the part you can't get it with.. best thing to do is use it to get most of the water off.. then use a towel to take care of the rest... I dried my car in less then 5 min, in 40s degree temp... I was amazed...

on the side note.. I also washed my sister's max today and it got bird poop on it already.... reminded me that maxima commerical where the birds are aiming for the max

yesterday I just spent 4 hours washing,detailing,waxing and it started to rain later that night! the water blade works good but you still have to go around and use a cloth after since it cant reach the hard to reach spots like around the windows.

It always rains when I wash mine. Sometimes I just want to put it in a garage and never take it out.

I washed mine yesterday and already with the dirst and salt on the ground from snow it looks bad again. Oh well at least I got some of it off the paint.
