Join Date: Mar 2003 Posts: 370 | Don't you hate it when... You have plans for detailing and they get changed for you?? I work 3 12 hour shifts M-W, and I also mow a few yards for extra money. I love my work schedule!! This week I had no yards to mow so I was going to spend all weekend detailing my vehicles! I was going to try my PC for the first time Thursday on my work vehicle. I was going for Menzerna IP ,then AIO, and then Z2 Pro.
Anway, I left for work about an hour ago and when I got to work it was deserted. We were unable to run tonight, so now I have to work Thursday. I won't get off until 5 in the morning Friday, so I'll be shot Friday.  Oh well. I got plans for Saturday too.
The best laid plans...  :
Anybody feel my pain?? | |

Join Date: Feb 2003 Posts: 49 | yeah, I feel your pain... the day I did the full detail on my car this spring it was about 35 degrees out.. I was tempted to just forget it.. but I wanted to use all my new products.. I did it anyway, it just took me alot longer since I had to go inside and warm up. But yeah I usually have to find time to do my car... sometimes late nights in the garage.

It took me 2 weeks to do my truck. A door one day. A fender another. I had the cleanest truck for that 2 weeks though. I had to wash it everytime I was going to do some more waxing.

I have a ton of new stuff to try out and I just cant find the time to do it. It seems like I don't get home untill after its dark.
I had this weekend all mapped out, then my wife invites the inlaws down for the weekend. Oh well, maybe I will just have to use a vacation day.

And when I was about to begin, the electricity went down. Doooohhhh!!!!!  ( | |

Next time you look they are scrubbing the car w/ the wheel brush. Or the drop the wash mitt on the driveway and go right back to wahing the car.
