Hi All:
I really enjoy this forum and need some expert help. I recently fulfilled a longtime dream and purchased a 1988 Ferrari 328 GTB. It is in mint condition and has only 12,000 miles on it. Everything about it is showroom new-looking. My problem is it has never seen water!!!
The previous two owners never used water to wash the car--only wipe downs every time it was driven, spray detailer, and wax intermittently. It looks perfect so I can`t deny that their methods worked.
I just took delivery and got a little road spray on it--nothing major but I can`t see just wiping it off with spray detailer. I live in New England so eventhough we had heavy rains that washed the roads off the night before I drove on them, the road spray has a little sand and possibly salt dust in it.
I really want to wash it with water like I`ve done to all my other cars. But, a car that hasn`t seen water in over ten years--now I`m feeling paranoid!
What do you think?
--Jim
