I wanted to QD my car to get some dust of it so I spent about an hour S&Win` and S&Gin` it. Then I come in from the garage and hear on the news that it`s gonna rain/snow tomorrow night into tomorrow morning. Usually, I park my car in my garage at night but tomorrow I have a late night class so I`m gonna get hit some that muck. Guess I`ll just have to QD it again on friday. Anyone else ever done this?



P.S. My car looks amazing right now.

If you hit muck, you should probably rewash it before you QD.

Consider yourself lucky that you can clean your car at all. It`s 2*F here. I haven`t washed my car in over two weeks, and it`s more brown than silver at the moment.

AHah welcome to my frustration. I DD my car and I don`t have enough light or time to wash it by the time I Get home from work during the weekday. We`ve been getting nailed by all sorts of snow, slush and everything. I`ll wash it this weekend tho! :)



I`ve been washing my car, finished drying it, then 10 minutes later it downpoors...That`s painful. I`ve also been in the MIDDLE of drying my car and it started snowing :furious:



Got to love this winter weather! I cant` wait for better stuff.

I find the end result of a full wash after a week or so of bad weather, to be lot more satisfying than a quickdetail after light dusting or grime.

You gotta point there. It`s our first snow/freezing rain/sleet of the year, I`m hoping that it`s just rain.
