My neighbor's car that I polished out with SSR3 but it left some marring.

Had a chance to do it yesterday. Started at 2:30 pm finished 3 hours later and it was getting cold an humid - we had 3+ inches of snow today :mad: I'll wash her car again and take daytime pictures. The paint came out very wet looking.

So this morning I look out the window and see the owner of the maxima cleaning the snow off of her car with one of those CVS brush/scraper thing! Yesterday I noticed that the trunk was covered with swirls - Now I knew how they happend:D

So I am debating if I should stop her from doing the whole car and go to put some pants on - I go out to my balcony to tell her to stop destroyng the paint on her car and what do I see? She is wiping the snow off of MY CAR!!!! She did the right side and half of the roof. Now I am sure I have to repolish the car. SHe tried to reassure me that it is a soft brush.:mad: :mad: :confused: :confused:



She received a quick 101 on car paint. :D:angry :angry :angry

Yeah.... she was trying.



I don't think she will go anywhere near my car :D



First thing I told her was that I forgive her for scretching my car :D
 
I clean off MOST of the snow with my hand. I don't clear the snow all the way to the paint. The thin layer that's left, I let slide off on it's own as I drive. The heat from the engine/cabin warms the body panels and allows the snow to melt on the bottom, and slide off of the car.
 
Jeez, nice combo for white you've found! Did you go swimming in the hood when you finished! ;)



Your car looks terrific as always.
 
LOL! Nice, although as I was reading through the thread from the first two pictures to the second two pictures I thought "Woa! He poliched it so much it changed colors!" :eek:



Your Jetta looks good but I gotta ask what wheel/tire combo you're runnin' in back and why so much camber? Or is that just in the photo?

I leave that stuff on too. When the snow on the car is fresh I just wipe off the top of the door/part of the roof so the snow doesn't fall into the car.

Thanks Scott for both compliments.



I am trying to use up the 3M wax. Good stuff, but it is kind of hard to apply.
 
LOL Tom, don't you love it when people help you?



Funny story. We were visiting my fiance's family one time and it snowed, her mother's car, her aunts car, and my car were out in the driveway. Knowing her mom I KNEW she would clean the snow off of my car and wouldn't take no for an answer, so after the snow stopped and everyone else was in bed, I went out and cleaned the car off myself so there wouldn't be anything left to do. Now THATS sick huh?



Details look great!
 
wow really nice details, the white looks brilliant.



You car looks amazing and the clarity is superb. Love the tyres at the back too, nice and euro!
