Angry Detailing my car .....then RAIN :(

So i finally have some free time to detail my car and actually spend the time and do a good job instead of a half *** one.

Last night i started the interior 5pm-10:30pm

Today 12pm-6pm finished the interior and gunked under the hood and totally washed every freakin corner of my baby.

I swear there wasnt even a tiny piece of lint that you could find.

Went to CT to buy some mothers products cuz i was hoping to wax aswell since i found my buffer that i thought i gave away. hehe

I put everything away and hop in the shower to get ready to cruzz around b4 going to a friends house.
I walk out my door and PISSSSSS PISSSS PISSSSSSSS:fustrated

WTF!!!! I spent literally about 11 hours on my car to toally detail it.

I HAAAAATE when you clean your car and it rains right afterwards.


Hey Marty or Neil what is the stuff you use on your cars?
Mothers right?
I heard you talking about it at James' house last week and talking about the bar etc. so thats what i picked up.

I used meguires b4 but i was down to nothing so i thought i would buy this instead and give it a try.

GOOD???? gimme some tips please
I bought the 3x steps and plus the kit with the wax bar in it.

OHhhhhhhhhhhhh and btw.....those Marty towels are FREAKIN AMAZING!!!! Thanks
I want mooooooooooooore!! hehhee

It never fails that when someone washes their car it's bound to rain :cry:

That's why I watch the weather forcast in advance and plan ahead But then again you know how predictable the weather forcasters are

What I do when that happens is wait until it stops raining, hose the car down, dry it, and use my Z6 (Zaino product) to shine 'er up

I think Neil and Marty are using Zaino now. But then I could be wrong.

The Weather Network or the Weather Section of the Toronto Star is your friend

I wash my car when I feel the need to wash it, even if it is gonna rain in 3 hours, I would still wash it. It is a good exercise.

Neil, you might as well lick you car if you wash it 4 times a week... the fly will have a hard time standing on your hood... it will slip...

Neil, it is a sarcastic joke. I think you have lost your sense of humour beause you are surrounded in this thick layer of wax...
