Marylander Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Man, it's been about two months since either I've had time to or the weather has been good enough to wash and detail my DD... and it's just killing me. I SO want to get her shined up and put a few coats of Americana on her, but things just aren't working out time/weather wise. And it's not looking much better anytime soon -- we're supposed to get snow this weekend. I shake my fist at all you FL/TX/AZ/CA guys!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I know what you mean Rich. It got to 40* here one day last week and I was out in the driveway washing the dd. Pulled it in the garage, wiped it all down with detail spray and called it a day. My hands were just froze. That groundhog best not be seeing his shadow next week. We've suffered enough this winter. We deserve a nice early spring...........I NEED TO DETAIL SOMETHING!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonicHD Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 My truck had 2months of crud on it..... i took an extended lunch yesterday and went out and washed it since we actually have a few dry days in a row now. I didnt even detail it, but washing it felt soooooo good. And it ran great on the way home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMADreamer Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I hear you, please bring on spring!!! I looked at my rims today and almost cried at how bad they looked. I had to apologize to them for the neglect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

70'sChevyGirl Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I NEED TO DETAIL SOMETHING!! How about the kitchen?? :D My Black Charger looks awful. The salt line is half way up my doors and there is no warmth in sight so detailing it is out of the question for now. Most of us feel your pain Rich.

mc2hill Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I shake my fist at all you FL/TX/AZ/CA guys!!!! In my best Monty Python and the Holy Grail frenchman's voice : "We scoff at you with your snowplows and shovels!" I will be washing the wife's car tomorrow in our 70 degree weather! But to be fair, we put up with the 6 months of temps in the 90's for our mild winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We must be the only 2:D I think you're right. I can normally find a fairly nice day around this time of year here and there to detail the cars, but all I can do right now is watch the snow fall.
