Leave me alone lol! Didn't get out of work in time and had to defrost the car so by that time it was home shower and bed, no tesco last night.

Get a fire truck round to wash it I thinks.

I want to wash the car, not blow it away ;)

http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.206-0853.aspx Not bad, will have a look in store tonight if not I'll order it online. Thanks Mr Jamie, appreciate it!

The old one I currently use is proper spastic lol, had it a good 6-7 years (don't use very often) and drops off the pressure all the time, groans, moans and doesn't behave very well at all. Tesco don't seem to have anything above 2 on the website? I never go half assed about buying things...

Rofl! Sounds like a plan! http://direct.tesco.com/q/N.1999860$4294965141/Nr.99.aspx What am I after? K1-7 series for the foam lance, will fit such things like K2.54 etc?

Didn't think you'd have a tesco's anywhere new Alderley Edge ;) Will pop in tonight. See if they have any Karchers. Not keen on using a towel on the tires that I'd use on the paint... :/ Use new towels for paint and old one for tires?

My jaw dropped on the first picture, shame I can't see the rest on this connection :( What a great group of cars!

Mine do alot, never thought about the cold/warm thing though. My dad reccommended giving them a good spray when I'm washing to get rid of any excess stuck dust. Water drys but dust doesn't. ;)

Used a scourer and then the sponge side to apply shiney shiney tire but it got all dirty and thought it would be a better way? What about the power washer?

BeforeIFunkinCatchAIDS Yeah lol. Something like this?: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/7401949/Trail/searchtext%3EPOWER+WASHER.htm I4D Uber Yellow Premium Drying Towel 17" x 26" x2 Snow Foam Gun / Lance 3M Masking Tape 2328 White I4D Citrus Snow Foam - 5 Litre Tyre...

Just get in it at 1/2am and give it about 7 seconds and it steams up lol. Just seems abit excessive. Doesn't help that the vents aren't all that well at clearing it because of the odd positioning I've found. Any old glass polish do? As Mike says "Glass is Glass"?

For inside aswell though because of fogging up alot?

Fog inserts and scuttle(sp) panel, rear insert is ok. What's that rainex stuff people have mentioned btw?

I need something to sort out fading plastics aswell :( The brush it to get between the tire and the rim lip. (I have a full pack of different sizes) ;)

New wheel brush ;) I also got this odd greasey wet patch on the windscreen, drying it just didn't happen, it would smudge abit but didn't have much give, any ideas?

Don't mind about $$$, will get 2 tomorrow hopefully when I aquire the internet at home, hopefully (depending if virgin turn up).

Sends a link and I'll get acouple of those, will bin my current one. Got a new wheel brush yesterday aswell, will post a pic soon ;) I eh, also need to get some snowfoamz, which means power washer/lance and chemicals to go along with it.

On 182 wheels? I've seen one around Warrington, heading towards that way acouple of times.

I can't do that baby. :o Washed the car saturday, wasn't too cold but I hatched a plan. Before I started drying I set the drier going, warmed it up alittle. Then went over the car and get most of the standing water off, went and stuck it in the drier. Popped my centre caps back on my wheels...

Rofl, thanks mate. I didn't even dry it after cleaning last night because I noticed I'd missed bits, and wasn't willing to wipe dust all over it with the drying towel.

Get the girlfriend up to your place next weekend ;) Sunday?

I have caluses from the gym and everything, but I have small wrists and thin fingers :( Cleaning might be for women, but clean cars are for tidy people :approve: I love how everyone flocked to call me girly hands lol.

Will give that a try tomorrow :)

Won't that just make the towel wetter and there for less effective at drying?

My hands hurt when Im ringing out while drying :( I have sensitive hands lol, they often peal a layer like a snake.

Hoovering out the interior, cleaning the wheels, car, then drying takes about that long :o If not longer. I'll look into 'seal skins', no idea what they are, I'll give washing up marigolds a go aswell. Thanks guys!

Winter is coming, and spending 3 hours outside with wet hands is murder :dapprove: Keeping the water a touch warmer is a good start to keeping my hands, but what else can I do to keep them warm? Water proof gloves that I can get inside my mitts? Alex

JD's 9-5 job ruins plans...

G-Wiz's and there 12v of power have more manly horns than me lol.
