Things that pi** you off when cleaning your car

[Curley]

Getting the power wash and hose pipe etc all set up

Actually washing the car itself pisses me off pretty well.

I come in to this thread to say that you don't clean your car

Cleaning the inside of my back window is like mission impossible, so much dicking about just to reach it! I managed it today for the first time in 4 months. My wheels are also horrid to clean.

I've got to say owning a white car is superb for hassle free washing and waxing, i never see any water spots or marks at all!

+ 1 on that. I did mine last night and it was dusk. Dried with a microfibre and normally I go over with a QD when I do the weekly wash but couldn't be bothered. Come out this morning and its as fresh as a daisy.

I'm the opposite to Alan - owning a black car means its a pain to wash, and after washing, it's usually filthy again after a couple of minutes.

I know the feeling my old clio was pearl black. Hell but those few minutes when it is glossy and wet looking are great

Bugs what are literally glued to the front bumper/numberplate.

Having a black car.

Water marks when the suns out.

Generally laziness and effort it takes to clean a car.

Jetwashing your car then realising you left all the windows open...

( I have never done this really )

Getting pissed off that your pressure washer isn't working, kicking it in down the drive a fit of rage then finding out its not plugged in then plugging it in to find it doesnt work anymore

yeah my last car was black, horrid to keep clean as black is a shiney colour, swirl marks show and wax film / haze is difficult to remove. I dont even feel like its worth bothering with QD after a wash with the white - no need!
