Re: Lets, Talk Professional Acc: for Cleaning Vehicles: Psy, Now how can we be sure until we get to personally inspect it? Terry
I have been using dawn dishwashing liquid forever to clean my cars. Works great. Hand wax every 3-6 months and the finish stays good as new. My vehicles are primarily for transportation, not for show. I spend about $6 (not counting the water) a year on 3 cars to keep them clean and thier finishes in good shape. Some people (me included) can't justify the cost of perfection.
Hi All: ___About cleaning our cars … Some of us don’t have time to clean our cars! Or we don’t want to My Ford Ranger w/ Landscape Debris for ballast in mid-winter. The same with a close up of the Salt Lick attached to the top and inside the bed! You should see the white tail deer chasing me down the street looking for a treat when I take off with her ___Terry, nice post by the way! Mind coming up to Illinois and cleaning Tom’s and my car’s and truck’s ___Good Luck ___Wayne
Wayne, Good Grief I must be out there somewhere in La La Land. You guys scare me. Is that safe to drive in Public with all that Dirt/Salt and whatever on it? I can see that I will need to stay down here. I must have way to Much time on my Hands. I thought I was just a Normal ever day Perfectionist. You guys make me now feel like I am "Really-Special". Cleanliness, is next to What? Sparkles; Terry So I take it that you guys would think I was a little odd. If you new that I Wash & Wax my Scagg Mower. HUH?
Hi Terry: ___And then there was my other car. You know … the Insight hybrid. She was always nice and clean even with 65,000 mile on her Exterior Interior ___I really do miss her sometimes ___Good Luck ___Wayne
Wayn, You sure know how to get my Attention. I like Red, and on your (Use-to-Be) Insight it looks just Great !!! Very clear Pics of it. Thanks for Sharing. All I almost forgot, did you realize it's clean and Shiny? Terry
I'll go with you on the 'price / time justification' - as anal as I am about my cars, it's a wonder I'm not a Zaino freak... However, I wanted to mention that Dawn will strip the wax from your car - you may want to consider a car wash detergent solution that's formulated not to remove wax. I have a bottle of Turtle Wax (?) detergent for this purpose. It's concentrated, so it just takes a capful or two per quart of water. I think it cost me somewhere around $5 at the local auto parts store, and the bottle is enough to last me for years, to be honest (I don't hand wash in the winter, at all - it's either a spray wash with the pressurized wand, to get the salt off, or (usually) a good hand wash by a professional car wash (about $12 for a good outside wash / interior vacuum). In the cases where you want to remove the layers of wax buildup, Dawn is one of the *best* products you can use for this. But to preserve your efforts applying the wax, and the protection it affords the finish, you may want to consider another cleaning solution. Just my .02... Oh, and while I'm at it... I can vouch for Wayne's cars. They're among the cleanest examples I've seen, for the mileage they have. His Insight, when I was up close & personal with it, looked like it had just rolled off the showroom floor. The only wear I could detect, when I drove it, was on the steering wheel. The rest of the car looked practically showroom new. Not only does the man put my mileage accomplishments to shame, he takes care of his cars better than I do
Hi Guys - If you 'Really' want to know/learn how to clean and detail check out 'Autopia Car Care' and go to the How To secton. You will find more than you will ever have time for - from glass, wheels and even engine.
Hi Everyone, It's Summer time and I hope everyone has the {Proper} Cleaning Accessories for: HYBRIDFEST 2006 I am getting Fired up on being there and meeting everyone of (YOU). Terry
