Yup and the truck! But I will have to wash the snow off of it first!

Will the pressure washer take the snow off? I am impressed you can hold on to the pressure washer without your hands freezing.

I think his neighbors are used to it by now. I want to know how Tim keeps from slipping on the ice.

I just love it when car crazy detailers defy winter!

Tim is probably going to wash the boat next!

Does this count as a cold climate? LOLOL!

You know it is cold when the snow starts to stick to the frozen driveway!



Tim

Washed mine in the garage and not the drain is clogged big time from cinders and other road residue. And nothing is working to clear it up. Time for the Roto-Rooter!

Re: For those of us in the colder winter climates...

When I bought my car in May I washed it myself and swore I would never go to the local car wash. I went out to wash it before Christmas and my water hose was frozen up. So I broke down and took it to the local hand
wash and they did a good job. So I will do that from time to time or take it to the coin wash and spray off the worst of it. I just keep counting down the days until March finally comes. Nothing better than cleaning your vehicle up unitl it shines and it stays that way for several days. I am cleaning mine up today and it is suppose to rain Sunday and snow for Monday plus Tuesday! Ugh!

The apartment building has a garage which is heated and warm/cold water, drain. So it's no problem for me to wash inside there year round. But usually it's very warm there in the summer.

BTW Who answered "I don't wash it in the summer, why would I start now? "

We no longer have winter in Kentucky so I wash it when I need to.

Re: For those of us in the colder winter climates...

We wash ours in our unheated garage, which has a drain in the floor. Unfortunately, below 20-degrees, the hose tends to freeze. I've tried space heaters in the garage and such, but we get below 0 here, so there's not much I can do in January and February!

Dupe!

Re: For those of us in the colder winter climates...

I usually won't wash unless it gets around 50 deg. I will however go out and spend 20 mins spraying off all the road salt once the majority of it is off the roads.

In the winter I get my car washed every Saturday morning at a local detail shop. For $15 they do an amazing hand wash, using only the softest wash mitts (which they wash after every use) and soft cotton towels to dry it off (also washed after every use) They also wash the underbelly of the car and inside all the door jambs. When they are done they even use a leaf blower to get excess water out of the tail lights and side mirrors!
