      I actually did that for my dad's Tribeca.

      After applying collinite 476s, I wanted to see the beading action. But nope, no rain whatsoever, just a bunch of dark clouds and a gloomy day.

        True story!
        I believe it.

        Though I've never actually been confronted, but while I was finishing waxing my fiancee's car one time at 1am, a patrol car flashed those big patrol lights on me. I was sure he'd stop and question me, but he just continued to drive away.

          I'm 3 1/2 hours northwest of ft.Leonard Wood. This is the type of stuff we get all the time around here. Unfortunately, most of it is true! My wife's Uncle got a trolling motor for his boat at Christmas. He could hardly wait to try it out. So he headed for the bathtub to try it out, one small problem, he wanted to try it out with his wife still in the bathtub!!!

              I tried UQW for the first time the other day and now I'm patiently waiting until it rains so I can be proud of my paint's ability to repel water. I intend to outside with an umbrella and force passers-by to observe the water sheeting. When I actually do that then I think I will have officially gone from "car crazy" to stark, raving mad.

                      u know ur car crazy when u try and decide which meguiars products will clean your crappy single stage red concrete mixer truck and try to imagine how well APC, APC+, Wheel Brightener etc. would work on that for cleaning wheels etc. Also try to figure out what would eat cured concrete off it aside from the 100% muratic acid they use currently!

                          this is so true haha.


                          You know your Car Crazy when a bird poops on your car and you frantically run to clean it off.
                          You know your Car Crazy when you visit your meguiars products just to shake them.

                            If you consider detailing a comunity service on some cars.

                            If leaving a fingerprint on paint or glass is a huge insult.

                            if you've ever threatenend a windshield cleaning crackhead. whoops! I mean homeless person.

                            If burnouts only mean a mess on the lower quarter panel.

                            If you absolutely CANNOT lend out any paste wax.

                              If you want to stay home from vacation to clean your car

                              If you spend $300 on new tires just so they match, even though the take-offs were brand new

                              If you constantly check your car while at work to make sure nothing has got on it.

                              If you get to work 30 minutes early to reapply tire gel

                              If you have pictures of your car on your ipod so you can wheel through them while listening to music

                              If you look out the window every 15 minutes to see how good it looks

                              If it pisses you off when your neighbor cuts grass.

                              If you have more spare parts for your car lying around from being replaced, than you have on the car.

                              If you go to bed early so the time passes quickly so you can get up and detail.

                              If you drive under the speed limit to keep from getting to much dust on your car.

                              If you call in sick because it may rain and you just detailed your car.

                              If you use quick detailer just to smell it.

                              If you walk by cars going in stores and try to find the owner to tell them you will wash it for free.

                              If it takes you longer to walk into the store from your car, than you spend in the store.

                                I'm not sure if this makes me car crazy, but I'm taking apart my wire hubcaps to polish everything.
