Rep Power: 0 Clean Civic
The weather here in Ontario is unseasonably warm, 11 degrees celsius today, 52 Fahrenheit. So I went and washed my car and just reminded myself how beatiful our 7th gen civics look when they are all shiny, and how much I hate salt!! Makes me want to [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG] But at least now it is all shiny again, until winter comes back!!

Rep Power: 0 It got to the 60s here yesterday so I decided to detail my civ. Looks perty again. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
You know if you spray the tire dressing on the inside of the wheelwells, it makes them look new again. (Eagle F1 works best)

Rep Power: 0 That's a good idea Lowboy, I think I am gonna try that!! The only thing that sucks is I have to get down on my hands and knees to clean my drivers side wheel wells first as I must have run over some freshly painted lines and I have yellow paint inside my wells.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] Luckily it comes off pretty easy though, thank goodness for mud flaps or my beautiful black civic would have had yellow paint on it!! Damn those city workers, don't they know what wet paint signs are!!![IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 hey neillove, I know what you mean about the wet paint thing. it was crazy, a few weeks ago I was chillin in traffic and saw this truck pull away in the opposing lane, and I noticed that there was this HUGE pile of wet paint where it pulled away from. It was apparently painting lines, and I dont know what happened, if it spilled or what, but it was terrible. And cars were flying thru it...paint was flying up in the air, I moved my car over and drove on the shoulder cause I didnt want that sh*t on my car! I wonder why they left the paint there and just drove off? cant you get into serious trouble for something like that?

Rep Power: 0 It rained yesterday so I couldn't wash my dirty civic. Instead, I pulled her into the garage and cleaned and vacuumed the interior and cleaned my wheels. I can't wait til rainy season is over. Oh wait, this is Mobile, AL; it's always rainy season[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 sometimes i wonder if i should wash my car because there's always moisture on it when i go to school in the morning. but i feel so relieved when it's really dirty and i give it one swipe and see the beauty. this goes for my exhaust too. it's a blueish greenish color[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 Yes I agree. When Chicago weather in January gets to be 60 degrees, you go wash your car. Because 3 days later it's gonna snow.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 Ha, it hit upper 60's today in N. Va...I got my car spotless and my windows near invisible (meaning I spent an hour and a half on them ) but didn't get to wax, sun came down too early.
