LOL

touchless works ok, but it really depends on the machine.
some touchless are garbage, some are better.

 

Huh, slow day here in the winter thread.

Wonder if its going to be sunny tomorrow... . Was too tired this morning to pull out my MCS.

Endedup detailing my G past midnight last night.

 

Supposed to be rrrrrrrrrrrrrreally cold here tomorrow, Ken. Like a high temp of 36, cold.

I have a feeling this is going to be a brutal friggin' winter.

 

OK, you guys are all cold weather washing sucks

I used to wand wash Poco down to about -5F with no issues. Now the coin wand washes back up in Manitoba are indoors and heated, but if you take the time to dry things, no issues.

The main issue with true touchless car washes, is depending on the soap they use, it may strip your wax. Now you could opt to get their spray wax, which may last a week or so, but it's hit or miss coverage wise. Kind of how they operate, wax on, next wash, wax off, wax on...........

Lois took the Clubman into the dealer today to have our promised Multi-Function steering wheel installed, and our melted scoop replaced. I had her ask the dealer if I could have all the old parts, and they said sure. I plan on using the scoop to practice paint touch-ups, plus figuring out how to Dremel more holes in the vent. No real plans for the steering wheel, but I guees I could make the grandkids a go-kart with a Kool MINI steering wheel.

Now if it still has the air-bag, well the possibilities are pretty much endless

I'm not hating tomorrow's weather because I wanted to wash a MINI or two. I'm hating it because I just generally dislike cold weather.

Is it April yet ??

 

No, but there are 2 A's in January

Oh I may come across as a winter lover, but believe me, I don't miss those brutal Manitoba -45F, snow on the ground for 6 months winters.

lotsie, I did a Dremel job on my scoop vent when I took it off to paint it. It is a pretty easy job with a straight burr bit. It actually does a lot of melting of the plastic, but a disposable, heavy grit, thick foam nail file did a good job of cleaning it up. I then used a small round file to clean up the corners.

I made a couple of small gouges in the first fins I tried, but they are not noticable at all when it is installed. Start near the top, since you have to be pretty low to see them anyway.

 

I now have an aero front bumper cover in my Kia Spectra rental car... gotta drop it at the shop tomorrow.... turns out I'm getting a new condenser AND a new radiator - WOO HOOOOOOOO! No more grungy splotchy radiator! Gotta figure out how to KEEP this one clean and shiny... guess this will also take the place of my 60K radiator flush and fill....

Got my aero lower grille... gonna UJ it this weekend

 

He always makes me do the dirty work There I was saying er, ah, well, I think he's going to hang the steering wheel on the bathroom wall

Lois

 

I'm jealous. I need to hit a flying non-stationary object at freeway speeds so Clara can have a new aero bumper!

 

ML- make sure you youtube that event.

 

A buddy of mine has motorcycle handlebars installed on the headboard of his bed...

 

First Ken, and now this guy.

I'm really starting to question your judgment in selecting your friends, Paul.

 

Me? What did I do?

 

What DIDN'T you do ??

A steering wheel at the head of the bed, hm.....
