Been busy, so just checking in. Did a 2 day set-up for Mama Mia, now I'm off to 6 Flags to build some stuff.

Both MINIs are dirty, but it rains about every 10 1/2 hours here lately

hey, so the chow's technique worked well today! car looked freshly
washed (removed all pollen) when i walked out this evening after work.

i have to say, griot's PaintSealant is the schits. this stuff is super repellant
to crap (literally bird crap) and all crap that falls on the car.

i might just get some Mr. clean autodry's rinse cycle and just blast the car
and call it a wash.

Next time Lotsie is away and busy we should pretend that we are all at each other's throats and all hell has broken loose.

Okay I know I'm late in replying to this by a few hours but I have a friend who washes his car with Tide. I've told him many times that it's not meant to be used on a car but his response is always "But it's the color-safe Tide.."

Oh and I'll join in on the fighting..
