Default Wahed the SI in 25 degree weather today !

I had to wash the SI the snow made it look really dirty i couldn't take it anymore so i hand washed it in 25 degree weather crazy i know but worth it for me !

I washed it with Meguiar’s gold class soap and a Australian sheep skin mitt for whoever cares to know !

Getting Started !







Damn Ice !





All Done !

Ur insane! Freakin INSANE! The coldest i ever washed my car in was 38 degrees and when you have water on your hands at that temperature it really SUCKS.

Your car will probably be just as dirty tomorrow!

I work with water all day at work... I'm always wet and it's kinda outside. Gotta be real tough

People think I'm crazy. I work without a coat and at home I wash my car at night in the coldest weather.

I washed mine yesterday. Doesn't this NY weather suck. And why do they put down so much freakin' salt when there is no snow on the ground?
