The car is dirty and bug spattered...

70% chance of rain later today...

Is it worth washing?

What would you do?

[Shambles]

It's 22:30 here - I'd grab another tinnie and just chill.

I'm questioning your commitment to your car

We're in SA, mate. You should know it never rains!

I was trying to be optimistic

Anyhoo, PD didn't get washed, and even if it doesn't rain tonight (or tomorrow), the gale that's blowing out there would cover it in a fine layer of dust by morning anyway

Chill with a glass of whiskey and watch nature wash the car for you.

[Mikkantoo]

Well it did rain a little bit (better than nothing here in dry as a nuns nasty South Australia), and now the back is speckled with mud...yay. 

Also, I've been using Bowden's Own After Glow, and got really nice beading on the car on my morning drive to work. I can highly recommend it, although next time I wash the car I'll try out the Lazy Wax I just bought and see how that goes.

If you prefer the wax approach try the Optimum Spray wax Optimum Car Wax 504ml - ZAS

Doesn’t get much simpler

Thanks for tip on that spray, Craig
I have a feeling I'm going to end up having a bottle of everything

Still suffering from NCS  I see. It'll subside.

[Mikkantoo]

Took me a few seconds to think what NCS could possibly stand for, and then it clicked...

Let's just say, my last ride didn't get hand washed in it's last 10 years of life so I'm kinda making up for it with this one, but as you said, it'll subside soon enough I'm sure

I (and the wifey) even went and layed down 5 tonnes of gravel under the carport on Saturday morning to keep PD high and dry this winter and to stop us from dragging mud into the car...yep bad case of NCS that's for sure
