Winter is coming to town here in Los Angeles. Guess I'll be wearing tennis shoes when I wash the car instead of sandals.

I still hand wash my car in negative temperatures throughout the winter and so does my neighbor. Just Canadian things. Lol

i squirt mine down every week, ..... just go to a self wash place, pull in, pull out the hose, squirt it off, get on the parkway, drive as fast as i can for as long as i can until the car is dry, .... i call it a Pittsburgh Touchless Rinse

i know this may get me kicked out of the club but i’m not afraid of the drive-thru car wash ...

Ron Jeffries · 12-05-2017, 10:25 AM

High in the 70s yesterday. Just checked the AccuWeather app on my phone and it says, "Snow ending in 8 min"...I don't see no snow!

I call BS! Was in T.O Nov 24-28 and it was cold, and that wind chill to take it into the negatives

At first I was like, wait what? Then I realized you meant celsius. Negative farenheit hand washing is just begging for trouble.

Optimum rinse less car wash here. Easy and effective.

went thru a different rubber hose place, called “soft touch”. car looks good and stopped crying after only about an hour.
