Rain or Wait
So my beaut. black 230, got trashed by a few days of these pollen, seed things from parking under my tree, some mild showers more pollen and my car is dirty and stained and run's
So embarrassed not able to drive with top down, so did some yard work today, got rid of most of the branches TODAY it's supposed to thunder, now and generally the ask.... Should you wait till it rains to wash, or wash and its fine if it rains ? I'm not hand washing I'm using a touchless car wash, with dryer afterwards |

The more you touch/wash/run a black car through a car wash the greater the chance of scratches, swirls & marring. Wash it when you expect a few days of good weather to enjoy the clean ride!

Never understood folks with modern cars that fret over driving in the rain. To each their own, I guess.

txs all, it just seems a waste going through a touchless and then it rains LOL,
but all makes sense, I washed the car and still got pollen seeds on my car, guess they blow in from the higher branches and other neighbors tree's lol |

Love the rain, washed my car with water with no contaminants, oh maybe except acid rain
And the puddles do a good job on power washing my undercarriage when driven through at speed |
