Wet mornings

Post by bb1boy » Tue Sep 03, 2013 12:10 pm

Every morning I look out of the window and see my car and the others on the street and every morning I am half depressed/half happy because clearly my car is the only one on the street that has been waxed/polished regularly - I can tell this because every other car on the street is bone bloody dry whereas mine is literally covered in tiny beads of water from the moisture of the morning air ..by the time the sun has dried it off it's covered in water marks and dust, meaning I have to clean it again. Does anyone else suffer with this? Does anyone have any solutions (apart from leave the car dirty)??

A garage is probably the only solution, or a cover of some sort.

Me too Confused.
It's a shame, because I was thinking it meant I wasn't the only one? :? Seems my hopes are dashed :(






(btw, only solutions I can think of aren't very practical: Set up infra-red heat lamps all round, move somewhere warm/dry, or park in a garage!)

I to do suffer from wet morning. I mean talk about morning glory.......



Wait.....

The car. Yes I also have wet beading on my pearl white beast. It's because its colder at night the water sits there. Some heat clears it and will be shiny again.
