    My girlfriend had to do a "how to" presentation in her communications class so i decided to help her out with a "How to Properly wash a car". U'd be amazed how many people nowadays don't know this. It was her momma's 1999 Honda CR-V it actually came out great. I'd never seen it that clean.. and probably never will again haha

    Lots of pics

    Nice! For the next lesson you should have your girl do a "How to Properly MAINTAIN Your Car" presentation. Good job.

    Nice work. She's cute! At first I thought you were just trying to stealthily photograph a passerby. Then the next photos had her helping. I thought "either this dude has hella game, or that's his girlfriend."

    Nice job man... but those red towels are exactly what I thought they were, and there is NO WAY in hell I'd touch them to paint...

    Haha thanks guys

    and those rags I dont' know where the carwash gets em but i just buy them from the local carwash. They have to be used whet. You keep em in a bucket full of water and wring out the towel then fold it in 4ths. However if you use the dry they WILL absolutely scrath the paint but wet they don't harm it at all
