    Alright I don't know what it is about this winter but I cannot wait for spring or summer to get here with warmer weather. It has been abnormally frigid here and I know people in the midwest have it 10X worse. I'm calling for a DB Members retreat to south Florida. How amazing would that be.

    Man, i'm so ready for warm weather. Got a ton of products during all the christmas sales. My car is so filthy, I hate to even look at it. So, I'll be so glad when warm weather gets here.

    I washed my car with the hose hooked up to a faucet inside the house. The hose broke off and my laundry room was drenched.

    I was done with this winter 5 minutes into the 1st snow storm. That was 10 storms ago. Enough already!

    Thanks for letting me vent. Joe D.

    A couple days ago I got the chance to do a regular wash instead of ONR. I gave the wells a good scrub and gave the undercarriage a good spray down. My 3 month old layer of 845 was starting to lose beading on the hood after all of the salt/snow/ non-washing so I used AG Super Resin Polish on White LC pad on speed 5 to remove LSP and prep the area, then topped it with AG Hi Def. Pretty slick now and with this weather we're having I was lucky with a decent day to do it.

    In winter there is no such thing as clean; only better than before.

    I'm fortunate to be able to bucket wash at a spray bay 10 minutes away from home. But I'm also dying for summer time.

    one thing i picked up for about $25 @ Dick's Sporting Goods is a water proof ski suit.

    It really (i can't stress this enough) helps to keep warm outdoors and isn't very bulky.

    Short of meeting in Florida, I guess I'll have to ONR with my ski suit.

    Just got back from FL on Saturday...I was greeted with 20 degree weather and nasty salt covered roads...my car is so nasty right now...just need to find a free evening for an ONR wash. Guess I am lucky though cause all I have to do is flip the heater on in the garage.
