I have a neighbor down the street who I have never spoke with before but I alway c him washing his car(more than I do and thats alot) Well today I decided to watch his technique as I was smoking a cancer stick and this guy has it all backwards. I felt the need to go introduce myself and talk to him. From the get go the guy was a jerk big time, and as soon as I made a suggestion he might as well of called the cops to have me escorted away!!! Man some poeple just have it all wrong, im man enough to admit I do not know everything and when some one gives me advice even if I dont agree with it I will at least here them out. Oh well its his finish not mine.:nixweiss
 
:down Too few times neighbors either dismiss us as the eccentric nutcase they dare wouldn't look at or, in your case are real ** if you try to be friendly and discsuss something you might have in common.



I know they've been related here but too far and few between: we need more stories of nice friendly neighbors who hopefully can become car crazy just like us!
 
I was driving through my neighborhood one day, and there was a man and his son (30's). They were both waxing their cars. The Dad was waxing a Porsche Turbo, and the son a Carrera 4S.



They were using Turtle Wax.



I went home, grabbed a tin of Blitz Wax, and gave it to them. They said thanks, and the reason they were using Turtle Wax was because it had a picture of a Porsche on the container!
 
Well Bill D you said we need more stories of people like us, well some of my nieghbors are crazy about wanting there cars to look good...so they pay me $150 a pop to do it..lol...thats good enough for me!!!!!
 
I wish I saw my neighbors washing their cars. The only person who does is a punk *** guy and his punk *** son up the street. I want to get better by the spring and go to work on the old BMW across the street :(
 
Here is a short list...one wash bucket, using the same washcloth to wash his finish after his tires, washing in the sun...blah blah blah, the list goes on. Preety much everything, oh yeah and dawn soap, and it wasnt to remove wax either.
 
:D haha..lol..that is harsh, yeah I think that would be funny, he would wake up and find it on his car. I dont know though with the way he acted today he might get me for trespassing or tampering with his property...lol
 
There is a place here in Vegas called Terrible Herbst that is a gas station and some of them have "Auto Spas". I have watched them wipe the rims (brake dust) then continue down the body panel same rag.........Geeeeeeeeeesh
 
I watched my neighbor struggle for the better part of an hour trying to clean 1 wheel and tire on his Jeep Cherokee before I went over to offer some advice. I gave him a bottle brush, tooth brush, two squirt bottles of red power, and 2 squirt bottles of some really weak acid, my alloy wheel mitt, and a wash bucket with 50/50 auto wash/degreaser, showed him how to do it, and told him I would come over later to pick up the supplies when he was done.



30 minutes later, as I shot a glance in his direction, only the one wheel, tire, and fender well (the one that I had already done for him) was the only thing clean, and he had my bottle brush jammed INSIDE the tailpipe! AAAAHHHHH! Honestly I don't even know why I bothered.
 
By next summer, the neighbors are going to wonder what I am going to pull out of the bin next. They are going to go :eek: when I pull out the Makita. :D
