It's the first 60° day, last week we had 4 inches of snow and it was 16°.



Anyway, rail rust creeped onto my car attacked my badges, attacked Klasse and infiltrated some of the lower spots.



I hate cinders man, they are the worst, scratch your car right up.



It's going to take all week to get my car into original condition. :mad:



Winter's are harsh man, can't wait till I live someplace warmer.



Well at least my baby looks back to it's normal self.
 
Steve,



I feel your pain! I don't think I live too far from you, I'm in Cleveland. Got up to 62 today but I was committed to detailing my sister's Camry. All the while my poor black Passat was sitting on the adjacent concrete pad, begging me to please throw it a friggin bone!



I washed it last Sunday, it looked great. Then (you know what happened Sunday night) Monday morning had to drive to work in a salt/ice slush that had my exterior totally trashed by the time I got to work. :angry



Good thing we have another great weather day in store tomorrow (upper 60s). I am giving my car TOTAL attention and will wash, clay, AIO, SG, and P21S/S100...usually takes me around 6-7 hours the way I do it!



And I think the weather forecast will allow me to actually ENJOY my hard work for at least a few days...! :cool:
 
I hear you, I live 2 hours away in Toledo. Took the opportunity today to wash and start polishing the car. How do you do all that in 6-7 hours though? Polishing usually takes me a long time, but I'm pretty inexperienced...do you usually rub it so it's a very thin sheen over the paint, or thicker so you can see it if you stood 12-15 feet away? What's SG, btw?
 
It took me all day but I got it all off. I'm just glad it was able to come off easily, I'm sure the Klasse helped.



I'm on the 4th "work in" of AIO, and I'm going to do one coat of SG, every day this week.



Thank God for clay and EFHI for the wheels, they got beat up too. They too are getting re-Klassed.



Ohio winters are rough.
