its bad when it gets to the time for salty roads, when you need to be washing them more and its just far too cold to do it. foriegn import hand wash car wash places get my business over winter.

I've left the Audi 3 weeks now without a wash, which is shocking for me. Each weekend I plan to do it and then its cold etc etc. Signs i'm getting old tbh. I used to be out there in snow in a t-shirt washing my car!!
Worse thing is my car is getting even dirtier these days due to me doing business mileage now!!
Did the interior today tho.
I even contemplated taking it to a car wash (not a kosovo wash). Them came to my senses.
Which car washes are less harmfull to your car that don't involve doing it yourself?
Kosovo Wash
Arc style wash
Garage mechanical car wash (with the big roller brushes etc)
I'm thinking ARC one?

ben they are all just as damaging mate, your car silver?
if so you could get away with an arc style one every now and again, done this in the saxo as it was silver and hid the swirls well

Yeah silver. Silver definatley hides the swirls well. Although after looking at the A4 under lights it currently doesn't seem to have many at all
I'll probs just man up and do it next weekend tbh.
Snowfoam & 2 bucket FTW
