Is a pain in the arse


It is one of my most hated of tasks. I wish i had the skill and patience of Painz. But unfortunatly i find it soooooooooooo boring and tiresome. Got a bloody meet on wednesday night so i suppose i better remove the 3 weeks worth of bugs of the front of it


anyone else share this hatred?

Find it therapeutic mate....my car doesnt go nowhere yet i still wash and polish it as it makes me all calm in la la land

All you got to do is take your time start early in the day then when it gets too hot take a break and start again around 7ish when its cooling down then off to the pub when finished

Mine was done about a year ago.

Mines used everyday and its well, fucked. Front bumper 1 arch bonnet all need re-doing. oh and one of the front arches too.

I also twatted the rear bumper slightly and made the paint splinter, can hardly see it like but it makes me cry

I love cleaning light coloured cars, I won't clean my dads 307 which is metalic black as its never spotless.

Bring your car around tonight Jambo, I'll clean it for you.

Are you excited about tomorrow?

Actually Jambo I had a dream lastnight I was in your car with you and was scared you were going to drive like a looney and we were gonna crash.
