what fucks me off even more is when you've spent a good 2hours+ cleaning the car, looks mint, can see your face in it - then about 5 minutes later some arse of a bird comes along and shites on it seems to always happen to me

what fucks me off the most is cleaning the front wheels

black wheels are the way forward, (black with brake dust that is)

You need a chamios drying cloth!

Wash a bit of the car, rinse it and then dry it... wash another bit of car, rinse it then dry it... Repeat till car is clean.

only way to stop the streaks.

I don't mind cleaning my cars. Thing is, if i clean them i get a little carried away and clean the inside, wash and wax. Takes me like a day to do both. Then there is the fact that i have to clean the flat after i've made a right mess with the hose pipe and finding things. I always get soaked too

I like to do them a couple times a week but never happens. It so shit living on your own
