Just got back from our local car wash,( car lovers) gave the subie a clean up,
Well!! I thought i did, the flaming thing is now dirtier than when i started.
Wondering about their recycling and filtration systems?? It looks like what one person washes off the next guy wipes on.
Annoyed
Cheers axle.

Try and wash your car on the lawn in SYD and you get dirty looks from all that drive past (Regardless to if are using a hose or bucket) Oh and I also measured and timed the difference between using buckets and hoses and YES the hose is far more efficient .....But who cares about facts !!!!

Supacheap sell a cheap version of a karcher /gernie . have had ours for over 4yrs now ,does the job of cleaning the 4x4 easy ,can have a beer while doing so, [try that at car lovers] and gives our lawn a much needed drink here in
Brisbane where soon it will be a crime to wash your car any other way.

I dont use carlovers or any other carwash anymore as I was told by an automotive painter that the chemicals they use are caustic.
Caustic = paint removal over time.

If I did it on my front lawn I'd be worried that Brash would come and claim it as a piece of Victoria ... After the last trip in the High Country I brought half of it back up here - amazing how much mud can sit under a 100 series.

I stopped using these types of car washes a long time ago. Seemed the harder you scrubbed and the foamer it gets, the more it smeared the road grime all over the place. Cost $6 for a grimier car. Money that could have been better spent at the pub across the road from it :)
