  • Bath Time

    Took Lindsey's Rabbit for a bath a few weeks ago while i had some time off and had my point and shoot with me. As you can see the jetta front is back on and with minor changes done.

    snapped a couple.

    I like this new look better. Sidemarker delete and OEM HID's would be money.

    Looks like a lot of suds. Did you use the car wash brush???
    Tint sucks

        I always use the brush. I wash the brush before I use it. But its white so I don't really care. If it were a darker color I wouldint fare touch it with a brush! I've detailed and polished enough cars in my day!

          I was just going to ask about this. My car is gray and I wasn't sure if the brush would scratch the paint or not, would it? I usually only rinse, soap, rinse and it seems to do the job. I just haven't figured out what type of towel to dry it with.

            I wouldn't use the brush on the gray, as swirls are definitely more evident.

              I wouldint use the brush on grey. And for god sake don't use a towel either! Chamios only!

              I'm going to tell everybody a little secret as to where to get the best chamios in the city. Go to GSL chev city downtown and go to the parts dept. Ask for the ones that car brite sells. I don't remember how much they are but they are the best ones. I've had mine for over 6 years and all I do is throw it in the washing machine a couple times a summer and pressure wash it off at the car wash before I use it! Its big so you could cut it in two.

              There now my secret is out as to where I get the chamios I have!

                Yeah! I didn't use any towels on it. I sat and waited for 45 minutes yesterday at the car was for it to drip dry, how sad is that?

                  Wow thats dedication. As long as your towel is clean you should be fine, "The Absorber" works well and I noticed that Crappy Tire also sells a big drying towel now that also looks good.

                    I love cars, that's for sure. Once I use the towel on it, if it's the wrong towel then I'm screwed. I would rather sit there for 45 minutes and let it drip dry lol.
