Like Brand New!

My hubby had my Baby Blue detailed in and out for me for Mother's Day! She looks like brand new again!!

I need to wash and wax Black this weekend if it doesn't rain.
Last weekend I detailed the interior of my wife's '05 Cyber Green NB. We have a 4 1/2 year old son that she takes to school each morning. Well, after so many trips back and forth, her tan interior was filthy. (Small cupholders = lots of spilled Starbucks caramel machiattos) I got up early and washed the exterior and then began work on the interior. She has the leatherette upholstery which made it sooooooo easy to clean with some cleaning wipes. It took some time, but it looked almost new again after I got done. I'll be doing mine next!!

Gonna do some interior cleaning today. But, damn, it's so hot.
i did mine yesterday, the first time without rain for a couple of weeks and i was out there straight after work. i'm sure the novelty is gonna wear off soon but enjoyed it.
only prob is that i'm in a flat so was hauling buckets of water up and down 2 flights of stairs, very gracefully of course!
its so much easier to clean lily-poos than bob, cos of the shape, only takes a bucket and a half of water to rinse.
i'm gonna try and find something like those california dusters that you guys have, that dashboard is a task!
rain rain go away...

i so wanted to wash my elsie bug for the last FIVE days, but it's been a WET 5 days.... it's starting to flood all around here. :( poor elsie bug is so dirty, but no let up in the rain! i feel like it's the middle of wet season! and we normally don't have one! doesn't look good for next couple days either... feel sorry for all the northeast bugs, we're all wishin the rain'd go away!
Today was a good day to wash off the bugs I ran into on my road trip. Also opened a new can of Meguiar's NXT wax. :D

I drive back and forth from Eastern Wa, to Seattle... You should see the bugs.. they dont come off !! I swear they are caked on... The inside of my car is awful. Im at the point where it would be better to buy a new one..:p

Its 64 outside right now, by noon its going to be 90.. I think maybe I will try and wash Herbie today, and sweat a little...:)

If you keep the front end (at least) waxed they come off much easier. And use warm water too. One of these days when Chip gets really buggy I'll take pics. Then we can have a contest with the buggiest bug buggin

Well, my friend was carrying her potato salad bowl on her lap, and yes, in my car, in the passenger seat. I dont know what she was thinking, but the lid came off,-- potato salad on the seat. I just about died...:mad:

I have used Tuff Stuff for the last two days, the more ya scrub the better this stuff works. Gotta love it :heart:


I wont have cloth seats ever again!
After much rain. I just finish waxing bandit. I ordered a front end cover front carbras.com. So i'm prepared when it's delivered.
