As if... Laughing Laughing

Whatever next? A ban on washing dishes? Most people I know use fairy liquid to wash both their cars and the dishes....what's the difference?

So let's ban car washing so you have to go to a garage, ffs that'll never happen. What next, not allowed to shower at home..

Well, I won't let anyone else wash my car, can't see why I should pay to use someone else's facilities, will never let anything mechanical wash it and will not be rushed........

........it also goes straight back in the garage and covered by a dust sheet.

Why would you wash it away from home and have to drive it back, getting it dirty again.

If they can sort all that out.....

Perhaps a mobile pop up car wash outside your house can be used for free.....so still washing in the street but nobody would see... 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

Unless it is one of the "hand" car wash places with "ladies" in bikinis of course. I bet the silicone is very gentle on the paint work Smile MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

^^^ Can't agree with you there, some of these girls haven't a clue.

These flexi-blades cause lots of damage

as for sponges, you would be better off using a pumice stone
