Well me and my hubby usually wash both of our cars at the same time, so I do the interiors of both cars and he cleans the exteriors.

I wash my own car. Can't say I do anything truly special. My paint job is the 10-year-old original, so it looks *ahem*lovely*ahem*.

I love to wash my car in the summer with my bikini on and groovin to the radio in the garage.

I've never even taken my car to a touchless car wash, much less let anyone else wash my baby.

Sorry, I'm just overprotective I guess. Nobody has ever eaten inside my car, and every drink has to have a lid!!!!
lol
Well maybe it's an obsession...

I have to wash it like every other day though...white wheels like to get dirty.

I wash all my kids by meself.....which isnt often, I live on a main road and work down a dirt road(and yes, I do drive down the dirt road 'ralley' style so Im probaly one of the big reasons there is so much filth on my car)

I am fairly anal about things being spilled, and dropped in my SE-R, but both my dogs(full coated cocker spaniels) drag enough nature into it to think that one has stumbled upon a forest when riding with me(i do try to vaccuum her out at least once a week)

the Integra, I could care less about, the body is getting sent to the auto recycler after we pull the engine and drive line anyway

The CRX, who cares, the interior won't exist in a few months anyway, and you wont be able to take both hands off the wheel long enought to eat/drink while you are attempting to control the beast thats gonna be under that hood...

The Beetle is gonna have the interior re-done later, the current interor is yucky....i mean :apuke: yucky

Nope, not an obsession. Neither of us let anyone eat in our cars and same as you, ALL drinks have to have a lid otherwise it’s no go. I want to keep my car looking new for as long as I can.

I wash my car to.... I have been through a touchless car wash before...which is good, but still have to wash the rims properly or chamois the car afterwards anyway....that was a freebie so I tried it....its good if you don't have time...

depends on whether I"m giving the car the works....

so, I'll leave a few hours to do the whole thing...vacuum....wash....polish rims...possiblly polish the car....etc.....

actually its due for a wash...its really dirty.... ok....

better go do it now

Hell yeah I wash my own... there's no way I'm letting 4+ hours of washing, polishing, and waxing go out the door by taking it through a carwash. Even when I borrow my friend Mike's cars (they're always dirty), the first thing I do when I get hom is give them a thorough cleaning. I can't stand a dirty car.

Amen to that.


It's really hard though...especially with white wheels and me being a perfectionist. I end up rinsing them off and rubbing them down every other day or so... :hehe:
