I washed the car, then decided to take the wheels off for a proper clean/wax and halfway through the process is started pissing it down.

So i got wet, put the wheels back on and then dried it off in the garage.

LOL...looks like we all got caught out.
Snow foamed mine, rinsed then started to dry, only to have to 'launch' it down the drive to get it back in the garage as it started raining....forgetting the brakes were some what wet and rusty !!!!! nearly came a cropper.......

All done now though, Clayed and Banana waxed.......lets hope the roads are dry in the morning.

I bet it gets cleaned in the morning.

Either that or your frightened of hitting a puddle on the way to Rye.

So your looking for an excuse.
