Me Naughty

After a busy week 2 weeks ago, I found my car covered in salt.... being corrosive (or so the missues says), I figured I needed to wash it off..

But last week it was awful weather, and being very busy with work, i just didn't have time to wash the car properly.... so i put it through a supermarket car wash :blush:

So now its covered in little scratches :angry: ....

I am the only one that has given in on hand washing for the winter???

i put mine through a car wash in the summer to save time and was devastated when i had a proper look at it, scratches everywhere. thankfully the 3 stage Meguiars sorted that out. needless to say i wont be using a car wash ever again, i came in on sunday from cleaning the car and had to defrost my hands!

I used a Jet Wash on Saturday.....never again. Even the brush on those are too harsh for the IS paint :angry:

Too ****ing right ifraz :angry: Mine still needs sorting. Only thing the jet wash is good for is the alloys... or does it sratch them up too :angry:

thankfully the 3 stage meguiars sorted that out.

To good as new? I've tried loads of different makes etc nothing seems to be sorting it out.. and Meguiars isnt that much dearer :whistling: shame its not ideal weather to be doing the 3 stage process :crybaby:

The neighbours think I'm mad, I had the car since August it been hand washed every weekend since, when I had my Ford it went through a carwash once every six month whether it needed it or not!!!

I have a Lexus but I can handle it I'm not addicted honest

I went out and bought myself a powerwasher from B&Q, only cost me about 50 quid

i hope your not gonna use it on your lex chris,its mint,use a sponge man :)

I use it just to blast the excess dirt off, especially from the arches then I just use the normal bucket and sponge

If your car is under waranty,

simply call in at your local Lexus dealership and make up a complaint.

When your car goes in for a look it will come back clean! B) :ph34r:

For a while now we have taken a leaf from the book of our yank cousins. Thus a chap in funy little Van comes to the house weekly and does 3 cars for £14 each in and out like new. Much better than queuing up at those converted petrolstation places. After seeing a spotty youth drop the chamois and then pick it up without rinsing and applying it to a 52 plate Rav4 I would never risk it.

(rhumour has it the Mrs once took LS through a BP car wash after a muddy trip. She didn't get any that night, I can tell you!)
