This question probably belongs on the corvette forum but I'd thought I'd try here first.

The butt-end of the car seems to get extra dirty really quick. I just put another coat of Souveran on my car last night, drove it to work, and sure enough the back end was dirty as can be. Any hints or tricks on how you all keep yours clean?

Last night's detail process:
Wash
Crystal Mist (because I have one coat of Souveran already)
WG Glaze
Souveran
Crystal Mist
FK 425 (First time trying. Interested in seeing how long it holds up)

Thanks all!

It's most likely from the airflow, Vipers have this issue as well, rear gets dirt/dust covering it almost immedietley. Though it pry applies to any car as even my suv can be totally squeeky clean for a couple days except for my rear tailgate and window which get covered in dust/dirt. Washes off easily, just annoying as white shows everything.

never had a C5 or C6 with a clean hiney for long. Damn shame, as this is likely the only area everyone see's (my behind).

He washes twice a week and I am pretty sure he has Souveran on it. Just gives you another excuse to spend time with your car... so I guess learn to live with it or give it to me!! :p

my vette tail lights are the worst spot. Well and the little lip around the license plate.

My black C6 does the samething. I just wash and rewax with Souveran.

thats my driver "chris" .... they say its all in the weight savings. Since I am quite a husky guy, he does all my racing. Just wish I could get him to remove the Souveran from the lower spots ...my backs killing me. :p :p :p

Train him to get those "low" areas while he can!! Yeah, Danica ALMOST weighs as much as he does;) Isn't doing her much good though:p

I thought we might have to report you for using those protected by child labor laws as detailers. :D
