I'm going to go vote. Mail something:D then come home and detail a car in the rain.:eek: It's a first for me. I would like to go with a sealant, but with this rain can't do that. I'm thinking XMT3 and 2, AIO, MaxWax or maybe the real good stuff Liquid Souveran. What would Justin do in the rain?

Hey you don't have to worry about the soap drying on the car b4 you rinse.:) Also a good chance to show before and after of the beading.

Isn't there some sort of overhang you can run the car over to? Like a do-it-yourself carwash?

Or maybe the car is due for an oil change and you can quick seal it while it's getting done. :)

Detailing in the Rain!!
Are you nuts??
If you pull that PC out in the rain I'll personally come to your house and put some zip wax on your car just for spite!!

This reminded me, when is it too cold to polish/wax your car? Right now it's about 35-40 degrees here with my car sitting outside, is that too cold to do anything with? Could you do anything if temp was below freezing?
