AAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHH, spent six hours detaing the @!#$%^& out of my car yesterday, polished it out to perfection, put a coat of DG 105, Klasse, and Pinn Paste Glaze, polished out all the windows and sealed them, and of course as soon as I gewt to work it freakin starts to rain, I'm so pissed, it never fails. Okay, I'm done venting, thanks for listening.

Seems like mother nature dose not like the competition hehehe so she has to put water on a shiny car...I'm sure we can all relate to your frustratrion buddy. I kinda enjoy having extra vehicles to drive, because once I detail mine I just leave it in the garage and admire it...then the next weekend (if the weather is nice) I take it out hehehehe :D

You know its only going to get worse as we get further into Hurricane season.
Black car + Hurricane season = Extreme Frustration. All I can do is stock up on Waterless Wash, AW, & Spray Souveran and hope for the best.

California's having weirdo weather.

Sorry to hear about that Excessive, but I was expecting something worse, something permanent *knocks on wood*.

Only thing that beats rain after a detailing is bird droppings.....almost like they spot the cleanest car and start having a contest about witch bird hits the car first.

Look man don't let it get to you just chill out, have a brew and re-wash it. It happens to everyone, It happens to me regularly depending on the time of year though, but I feel your pain. The worst is when it sprinkles for about two minutes and then its sunny the rest of the week and now the car looks like crap. But I stoped letting it bother me. Think of it this way, because of all the hard work you put into it, a simple wash and it will look as good as the day you detailed it. No sense in getting mad a mother nature, you won't win and it'll make you age faster.

Thanks for all the comments, but I think I just got upset over nothing, it stopped raining not to long ago and the sun came out and dried all the water. Of course then I was like now i'm gonna have water marks, but to my ammazement not one single mark, it looked just like it did after I finished last night, big ups to DG 105 and Klasse, and Pinn Glaze. Still I qd it with some PB WW and Purple MF, and then took some pics, really, really bored at work. The pictures don't do it justice put I figured I'd show thwem anyway.
