Suffering from detailing withdrawal?

**otruba_843** · 02-25-2013, 07:53 PM

So my car has had it pretty bad in the past 3 weeks. We have been getting a lot of rain in these weeks so I have gone 3 weeks without washing or anything detailing related. This past friday my car was backed into ruining the whole door. Not able to drive it up to the BMW collision center till Wednesday with the rain tomorrow, P.S. the door was bent open exposing the interior. My guess is it will be there for at least 2 weeks. They said a BMW door takes a long time to get in

I must do something. I want to goto Advanced and pick up some new Griots Garage products they got in, but there is no point till I get my car back. Must detail

Got any suggestions? I already wiped all of the brake dust off of the wheels with a QD and a microfiber so while the car sits, it doesn't get into the CC.

Lol try living in the north where you cant detail for four-five months out of the year because of the salt and snow unless you have a heated garage with a drain which most people dont.
