Washing in the rain!
here in Austin we are in the midst of a severe drought. They ban us from any outdoor car washing (which really tricks me off).
So anytime it is raining like a shower that went thru this morning - I grab all of my equipment and head out to the driveway. These brief showers pass in an hour or so and it is usually cloudy for awhile. I get a small break in the time for the shower to end and wait to dry it until it has past.
I then break out the air compressor and blow it dry, then I've always used the blue-blade to squeegee a lot of the water and continue they drying with microfiber towels.
neighbors think I'm crazy because I do it almost year round and sometimes it gets real cold in the winter - but I love cleaning and detailing my truck.
Anyone else wash in the rain?

Not in the rain, but on my own. I do not like car wash stations, I like and prefer to clean it by my own hands. I get the real satisfaction then.

Re: Washing in the rain!
I live in Florida and have no problem when it rains. It prevents the water from drying while Im still washing, rinses it if its heavy enough, then I pull it in my garage and dry the car off. I have a heavy duty long rain coat just for these occasions.
