Cold weather car wash?

Yep! That's why we're so addicted to coffee in Seattle - we need the caffeine buzz to help us make it through the 10 - 11 months of wet, gray skies... It's too bad the weather wasn't good when you were out here - it's quite nice on those few occasions when the sun does come out :-) I also had someone put a coat of the polymer paint sealant on my Fit a week ago to keep it protected during the winter months because it probably won't get it's weekly bath (but I'll at least try to have it washed a couple times a month).

It's just a matter of convenience to go to one of those touchless automatic places -- especially in the winter. I see vehicles costing 2-3 times what I spent on the Fit going through these washes. The Chicago winters demand getting all that salt off cars whenever possible. I hate swirls, but I hate rust even more....

Optimum No rinse is the answer. I detail cars and use this even in the summer. Requires 4 gallons of water, 2 buckets and 2oz of optimum no rinse. Works amazing, takes less than 20 minutes and can be done in the garage. Also a good quick detail spray wipedown about twice a week while keep it looking clean.
