As above washed and leather Blacky off tonight and i noticed that i fold the mirror's partially in so i can clean the gap between the painted bit and the plastic housing that fits to the door lol and the obligatory blowing down the gap to disperse sitting water pmsl my neighbours do think i have a issue with cleaning lol What strange ritual's do you guys do when cleaning your motors??:cuckoo:

I do the blowing the water out of the handles and mirrors thing but what gets the strangest looks from the locals is when I'm cleaning the steering wheel. I'm sure you can imagine why lol

When I had my Astra gte 16v the water used to sit in the plastic trim around the window & no chamois would get it. I used to slam the doors & boot a few times to save on water marks later. My neighbours thought I was mad. Lol I was OCD on that car though. Polished 5 maybe 6 times a week & always garaged. Used to bike to work if it rained. That is love. Lol

I tend to concentrate on one area and often forget the rest of the car. I had beautiful door hinges once. But general the odd habit I have is not washing the car!!

I take my interior out to hoover it..well the front seats come out and I pop off the rear bench seat and fold down the backs to get all the nooks and crannys ;)

I've almost learnt how to say 'don't go near the rusty bits !' in Polish !
