Dedication within 30 mins **Video**

So I decided to try and wash my car today in this....pretty cold weather, and decided to do a time-lapse. Found out that the water in the hose was frozen so had to keep refilling the bucket full of cold water when it came time to wash her down. All in all, my dedication paid off with a clean car and frozen hands, lol.

Enjoy!

I just fill the 5 gal bucket in the sink with hot water. Does the trick, and I can still feel my fingers when finished

Was it a no-touch wash? If not, are most automatic places safe enough to drive through with a wing? I'm always scared to try...

I just got the guts to try the other day since I was afraid my wing would come off too... Everything was fine... Except if u have aftermarket air duct vents for ur brakes it will most likely ruin them.. It bent my metal bracket that the duct bolts to.. So I couldn't turn right all the way home is would cuz crazy vibrations -__-

If u don't have those it shouldn't be a problem. I won't be going through there anytime soon again.
