Just washed the
« on: September 15, 2011, 11:53:21 am »
Just washed the Westy and what a job it turned out to be. I wont tell you how long it's been since I washed it but I think the mold started growing into the paint.

I know, I'm embarrassed.

It's not Mold, it's Character. Are you embarrassed that you washed it? Hey, at least you didn't wax it.

 Next time take it too one of those spots were the boyscouts or local baseball team is having a car washing fund drive.  Money goes to a good cause - and since we cant have kids work in factories anymore, let them spend their youthful energy on your bus!  Hey, they prob would love to wash it  byeby., , afterwards you can show em a bit about it, talk to them   3#blab#  3#blab# and maybe start planting VW seeds in their little minds.. and who knows....... clap2-* clap2-* clap2-*.

What is more annoying, is my new car is wax-able... so I have no excuse now. The left side looks pretty decent. Might start the right side tonight when it cools down.
