Hey guys, as above topic.

 

I find it very hard to shampoo, rinse etc the very top of the car. Recently, I started bringing down a knee-height wooden stool but it's hard work getting up and down.

 

Just want to find out how do you guys do it? I notice the kiosks' car washes usually have a mop-like thingy but wana find out how DIY washers do it

what if you can't reach places where there has been bird bombing missions?

 

sorry, just to add, I have a skyroof, in the middle of it always have very nice bird splatters..some look like laosai or vomit..thus, frequently need to clear the top

skyroof for jazz. I did try stepping on the side before..bloody water dripped onto the seat..made things even more messy

 

agree on the stool + water combination..now no longer spring chicken, that's why looking for easier alternative lor

stand on the rear tire, shd be able to reach most of the roof.

 

then again, my arms may be longer than urs. if u lower suspension too much, this option also not viable [:p]

U shld get a good chamois, suck up de H2O 1st. Den open door and step on side step b4 wipe de inner spot. Normally those "groove" alway accumulate lots of H20. Have sunroof wif visor also sometime can forget! Hiden inside c--t see.

 

Stool, dangerous. Wooden ones r stable till u tilt and dent ur car! [furious]

 

1.65 u shld have no problem just wiping without de stool or step on de side step.

Ur ride n ur height shld have no problem reaching. Try using a longer sponge. Can "xtend" ur arm a few cm. Or sponge de spot 1st wif shampoo 1st b4 de rest of de car, u can still step on de side step.

 

Normally I see bird sh it I clean off straight, neber let it stay long. Else sticky problem.
