Re: [Chevelle-list] To Wash or Not To Wash?

[Michael Pell]

I only use a hose and soap when the car is really filthy. 
And if it is too dusty for a 'California' duster, then I use a wet wash 
mitt (no soap), and just wipe it down, and follow with a towel (soft 
cloth, and do sections at a time).    This cuts way down on the water 
spots also.

Why does a slight tax increase cost you $200.00 and a substantial tax cut saves 
you $30.00?

    When I was driving my 66 every day I washed it at least twice a
    week if it needed it or not. But I live up a dirt road so it
    needed it. I did a 67 442 Olds for a guy a few years back and
    since it left my shop he claims it hasn't seen water since. Myself
    even after I get my 66 done, it will see water and a wash mitt if
    I deem it nescessary. And when I stop showing it and start driving
    it, it will probably get washed a whole lot more due to the long
    overdue floggings it will recieve!!
