Going to try to finalize it this weekend.

I also have a plethora of pictures and some other 'goodies' that I've picked up over the years that I can tag into the text -- mainly a 'paint deck' that I snared that Meg's put out for Chrysler. It's *EXCELLENT* and has killer pictures (if I can get them to scan properly -- which will take a lot of time - and is likely a copyright infringement on some level - )

You'll never prevent it unless you never drive/touch it. They happen to those of us who use exemplary washing/drying techniques

Search a few of these key topics and I think you'll get a wealth of information:

1. Two bucket wash
2. Blot dry
3. Leaf Blower
4. Let the sponge or mitt do the work
5. Foamy brush
6. Tunnel wash
...

And by reading the soon to come sticky.

RP-- Funny you should mention pics... RollingRock and myself were thinking the same thing-- getting some good pics into it... Another thing is that I may have some pics to add to it-- depending on what you have already. Also, the next thread I am putting to gether is going to be GREAT for those who dont want to go all out...You will see...

<edited to add> BTW-- what is the max number of characters per post, so I can plan accordingly (I start long ones on MS word)? Thanks.
