    I know how you feel. I hate putting in all the work and then someone spills something or it rains.

    rain is no big deal bec i just go outside in the rain throw some soap on my truck scrub it and hose it all off, if left in the driveway the rain will wash all the hard water off and should leave it with hardly any water spots lol

    Even if I find stuff wong, I love detailing it. Sometimes nothing is better than a hot day, a cold beer, and a few hours in the driveway with my truck

    Yeah, we own trucks. They can't stay pretty forever! I love to keep mine in the best possible detailed condition. Between, the woods, pollen, road salt, ignorant people, mud, hunting, fishing, camping, the beach etc.. It keeps me busy but I dont mind. I like doing it.

    just the amount of time it takes. I like doing it and once I start i don't mind the process of it, its just the build up to the time commitment for it that kills me.

    Rolling the hose up at the end is always a pain, so is putting the stuff away. But if i let that stuff bother me, my truck would never get washed

    Washed my truck again today, didn't find anything out of the ordinary for once but I need to use some clay on my roof though.
