Bet it didn’t do the glass much good turning the wipers on
Bet it didn't do the paintwork much good getting it off, either. :o

I’ve had both the car paint and glass ceramic coated some time ago which is holding up really well so no, with the correct washing technique there was no damage. I am well impressed with the Gyeon MOHs+ coating. :thumbsup:
 
Got a bit grimy from salty German autobahns on a February visit to the Küppersmühle Museum a few years ago but apart from that it's usually languishing (cleaned) under its' Stormforce cover.
Went to marvel at some massive Frank Auerbach paintings and to have a good old chuckle at some of the Joseph Beuys stuff. Idk how that guy got away with it - takin the proverbial all them years ago!
:roll:

Beuys. Not so impressive

He could have used clean brushes or is it meaningful being mucky. :D :headbang:

I don't quite know what Beuys was trying to convey with that one.
Perhaps the concept of inequality, proximity and deterministic socio-political implications between small and large, as well as the vicissitudes of modern ideology via the medium of 2 old scrubbers. Who knows?
:rofl:

I think it is, yes.
They are shoe cleaning brushes and have been used. But there are no shoes... :o
Conveying a sense of uselessness or loneliness, or grief.....


Or he could have found some old brushes under the kitchen sink and stuck 'em in a box hoping to make a few quid. :idunno:

That is impressive that the glass didnt get scratched by a wiper going straight over the sand
 
I don't mind mine getting dirty but its satisfying getting them clean again!

Was filthy after 7 days in Suffolk. Now clean after 20 mins at Ruby's Car Wash, Charlton.

Neither daily or weekend car will get a wash until the spring now. just don't see the point in washing cars over winter, they'll only get immediately dirty again... :?
