Too cold to detail here!!
Mpls: -10... windchill -30 something.
Damm, I washed and waxed two vehicles in the driveway last friday in 36 degree sunshine. This weekend it's too cold to even dream about washing off the salt dust.

I'm good to go at 20! The quarter wash here is heated when the wash kicks on. I'll head down around 8:30 pm and have the place to myself.
(I use only the soft water rinse cycle to preserve the coatings)

Got out there to do the C6 just before sunset - water was freezing on the trunk before I could remove it all. Froze my cajones off, man...
Just couldn't tolerate another day with the salt on the rear end
Tomorrow the SUV ? have to try to use a hot bucket (which I didn't do today ) filled in the bathtub - then it's really not a problem at all for me.

Even w/ temps in the low 40s. I don't mess with washing outside.

Aww mannnn--
about 20 F now, just got in from working on the roof for about an hour -
going to take me another hour inside with a space heater just to stop shivering. Don't think I"ll get to do that SUV today.
