Dirty Black Rain

[Jay 72]

I spent two hours cleaning and polishing my car yesterday, and a further hour cleaning the GF's car. My Yaris had never looked better B)

I went to sleep content, but I woke up this morning with a Saharan sand dune dumped over my car during the night :censor:

At the supermarket, it was like a scene from the Paris - Dakar rally. I wish I had a !Removed! garage, even to cut down on the damn cleaning

i share your pain dude ;)

[Boro Sera]

I live within a few miles of a main ICI plant - nightly fallout all over the cars is a real pain. I share your pain too !

I must add, it rained a little today in Oxford.

When I went out to the car, the rain had dried, but it left muddy splodges all over the car, I can't remember that happening before.

:o

Used to it now usually spend 2-3hrs on a sunday waxing cleaning the car then sit down for lunch

look out the window to see my hard work being ruined

[rallybunny]

I thought it was just our neighbours doing some building work. My car is a mess. :(

[T600]

Hm, ours is too.

The MR2 was in the garage, but we left the IS overnight at a friend's in Nottingham and got a taxi home. Then when we picked it up it was covered in sandy splodges.

Never seen anything like it after the car's been out just one night, and I was wondering how it had happened.

Strange.

[S.Kayani]

Apparently that's exackly what it was: Bizzare Stuff about sandy rain in Wales this Jan

[Y4R15 D4N]

I often look at car dust covers in ARGOS and think "could you be ubikd with one of them", but after spending 3 hours+ cleaning your car to have it coated in cack like that, I could justify it totally.

Ok. I don't 'Often' look at them...
