Woke up to my car covered in dust/muck?

[Noesph]

Same in surrey, trouble is living on a main road and working at a engineering works I thought it was from that. I didn't really take much notice till I read it on here.

Happened to me too in Romford. I thought it was a bit excessive for a little country lane drive home the day before.

Yeah - sorry about this chaps, it's my fault, apologies.


Basically, every time I spend an entire day valeting my car - thorough wash, clay bar, polish, two coats of wax - you know, 8 odd hours of work - the following night, we get cascades of dirty, sandy rain...



This has happened to me about 3 times in the last 3 years now! Honestly, I would swear it's my luck and my fault - every SINGLE time I've given my car a day's polishing, I wake up the following day to this st! Arrrggghhhh!1!!!111!!

Leeds as well...

[Esseesse]

I've had this too.

Cleaned my car on Saturday. It rained on Sunday night I think it was and left sandy blobs all over my car.

Think yourself lucky you could be tranter

Oh well,at least all it will need now is a quick wash.I woke up to find mine covered in it this morning so i gave it a wash around dinner time an a couple of hours later it pissed it down and covered it in sand again!!

Just think ourselves lucky we all haven't had to deal with the giant hailstones which have wrecked several thousand cars in the midlands today.

I wondered why my car looked as though it had been abandoned at a Dubai airport!

My car is covered in it but can't remember the last time i actualy cleaned my car and being red gelcoat can't be arsed to wash and polish it. Im in south wales my mate in work has a black x5 looks terriable only 1 day after a car wash aswel.

[russy01]

and me down in somerset.

Washed the car the night before, looked bloody lovely. The next morning it looks like this.

Yup, my car's black too. It looks clean for about five minutes after it's washed then shows everything. Today was just worse than usual.

[johnnymaestro]

Cleaned all cars on Sunday. Now all cleaned again. Bloody travelling dust.

[essexplumber]

Harlow Essex, bought my first ever Black car last week (X3) and its caked in the stuff.

In a past life, I flew paragliders for ooh, nearly fifteen years. The art of it would be catching rides on thermals to cloudbase, just like soaring birds. On occasion, I would get into rising air at more than 10 metres per second, roughly 20 mph straight up.

Weather is powerful. Really poweful. The energy in a cumulonimbus is immense.

There was a five or six car queue at the local petrol station car wash all day long.

[Rollcage]

Cool starry bra!

[SavanP]

So annoying, washed my car on Monday and boom overnight ruined!

Leicester FYI.

[sebhaque]

The Evo earlier today - only cleaned it last weekend! Bah.

[OldSkoolRS]

Went outside with my new pressure washer and it made short work of shifting the dust with a bit of snowfoam first to soften it. Did mine and my OH's car and still had time for a top down drive to make the most of the warm evening.
