well I got up this morning and thought hey... Nice day I'll wash the truck and then wax it before the sun comes over the house...


Well all started good.. the Bucket of warm soapy water, get her wall soaped up and cleaned.. Rinse her off and go to dry her off....

Hummm this is funny.. the whole top of the rear cover roof and hood are one big sheet of ICE!!!!!!

Whats going on here.. This is warm sunny Southern California !!!!!

 

Blast a pressure washer into your door lock key holes when it is -40 and you will have a real problem.

 

Warm or hot water freezes faster than cool or cold water.

 

Umm is this the global warming I've been hearing so much about lately?

 

This is it! The earth has warmed .6 of a degree in the last 150 years and the tree huggers blame it on Bush.

 

I think we swapped places , there should be 3' of snow here , but the temp has been hovering right around or slightly above freezing.

 

well it was a sunny 70 degress here in Gawgia today. Pretty nice day if I could say so myself. Washed the truck in shorts and a t-shirt!!!! it's all perrttied up now!!!!

 

I was in beautiful downtown Baldwin Park today,and i must say it was a bit chilly. Colder tonight! P.S. I survived 15,91,71 and Interstate 10 coming up from San Diego. Makes me appreciate where I live.

 

i need to move, is like 5degrees her and weve gotten about 3 inches of ice and freezing rains still kickin!

 

I was in beautiful downtown Baldwin Park

I did not know there was such thing!

 

Also a warm moist tongue applied to cold surfaces tend to stick readily.

 

Not true...How can more BTU's of heat be removed from Hot water faster than from cooler water?

Now to give some leeway on this if you are comparing boiling water to hot tap water, it is possible...sort of...The boiling water will evaporate enough volume to the point that it can surpass the cooling speed of the hot tap water. Due to less volume to remove heat from.

 

The other morning I was driving to work and it was still dark out, anyhow the oncomming traffic's headlight were glaring real badly off my dirty windshield, so I used the spray and wipe. Well, that lasted for about 5 seconds until my entire windshield was covered with a slushy type of ice that I couldn't see through! I quickly rolled down my window, stuck my head out like a dog, and pulled over. Luckily I had a piece of cardboard I could use as a makeshift ice scraper! The ice age is comming when it gets like this in SoCal!

 

Geee, people actually wash their trucks??
I haven't washed my truck since......November....
