What do you use to remove snow off your car?
#81
No way anyone should be using the plastic side near the paint...not if you care about your car. People are using microfiber towels to dry their cars and you're recommending taking that plastic scraper on the paint?

In the winter I have to use the no-touch car wash at my local gas station (it actually does a great job) and people stare at me when I'm wiping my car dry afterwards. Ah well, they'll learn the hard way

If it was that easy to scratch a car then you wouldn't be able to drive it because all the dust you run into would scratch it. I'm sure a car hitting a speck of dust at highway speeds hits the paint with more force than a brush wiping off snow. Some people on here worry way too much.

Some people on here treat their TL as if it's a three hundred thousand dollar Ferrari. It's just a TL.

I treat my TL just like I treat all of my stuff which is with care. It doesn't matter to me how much it is worth because it has value to me so I don't trash it. Some people don't care about their cars and that's fine but use some common sense on the paint.

good lighting = sodium lights and florescent lights.
everytime you wash your car, you scratch the clearcoat. doesnt matter what kind of brush you use, it will scratch.
the thing this, these scratches are so minor and shallow, most of the time they will come out with a coat of wax

i use a car wash brush to get the snow off the sides of the car so it wont slide down and scratch it if it turns to ice. other then that i just leave it and drive my jeep liberty.
for you people that dont clean your cars, you are very inconsiderate. in NY if you dont clean your car now and it causes damage to another vehicle, you get a $1,000 fine($1,500 commercial) and rightfully so. its even more dangerous if its still snowing, and also if it turns to ice.
ive seen chunks of ice come flying off the top of peoples suv's and near hit my car and hit other cars. its idiotic, guaranteed if you had ice flying at you, you would be quite pissed too
