Paint remover? Oh that just won't be strong enough! You may just have to get rid of the car, and be ashamed of yourself for the shoody worksmanship. LOL

That's my car Sadly winter sucks.. Yesterday no snow, no ice. I see a truck spraying salt all over the damn road. I was yelling in my car at the tops of my lugs. I'm going to wash this Friday or Sunday.. I don't know yet.

I choose not to wash mine when it gets to be this weather..especialy with the salt.

i know its bad for the car...but i figured when it snows again...it will keep the snow from sticking to my car....which makes me happy.

My Balt hasn't been washed since november. Even with these Michigan Winters, it looks better then the day I got it from the dealership.

Oh yea, it also hasn't left the garage since november, so that might have something to do it

I've been lucky so far as far as winter weather goes. Only had one SMALL snow fall, and my car was home and safe before they started sanding. Still hated seeing snow on my car tho.

I have a garage at home, but it's still my daily driver. So I can't let her sit in the garage, unless I do nothing. And I don't like doing nothing all day long
