  • Anyone been detailing with this heat?

    Im wondering if anyone has been detailing since friday when it was a high of 80. It was 98 in NJ yesterday and today and feels like 102-105 throughout the day and so humid it is disgusting. The heat does not move out until wedsday so the cars will not be done this week. TO HOT

    I'm in PA, and detailed my ride last week. The good part about the dry, hot weather is that all I had to do was use the duster this morning, and it was back to spotless.

                I helped out a friend today by getting some bad scratches out of his wifes BLACK Maxima. It was about 1.5 hours in 99 degrees heat with what felt like 100% humidity. You walk outside and BAM you are dripping wet.

                    I worked on my car last week, but only when the sun started to go down. It's been 100+ for the last week here, and only appears to be going up

                      It's 6:30 AM here and I just finished a wash and UQD on the firebird. Wife thought I was crazy but after doing my daughters mazda 6 yesterday afternoon when it was close to 90 , I wanted to beat the heat today, It's a cool 77 right now.

                            Wrong! Nick lives right down the road from me and the humidity was around 80% at my house today and that's a good day.

                              We did two 40 ft RVs today. Not too bad only in the 90s.
