Asked my wife to help me wash the car when we 1st got it. Had her clean up her side to make a point... and it worked. Except now she gets pissed off when she notices finger marks on her side and wants to know who left them.

Yes, I totally forgot about that knee issue! Although those knees are nice, please give me the extar inch I need to shift 5th and 6th gear.

Oh, yeah.... when they decide to sit on their left leg... take your frigon shoe off and keep if off my seat! I'll take the lotion on the door as well but dont touch the glass, use my dash as a brake, and keep shoes on the frigon seat!

You better keep opening the door for her too. She'll continue to think you're the perfect gentelman, but you know you're doing it because you don't want her to use the paint surrounding the door handles to sharpen her rings . . .

BIG smoke

My wife uses lots of moisturizer too. Worse is sunblock, in the summer. Constantly cleaning the silver film off my car and her X5. Glad I don't have leather there. I wouldn't be able to get it out.
Wife was either following a tar truck the other day, or drove through some wet tar. The passenger side was soaked and splattered with black goo everywhere. What a mess. Tried a clay bar. That took off the small stuff, but didn't touch the big stuff. Then lighter fluid, that was better, but too much rubbing. Finally, a gassy clean rag. That took it off quickly and efficiently. Left the rags outside to dry off. Super soaped the car again, and a coat of wax. Wife did offer to help clean the car after dinner, but the job was done. Double beer in a frozen stein, was my reward.

Dark Helmet

yeah... that would be my favorite trick ever...

Yes, since we live in the desert, my wife bathes in sunscreen and it turns the seat and passenger door white. A little leather spray wipes it up though.

My ex used to take off her shoes and put her bare feet on the dash of my daily. Im still trying to unscuff the plastic parts of it. It might be a daily but I like to keep it in as good condition as possible.

Of course, she always seemed confused when I would tell her to not slam the door

Ha, here's a couple that will drive you wild
My then girlfriend decided to help me clean my windows and used a 'brite' scrubbing pad, first time in the sun and there are a million tiny scratches in the windshield, off to the glass place for a new windshield.
Or riding with the top down while she is eating an ice cream cone and there are globs of ice cream flying around the interior at speed.
Then she brings her french bull dog in the car, ever see a bull dog sneeze?
Time for a new girlfriend you ask? Nah, married her, now she and the bulldog ride in the A7.

Nothing in comparison when your kid throw up, after getting too much icecream . Half processed sour milk smell in a car - it is brutal.

But, all cleanable. So the moral here is the same - it is just a car. If it is dirty - clean it, use some fabreeze and keep going.

My wife actually said that with the top down in my old Boxster, her makeup would blow off !! wha?

Peace
