No Good Deed Goes Unpunished

[Loz]

despite washing, de-tarspotting, washing again and polishing Mrs Loz’s car I am in the dog house.

Because in my rush to clean up and get ready to go to the MiL’s for lunch, I threw the all the microfibre cloths in the washing machine with the weekly wash.
Unfortunately this included the one I had used for the tar remover.

So when we got home and the washing machine was emptied... all the clean washing and now the house smells of tar remover...

Doh!

Don’t try this at home folks...

Can't do right for doing wrong...

Oh dear. I know how bad that is, we have to throw away any microfiber cloths we've used tar remover on. They stink out the van if not, so I cannot imagine what your house smells like. A chemical factory I suspect.

I did same thing today with turtle wax micro fiber cloths !

What tar remover do you guys recommend using?

 

[Loz]

Gtechniq or Autoglym.

SWMBO comes into garage throws open doors windows because of the disgusting smell ( glues paints etc and yes. The occasional f@rt ) then goes back in the house. I go into house to find her at the kitchen table with a small lake of nail polish remover...am I allowed to open a window... no .... because it’s different.....but dear it’s the same solvent I’ve just been using outside but I pay the same for a gallon as you pay for a smalll bottle....I forgot that you can throw small bottles

I did the same last week with a wash full of new towels. It’s potent stuff!
