I was looking at the 70% chance of no rain. Hard to beat those odds.

hi msbc! sorry to hear about the rain. the speedshine doesn't have enough lubricity to do a wash. You will want to get the Griot's SprayOn CarWash for such occasion.

use lots of towels (use only clean section and one swipe per side).
