I washed/waxed/detailed our '99 Ford Ranger yesterday. Took about 4 hours, starting around noon. The predicted high that day was 40 F...Damn near froze my ass off in jeans & sweatshirt because I've never learned how to stay dry when washing a car.

Wax doesn't dry or buff easily at 40 degrees F.

Tip: Wool socks inside the tennies...they help keep your wet feet warm.
