Snow Removal
#11
In some States it is illegal to leave the snow on the vehicle. As it melts it falls off the car and presents itself as a driving hazard. Have you ever been behind someone when the entire section of snow decides to side off their trunk or roof? The rubber squeegee/water hose works well and doesn't do any damage to the finish. Use the squeegee to remove the majority of snow, then hose the rest off the windows and body. As Jen mentioned, the snow comes off without scratching or damaging the finish.

Remove the snow however you want. Driving in the winter is going to add more scratches than removing snow in your driveway. Every spring just make a big effort to get a good clay, compound, polish, sealant, wax and then keep up on it.
Typically I use a very delicate brush to remove 90%, then I let the sun do the rest. I don't scrape or scrub an area, if it doesn't come off in light brushing, then it stays for now.

Thanks mike and mike, come spring i'll have to learn detailing tips. For now i was thinking of wraping a snow brush in a microfiber towel.

I agree with Mike. Anything that moves across the paint is going to create fine scratches in the clear if the car isn't totally clean, and in the winter that's never.
