My Camaro crys ???
Every time I wash my car and everything (I would think) is dry, I drive around the block and there is Niagra Falls coming from my tail lights! So yesterday I washed, dried, took out the tail lights dried back in there, opened the hatch dried everywhere I could find that had water, I close the hatch drive around to the front of my house, walked around and guess what did grace my eyes with it's joyous presence? The elixir of life known as water all down my bumper (most of it dried because yeah, I can never have the car clean)! Where is it coming from?!?
Please, thank you, and Merry Chri- oops I mean Happy Holidays!

I cant believe the ignorance of that post. Dont even try to tell me that was supposed to be sarcastic, b/c there's nothing even remotely sarcastic behind it. Someone else will probably flame me, but you know what? I really dont give a rats ***. Im a Jew and there's no point behind that post - period.

yeah anyways, also the water could be collectin sandwich style on the rear spoiler, cuss i know everytime i open the hatch after it being dried i see water at eye level already makin it's run down to the tail lights.
and since we commenting on the christmas thing...... dont really give a **** who gets hurt and what not. cuss you know what, no matter how hard you try not to step on anyones toe's, your gonna affend somebody, never fails. If anyone thinks thats narrow minded, owell this whole entire country is narrowminded...thats why all this crap started in the first place.

first, if anyone cant stand someone saying "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Hanahkuh" or whatever they're belief is, then they need to be shot. Its not like they are tryin to convert you, and getting upset over them sayin it is no different then driving by a church and wishin it would burn to the ground because its not your faith. This is America, you have to have some ignorance to live here. Its bad enough the majority of Americans dont speak english anymore.
As for the car, it happens to me all the time. Usually if you can let it sit, youll be fine. But if you cant get it all and it dries on you, that mequires stuff works and so does GM Gloss enhancer. And if you use the big blue towel to dry or an absorber, a little bit of dampness on them work just as well also.

As stated above, open the trunk lid and let the water run out. Run a towel (not an Absorber, because there's going to be dirt in there) along the channels where the trunk lid sits, get between where the spolier's panels are, and if possible, blow some compressed air along the seams, toward the rear bumper. This will get 90% of the water. The other 10% will still end up on your bumper. It's like the old saying: No matter how you shake or how you dance, the last drop always goes in your pants.
Oh, and Merry Robonichristmahanakwanza to you and yours as well.
