Yep, I'm a dumbass.
Yesterday i washed my car in freezing weather and I kept washing it even though ice formed as soon as I squirted the water on the car. This morning, I go to leave for school, and then put it in reverse. Nothing. I was like hmm, parking brake? Then I look and its off. Now I give it a lot of gas, get it up to like 2500 rpms while releasing the clutch. I hear a loud crack. I was like wtf. I get out of the car and see nothing. I get back in and then try to back out more. Now I'm going really slow backwards and I'm pissed. Then I realise it. MY ****ING BRAKES WERE FROZEN   |

personally I just use the high pressure quarter wash, it may strip the clear coat over time, but to me it save's time and is a hell of a lot more effective than those gas station car washes. The fact that it strips clear coat doswen't bother me, I just wax it regularly(or have someone wax it for me)
