I've thought of doing this, but the problem is two-fold for me. First thing, I live in an apartment complex, I'm not quite sure how they would feel about me filling the parking lot with we sudsy water. Secondly, I live in GA, and juuuust north of the city. If anyone has ever been about 10 miles north of Atlanta, you know that the weather is IMPOSSIBLE to predict, so if it starts raining, chances are it will stop just about the time I get the sponge wet for the first wipe at the car and then I'll just have a sudsy car. Thunderstorms seem to either miss my location by about 5 miles to the north or they literally just appear out of thin air right above my head, you can never tell.
