After I wash down my rig and pull it into the garage before the sun drys the water spots into the paint...I fire up the leaf blower and give the whole exterior a good BLOW JOB!..Now I know I don't have water trapped behind things like the mirrors and the support arms, etc.

Cleaning behind and around the spare tire sucks.

on h3's.....
 
i hate when you clean the truck after mudding, and you open the rear doors to find that some how the fender throws mud up into the sills...
 
also, when you dry the truck, and days later, theres still dirt falling from the seals (that plastic where the roof rails are).... and dirt in the vents... i hate that!

Right under the rear door seals by the rocker panel/rear fender. ALWAYS dirt and mud trapped up there, and if you don't catch it it will run down the side when you start driving!

Getting cuts on my knuckles from some of those sharped edged areas. Water spots, I don't use a leaf blower, I use my air compressor with a 50' hose and a rubber tipped blast nozzle and blast every inch of my H3.
 
If you put any type of protecterant on your plastic, from that point on you will be re-applying it because those chemicals actualy dry out your plastic.

I would have to agree. The water dripping from the mirrors drives me insane. I have to carry a rag with me everywhere I go, and cleaning behind the spare tire oh my god. I'll just stop here.
