BHPian Old Dude recently shared this with other enthusiasts: The Magic Wand Quoting my better half for 28 years, my ” first wife is the Kodiaq, Second wife is the Civic” and she’s been relegated to third place – which is (ever so slight) an exaggeration I’d say. But I m confused if it’s ethical stealing from my wife for my car, I’ll let my fellow Team BhPians judge if her allegation is justified. While I love every bit of my Kodiaq, and try to keep her shiny and new every day with lot of TLC, there ware some bits of design that make this especially strenuous. Kodiaq owners know what him taking about – 1) The black honeycomb pattern below the tailgate, above the rear bumper. 2) The black honeycomb pattern on the front bumper. 3) The small recess below the rear windshield on the tailgate ( which is the first space to gather dust because of the way aerodynamics work) 4) The embossed lettering for Skoda, Kodiaq, L&K, 4×4 5) The small gap between the window glass and the door gaskets on the outside. 6) The small recess above the front windshield and roof. In short, every small nook and corner where the Jopasu duster won’t reach. One day, I got a bright idea and rummaged through my ( third ) wife’s makeup kit and voila – found a bunch of super soft bristled makeup brushes of various size and shape. Swearing to myself I’ll return before she notices them missing, I stealthily borrowed them to try on my Kodiaq – that’s when the realization that this brush was truly a magic wand – effortlessly clearing the dust from all crevices without causing any lswirl marks on the paint! I have now incorporated this into my daily routine for past many months and two minutes of going around the car using the makeup brush on all crevices before the Jopasu round makes the whole cleaning experience a lot more satisfying for me. Maybe it’s economy of scale or confirming my suspicion that men love their cars more than their ladies, I found the makeup brushes are also priced lower than similar brushes specified for car care. That reminds me I still have to order new makeup brush kits for my car so that I can slip in the old ones back in the makeup kit and hope my wife won’t notice.
