Always have a can of "OFF" within reach. I was washing my car today, and I was just a buffet for insects.
 
I agree. I always put some on before washing my car. Plus I go and take a shower afterwards anyways from getting sweaty, so all it gets washed off.
 
Off is a must for us mobile detailers. Well I can't say all but I do a lot of vehicles that are in the country an certain times of the year. There so bad you think their going to fly off with you.
 
There's new "Off" clips, where you hook it around your belt or waist, anyway we used them when camping a few weeks back and they were great, maybe you guys can try that and not have to spray yourselves down....

Oh yeah, I've seen those clipped on to some of my nephews a couple of weeks ago. I have to give it a try, and clip them where they won't rub against my car.

ha, not to be to gross, but i was hiking with one on, and when climbing to stop from hitting my hip, i put it near my butt crack...around the back! :xyxthumbs: no joke seems that'd be a fine spot for it when detailing a car!

Haha, I was actually thinking about placing it around that area. I think I'm going to need 2 of those clips, I seem to be a magnet for insects.
 
Because of the mild winter, there are a lot more mosquitos this year. There have also been a lot of cases of West Nile Virus, a few resulting in meningitis. Be sure to use some form of protection. DEET is the most effective repellant available.

Sort of like covering your butt huh? :laughing:
 
Damn mosquitoes love me. I tried the clip on repellant and still got bit.

I had one on the back of my collar and another on the back of my belt. Since most of the bites were on my forearms I probably should have put two on my sleeves.

I'll just go back to OFF! and slather it all over my arms, face, and neck. It always works.
 
Off active ingredient melts plastic, just spray some on a plastic bag and see what happens. If you spray your hands and touch anything, it may melt/remove finish. For example, Off on my leg took the finish off my coffee table. Just be careful with a clients car.

The off belt clips things work well, no chemicals to worry about.
