Wash it anyway man, you won't have to worry about the shampoo drying into the paint and you won't have to dry it afterwards

The collection tunnel in ours usually clogs up when you cut wet or damp grass. I can't get it high enough to get underneath where the blades are to clean all the crap out. This is causing most of the clogging as the grass is catching here and that's where the clog starts.

The best thing about the one I have is there is no collection tunnel, it just blows it out behind! They used brushes to pick up the grass but these are well gone off mine

Halfrauds stock it, its a woeful price if your not getting it 2 for 1. Its €60

In saying that my cousin is on the same tub of it since around 2006 and its still going strong!

I just washed the car, half tempted to get the DA at it but im just not arsed ha
