Default Cleaning car with british weather

Well got up this morning and thought i would give my car a good polish up as it hasn't been done for a bit so went out and bought some meguiars cleaning products. Weather was still looking fine when i got back at lunch so started cleaning at about 12.30 finished at 6 so after 5.5 hours cleaning i step back and admire my work car was shining like never seen before then 5 mins later it starts p*****g down. god damn british weather think i will check the forecasts from now on lol.

We have a california experience car was down the road, I take my daily driver there and its never scratched my car and does an amazing job! It even has an underbody clean with rust inhibitor and a auto wax and polish... Car looks like new after..
