It reminds me - wasn't there a car polish called 'Raindance' ? The idea was it resisted water and sent the little droplets just skidded off.

Only trouble was every time you polished your car with Raindance - it rained....tee hee

You're not far off - it rained before it snowed.

Tell me about it!! I worked my ass off washing and waxing Mini this morning, and went on a drive to Glasgow as it was such a beautiful day-- lovely clear blue sky.

One hour later, half way down the M8, the temperature drops from +10 to -1 and we get caught in a HUGE snow blizzard. The car is absolutely FILTHY

Yeah, I picked up about 5-6 different stickers from the dealer when I got my MINI - thought they were the best two!
