THIS TIME OF YEAR, vehicles in Minnesota can get mighty filthy. Road spray films windows with grime. Mud kicks onto fenders.
And the graffiti artist sees opportunity on a mobile canvas.

Yes – I’ve been working overtime to keep my windows clean lately.
A must for a photographer, right? I understand. Totally.
Yes. Indeed
And better than bumper stickers…These will wash off (eventually)
These impromptu messages on windows simply make me smile.
We have the pollen on ours right now. A lovely yellow greenish hue. 🙂
That would be gross. Is it sticky?
No-just powdery.
Whew.
Although I do have pine sap on my car that I am working on getting off. The downside of living in a forest. 🙂
Now that would be a challenge. I’ve gotten pine sap on my hands from a Christmas tree and I know how difficult that is to remove.
I have been using Goo Gone and it works pretty well .
Excellent.
Like you dont already know….right????
Good point.
Why is it there’s this irresistible urge to take your finger and write something on a dirty window? I suppose it’s the kid in all of us!
You are probably right.
Lots of green pollen right now, sap and bird doo – not a great combination – then mix in the coastal fog with lots of salt in it! Ugh . . .
Happy Weekend – Enjoy 🙂
And that equals one dirty vehicle.
So needs a bath – ha!
Well, maybe if someone writes on the window…
Ah, the ever popular and unoriginal “wash me.” Maybe someone should bring back “Kilgore was here.”
Our red car was a candidate for mobile graffiti after a snowfall last week. It was white with salt. Fortunately rain washed the grime away Sunday morning.
