Don't do this on your plane.....

I thought it would be cool to wash my car in the winter with warm / hot
water in a bucket, and while I had nice and comfortable hands when washing,
come time when the car cooled down to freezing, the paint crazed from the
expansion from warm water, and contracted from the cold weather which
caused the crazing.


Your going flying which removes the liquid stuff, same way I did to
unfreeze my car in a Colorado 22 incher. You go drive, don't let it sit
there and refreeze, duh...
