First step dude is admitting it. I look at it this way, the way I feel after I spend the day with my car(s) is almost like no other. If I went to a therapist it would cost much more. Detailing my ride is all the therapy I need and I'm saving money.
There are days when work was a pain in the ass, I go into the garage downstairs and start detailing the car. It's a great stress reliever.
Only thing I hate since my garage at home is in a office building across the street, is when I am detailing the Jeep someone asks me do you detail cars? I say no I'm cleaning my car.
Or the best one, is the parking lot full? Excuse me Sir am I wearing a white shirt with a ****ing bowtie? Does it look like I work here? ///rant lol
I find detailing a way to just unwind and relax. In fact after it blew like a banshee here yesterday, just did a complete exterior detail, before the next high wind event tomorrow (not driving the Jeep!).
You're totally on target - it's "simply irresistable"
I know this is old, but I'm with Knox...especially, I park so I can see her pulling up and I check out the car the whole way. If we go out and it's raining, when we get where we are going, i get out and walk around in the rain to look at the water bead up, she's like, let's go, i'm getting WET!(and not in a good way). My neighbors always make fun of me, just a regular washing takes hours, I always find something to wax, mist with some detailer, even if it's under the hood, around door edges. Hey, it helps keep everything clean and I don't always have to spend 10hrs doing a full detail...except I always have to buy the next "best thing ever" product to try, strip off all the old, and put on the new. Wifey says, whatever, it's your thing. She does though say she likes parking next to the executives she works with at G###year, and having the best looking car, and her friends say they wish their husbands were like me...she tells them, if you only knew, he has issues.
