I use a metal scraper for my cross country skis. Works rather well.. That, and lots of WD 40. But if I was going to sell them, I'd sell them as soon as they arrive.. I wonder how hard they are to make. Hmmm... ;-) Oh ya, I strip mine off every year. I use a metal scraper for my cross country skis. Works rather well.. That, and lots of WD 40.

At the end of the year perhaps? When selling it maybe? I guess not. If you had you would *know* how difficult it is. Justin,

I guess not. If you had you would *know* how difficult it is.

The best part about November, is you no longer have to move it! The irony of my car is that I only really use it to get to bike races and to go skiing. I've had it 3 years and it doesn't even have 50K on it.. I've also heard great things about CommunAuto. If someone uses it, it would be a Fab story idea.

Even with a sticker, it can be hard to find a spot if you get home after 7 at night. Good luck with that. Moving it twice a week from one side of the street to the other for the street cleaners or worse, clearing it after a storm in the winter to move it for the snow removers is a huge pain that I don't really want to deal with for the odd time that I would need the car to go to IKEA. If I wanted to walk three blocks to go get my car, I would join CommunAuto. On the other hand, the bus stop is only a block away!
