I have used something similar to this for the last 20 years.
It is a few inches taller than the Screwfix step stool and in the case of our beloved Macans, size matters

I use a work platform. The one I have is about knee height which is perfect.alxgb wrote: βMon Apr 23, 2018 6:32 am Hi All
Serious question and I expect some mocking for this but for those of you who clean your own cars, how do you get to those hard to reach areas on the roof? I have extension pieces on my pressure washer so that's not an issue but it's hand washing with a mitt that is a bit of a pain. I'm 6' and I find that working toward the middle of the roof is quite difficult and I keep missing bits, which I only find when I've blow dried the car so fortunately, not swirled the roof using that approach but I don't want to have to go back and clean again if I can get it first time.
Thinking about getting a folding stool from Screwfix as a solution but thought I'd see if anyone had some clever idea in use already.
I could use a ladder but the risk of it sliding or moving on a gravel driveway and scratching the car doesn't appeal.
Thanks

The step is actually to help me launch on to the roof and allow me to slide across the roof and down the bonnet on my stomach. With better technique, I feel I can dry 70% of the car in a single movement.
If thats how you clean and dry the paintwork the mind boggles over what you do to the exhaust!
