Post Your Unpacking Pictures

I didn't think it was available in the USA, but I could be wrong on that. I'm only going to use it on my M Roadster, which is a tiny convertible car. The roof and glass I clean with a 10" Montana Boars Hair Bush, so it shouldn't be too bad.

Its bizarrely soft though. It doesn't feel like any "wool" or sheepskin mitt I've ever felt.

The best way I can describe it as soft down feathers or the feeling of petting a very soft (and hairy) kitten. The mitt is softer than my adult cat.

Yeah the short hair isn't available in the usa, but can be ordered from the uk. I've been buying and trying out more uk stuff lately. I blame darren for this.

Umm, who is Darren? Where do you order from in the UK? I've ordered from Ultimate Finish in the UK once. Shipping was faster than most places in the USA. I think they use DHL. Stuff was well packed and arrived perfect.

If the Wookies Fist turns out to be too hairy, there is always the FURminator:

Nice books! Your going to love the Renny book and Mikes is just chalk full of good info as always!
 
Latest AG order, just a few necessities for the moment, MUCH more to come! Please excuse the horrible quality of my cell phone pic...
IMAG0070.jpg

Some BOGO items:
-BF Interior Cleaner
-BF Interior Protectant
-BF WD Polymer spray
-BF Midnight Sun Detailer spray (smells AMAZING, btw)
Non-BOGO:
-CG Blacklight. I've been curious about this for quite awhile, so I picked it up to try out and see where/if it will fit into my detailing routine.
-A new Meguiar's backing plate for my rotary, old one is about 10 yrs old and the velcro finally started to seperate, new one feels much nicer.
-Meguiar's compounding pad to replace one that had an unfortunate incident (I have many more, but I like keeping even numbers, and fresh pads are always nice:xyxthumbs:).

I just received an order with the BF Midnight Sun detail spray and I agree it smells and works very nice :xyxthumbs:

Yeah I figured I might as well get the other two books I didn't have so I could have the full collection , already had Art of detailing. Heard so many good things about rennys book, I already scanned through a little and all I can say is wow.
 
nice order, but I am glad I didn't "purposely" force myself to buy $125 to get a "free gift", if you can use it, great, but "TO ME" its trash and left over stuff they couldn't sell, I had a feeling it wasn't BF Black Ice like a couple mentioned, it didn't make sense for AG to give a new product that is expensive, for free. yes someone is going to mention don't complain and be happy its free yada yada, point is I didn't needed anything and was going to just make up a cart to "gamble" for a $50 free item or in this case items... 3 different times I did the "$50" free gift sales, I got stuff I had no need for, such as glass spray clay, griots plastic polish, lexol wipes, as far as I can tell they are crap that they couldn't sell and passing it off to bait sales (hence they don't mention WHAT it is) to have someone hope they are getting blackfire wax, which coincidentally is in the same sale annoucement. The tire gel is pretty good, but is the only thing I would be able to use if that was MY order, but you got a nice overall order...

and jeez you must be balllllin...$50 for a GALLON...ONE GALLON of.....GLASS CLEANER? I personally never saw a difference between stoners, megs glass clean concentrate (the grape smelling one), and diamondite glass cleaner...for $50 I would have bought 2 megs class cleaner concentrate gallons to make...22 GALLONS of glass cleaner, and still have $10 left over to buy a hamburger, fries, and a diet coke, because the diet coke cancels out eating a hamburger and french fries

but hope you like it and can see a difference between that and the cheaper glass cleaners to justify the difference. As with any wax, as long as it works best for you and YOU notice a difference, please shoot back any reviews how it compares to the cheaper stuff, the only stuff I can afford

Read the description of the product. It is not some cheap bulk glass cleaner, and its main purpose is to reinforce Opti-Glass protection. It can also serve as a cleaner and glass sealant in one product. I would have loved that gift.

I love me some Anti-Inseket as well! Works great, does not go far though!
 
I agree with Rock. Every bit of it.

Also a note about the Opti Clean & Protect, i bought the small bottle right when it was released. I notice no improvement on my windshield, and not to mention, it smears alot and takes more wipe to buff off completely.
 
Its sort of hard to complain its "cheap stuff" when it was 100% free, along with shipping. I'll take "cheap stuff" over "no stuff" - which is exactly what I see other retailers adding to my order.

If you bought extra stuff to get Black Ice, you could of just bought BI. Its only $50, the price of a couple of bottles and pads.

Or, they could have had no free shipping promo and no free stuff. Is that what you want?

I sounded more dissapointed than I am, just really would of liked to see something like BI in there. No complaints though for free. and everything I bought I needed so no biggie
 
I must be getting slow. This package sat in my mailbox for two days before I remembered I ordered it.

This is what a man uses to open a package:

Just what I need (like a hole in the head) more towels:

But these towels are "different". One side is blue and one side is grey (all the same towel):

They have silk banding. I use these for rinseless washes

They are 700 gsm:

But gsm describe the weight of the towel based on a certain area, its only a 2 dimensional description. As you can see, 605 gsm towels from the same vendor or slightly "fluffier" or less dense.

But, these new towels seem pretty nice. As nice as the green ones. The big benefit for me is the dual colors, as it may come in handy for rinse-less washes where you don't re-dip them in the bucket.

Putting them to sleep with some of the others:

I'm done buying towels for(now)ever.

Place is right down the street from my office, need to take a trip over there, great towels.
 
I like the 700s. use them for waterless washes. Need to get some of the green ones some day but they have been sold out. Got some of the red/grey 600s though and they are nice. I see AGO carries the 700s now too, at least they look the same.
