Using windshield washers is illegal in my house. Punishable by death. Laws in my home require that any washer system be disabled or completely removed before the vehicle is allowed. But seriously....THE MOST ANNOYING F$&@ING THING ON THE PLANET is being behind someone in my clean car and...

I thought we had a classified section around here?

Hey Mike, I know you're a busy man (and I never thanked you for the time to compile all this)...but did you ever do this article?

This has been my toughest hangup with going coating. Trying to imagine not waxing or not using the products I have, or not trying different things. Tough decision. Is there a support group for this?

So when using your favorite brand of coating, I've noticed almost all of them make some type of coating boost, QD, or something specifically designed for their coatings. During normal care after the car is all coated, what do you do for maintenance and normal detailing? Do you stick with the...

Do you guys use your favorite coating (paint or wheel; but I'd think wheel due to hardness) on stainless steel exhaust tips? I've got gorgeous tips on all my vehicles. One of them is a turbo, so it generates LOTS of black stuff and pipes are oriented where it's very visible (straight out the...

No problems with Snap-On warranty here. I've called and had a couple very old items replaced no questions asked. Sent me a ratchet rebuild kit and a brand new screw driver that I broke the tip off. Just call them from the website. Obviously they have to mail it, but still hassle free. They...

This one... 72 in. 18 Drawer Glossy Red Industrial Roller Cabinet I actually got to see it in store, thus what prompted me to ask about them. I was impressed. Initial impression was its built better than my craftsman.

Dude...just got done looking at a huge tool box at Harbor Freight. Typically their stuff doesn't hold up and I'm skeptical of getting tools and stuff from there, but I gotta say, I was impressed. I'm a Snap-On / Mac kinda guy, but this was descent. I mean even from a perspective that it...

So my post wasn't so much about which is best for the scenarios you guys mentioned as it was trying to figure how much light I need to fill the garage. Using my 500 watt halogen light as s baseline, if I'm going to go LED, what kind of number should I be looking at to fill the same space with...

So my halogen standing shop light finally died. The light socked deteriorated away. So now I'm trying to compare LED to Halogen and see which way I want to go. I had a 500 watt Halogen and it did a good job, but can you really have too much light? So how does this compare to LED? What...

So for doing a rinseless wash, what's your procedure....wipe down the panel with the rinseless wash, spray on your preferred drying aid, then dry? All one panel/section at a time?

Love this stuff. Great drying aid that adds a bit of pop (for lack of a better description) to a good finished surface. I think spray waxes like this are not intended to be a LSP or your only layer of paint protection, but are to add an extra layer of defense to your LSP. While 156 adds a bit...

well after much debate, I went ahead and decided to condition the interior surfaces. Thanks to the discussions in this thread, my interior just does not seem to have any coating or sealant on the leather. I know this seems unlikely on a brand new modern vehicle, but it just didn't. Water did...

Yes...VERY overlooked and underestimated product IMO. I currently playing around with a different brand (that I can't mention around these parts;-) because I received a bottle, but otherwise, Mother's is and has been the only QD in my cabinet for years.
