I believe the general logic with a fabric softener solution is that it releases the static charge between the hair and carpet, thus making it easier to vacuum. I use a homemade FS solution when dealing with really bad hair. It helps but I wouldn't say its game changing. FWIW, I use the solution...

This is kind of what I was hoping to hear. I looked into replacing the resin and it gave me enough pause to miss out. However, my driveway faces west so I am often battling water spots. The idea of just letting my cars drip dry is quite attractive!

I passed up a ridiculously low priced CR Spotless system on Marketplace this week. I saw it for sale and knew others use them but I have never looked into DI so I missed it. Of course, now I am obsessed with getting a DI system. Other than CR Spotless which is out of my budget, does anyone have...

Great synopsis. The detail industry (especially the enthusiast side) has changed a lot over the years.

I exclusively wash with rinseless. Here are my thoughts... I am in WI and in the summer I prerinse with rinseless, pressure wash then contact wash with a sponge and rinseless. (one bucket) In the winter, generally I dont "wash" my vehicles unless it is about 40 degrees or so. When it is under...

I know. I know. It is against the rules. However, I figured since the forum is no longer monitored, we should start a for sale thread. All transactions are at your own risk. List what you have with pics, prices and how you want to handle shipping and payment. Probably best to DM to finalize the...

Hey! Just wanted to circle back on this. I wound up finding a used one on FB MP for $80 plus a little shipping. Other used ones were going for around $200 so I jumped on it. It was pretty rough upon arrival and OOOOLD! It appears to be an "orig" without the speed dial, etc.. Anyway, I cleaned it...

Great info! I going to look for a used one!!

I am not a noob by any means. But still, I find myself semi-paralyzed by indecision. I just took delivery of a 2022 BMW X4 M40i in sapphire black metallic. This is my first black vehicle in about 20 years and also the first since I've started taking the condition of my paint, or should I say, my...

I guess D143 might be the answer. Anyone have experience with both? What dilution ratio do you use assuming regularly maintained wheels and tires?

Couple weeks ago I went down a rabbit hole of what ever happened to Whestly's. Turns out it is now owned by Black Magic and their formula doesnt work as well as the original. Many vids on YT recommended Meg's Hot Rims Tire and Wheel as a replacement that closely mimics the old Whestley's...

Looking for any advice for attending the Barrett Jackson Auction in Scottsdale this Jan 2022. I've never been to the auction nor Scottsdale so any tips are welcome. It looks like I will be flying down purely as a solo spectator. Not looking for swanky accommodations, but I don't want to stay in...

I was cleaning out my collection and came across this gem. Has to be at least 15 years old, maybe more. Got me to wondering what other vintage AG ONLY products members have. Post your pics!

I'd like to trade a $100 gift card for a Griots G9. PM if interested. (I'll just purchase the gift card and put you as the recipient) (Ship to 54915)

There is a trick to repair that damage with a heat gun. Just search youtube and youll find it. Results vary but for minor damage, this should help!
