    Gyeon tire????

    Gyeon Tire is not going to provide a super glossy look, but its not really matte either. I just finished up my first bottle and rather like the product, especially after going back to another popular brand. What I found is the "tire coating" actually appears to sink into the actual tire...

    Master Blaster Hose extension - alternative brands?

    I saw the 30 foot crush resistant tubing at DF2017 and its a rather nice piece covered in a plastic high gloss coating. It appeared almost rubberized. That said, how much pressure would be lost when using a tube that's 3x's the length of the original ?? Part of the enamor of the MB is the...

    $6,000 reasons not to use a automatic car wash

    I would never suggest those old style spinning car washes ... I have shared here (in the past) the story about kids in Key West tying bolts to the nylon strings so that they slap against a car while being cleaned. All sorts of damage "could" happen, its best to wait until you can wash yourself.

    Review: Gyeon Bathe+

    I like this soap ... no residue, beads like crazy after use, and appears to boost coating(s) and bring back gloss.

    Going to give coatings another try...just bought the WG kit

    I think you made a great choice... the Wolfgang Uber coating is quite durable, very glossy, and super easy to apply and remove. If you properly prep the paint and have a blank canvas, you should note a big difference. I applied thin and sparingly and had my son buff off any excess. My son is...

    A place to trade products?

    There is no reselling on site .... trading should be limited, the samples post was about sharing a product with another friend to give them the opportunity to try something and hopefully a purchase from Autogeek if they find it to their liking. There are no auctions to my knowledge ... you...

    Wax for Exhaust Pipes?

    Sealant or Coating ... don't use a traditional wax. If you use Flitz Metal Polish it has some protection build in as another choice.

    Which Tires????

    I have found a lot of value in the Toyo brand, I consider them a Japanese Michelin. I am not particularly found of Goodyear Tires, they just never seemed to hold up and handle like others. Michelin are very good but have firm pricing models and highest pricing overall, but handle very well...
