    low vibration random orbital suggestions

    The Festool RO 150 FEQ from everything I've read and researched is an incredible machine. The ETS 150 from what I can tell wouldn't be a consideration for a polisher. It has the 3/16" stoke but has no rotary motion. The motor is also far superior in the RO150FEQ nearly tripling the amps of...

    cleaning my microfiber towels

    My grunge towels used to have quite a lot of stains. When I start using them to dry off tires, wheels and wells with ONR they went to a whole new level of staining. I have around 150 in rotation. I've considered dyeing the ones I use on tires, wheels, wells and jambs black.

    Cheap alternatice for Clay Lubircant?

    As many are claying when they wash you can just fill your bottles with a similar strength soap mix. I've always used a lot of lube when I clayed so speciality lube was too expensive. For years I used a soapy water mix with no problems. I use rinseless washes now so that is what I use for...

    boars hair brush

    I recently purchased one of the boars hair wash brushes from AG. I had wanted to try one for several years never would spend the money. I clean with ONR and have mixed feelings about the brush. Since it doesn't hold onto much if any dirt when using with ONR it leave more dirt on the car. I...

    How to Clean Carpet Mats

    I edited my post and hopefully clarified a few things. Pressure washing and PC high speed scrubbing with a stiff brush is overkill for many carpets in my opinion. I base my opinion on my experience using the same methods and tools. The mat as shown in the first photo has some dirt but the...

    How to Clean Carpet Mats

    I use the PC brushes and have pressure washed mats before. While it has it's place, some caution needs to be used. Judging from the pictures the mat was mainly dirty on the one side and in the picture near the end where it is being vacuumed the dirt is gone and carpet is clean. The color of...

    something about pricing that pisses me off.

    I suspect there are consumers that still think they are getting it cheaper. The $1.99 item is only $1 in the head of some. Same people buy something on ebay for $5.99 and tell you what a deal they got only paying $5.99. Never mentioning the $9.99 shipping. Even the smartest people with math have...

    FOAM GUN!!!!!WOWWWWWWWWWWW..picsss

    I have a few questions about the pressure washer foam guns. I admit I'm using ONR and don't have any plans to change. I like being able to clean the car without moving it. My questions are 1) The foam is impressive but what is the estimated final dillution on the car? It seems that it would...

    Took my car to the dealer, i am worried.

    Funny how so many of us thought the same thing on the Peter Pan thing. I gather the dealer didn't feel that way when they picked the name. Could be worse you could be the "Cum Park Grille" in Burlington NC conveinently located in "Cum Park Plaza". I was traveling through there a while back...

    Done with Edge!

    I must admitt that when I have read problems in the past with the Edge system it kept me from trying them out. I still wanted to try them out and placed my order last night. The problems seem to be few and far between. I would assume there are similar problems with velcro systems. I've not...

    Anybody used this green bristled tire brush?

    I have used those brushes for years and for wheels that are not cleaned very often they work well. I feel they are too hard for regular wheel cleaning though. As the flogged tips start to degrade the brush gets increasingly more aggressive. Once one bristle goes bad it can start to cause...

    Autogeek is AWESOME, but the peanuts

    I love when I get packages from AG with whatever peanuts they have as I reuse them. The starch peanuts are good for the enviroment but I would assume if a large business isn't using them cost may be a factor. The air pillows are nice. The machines to make them start at $2000. I ship...
