    Which electric pressure washer? There should be a sticky

    Here are a few pics while I have some time. Also, I bought mine at Costco, so no need to pay for an extended warranty [emoji3]

    Which electric pressure washer? There should be a sticky

    I think that was me. From what I can tell, it's basically a rebranded AR Blue clean (it has "AR" stamped on several parts) with some nice upgrades: metal connectors instead of plastic, proper gun with quick connects. I've only used it about a dozen times so far and I'm pretty happy with it. I...

    Which electric pressure washer? There should be a sticky

    I bought a PowerPlay PJW1800 from Costco. It seems well put together, has a quick connect wand and was cheaper than the SunJoe. Plus it's from Costco so I'll just return it if it ever breaks :) It's a Canadian Co but every component has an AR logo on it, so it's probably just a rebranded AR...

    wheel and tire storage

    No idea, it was quite a number of years ago. its likely that it had a leak and lost pressure over the summer. Only thing I can think of.

    wheel and tire storage

    Just four high. They were winter tires and stored in a garage that was super hot over the summer. The bottom tire was warped along the tread, second from the bottom was a little damaged but not nearly as bad. Other two were fine. It surprised me as well but it cost me enough money in...

    wheel and tire storage

    I've read that as long as they're on rims, it doesn't matter if you stack em or rack em. However, I lost a set of tires (on steel rims) that were stacked. In the summer heat, the winter rubber got soft and the two tires on the bottom of the stack got crushed. Since then, I store them upright on...

    Mold Remediation

    Have done a lot of mold inspections and surveys at work over the last 12 years. Personally i see cleaning as a last resort, typically if the replacement is costly or not possible. Starts are cheap so just remove it. Anything that is organic and/or porous needs to come out, that means anything...

    You know you're obsessed when

    Anytime i walk past a car that's hammered with swirls, apparently my reaction is obvious... my wife has started telling me"you're making that face again, you kind of want to clean that guys car, don't you ?"

    Is this hard or soft paint?

    I know some of the older Nissan's have a sticker under the the hood that says "hard clear". Not sure about the newer ones though. My wife's 2008 Versa has that sticker and it seems to be pretty hard to correct

    Shipping to canada

    Nice! Glad it's working out. Pkg Express charges a couple bucks ontop of USPS/Canada post. If you get hit, it's still cheap. The most I've ever paid was $8 plus GST on delivery, but its hit or miss as to whether Canada Post even charges you or not. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

    Shipping to canada

    Remember they do package forwarding, so it doesn't matter where you live. I use them for shipments to Calgary, but have some friend in Ontario that have used them as well. Just may have to wait a little longer if you're further away.

    Shipping to canada

    Sumas, WA. I've used them a couple times with no issues. It's a pretty sweet service. Haven't done it with detailing supplies, but have ordered a bunch of gear and used them (skis, bindings, packs, etc). The nice thing about USPS is you only get dinged with duty and tax every once in a while...

    Shipping to canada

    Another good option for getting stuff shipped from the US is Package Express. They charge a couple bucks to forward your package plus the USPS cost. Good option if the supplier ships ups/fedex (avoid big brokerage fees) or not to Canada.

    Yup, I had an 02 Si and in Canada, the Si used to be the 'top' trim model for the 2 dr coupe with all the bells and whistles. There was an SiR hatch, which was replaced. Nice work! brings back memories of my old civic. Best car I ever owned, 12 yrs and 260000 trouble free km
