    Meguiar's Bottles from Autogeek

    personally, i've never seen a spray bottle that came with a cap. either a sprayer or nothing. more often than not it was just the bottle and if it came with a sprayer they were junk.

    tree sap

    alcohol has always worked for me, the stronger the better. if it's in big globs you could always use a razor blade (carefully) and take the majority of the top off. best of luck and keep it out from under those trees.:nomore:

    Sprayer Head, What's everybody using?

    Just curious as to what everyone's thoughts are. For a long time I've just used cheapies and pitch them when they break. Would spending the money on some chemical resistant sprayers be money well spent? I remember getting some when i worked at the dealership and they didn't hold up any better...

    Makita pooped out today - any ideas?!?!?

    I've had to fix my cord several times where it goes into the housing. Not a big deal and only takes a minute. From my experience it's caused by the cord twisting and bending.

    WOWA sealants on top of carnauba?

    Optimum Opti-Coating - Durability Test Review!!!

    i am also curious as to what the going rate is? would love to have a coating on the trailblazer but many of them seem hard to get, so i might just have to pay someone to do it, or forget about it.

    microfibers and a dryer sheet, oops

    can't tell you how many times that happened to me at work. the guy picking up towels to do laundry wouldnt pay attention and grab a piece of steel wool and then blammo, you got a bunch of towels that arent good for anything anymore.

    Tire cleaner?

    i like castrol's super clean. at 6 bucks a gallon i use it straight and haven't had any problems yet. megs apc+ is also in my arsenal and i will use that at 4:1 if the tires have been somewhat maintained.

    Not happy with Poor Boys EXP or Meguiars Synthetic Sealant No 21 sealant!!

    did you do an alcohol wipedown, or something similar between polishing and sealing? it's possible for leftover polishing oil's to affect a wax or sealant's ability to bond to your paint.
