    Griot's Garage Premium Carnauba Paste Wax

    I hear you on that one. When I was reading the catalog that brought back nightmares from the best of show wax for me. I threw away a nearly full bottle of that and then a couple years later someone tried to give me another for free and I ran screaming. But they don't say it will do that...

    Baking Soda to wash?

    I once used a baking soda paste to try to clean up some drinking glasses and totally ruined one it scratched it so badly.

    stress relief at work *disturbing*

    that gets my vote. A lot of things that sound like they'd reduce stress just bring it out and it feeds on the energy of the activity. Or watch a Bob Ross painting video :)

    Favorite Christmas Show

    Yeah, you have to get taken over by the good feeling of the ending to such a degree that you don't remember that Potter kept the money. While the credits role I generally go "Hey!". But then I remember that the theme of the movie isn't retribution and it is best to focus on the good in the world.

    Selective Parking

    That is the tricky thing to balance, finding an spot away from other cars that is still in clear view to people My Idea was to get some color matched or at least close aftermarket moldings and put a magnet stip on the back so I could put them on the car when needed. What shot that down was...

    I do sometimes. I have less separation anxiety with it covered.

    Selective Parking

    I used to look but then I wondered, what am I going to do sit there and wait for them to come out? And then what is to stop them from just saying "I didn't do that" Getting in their car and leaving?

    Selective Parking

    what I don't get is the magnetic feature that a nice shiny car seems to have in a parking lot. There will be 20 spaces in the row we are in that are closer to the store and I will be 5 spaces away from the nearest car and yet when we get back out someone will have parked right next to us...

    Favorite Christmas Show

    Scrooged with Bill Murray. A Christmas Carol with Patrick Stewart (sticks to the original story about the best of any) Disney's Prep and Landing is great (in a sea of new animated ones that suck)

    Google Crap

    for me in internet explorer it shows up just at the top of the screen. In Chrome it shows up like in the picture I attached.

    Google Crap

    you mean the stuff shown in this pictures? I'd say it is just google deciding that making money is more important than having what was once the cleanest, best page out there

    Best QD

    +1 on that. I also like the 303 quick detailer, it seems to make the color look richer.

    Blackfire polish, the forgotten glaze?

    I love their Deep Gloss Spray Sealant too. I bought a big jug it when it was 50% off. I didn't have the polish to start the process when I did our 10 year old Mazda but after finishing it up with the spray sealant a guy at work just went around the car the next day going "wow, it looks...

    Blackfire polish, the forgotten glaze?

    just got my bottle of blackfire gloss enhancing polish and I must say I'm impressed. The attached picture is after cleaning the truck with griots paint prep and then just an application of BFGEP. It gave it a real clean, wet look. I must say I'm impressed with BFWD and Midnight Sun too. I...

    Styrofoam peanuts

    but they are fun to save for when your coworkers leave their car windows down enough to pour them in

    1970 1/2 Camaro - Show Car Finish by Pinnacle - Modeled by Amy

    +1 on that. Her in Jeans, flip flops and t-shirt beat fishnet stockings. I know it's the Mary Ann vs Ginger thing but Mary Ann gets my vote. ( the younger readers are probably going, who? )

    applying wax "by hand"??

    I tried it for quite a few times with the Glasur and finally the last time I used a small applicator pad and for me at least it seemed to go on better, easier and faster and used way less product. By hand I'd end up with the wax working its way around to the sides of my fingers. I also found...
