    Autogeek is AWESOME, but the peanuts

    I completely agree that the white polystyrene peanuts are bad. I too wish that AutoGeek would consider another alternative. If I had to pay more for shipping to get something more environmentally friendly, I would. Link: Polystyrene-foam Packaging Peanuts - ReliableAnswers.com "Those little...

    Florida Water Restrictions

    Over here in Sarasota we can only water our lawn on Saturdays. But, I get around that because I pull my water out of the creek that runs behind our property. I was given a ticket one morning from the water police, but I called him, explained the situation and he tore it up. Seems one of...

    Review: Shop-Vac®2.5G/2HP Vacuum

    You just beat me to posting a picture, Sparkie. I was going to use the same one. Anyway, that is a nice, inexpensive vacuum. I have one and use it alot because it's very easy to lug around. Not too loud either. Cleaning it is a breeze too. Just snap off the lid and empty in the trash...

    Wheel Cleaning Problem

    WoW! Those are some smokin' hot wheels. Nice... :applause: When you said that you coated the wheels I got to thinking.... If you have some more clearcoat, maybe you could put some on a test sample, (i.e. someone else's wheels), and see if your cleaner is having a reaction to your...

    Wheel Cleaning Problem

    redvalkyrie, By any chance are you washing your wheels when they are hot? Are you shaking the bottle of wheel cleaner before you apply it? Have you tried a new and different bottle of wheel cleaner? I guess I'm wondering if the DP Wheel Cleaner, (that's what I use), may have gone bad...

    Meguiar's is being SUED!

    Doood, Please I meant no disrespect to you. I have no doubt you heard what you heard, but anybody can call in to a radio talk show and say whatever they want to say. It doesn't mean it's true, doesn't mean it's false... S>

    Meguiar's is being SUED!

    Lifted Ford F-250 DETAILED! (Liquid Black!)

    Dood, that is just sick! I don't think I've ever seen such a crazy reflection in a paintjob. I've been coming to this forum for three months or so and I've never seen such pictures of a detail job. Your new customer has got to get some serious looks at a stop light. Very, very cool

    Detail Fest Date is set!

    A Detail Fest at the actual Mecca of car detailing? Now this is a real conundrum for me. Like I'm going to show up in an undetailed car??? More likely I'm going to find the place, drive by and then pull over to the side of the road and wipe off my rims with a MF and then go over the body with...

    How do you Northerner's wash take care of your cars in the winter???

    Surfer, I lived in Maine for 42 years and there are months at a time when the temperature never goes above 32 degrees. During those times I would take my car to one of those wash bays and put my quarters in for three minutes of washing off the salt. The soap thing never worked because it would...

    Klasse AIO on windows

    I use the DP Glass Cleaner first with a microfiber towel and then rub on AIO with a microfiber pad and then immediately remove with a MF towel. I'm pretty weird about my windows and this is the combination that I like best. I agree with the others regarding RainX. Although it is easy to...

    What's best for glass?

    I use a combination of products. I use DP Krystal Vison Glass Cleaner with a microfiber first. I might wash the windows a couple of time too just to make sure it's super clean. Then I rub on a coat of Klasse All-In-One and then remove it with a microfiber. The Klasse does a nice job of...

    Does anyone know how to remove lipstick from the sun visor ?

    Of course I'd like to hear how lipstick got on your sunvisor but.... Anyway, what is your sunvisor made of? Hard plastic? Vinyl? Cloth? I'd start with something easy like Lysol or Simple Green. If that doesn't work then try some Goof-Off. Paint thinner, acetone, MEK? That stuff will melt...

    baked on bugs?

    Since it wasn't my car I put the nylon brush right up against the car and blasted it! My steam cleaner shoots out a pretty good stream. I would say about 2 inches from the end of the brush is all steam with another two feet of water vapor comes out after that. (Remember, you can't see...

    baked on bugs?

    My directions said the same thing but my former neighbor up in Maine had one that he mixed in Lysol to clean his tile floor. That convinced me that it was alright. I guess if they didn't say "Don't put anything but water in the unit", some dummy would put gasoline in it and eventually make...
