    I've never owned a large air compressor before

    I could buy a nice 30 gallon air compressor or maybe I can come up with the cash for a 60 or 80 gallon version of the same compressor. A bigger tank means I can push more CFM for longer which is great. But here's my question-- are there any downsides to a larger tank? One thing I'm concerned...

    Anything different about cleaning and protecting a farm tractor?

    I've been debating whether to ask this question because I think the answer is obvious, but I guess I will go through with it: cleaning and protecting a modern farm tractor should work about the same as an automobile, right? Our usual tools, chemicals, and techniques wouldn't be any different...

    Disinfecting auto interior

    I'm wondering which products might be suitable for disinfecting automotive interiors from bacteria and viruses like influenza. I think this is relevant when buying a used car or getting through flu season. The Centers for Disease Control publish a nice article on chemicals that are effective...

    Which chemicals most vulnerable to freezing temperatures?

    As I recall, HydrO2 and Bead Maker are especially vulnerable to freezing. I don't have space to store every chemical inside so I want to prioritize. I'm thinking some of them can spend the winter in the garage refrigerator at 40 degrees F instead of risking damage. What other chemicals are...

    What's going on with this leather seat?

    This is the backside of the front seat in a 2019 Ford truck. (Sorry for the crappy photo, tapatalk isn't working this morning!)

    Preparing the car for winter this year

    I'm trying to think ahead to how I will prepare my wife's car for the winter this year. Last year the paint hibernated under Powerlock+ which I have no complaints about and have plenty left in the bottle. This year I want to try something different. I'm wondering about Wolfgang, Pinnacle...

    Eldorado2K, checking on you...?

    You haven't posted much since your accident which is totally understandable, but I thought if you have a chance you could let us know that you are healing ok.

    Does Tar-X strip wax and sealant?

    I was cleaning some tree sap off my car yesterday with Tar-X and wondered if my work was also removing sealant. The web site says Tar-X is "also a strong cleaner" so I'm guessing it does have this effect. I'm wondering if anyone knows the answer for sure.

    What’s going on with my tint here?

    Cleaning my windows today and noticed these scuffs on both front windows. Sorry for the poor photo, couldn’t get it to focus on the window. I’m wondering if the tint here is ruined and if there’s something I could do to avoid it getting worse. Glass cleaner didn’t help it at all and it’s...

    Moderators - Rules question

    I've applied AG product to part of my car and I've applied non-AG product to a different part of the car and I want to start a thread about what I observe over time. The non-AG product is not available from any American retailers (at least that I can find, and I looked) so I imported it myself...

    The Mother-in-law problem

    My Mother-in-law will be making her annual visit in a couple weeks and I'm sure that, as usual, I will be upset by the condition of the paint on her car. While she is here I will take the time again to give it a decon and polish (because, how better to enjoy her visit than by being outside) but...

    Spray Sealant technique?

    I really enjoy using McKees SiO2 Blue or Hydro2 or some of the other spray-on / rinse-off sealants but I don't really understand the correct technique. I've watched a bunch of YouTube videos but haven't got my question answered, so here goes. They say not to use too much, maybe two squirts per...

    CR Spotless refill damaged in transit, again. Just me?

    Well I am 0 for 2 now in getting CR Spotless refill cartridges shipped in tact. I'm wondering if anyone else struggles with this? Maybe it's just my luck or my local Fedex or something, but last time the box was leaking resin beads everywhere and this time while it was "out for delivery" it...
