    Cleaning around letters/badges...

    Case in point: The spaces between the letters narrows down to about 1mm on my ZX. ZRX had the same problem, but I removed the letters on that gastank. Not going to do that on the ZX as it's 27 years old & 100% original/stock... plus they're a royal PITA to put back on. Dental teeth...

    Possibly stupid pressure washer question....

    SunJoe SPX3001, comes with a 20 or 25ft 1/4in hose.... Obviously it needs upgrading to a 50ft hose... Any reason not to upgrade to a 3/8 hose?

    Confused about leather seats....

    2020 Explorer ST, seats are leather (black) & so are some door panels. Confusion arises because I read the leather is "painted" not dyed, this seals the leather so the usual leather cleaner/conditioner is a waste of time & it will just sit on the surface, so use regular interior plastic...

    Stubborn water spots on '20 Explorer ST

    Autogeek ad's on other websites...

    How do I turn them off & stop them completely? I'm a member of this forum, therefore I don't need to see them plastered all over just about every website I visit.

    Cheap MF's on clearance at AutoZone

    $18 for a bag of 200 12x12's, at that price I can use them for oil changes & blowing my nose. Marked down from $50+ 40 each of yellow, orange, green, blue & red. Actually went there for some CSS. Right next to them on the shelf was a 100ct pack of identical ones from the same company for $34.99...

    Anyone using MF's from Sams Club?

    ... or am I about to be run out of town on a rail for even asking? Just noticed they have a 24pk of 16x24in's. I have a bunch* of the blue/orange/yellow/green 16x16's & they appear to be a step up from the yellow ones sold at Costco *well I guess one pack of each color counts as "a bunch"

    Ragtop dusting?

    2011 Camaro, light brown rag top. Cleaned some bird poop off it last week with a damp microfiber. The color of the ragtop transferred to the MF. There's a few marks on it, looks like someone put something up there & dragged it a bit. Also it kinda changed the look where I removed the poop, but...

    Manfiter clay... isn't clay

    It's some form of blue plastic glue. Took a bit too much effort to get it out of the packaging, used it, didn't do anything. Put it back in the spiffy box it came in. Decided to try it again the next day, couldn't remove it from the box, literally could not separate it from the plastic box at...

    Bizarre crystals on car...

    Not sure whats going on, but the past two days there have been white crystals on the paint. Up to 2-3mm in size. Mostly on the deck lid. They look like sugar. There's a bunch of them trapped under the spoiler. They're kinda stuck to the paint when I run my hand over the deck lid No, I didn't...

    What do you put on a vehicle that never gets washed or rained on?

    Specifically this '99 Kawasaki ZRX1100 that has 120,000 miles on it. TBH, it has been washed with soap/water maybe three times over the past 22 years & has been ridden in the rain no more than four times (rain is kinda scarce in the Mojave).. so ability to bead water off isn't an consideration...

    FBI: Most Wanted... and Griots...

    Happened to glance at the TV at just the right moment & spotted a bottle of Griots *something* sitting on a bench at a location where they were interviewing a Janitor type guy.

    Is this a nornal feature of Glaze?

    Squirted a very small amount of Meg's #7 onto the top of my Kaw gastank... It hit the tank & promptly slide off the side onto the floor..:laughing: It left no trace behind on the gas tank at all...

    Wish I'd taken a pic of the Vette I saw today

    Black, maybe 2-3 years old. Parked at the local Carmax (Palmdale Ca). There wasn't a square inch on the entire car that didn't look like it had been buffed with a pan scourer. The windshield was so dirty on the inside that I looked through a side window to see if they had been a fire. ... & it...

    Benavvy 3in pads.... oh dear....

    They were cheap (first mistake), on Amazon (second mistake) Not sure how many came in the pack.... Used one, rinsed it in cold water (third mistake), discovered the glue used to attach the velcro to the foam is water based. Now I have a 3in foam puck & a 3in velcro disc. Maybe I can use them for...

    Progress on the SB Honda

    Living in the Mojave kills cars. This shitbox lives outside & there's a small window most days when it isn't too hot to work on it. Did the left third of the roof this evening... In the interest of being honest, this car cost precisely $1.00 & it's value varies with how much gas is in the tank.
