Post Your Unpacking Pictures

Yeah updates would be great!

I initially had a few sprays of the Oberk squash on it and didn't really smell it in the front seat. Took it out, saturated it and put in back on the rear driver's side door. I smelled it for the first day but not much after that. Gonna try moving it to the mirror for a week. Not where I want to put it but this will be for testing purposes. It could need something more concentrated.
 
Well...well. I thought the Stoner product was going to be pretty similar to the M37 Foaming Wheel Cleaner Gel, which I find to be quite good, at least in comparison to the Griot's Heavy Duty I was doing a side-by-side with. Maybe they are not so similar, or maybe the Koch Chemie product (which I've never used) is just much better than either.

Yeah I was let down too. I hear great things about tarminator and I have yet to find a glass cleaner significantly better then theirs including ones 2-4 times the price.

Was happy to get this today to mount on the garage ceiling.

I went to one of our Auto chain stores for their Boxing Day sale, 26% off everything in store, why that percentage, because their biggest competitor is having a 25% off sale. I didn't really need anything, but I knew a bulk pack of general purpose MFs would be handy.

I spent a bit of time checking out all the different tyre dressings, almost every one of them was a "new extra shine" formula. So that's a big nope from me. I really just like a clean natural rubber look.

I spent some time talking to 2 of the staff about the benefits of using a drying aid, the young guy still likes his chamois, the girl was trying to convince him to try Bowden's After Glow with a Big Softie drying cloth, he wasn't convinced, so I showed him the different twisted loop drying towels they sell, he was a little more open to that option. It was a little strange selling them on their own products, but both very friendly about it all.

I ended up only getting the MFs, 3 different colours, blue, orange, and white. Never really used white MFs before, I guess they'll show contaminants easily.

Not detail related but car related. Been wanting the Dewalt inflator to keep in my trunk. Like that it’s battery powered but has a cig lighter adapter for back up.

No spare in either car so it’s fix a flat and fill up.

Normally was $130’ish but AcmeTools had a sale where you buy the battery kit for $170 and got the inflator for free…

That Dewalt has grown on me. It is maybe a little slow but gets right to the set pressure without having to set it 1-2 psi higher than target. Half-psi increments are nice too. I do put mine on its back with the display facing up when I use it. It doesn't move around in that position. I had my battery die once and thought it had just stopped because it reached the set pressure.

Yeah I was set to get the Milwaukee for its impressive speed but didn’t like that it didn’t have a cig light adapter. Keeping it in trunk as neither car has spare want to make sure it’ll work when I need it.

3.5 mins extra is worth it

In 35 years of driving, I've only needed an actual spare twice, but I was glad they were there when needed. I do carry a small compressor, it has a long cable and battery clamps, but I usually just use my Ryobi 18v unit for convenience. I don't think I could buy a car that doesn't come with a spare.

Just saw this online, seems appropriate here.

I was sitting outside one of our Auto chain stores having some lunch, I noticed they had a sale on, actually when do they not have a sale on, everything is Super Cheap, so I thought I'd wander in and see what's discounted. Both these items were 25% off, the MFs I've got a couple already, but I really like them so why not get another couple, the applicator felt good in my hand, it has a big foam handle on top, but I'm not sure what I'll apply with it.

On a side note, you know it's mid-summer in Australia when more than half the customers leaving the Auto stores come out with windscreen sun visors and steering wheel covers. 6 or 7 customers that left while I was eating my lunch, and 4 of them had sun visors, and 3 of those also had steering wheel covers.

Got the Monkey gas and JDM squash stinky be gone. The Monkey gas has a tree vanillaroma smell

Pineapple, and bananas… like it a lot. The JDM squash is true to the old air Spencer’s squash scent. Delicious.

Lucky enough they had a couple random Griots pucks so gonna try them out…

Is it more concentrated than the Oberk?

I smelled it all day whenever I got in and out of the car. Only 4 sprays on the wafer initial reaction is it’s about same. I’m guessing all are sprayables are.

Supposedly these neutralize odors as well.

I haven’t found anything concentrated enough.

Platinum potions get good reviews. May try them next for a spray.

I’ll be trying bio bombs as well as EC details said there good and the last.

Note: I got a pretty bad sense of smell…
