Review - The Belt




So the Lord of the Polishers stiles again and helped me out with an amazing gift, The Belt, but it's not just any belt it's oozing with Awesomeness​.

This belt has been blessed by the autographs of some of the best people in the automotive world!!

I've been wanting to try this bad boy out for a while and each time I was on an episode of competition ready I was hoping we would get to use it but unfortunately we never did. So when Mike Phillips was nice enough to help me get mine I of course told him I'd tell the world what I thought of it. So here's what I think... It's NOT amazing... Wait what.. well here's the story

The belt is a great asset BUT only in the right situations. I wore it for every detail Job I've had for probably the last month or so. From maintenance washes to paint corrections​. Now for basic washes it's not the best thing in the world and I really only used one pocket and it wasn't even a pocket I kinda just slung my 16x16 pfm over a pocket while I washed each panel until I needed it.

Now paint correction, that's where this bad boy shines, at least for me. I still didn't use all the pockets but this time i used drum roll please...

2 of them, that's right 2

So I use the left pocket for my scan grip pen light and for my wipe off towel, then I use my right pocket for my cleaning brush and my polish. So it keeps me going and don't have to go back and grab it from somewhere else it's right there with me and I love it.

So it's hit or miss depending on you and how you use it. I know some people have carts and if you do this might not be for you. Some people also have work stools and might not find the belt useful​ but for me I like being able to reach at my side then between or around my leg for a product. So even when I use my stool I still use the belt

So there you have it the review for the best sometimes but not all the time The Belt helper. I would buy it again if those one ever wore out and I needed to replace it but again that's because for me it's awesome for paint correction jobs and how I set myself up for them.

Thanks again​ Mike, team AG and all the awesome people who signed it.

Nice! Thanks for the review, been trying to decide if I want to try these out or stick with my apron.
 
+1. I'm always reaching for my Belt too. Great tool!
 
I have found my belt to be valuable when cleaning interiors. I keep my brushes, vac attachments, flash lights and towels in my belt pockets. I dont use it for washes because I worry about scratching and dont really use it for paint correction because I usually have a cart set up beside me. I love mine, I use it on every interior detail I do.
 
I have 3. I ordered one. Then I ordered 2 Mystery Boxes. And got 2 of The Belt :confused:
 
Nice, that works out because you can't order the pockets the size of the one that says "the belt" and that is one I wish I had another one or 2 of

Nice review Freddie!


As I asked each TV Celebrity to sign your Belt they all asked me what it was and after showing and explaining it they all thought it was a pretty cool idea.


I'll make your pictures show up like this when I get some time tomorrow...

Great review. Thank you for sharing. I have been using the Flex branded belt since last summer. It is useful when working on engine bays because it holds a ton of brushes. I am thankful for the belt every time I work on a ladder too. :)

On every single detail job I wear a Meguiar's apron at some point and I can't imagine getting on without it.
