I just did a search and didn't see anything posted on this yet. I just got this e-mail from eShine on Friday: "Riccardo Clay has been a favorite of most for many years. It is our best selling claybar and our best performing. Until now due to patent issues we were not able to sell this...

Eastwood has a one day sale on the WonderWinder Electrical Cord Organizer: Eastwood Co. - WonderWinder Electrical Cord Organizer This is something that I put on my Christmas list last year, has worked out very well, and is one of those things that I would definitely buy again. It makes my...

Leo is having a 30% off labor Day sale at DF Concours now through Sept. 7. Don't forget your discount code of Autopia for an additional 5% off. Might be a good time to stock up on some towels or other goodies that he offers.

I'm trying to fabricate a simple fiberglass piece for under the hood of my street rod and am having some problems. My main hassle is with the resin. It either gets hard way too fast or starts to get gelled (lumpy) and impossible to work with. I've yet to get more than 10 minutes of decent...

When I first used Z-CS I had some problems with water seeping out of little nooks and crannies that would cause my applicator pad to get wet. Yeah, I've got a dedicated leaf blower, but I don't really care to drag that thing out. I also have an air compressor and a couple of shop vacs but in...

I wandered through the automotive section at Wal-Mart this evening and saw both the Mother's Power Ball and the Power-Ball Mini for $18.72 each. I already have the regular Power Ball but I thought that looked like the best price I've seen so I picked up a mini.

About a month or two back Autopia sponsor Danase started selling the Tornador. You really need to click on that link and watch the short video to get a basic idea of what it is and how it works. When I first saw that little video clip I was fascinated by this tool and started thinking of uses...

I was out getting some cheap tools for my nephew (I'll get him Craftsman when he's old enough not to loose them) and I spotted the Harbor Freight 92623 rotary on sale for $19.99. Since I rarely use a rotary, and my older style Harbor Freight has served me well, I couldn't pass this one up for...

I have had this idea for quite some time but today I was finally bored enough to try it. I bought some Collinite #885 because it is the same formula as the 476, but in a different (smaller diameter tin). Although you get more wax in the 885 tin than you do the tin of 476, the smaller diameter...

Today was my first date with Zaino. I finally took the plunge a couple of months back because I wanted to be able to apply more than one coat of sealant at a time on a couple of our daily drivers. I decided to do the wife-mobile, a dark blue Caravan, and get it ready for winter. I got a...
