    McCulloch 1375 Steamer Developing Dark Debri/Scale in Pressure Tank

    So, I`ve used this steamer less than ten times and have drained it after every use. I have used non-distilled water in the steamer. Two months ago, I noticed scaling, so I poured vinegar in the tank, let it sit overnight, let it heat-up, then drained it. I was amazed how much gunk came out...

    Flex XFE7 Noise

    This thread is to discuss what the Flex XFE7 sounds like when free spinning with no pad in the air (air spinning). When I air spin my XFE7, there is a noise that I hear and want to know if it`s normal, or not. I would like to record the sound and post it, but I am going to try to see if the...

    I Tried FLitz Instant Calcium, Rust, & Lime Remover For Wheel Cleaning

    I scored some cast aluminum, painted & clear coated wheels for the winter time off of a Town & Country that were heavily corroded (I don`t see wheels this bad too often) with brake dust. Strong, potent wheel cleaners, color-changing wheel cleaners had a hard time with the mess, so I turned to...

    MyTee Spray Nozzle

    My brand new Mytee spray nozzle only sprays a 1 inch spray path but the wand is 3 inches wide. I checked the tip, it looks clean. I poked it and cleaned it and it stayed the same. I`m hoping someone here has run into this problem and came-up with a solution. Anybody have any suggestions besides...

    Do Stiffer Pads Correct Better?

    I saw a video where Renny Doyle stated something to the fact that the Rupes could leave the surface better polished than a Flex if one really knew how to use the Rupes. Here`s a quote from Michael Stoops: "The softer and more compressible the backing plate, the less ability it has to transfer...

    Help Me Choose Polish for a 4Runner

    Anybody polish a Newer (2014+) Toyota 4Runner? If so, what worked for you? I`ve got one next week, my Bro-in-law, and I`ve got it for at least three days. Of course, a test spot is expected, but I thought some guidance would be better than throwing darts. There are spots where I`ll need to...

    Confessions Thread

    I had my mother in-law drive me to Autozone for a new car battery because mine decided to die all of a sudden. I was highly stressed when the van didn`t start because I needed to be somewhere, and because it showed no signs of getting weak. Now, a week later, I just remembered that I own a...

    Microfiber Bonnets for Wax Removal

    Has anyone tried using these to remove non-hazing and/or hazing waxes? AG seemed to word their description as if they are only a good idea for non-foaming waxes. What are your guy`s thoughts? Are these a good idea or a waste of time? Thanks.

    Meg`s Q.I.D. Issues

    I know posting this here is the right choice because posting this "Over there" might catch me some flak. Besides, I think I`ll get better answers here. Here`s the issue: Every bottle of Meg`s QID that I buy all smell vastly different. It used to smell good, light, and clean. Now, it ranges from...

    Waterless/Rinsless vs. Non-Foaming Shampoo

    A great thing happened to me yesterday; I finally used a year-old sample of Pinnacle Body-Work Shampoo to wash my van. Quickly, I noticed it didn`t foam. I thought maybe the product went bad. I used it anyway, 2 ounces to 2 gallons. It cleaned gently, felt slick, and best of all, it rinsed very...

    Wheel Coatings, Glass Coatings Used For Paint?

    So, I have all of PBL`s coatings, including the all-Surface Coating (that giant bottle), and I got to thinking of how different can these formulations be to actually cross-use them, or not, on different surfaces. I can see the glass coating being different, but even then, I bet it could be used...

    Hot Water through an Electronic Pressure Washer?

    Anybody know if this is a long-term bad idea? It's been okay short-term so far...
