    S100 TCC Bottles cracking/leaking

    Anyone sponsor raffles/events?

    Home made car wash dolly

    Not even sure where I should post this but I thought I would share my home made car wash dolly. So far I have $8 into it for the casters and 30 minutes of time. I had the wood laying around already. Tomorrow I'll pick up a small can of paint and finish it off.

    classifieds

    Why is there no date of when something was posted? I would think a posting date would be more important than an expiration date.

    OPT Compound differences

    What are the differences? Is the Hyper Compound being discontinued? Any difference between the Hyper Compound spray and HC II? Have used their polishes and am wanting to try out their compounds.

    BFWD vs. MPL

    Has anyone compared these two? I searched and found a few threads with so-so comparisons. I have used both brands and I know I can't go wrong with either of these two. My question is not the durability as I am sure its there with both and plus I wax or seal my cars before protection runs out...

    Vendor customer service

    If you have a problem with an order, and you call and leave a message, what is an acceptable amount of time to give them to call you back? One message was left 24 hours ago and I just called again and left another message within the last hour. I would say within 24 hours would be more than...

    Tire applicators

    I normally use a foam applicator but I am tired of ruining them when it comes to my own tires. My tires shred the foam. The tread overlaps onto the sidewall and just tears them up. Any suggestions what else to use? I have been using the Eagle One applicators since one will last a few times if I...

    Aluminum polish (large quantity)

    In need of some aluminum polish in a larger quantity. I have two 30' horse trailers and a large coach bus to do as well. Right now I am looking at the 4 step Rolite kit from TOL.

    Surbuff pads

    Going to order some of these up to try out with my Flex 3401 and am wondering how many would be good to order? How many of these do you guys use on a typical sedan for correction? I was thinking 2 as I hear they clean very easily and can be put right back into action. If I like them I will...
