I keep all my products in the garage and its getting colder. I have several bottles of EWAUD, cans of paste waxes, menzerna polishes, megs SMR 2.0, NXT, QEW, EO Tire Gel and many other products. Do i need to do something to prevent my products from freezing?

I went into the napa by my house yesterday and they have a whole display of 3m products, paste wax in a tub, finesse it II, even a 3m car shampoo ( i didnt even know they made that) all kinds of stuff.. what would be good to pick up? they even have the waffle pads. i think they pretty much have...

I went to costco yesterday and in my travels i found these great spray bottles.. the come 4 to a pack, have good sprayers and the best part is the measuring system on the side.. it gives you marks for dilution ratios, and oz. i mixed up a bottle of woolite 6:1. i forgot how much they were but i...

I was looking up online how exactly wet/dry vacs work and i came across this: Porter Cable has a line of Wet Dry vacs.. any one here have one or used one? it would be kind of cool to have a PC vac :) because we all love the PC 7424 (and its variations) here. here is a link to one...

I used MENZ IP and FP with yellow pad and white for each. i clayed before hand. i applied the #16 with a mf wrapped foam applicator and removed with costco MFs. i found it to be very streaky. There were dark marks/streaks that would not buff out. i had to use WAUD to get rid of them. i have...
