I went out to get in the Explorer today and found a not so nice Christmas present. The right front fender has 3 scratches in it, they are about 6 inches long. :mad: Two of them are down to the metal. :mad: :mad: My guess would be a screwdriver caused the marks. It amazes me how people have...

I bought this mitt at my local NAPA store for $3.99. It is NOT the Viking Mitt, but it is the NAPA brand and it is marked 100% cotton. I have been a big fan of Cotton mitts, but I must say this mitt really disappointed me. Here are some of the reasons 1. Size of the Mitt-- This mitt is...

What your favorite Microfiber towel based on price, quality, and how well they work?

I am considering buying a PC from Coastal Tool. I currently have a rotary buffer, but its getting kind of old and I am going to replace it before spring. I have used a friends PC before, but only on a limited basis, so I don't have a real feel for what it can do. I like rotarys, but they...

Is it just me, or does anyone have a problem with Zaino marring really easy? I was out washing today, and while I was drying my Charisma's were marring the crap of the Zaino. Does anyone besides me have this problem?

Product: Eagle One Concours Satin Tire Shine 18oz Spray Test Vehicle: 1997 Ford Explorer, Bridgestone Dueller AT tires. First off, this product is very hard to find locally. I would say 99% of your local stores will not carry it. But, this product can be ordered from CMA. On to the...

I was drying the Exlorer today after it's normal wash and I noticed that the car had like a greasy film on it. The car has AIOx2 and SGx4 with no topper. They look very much like swirl marks, but when you wipe your finger on the paint you can't see it anymore. I figured it was a film maybe...

Does anyone know what stores you can buy this stuff locally at? I have tried AutoZone, Pepboys, and Target with no luck. Not sure if it's just me who can't find it, the Pepboys and AutoZone here in Cincinnati are pathetic, they dont stock hardly anything.

I just found some STP VisionBlade, is this the same as Aquapel?. I heard that this was the same stuff, it says tested and approved by PPG on the package. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

I am thinking of using EF Power Wash for my "winter wash" I read on CMA that is it really good for cleaning dirty vehicles, and the cars around Cincy get pretty nasty in the winter. I figure that it would be good for getting all the salt and other winter garbage off the car. Does anyone here...

I was looking around CMA today, and they changed the name of the Miracle Towel to the "Magic Towel". Here is why they changed the name according to their website: We previously sold the Microfiber Magic Towel as the "Miracle Towel" unaware that Turtle Wax had a drying towel by that name...

I have Rain-X on the windows of my Explorer, and the Rain-X kept smearing when the wipers where in use. So, I put AIO on the windows to remove the Rain-X. The AIO removed the Rain-X (I think) The water beads now but does not run off like with Rain-X. Anyway the AIO is worse than the Rain-X...

I was reading some posts over there, and they are saying DETAILKING and Beau were kicked off Autopia, and they should go back to where they came from. I know this is not true, they were just posting here today.They tried to make it sound like DK and Beau were invading their board, and told them...

I was out shopping today with my girlfriend and we stopped to look at Homegoods. They have a great deal on Charisma's. They have bath towels for $6.99! And hand towels for $4.99! They had many colors, white, silverose and many others. They are slightly irregular, but they are a great deal. I...

Is anyone having trouble with the board running very slow? It is taking forever to load, and sometimes I get "Website Not Responding"

I tried out a new glass cleaning trick today that wokred very well, and I will share it will my fellow Autopians. Use Bar Keepers Friend on windshields and other windows that devlope a haze and road film on the outside. Get the powder in a can, you can get it in 12oz cans for like $1.50 at your...

I was applying some Rain-X to the windows of the Explorer today, and I decided to wash the car. The Klasse is sheeting again. :( So I guess that flushes our theory of thicker is better right town the drain. This Klasse thing is really starting to get on my nerves. I have to go out and dry...

I was considering ordering some Charisma's from Kevin that are serged. Does anyone here have any Charisma's from Kevin? I was wondering if you guys liked them, and how well they held up in the washing machine with the serged edges. Kevin charges $18 for 2 Charisma's. They are 20''x28'' with...

I have chrome rims on my Lincoln, can I use Zaino on them? The winters can be pretty tough here, and I want to protect the chrome from pitting or getting messed up. Thanks, Brad
