    Windows OS question

    A relative of mine recently got her first computer (used). I think it runs XP. My question is "how far back of OS programs will XP be able to recognize?" I have some old disks that list Windows '95 and '98 on them as system requirements that I thought I'd give her to use (basic word...

    New from Armor All

    I saw that AA is now selling a "wash and wax" detailer under the Ultra Shine name. (And it's "Fortified with REAL CARNAUBA WAX!") Typical "use between washes, boost shine", yadda yadda. What made me go "Hmm..." though was that there is no mention of it on their website nor their forum...

    Wooo!! New stuff made specifically for Black Cars!!

    http://www.turtlewax.com/main.taf?p=2,1,4,28 :yay Called "Black Box!" It seems that everything is tinted black! The cleaner, the detail spray and the wax are all "blackified!!" I wonder if the wash is too? :hmmm:

    Pending friend requests?

    Is this something new or had I never noticed it before? (On the User CP page) What are the "benefits?"

    Safety question

    For those of you who are electricians or just have experience with electrical type stuff, is a layer of electrical tape a good enough insulator for booster cables? The reason I ask is that I got a set as a gift last year that seemed to be a very nice quality set. Heavy gauge, heavy duty clamps...

    Thor's Magic Spray & Shine

    One of the few brands I haven't tried. Anyone tried any of their stuff? Looks cheap ... I mean... inexpensive. :notme: http://www.magicsprayandshine.com/index.php?c=16&w=22&r=Y

    New stuff this year in Canadian retailers

    Well, so far this year, I've noticed WalMart is carrying Megs UQD and ColourX. (About the same price as CT has it, so no big savings-ie $12/$13 each). And they seem to have embraced ArmorAll this year as the "accessories" company. (Brushes, mf cloths etc.) Canadian Tire now has the Mothers...

    Interior frost build up

    Just a quick tip for those of us that live in the "cooler" climates. If you are vexed with internal frost build up, chances are you have a film on the interior of the glass. This could be from not cleaning the glass very well (of course, this would be in reference to people other than those...

    "Reminders"

    So, DC has a little reminder "banner" now? (Top of the page - lets you know if you haven't posted for awhile.) Did it just happen today? (I don't remember seeing it before.)

    'Nother new "convenience!"

    I just noticed on the "new posts" screen it shows (at the bottom) a special section for threads that aren't new from your last but have additional posts in them since your last visit. (Did that make sense? :huh: :confused: ) It's says " The threads below have not been updated since your last...

    Scrubber Daddy?

    So, I read a review of this elsewhere. I notice it's not listed on your site. It's still a proto-type, right? Or is it just too new to be listed? Are there different levels of coarseness? Just wondering. :hmmm:

    PD based waterless washes

    I was just thinking... would a PD based waterless wash (DriWash n Guard, Wet Paint Glaze, etc.) work better than a water based product (S+W, DP, etc.) when the weather gets below freezing? I was kind of thinking it should. Has anyone tried and found one to be better than the other? If it...

    Duragloss 101/105 and their pre polishing agent(s)

    I was wondering how using a bonding agent before something like 101 or 105 -cleaner and polish (sealant)- would be able to boost the durability. If the booster is not affected by the polish, then how would the polish clean the paint beneath the booster? And if you can see the paint has been...

    Just wonderin'

    I was just wonderin' (Hmm, that sounds like a title... ;) ) Why can't a PC pad system be made that works like the rotary? A direct bolt on rather than the quick connect. I understand that the quick connect and Velcro® systems are handy features when switching from cutting to polishing pads and...

    Sonus Trim and Motor Kote

    I was just wondering, would this be something useable on the GM cladding that is fade prone when PD dressings are used? I noticed in the description that there seems to be no silicones in it (Not stated specifically, but it sounded like that to me). Thanks.
