    I’m currently in my final year at Quinnipiac University (AACSB Accredited) in Hamden, CT. In my Management-490 class we are acting as business consultants for local small businesses in need of a little extra help from business students. The problems have a pretty decent range, but the two core...

    Yeh, I'm not feeling very creative with titles tonight, sorry. Anyways, I detailed this Passat for a fellow member today, furnace17 (Dennis), in preparation for a clear bra installation early next week. Dennis is just like you and I. He can find every little defect and it bothers him, so I...

    Poorboy's Spray + Rinse Wheel Cleaner containing HFl?

    Natural Look vs. Leather Stuff - I can't tell a difference

    Well, after trying both Natural Look and Leather Stuff, I liked what I was using. The only learning curve I saw was to wipe with an MF about 10 minutes after applying. Neither one dried 100%, but no big deal to me. Just a quick extra step to insure less dust attraction. Since they seemed so...

    3 weeks in, how are your resolutions going?

    I took the easy road out and decided to change up my diet for New Years. I wasn't gaining weight, but I wasn't feeling amazing either. I felt a bit sluggish and I knew that with my busy schedule (no time for exercise), I had to do something in my own control. So, I evaluated my entire menu...

    2005 TL: "My son took the snow off with a steel shovel"

    :scared: :scared: :scared: I thought the same thing... I went and visited mgm2003 this weekend in Delaware. It was more of a leisure and post college planning visit, but he asked for my help on his friend's TL. It's a 2005 that hasn't been cared for well. He had to run inside for...

    Wiper chatter from *protected* windshields? Look in here >

    I have always struggled with wiper chatter after protecting my windshields. I have used Rain-X, Aquapel, various paste waxes, and various sealants to do so. The best performance I ever got with wipers and rain repelling was from S100 (odd, IMO), but that didn't stand up to the abuse well at...
