    Black Magic Tire Wet

    How long do your pads last?

    MF lint

    I tried the search and couldn't find the answer. I've washed my MF towels countless times and they always seem to have lint on them. I wash them in warm water with Dawn and have been letting them air dry. (tried the dryer and they seem to have more lint) thanks

    Simple Green in the interior

    I've been searching and a few people have suggested that dilluted SG is effective at removing interior build-up in order to start fresh. Now, in all the searching I haven't found how dilluted it should be? Could someone help? I was thinking 3 parts H2O to 1 part SG? thanks
