    Glass Towel

    Can you guys recommend a glass towel for me? No matter how I care for my MF`s they always leave some amount of lint on the glass. I switched over to Scotts Shop for Glass but they are disposable and not all that durable. Looking for a better alternative. Thx!

    Windshield Washer De-icer

    I`m looking for a good windshield washer deicer/ice melter to either add to what I have or replace the factory fluid in my 2019 RDX. I had ice on the windshield for the first time today and when I squirted the windshield all it did was make a blue icey mess. Like anything else car related -...

    Silk Edge Microfibers

    Does any one use - or have an opinion on - MF`s w silk edges? I noticed Microfiber Tech has a few that look nice and the Poorboy`s Deluxe Mega towels actually have silk edges as well. I always found my edgeless towels start linting after awhile so I`d like to try something else. Thanks! Dan

    Backing Plate Washer

    I just received the Griots 5“ backing plate for my G9. It came w a "fiber" type washer on the stud of the backing plate. Do I leave it on the stud when I mount the backing plate to the G9? If so, what is the purpose of the washer? Thanks! Dan Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    Cleaning LSP Applicators After Use

    What you do you guys do with your LSP applicator pads after use? I have a bunch of the Buff and Shine red foam wax applicator pads that I use for things like 845 and Jescar Power lock - but stuff like that is a bear to clean out of these pads. What are you guys using to clean these types of...

    Artilery Fungus

    Last year my wife`s white Honda Accord was covered with sticky, tiny black or brown spots all over the entire car. I assumed it was some sort of tree sap but the stuff was resistant to just about anything I threw at it. Tarminator would take it off but I had to go over each individual dot one...

    Scratched Clearcoated Wheels

    Two of the wheels on my `01 Trans Am have some scratches in the clearcoat. They are clear coated polished aluminum factory wheels. It looks like someone may have used something too aggressive to clean them - maybe some chrome polish thinking they were chrome. Does anyone have any experience w...

    Griots Microfiber Wash Pad

    Does anyone have one of these? https://www.griotsgarage.com/product/microfiber+wash+pad.do I`m thinking it might be good for a one bucket rinseless/ONR type wash given that you can fold it in half and get at least four sides out of it before you need to rinse it. I`d only consider it for my...

    Magic Eraser on Windshield

    Has anyone used a wet Magic Eraser to cut the "film"on the interior of a windshield? I saw a video about this on You Tube and it looked like it worked pretty well.

    Pre Treating Panels Prior to Washing

    When I don`t get a chance to do my regular weekly wash on our cars - there always seems to be some tougher spots that don`t come completely clean w just a normal wash. The majority of the time it`s the rocker panels and fenders behind the wheels. I`m thinking maybe pre-treating/pre-soaking...
