    Largest Size of MF Towel You've Found ?

    What's the largest MF towel you've been able to find? Has anyone bought one of the gray colored MF towels? Thanks for any input. I've found a big MF and a pretty good WWMF but I'd like to know what else may be out there that I haven't discovered in my searching the web :)

    Microfibers, Fabric Softener and an idea...

    Washed a load of MF towels. I don't put them in the dryer because it appeared the first time I did that they seemed to have gotten fabric softener on it. Picked up this hanger from the dollar store that has clips to hang about 20 towels up and have been using that. BUT, this morning, the...

    Platform Ladder / Scaffold

    As mentioned in previous posts, I'm very vertically challenged:( I had seen a platform ladder that was higher than the one they carry at HD, it's a 3-step PF ladder, 28" high. I found it through QVC, but waited to long to order and they sold out. It was $67.75 plus $11.75 for shipping for a...

    Clay and Pollen and/or Dust Question - Oh, And Hail Too!

    Got home this past weekend, figured I'd try and get a day to finally clay my car, but figured I better ask this question before I even attempt it. Not sure about how it is elsewhere around the US, but for the past few weeks, well, at least since I got this car 6 weeks ago, the pollen here has...

    Orbital Buffer Q's

    So I go to Vegas - while the OH is at the casino, I'm out shopping :) Stopped at CHECKERS AUTO and found a 6" COLEMAN POWERMATE OB for $12.99. So now, what do I do with it? It comes with 2 bonnets - one is a terry cloth - won't this damage the surface of the car? The other, a synthetic...

    Homemade Grit Guard

    Okay, so it's not EXACTLY the same, but hey, out of necessity (okay, actually, the lack of funds) comes the Mother of Ingenuity!;) Thought the GG was a great idea, just can't see spending the $ along with the shipping for this, sooo, I came up with an idea that I think may work. Was at the...

    Advice Please

    Figured I'd put this question out for you who are the professionals. I've been reading about claying a car and how many people swear by it. I've also read people who've seemed to screw up their car doing it wrong as well. I've resigned to the fact that I'm not confident enough to take that...

    Dusty Car

    Just curious, besides the famed ORIGINAL CALI DUSTER, what else would you use to get the dust off the hood and back window of your car. Washed my car the other day, then it sat and came out the next day and dust all over the hood. Looks like I went through a dust storm!:eek I've heard some...

    Small Scratch

    When I bought my car, had a small scratch on the door handle, like someone's ring maybe. It's a slightly zig-zagy scratch. I didn't ask the dealer to take care of it, but instead requested some touch up paint. It does go through - not just a light surface. Was wondering before I screw...

    Rained here in sunny SOFLA big time today. So, having learned a few things, I knew that I just had to get out there and get that car taken care of pronto. My neighbor comes out and says "Don't tell me your drying your car off!" Little did he know, if he had come out a few minutes earlier...
