Flying down to Hilton Head to check out the Concours and other events on Sat. and Sun. Anyone else going? I`ve never been to this particular show, but it`s been on my list for several years. For me, Keeneland is always the most fun, but we`ll see how this compares, vehicle and atmosphere-wise...

One Griot's product I really would like to see offered again are the "White Wax Applicator Pads." They were just high quality foam, good oval-like shape, and worked great for wax and sealants, and you could cut them apart into different shapes for rubber protectant applications, etc. I would...

Back home in PA now,,,, this usually means a little jaunt into Lancaster County with my family to the Mennonite-owned stores, cool harware places, pretzel company outlets, etc.   Saw a nice display of the full line (I mean clay, all chemicals, etc. realy cool display) of Smartwax OTC at:  ...

Anyone else go? Made it there yesterday- some nice vehicles in a fantastic setting!   Ferruccio Lamborghini's personal Islero was there... think that was about my favorite in the show.   Keeneland at Lexington is coming up next month!

Anyone really good with Adobe ID?   I have a question about baseline grids vs. text leading size. Anyone, anyone??? :unsure:

Workday finished... check. Look at Autopia for a few minutes... check. Remember to see if Autosol metal polish is still around... check. What's this one though - for "chomed plastic" grilles or...? Actually zoom in on the box.. it is! Weird- never saw it before. Maybe someone out there...

Thinking of ordering some of these for my wash setup... is this photo correct? I thought I read somewhere that the flow is "on" when the lever is horizontal, not in line with the fitting. If this photo is not correct, I'm not buying 'em. Seems like the washing with the lever sticking out is...

I'm in the market for a new shop vac. for heavy-duty home use and the cars. I have the Metrovac and a small dyson for small-scale stuff, but my cheap, larger vac is worn out. I've decided to just go with Lowe's on this one, to keep it simple. Looking to spend $150 - $450... keep in mind it's...

Just heard from Robert at Hi-Temp: Prep Wash is now known as: HT-806 AKRYA KLEAN. They always get back to you quickly when you have questions.

Just got word from Griot's that they are phasing out their super-high qual. stainless plate frames. It was always nice to get these, take them out of the plastic envelope and put them on the car (with the clear cover and bolt-hiding caps). Haven't looked for a different source for 15 years...

I haven't followed the history of this issue, but I still can't see/use "Reviews" the way I could months ago. Liked to look at that section/do reviews once in a while. Still a known issue that is being worked on? Thanks.

I didn't notice if anyone posted about it yet, but did anyone see the "Shark Tank" episode with Aaron Krause of Dedication to Detail/The Edge (pads)? He made a deal with his smiley-face Scrub Daddy sponge. I knew I recognized him from somewhere, then figured it out today.

At least one well-known company offers throwaway cotton wipes for exhaust tips, chrome, etc. Nice, but pricey. Good alternative... I'm on my third roll: Amazon.com: Webril Handi-pads 8x8 Bag 100 Wipes / Roll: Arts, Crafts & Sewing

Anyone try the Weather Tech Protector product for floor mats yet? It's supposed to dry to an "anti-slip finish." Been using Autoglym, 303 and Adam's... I dunno, I wonder if its worth trying or not. Re-packaged?

I still use my 7 or 8 Griot's "Finest Sprayers," but was disapointed that they changed the design (the newest one's not bad though). That "finned" design was also around at Home Depot, etc. One day they were just not available anywhere. Today I went out over lunch to buy Zep's Citrus and Purple...

Had my Metropolitan Vac for years, and it's great. Occasionally I'll use it for drying the cars after a wash, but I noticed that it works much better without the thin "yellow" filter installed. I haven't noticed dirt blowing out, but is this a bad idea? Quick searches didn't turn up much about...

The GLI seems perfect, though the Golf is cheaper and the Passat obviously has more room. I'm used to cars with at least some handling ability... is the GLI suspension and motor really worth the cost? I could just do a Golf and add moderate aftermarket suspension. I've driven the Passat and I...

Well, people sometimes have a tough time accepting change... I kind of miss the Pro Before/After section. It just seemed like most people had the sense to know whether or not to post in that section. I, for example, would not post there, as my work would only look like decent amateur stuff...

I may not post often, but I'm on here all the time. I'm one of those people who picked up the AG wax at WM for a great price. Will it work over Optimum OS? Looking to try it on our black 2010 Accord after a decontam & Pin clay.

Soak new sheepskin mitts before using 'em. Just opened my new mitt from a well-known company from Washington State. Found nettles (I guess), and straw and what looked like wheat stalks down in the fibers. Prob. no biggie. They were extracted easily with tweezers. Guess the sheep was in a nettle...
