har har. Hurt myself laughing at that one, JohnC. Thanks.

I can just see the TV commercial for this:

"Collinite Speed Stick. Strong enough for a car ... but made for an Autopian."

Though the intelligent person in me knows that is a stupid idea, Why is it that I am tempted to try that idea on myself . . .

AXE no. 16 - the axe effect remains, but with 3 months of durability.

this was a laugh out loud read for me going through the responses, a first here on autopia. And to the guy who wrote the original post, great write-up! Only from the minds of geniuses!!

Some/same ideas always come back...

I had to quote myself as the frequent reposts started to bug me... I went down to the cellar to dig out my REALLY OLD stuff.

Well, I couldn't find the Simoniz stick, but I could find the mentioned Gillette/Auto Pudding thingy from 1992 (the AP itself is a lot older actually). It is absolutely useless now, dry and cracked, but an interesting flashback from the past. More interesting, that I found the original Auto Pudding too!

Now the pics:

A bit dry, huh?

Shrunken and bone dry...

The micro-grille was once a great application aid

The Golden Oldies

Even the original applicator is in there!

Well, let's see what's under the rusty lid...

OMG, what a seal! The stuff is perfectly smooth, creamy and usable! Look at that glossy lid & jar inside!

So, two pieces of detailing history... I have to find a nice place for them.
