Big Lots has some nice deals!

Detailer's Choice microfiber covered foam wash pads for $2. Picked up a couple, used one on several cars now and it is holding up well. Seems to clean better then chenille. Probably going to go back and buy several.

Nascar Tire Shine, 23 oz bottles for $3 6 bottles would equal 138 oz, so a little more than a gallon of tire dressing for $18. A little more gloss than Armor All, decent durability.

Karcher 1500 psi power washer for $80.

Re: Big Lots has some nice deals!

Great deal Scott, i just stop by advanced auto and found at the discount table 6 MF's and 3 double MF pads for 95% off, my total was a total of 2.25 ! i was a happy camper today, and the deal you got was awesome! The Karcher is the same one i have and it was 90.00 dollars about 2 or 3 years ago and it does wonders for me and at 80.00 bucks it's a great deal!

Re: Big Lots has some nice deals!

I got a couple of cans there the last time I went. I really like it. It has a good shine too it. I used it today on my car, didnt notice any slinging. The whole TWPUG is a pretty good OTC line up.

I'm hooked on the old Meguiar's chenille covered ones, but those are hard to find now. I'll have to try the microfiber ones. At least I won't have the fuzz problem at first like with the chenille. Thanks for the tip.

I thought about the Karchers also, untill I read the reveiws on them over at Amazon.
Read the reveiws first. Apparently, they have a LOT of problems with burtsting hoses and seals...

Re: Big Lots has some nice deals!

Those Karchers are rebuilt and only have a 30 day warranty, FWIW.

Re: Big Lots has some nice deals!

yes i noticed that as well, and if i'm not mistaken.. you're talking about the blue mf foam wash pads? i've been tempted to pick up that pressure washer (will use it for engine) as they have it for $60 around me, but am waiting for it to go down in price, then i'll snag it if it's still around . also, they also have some tire dressing applictors and various sponges from a company called spongezz...

Re: Big Lots has some nice deals!

they also have the small hand scrubbers for removing dirt and grease from your hands. Some stores have the TWUP leather and wheel cleaners.
