    Hi everybody.



    Just wanted to let you guys know about some of the stuff I saw at Big Lots today.



    1000w Dual Halogen work lights, $20.00. It`s too good of deal to pass up so I bought it!

    5hp wet dry vac $60. I think it`s remanufacutured but still a good deal.

    Karcher 1400psi pressure washer $60 I think it looked something like this but I`m not too sure:







    Karcher pressure washer w/ the Honda generator thingy $250

    similar to this:







    Some generators and more shop vacs. There was something else interesting too. A Mr. Clean trim protectant. Never seen it before or heard of it but for $1.50 I`ll try it.







    From what I remember there was also the usual Long Haul gloss spray as a good clay lube for $3.50 for 28oz and a whole lot of NASCAR based products and some NXT Tire foam. Just a heads up for you guys. I think it`s a good deal or it`s at least worth checking out. Especially the Halogens. After all it`s only $20.

    I picked up the last Megs wheel brush for $3.99. I pick up a lot of detailing supplies from Big Lots. It typically only costs a buck or two to try something new. Here`s what I`ve obtained over the past year or so:



    Turtle Wax Platinum Ultra Glass (great)

    SS Nathans Polish (easy on, easy off, doesn`t dust or stain trim, OK results)

    The Wax Shop Cleaner Wax (tried it on one panel, but can`t remember the results?)

    Wax Shop Alluminum Polish (OK)

    SS Nathans Bug Blast (worked great)

    SS Nathans APC (OK)

    SS Nathan Tire Cleaner (not so OK)

    Zymol QD (I think it`s good for the price)

    Black Magic QD (haven`t tried yet)

    Black Magic Wheel Wipes (any wipe would clean a wheel -- you still have follow with clean/dry towel)

    Meguiars NXT Tire Cleaner (haven`t tried yet)

    Black Magic Tire Shine (OK)





    ..and for the garage:

    PB Blaster Garage Door Lube (works great)

    Yeah, I bought the 1000w halogen light stand over the holidays. It works and great deal for $20 bucks. I mean you see a big difference with the $60+ models. But for $20, who cares. My wife did notice our electric bill was pretty high for December/January/February. I don`t know hun? We have to watch our drying machine usage more closely - tongue in cheek.
