    Huh...yeah, I bet it does!

    I do run (Husky brand) floorliners in the front of the Tahoe (dirty places I take the dogs) and I keep a small WeatherTech on one side in the back of the A8 (lest groceries-leakage ever soak into carpet), but otherwise I`d think folks would want something plusher on a day-to-day basis.

    EDIT: Eh, but then we run the oe carpeted mats in front of the A8 all through the winter, so once again I guess *we`re* weird

    Between Hilly & Grif..........


    I`m tired of being blamed every time liberals don`t get their way.

    Heh heh, but...but... inexplicably (to me).....you *care*

    I`m sure I get blamed for all sorts of stuff just for being [the member of a certain demographic], but honestly...I could not care less, literally, as long as that blame doesn`t morph into something that interferes with me or genuinely requires my, uhm...[active attention].

    The world`s just chock-full of [individuals] who are wrong about stuff, but unless I have a reason to try, and likelihood of, correcting their errors, I`m not gonna divert any resources towards them. Hillary ceased to exist for me when she lost the Election; Griffin basically doesn`t exist for me other than relative to the time I`ve now wasted posting about her here. I wouldn`t discuss either of `em IRL if I were paid by the minute nor would I listen to anybody who does. Life`s too short.

    Heh heh...shades of the Official Politics Thread [Accumulator catches self and steps back from perceived edge...]

    Nope, you`ve been sucked in, crossed the not so imaginary line, you are now part of the Politics Zone.

    Re: Random thoughts thread

    As much as I like having a white car, there are a couple of things I don`t like about it. 1) It shows every spec of tar and rust bloom. 2) After paint correction the results aren`t as satisfying as dark colors.

    I love the iBrid and I have a Mini on the way.

    Lastly I need more practice with my G15 and G21, I came from using a flex 3401 and a DA. I am really trying to focus on my technique.

    Based on my (utterly wonderful) experiences with white cars...which I really miss...ya might think about:

    -Do a chemical decontamination for the Rust Blooms if not already doing so
    -Overkill the Final Polishing as if it were jet black or something
    -Use FK1000P for your LSP if you aren`t already
    -Use something like IUDJ as a Drying Aid, I was shocked by what a diff it made

    OOOH, I envy your polisher collection! Oh man, with all those and a white car...sounds like Heaven to me!

    [Darn] I miss my white vehicles

    I`ll take heat over cold any day. Though hot + humid can get a bit much...still, like it better than being cold by a country mile.

    I can dress and be comfortable in the cold. There`s no escaping the misery of heat and humidity **for me**

    House of Wax- Yeah, different people are different when it comes to tolerating heat/cold all right. Even with gloves/etc. my hands get cold around November and basically stay that way until springtime, sometimes it gets so bad that I struggle to write legibly even in a well-heated room when the rest of me is nice and warm. Been that way since I was a little kid Though staying in shape helps a lot.

    Thank you for the tips! I use Iron X and it does a good job, however it seems like I would have to use it every few months to keep the iron deposits at bay. I have been using Wolfgang Uber Rinseless as drying aid, it seems to add some pop to the paint. Maybe I will have to add some IUDJ to my arsenal.

    Right now I am polishing off the CQuartz UK. It`s been on for a couple years and the car has some light marring and could use a refresh.

    I love having tools! A person can never have too many.

    Well, if you`re really happy with the Wolfgang...I dunno...you might be doing fine with that.

    Huh, I`m a little surprised you have the rust-blooms with the CQuartz.

    Heh heh, famous last words! I`m finding that I *can* have too many...of most everything But I do really like your, uhm...accumulation...of polishers. I have too many of the wrong ones whereas yours sound just right. Well, other than not including my beloved Cyclo
