I could take 1 gallon of ONR and make a LOT of gallons of clay lube... :p

Since detailing is only a hobby for me, I have a gallon of D103, a gallon of degreaser, a gallon of ONR, and a gallon of Megs Shampoo Plus. Everything else is quart sized or less :smile:

It`s hard to say because the only gallon container that I have is ONR. However, I have many 16 and 32 oz. bottles, so I would have to guess at 3-5.

I have 9 gallons but also 5 1/2 gallons so I wonder how I report them? :thumbup:

OK. I`ll clarify the poll. Total all your chemicals (even those not in gallon containers) and add them up to determine how many gallons total (remember 32oz = quart, 4 quarts = 1 gal). :cornut:

Sorry grungy thats too much math for me :biggrin:

A wild guess would be two dozen. Why would you like to know this?:smile:

About 100 gallons or so 55 of that being tire shine

My guess,...28 :spy:

Do you really want me to go out and count them :cursing:

You post reminds me that I need to clean out my cabinet of those old gallons of presta polish and compound. I have not used that garbage in over 2 years. :p

Lol I threw out some really old presta about two weeks ago, nice work!

So this is interesting.. not to make people go out and count by any means, just to see how much stuff you keep handy (I`ve seen some pics of shops here in TID with tens of gallons of product sitting on shelves - makes me wonder if they buy during the deals or just stock up once a quarter). :-B

You are right on target as usual Flash! :thumbup:

**imported_RaskyR1** · 11-23-2010, 04:54 PM

Yep. I order almost everything in gallons. One for the cost saving and two because I always want to make sure I have enough of it. Some of the stuff has been sitting a while though because I ordered something new and liked it better...time to sell off some stuff!
