    Wheel brush recommendation needed

    I have 16" 14 spoke chromed aluminum wheels. Pretty but a PIA to clean. Can anyone recommend a gentle brush that gets into the tight spots to clean them thoroughly?

    I think the flight path...

    ......of the birds has changed this Spring. I wash my car in the same place all the time. I went in the house for a few mintues after washing last weekend and when I came out, the hood had been bombed. I cleaned it up, and within an hour, it got bumbed again, close to the same spot. I...

    Repainting and Liquid Glass

    Last week I was rear ended. The repairs will reqire some repainting. I use to use Liquid Glass but for the past few months I have been using NXT. The FAQ's on Liquid Glasses website state Should I warn the body shop that I've used Liquid Glass? It seems to me they should be doing a...

    Ants!

    There are ants all over my car. But, not a one to be found on my wife's car that is parked next to it (both outdoors). I use the same products on both cars except I use NXT on hers and Liquid Glass on mine. The only other difference is her car is dark blue and mine is silver metallic...

    Have you become an amateur weather forecaster?

    The more fanatical I become about my car's appearance, the more anal I am about trying to figure out the weather forecast. The default channel on my TiVo is The Weather Channel. I keep a tally on each of the local stations and the percentage of times their forecasts are accurate. My...

    Another Chrome Wheel question

    Is my neighbor a nut? He doesnt' seem too crazy but I wonder. Yesterday as I was finishing washing and drying my car, he came over with a couple of beers. Well, that's a good sign.. As we were sitting there, chatting and drinking the beers, he noticed my chrome wheels and told me his...

    How to kill a tree

    Does anybody have any suggestions on how to kill a tree secretly? Let's just say to preserve marital harmony, I'd like a tree rubbed out but it to not be obvious. It is on my property and killing it would in no way be illegal. I just want to get rid this particular tree. If you have any...

    This ticked me off.

    Saturday, I spent probably 5 hours washing, waxing and in general giving my car a good detail. Sunday moring, I proudly take my wife to breakfast. As I'm driving in the parking lot I see a crew of guys cutting grass and blowing debris with leaf blowers. I carefully picked a place to park...

    Leaf blower noise

    I've been reading the post about blowing cars dry and am just about persuaded to give it a try. However, I have one problem - the noise. I'm a morning person and in the summer I generally like to wash our cars very early on Saturday and Sunday mornings. I'm setting up even before it is...

    Hard to reach glass?

    I have no real problem getting glass clean except in the hard to reach lower parts of sloped windshields and back glass. It is hard to get to those areas. Is there a product that does a good job of reaching those areas especially in the corners?
