It's on sale at Costco right now for $55. I picked it up on Saturday. Not sure how long the sale is for. However, normal price is $69 (cheaper than Amazon's sale price) - instant $15 savings. Not sure how long the sale is for. I got it at the Wharton, NJ Costco.

I have ceramic brakes on my minivan and they dust a lot! I can clean them off of the rims pretty well with various cleaners and brushes. The problem I have is that the rotors accumulate enough to create a grinding sound when the brakes are applied. My mechanic will clean them off for free...

I have the foam gun and like it. I can't imagine washing w/o it. I've had it since 2005. I see the big thing now is the foam cannon. I don't NEED the foam cannon but it looks really cool and I'm a tool addict. From what I can tell, it performs the same function as the foam gun, eg...

Has anyone ever considered or tried out the high end Purdy paint brushes from Home Depot/Lowes? They have some extremely soft natural hair brushes meant for applying clear finishes. Just wondering how they compare to the specialized detailing brushes sold on various sites. If they...

I'm considering getting the Metro Blaster Sidekick. I only want something to blow out water from cracks and seams. I always find water streaks or spots after driving the car after a wash. The full vac/blower is too expensive for me. I also like the compact size of the sidekick. Does...

I live in Hackettstown, NJ (intersection of Warren, Sussex, and Morris county). I'm looking for local dealers of Collinite 845 Insulator Wax. Does anyone know of a location? I also work in PA near the Center Valley/Bethlehem area. I could check locations near there as well.

I know the chrome trim on the car is not real chrome. I guess it's plastic with a chrome look finish - grill, window trim Can I use Klasse Aio and SG on it? Will the AIO, being a polish, damage the finish? I'm fine with using just SG if that is the case. I also have NXT, EX-P, and OCW. I...

PB Black Hole says it has cleaners to remove dirt and grime...will those same cleaners remove Klasse AIO too? I was thinking of putting a layer of Klasse AIO, Black Hole to fill in some minor swirls, and top with either Klasse SG or PB EX-P. I have a 2010 black Acura TSX that has very...

I know about Rainx and Aquapel (sp?). I have Klasse SG currently and AIO will be coming in the mail soon. I love how my Meg's glass cleaner leaves a slick coat that just lets the rain bead and slide right off. Rather than buy another product (more importantly find a place for it), can I...

Is there difference between lambswool and sheepskin mitts? Mothers makes a lambswool: http://www.amazon.com/Mothers-Genuin...pd_sim_auto_98 Autogeek sells a sheepskin: Sheepskin Wash Mitt Is it just terminology or is there a difference...sheepskin to me is wool or am I crazy? I'm...

Ugh...EX-P compromised due to rain? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So it was finally a beautiful weekend here in NJ. I gave my van a thorough cleaning (wash, light clay, etc.) for its first coat of EXP since my winter treatment: Anyway...

I really love how plush and soft the Viking drying towel is. It's light years softer than my Meg's water magnet after the same number of washes (albeit, the water magnet is still relatively soft.) For those that are not familiar with the Viking, it's not a waffle weave; it's a very plush mf...

Just wondering if anyone uses a QD towel to remove wax? I have Meg's supreme shine and Viking's polishing cloth. Both seem to get clogged really fast. Also, while both feel really soft, I sometimes have to rub a little hard to remove a stubborn spot of sealant or wax. I was thinking of...

I have the PC 7336 that you can get from Lowes. I apply NXT with a finishing pad. I noticed that since the pad is quite soft, the weight of the PC will squash the pad. I find that when on speed 3 or 4, the pressure of the weight of the PC will bog down the PC and keep it from spinning the pad. I...

Can I apply 303 on coated leather? I currently use Meg's and Lexol. Lexol doesn't mention how much UV it has. Meg's doesn't either but comments on their board doesn't make it seem like it's a huge amount either. Since the coating is probably just some sort of vinyl, can I use 303 protectant...
