Hi, been gone a while and forgot pretty much everything I had learned. Need a quick tip; I'm now using Optimum Hyper products and LC hydrotech pads. Which is the lesser aggressive method: cyan pad and hyper polish or tangerine pad and hyper compound

I havnt heard much buzz about this stuff over here, has anyone used it? I picked some up at advance auto with a $5 mail in rebate, I doubt it will give Optimum Wash a run for its money but for $5 and change I figured I'd give it a try.

This place is awful! I placed an order by phone on November 17, asked about express shipping because i needed it within a week, the lady on the other end sounded pleasant enough and told me they didn't offer express shipping but product was shipping from Ohio and was in stock so it would go out...

I have heard that when petroleum oils are emulsified, such as when rinsing degreaser off an engine, the oil will break down much faster in the eco system compared to say pouring straight oil down the drain, how true is this? The reason I ask is, due to a large oil leak on the 'rents minivan...

I did a little comparison today of these two products. The ONR was mixed 1 capfull of product to roughly 10 oz of tap water, and used as a QD spray. The Free was in its ready-to-use state. So, how did they stack up against each other? Cleaning ability: Free, by a slight margin, my car wasn't...

Can someone get me a link to the MSDS for this stuff, I'm unable to get it off their website. Im trying to find out how this stuff stacks up to Meguiar's Wheel Brightener, has anyone here used both that can compare?

Will any one work ore is there something special about the Proline one that makes it better suited for car washing? I picked one up at a tile shop by my house and it passed the cd scratch test, is it ok to use?

I just got off the phone with Advance Auto trying to track some down locally, they guy looked it up on the computer and said its discontinued, WTF? He also said they don't have any in their warehouse ...

I'm in need of a general purpose degreaser/heavy duty soap for engine, general purpose and undercarriage cleaning and. has anyone used this stuff? Extreme Simple Green I'm wondering if its better than the regular stuff as far as surface safety.

Does anyone know where I could find a 2.5" version of this? Shop-Vac Turbo Nozzle For 1-1/4 Hose [SV-906-98] - $36.95 : Seven Corners Hardware, The finest quality tools, accessories, and hardware at the lowest prices I know adapters exist, but I would rather not loose the air flow if possible.

Can anyone provide me with some info on this stuff? Over on MOL people are having really good success with #49 Oxidation Remover, but It looks like this is a step up in aggressiveness.

I picked one of these up for about $30 and I must say its made the application of vinyl and rubber dressings so much faster and easier its ridiculous! If you haven't used one of these I highly recommend you pick one up. I can coat 4 tires, the engine bay, and the fender wells with only about 1...

Most of the time I use ONR to wash, every once in a while a traditional wash is needed. I have found it works well to pull the car onto my lawn under our Crab Apple tree. I use biodegradable soap, so I figure all the wash and rinse water will hydrate the lawn and out tree, plus its in the...

I'm looking to buy my first pistol soon and I have more or less settled on the Glock 20 10mm I would like some advice for those in the know. I have a very large hand. is the short frame model still a good idea? Is it wise to go with the compensated model? I understand the 10mm, when loaded...

I have used OPT and its the best stuff *I* have used. I think I'm gonna order a gallon but I want some more info on how it stacks up to griot's. I read tom p's review on the stuff but I'm wondering if anyone else has compared them head to head and what they thought.
