This is kind of a rant... Is anyone like me, getting tired of spending so much energy fighting about politics? (I'm an American, by the way, just living a little farther up north). I'm loosely involved in about 5 forums of diferent sorts, and most of them have some pretty riled up people...

It is now official. You can verify this information from a variety of sources. For some people this will indeed be a life-altering event. For others it will be taken in stride with a rather ho-hum, here-we-go-again attitude. It behooves us all to stand up and take notice. Read on...

Let's hear it all you 40-ish 50-ish plus Classic Rockers. Who's your favorite(s)? (Ponytail not mandatory) The Stones ACDC Creedence Clearwater Revival Led Zeppelin The Who...

Hey all. There's a problem I run into ever once in awhile. I had one today in fact. It's dirt stains and water stains on sport cloth seats. The normal way I do these is along the lines of how my supplier suggests: Spray with a spot remover (I am using ps21 TAW these day, let it soak a little...

One of my suppliers recently put out a detailed process in which to remove stains from sport cloth seats (the type with little or no nap). It is a fairly common problem. But the thing that gets me is they recommend several chemicals used in a variety of ways, which is pretty involved and takes a...

Just wondering what products you guys have used enough now that have proven out to be more than just a flavor of the month. E.g. ONR, M105, etc.

I was just thinking that some of the older seasoned pro's in Autopia Land might tire of thread after thread wanting to know what is the best this or best that. I probably would too if I were in your shoes. But just want you to know for all the noobs and semi-noobs of all types like myself, that...

Just wondering what everybody might be thinking. We are still a few years away from it, but the next car we want to get is a Lexus, maybe just one or two years old if possible. For the luxury and dependability and because we've never had a car that nice (though we've both had new cars before)...

I do interior repairs and ever so often come across carpet stain/dirt problems. Usually it has already been thru the dealership's detail department, so it's stuff they couldn't get out. Yesterday I got one of those jobs. I thought I'd be smart and not paint it if I didn't have to. I tried Spot...

Hey all, While I was attempting to clean some really caked in crud off my wife's alloy wheels this weekend, couple that with an icky thread going these last few days about showing some of your worst looking interiors (whilst I put off my own icky interior one more week). A strange thought...

I like all these threads on worst and best products and I'll probably never get to use half of them. Well the worst I won't for sure! But some of those "best" products are also pretty costy for the average regular weekender or detailer on a budget. So was wondering what are some products you...

I was asked by a UCM at one of my friendly dealer accounts to see if I could get some white stuff off a convertible top on a corvette. It was in a bunch of noticeable places, so I started with some spot shot spot remover and that didn't get it. Then some citrus cleaner, nope. In fact whatever I...

Just wondering anybody have a good clean jokes they want to share? I got a couple I could start out with: A blonde was recently fired from an M&M factory for throwing away what she thought were W's. Therefore, she needed a new job to support herself. After going around town asking if anyone...

Hey guys I had an occasion to use this product today on a hard glue spot on a fabric seat. As most of you probably already know some products work good on some kind of stains, others work better on something else. Well hard glue can be one of the hardest to get clean ('course it matters what...

I just got a detail order full of goodies, well only $150 worth but still nice stuff. But I can't open the box right now cuz the wife is watching. She gets upset when I spend money. So I gotta contain my excitement til later. She gets over it, but initially it's a little tense. Hmmm just 10 feet...
