    303 on subs?

    Supid ?, but would it benefit (or harm) if one were to use 303 on a rubber surround and poly cone? I just want to freshen it up -- make it look new/clean. Or would a damp cloth (H2O) be better?

    traffic?

    I haven't been active on here for the past 2+ years due to jobs, etc. Is it me, or is the traffic on here much less than it was 2-3 years ago? Did I miss something?

    Anyone ever use AW while drying ONR wash?

    This is more of a "procedure" vs. product question, so I thought I'd post it here. From another thread, it appears that most use AW dry. However, I use it wet --- while drying. That got me to thinking....Would it be OK to use AW while drying an ONR wash? Let's say it's 50-55 degrees in the...

    Anyone try Absorber XL?

    Stopped at AAP during lunch, and noticed a new Absorber XL. It appears to be marketed for trying large SUVs, etc. It looks to have a waffle-weave-like texture to it -- as apposed to the smooth, regular Absorber. One interesting thing I noticed was that the tube was a lot larger than the...

    New wheels/tires for Fusion

    DG 101 Vs. KAIO

    I've seen a lot of posts comparing KAIO with ZAIO, or Poli-Seal, etc. But, what about DG 101 Vs. KAIO? I only have experience with DG 101 as an AIO type product. Is KAIO much better, stronger, etc.? Would I benefit by ordering it (& paying for shipping) vs. running down to Carquest to buy...

    DG 105 = major dust magnet - how to remedy?

    I used DG 105 for the first time on my daily driver a few weeks ago. The following weekend, we took our annual trip to the pumpkin patch (lots of gravel roads). Even thought I love the use and looks of DG 105, HOLY COW -- does dust stick to it horribly. I don't mean it attracts light dust --...

    Winter Prep on 07 Mariner

    There's nothing too exciting here, but I finished the winter prep on one of my daily drivers: 07 Mercury Mariner. I've had this vehicle almost 1 year. The paint is still smooth, so it didn't require clay. It sits in the garage all but 45 minutes/day. Here's the process/products used: - 2...

    Sprayway Glass Cleaner back at Costco

    I was at Costco during lunch, and noticed they received Sprayway Glass Cleaner once again. Seems like over 2 years ago when I last saw it at my location. I picked up a 4-pack for $6.99. Excellent deal! I love this stuff for the house. At this price, I may start replacing IG for the autos.

    How often do you wash your drying towels?

    I've used the Absorber for years. I'm thinking of trying MF or WW for drying, but I was wondering how often you wash them? After every use? When they are visibly dirty? With the Absorber, I simply rinse and put back in the tube damp. How do you care for your drying towels? I have many...

    Does your Jelly Blade leave rubber scuffs?

    I'm unsure if I'm doing something wrong, but I purchased the CA Jelly Blade a few months ago. I've used it several times -- on 3 cars now. Sometimes mine leaves rubber scuffs on the paint. I'm not applying pressure -- just gliding across the top. I mainly use it for the hood, roof, and...
