    "Expired" Stoners Invisible Glass?

    Just actually read the directions on my Invisible Glass can and it says "do not use past due date on bottom of can".Does this stuff actually go bad?Mine expired Sept.06,I thought I bought it right around that time.I've never heard of a cleaner having an expiration date.

    Very confusing!!!

    Have a 98 Dodge Ram Quad Cab 4x4,black.I have been using a PC and LC pads with Poorboys SSR1 and SSR2.5,then Megs NXT and #16.Finished vehicle looks pretty good but I think I need something a little more aggressive before the wax.I work in an industrial area so I do get some minor overspray.It's...

    Waffleweave Problems

    Drying With Waffleweave

    I just got my new 24"x36" waffleweave towel from Eshine but I can't seem to make it work as good as it should.Or as good as I have read they should work.When I try and dry the vehicle the WW towel seems to leave streaks of water on the surface.I had better results using my CWB and a terry cloth...

    Megs #80 in Vancouver

    Where can I get Megs #80 Speed Glaze in Vancouver or by mail order.Lordco only seems to carry #83.CarCareSmart only carries #83.I was going to order SSR 1 & 2.5 from Eshine but I think the Megs is a little better.Not to mention you get twice as much for just a little more money.

    EShine.ca microfiber

    Has anyone purchased microfiber products from these guys.I'd especially like to know about the waffleweave drying towels.Are they good quality.Worth the money.I'm in Vancouver so not a lot of choices to buy from.

    Lake Country 7.5" Pads

    Can someone tell me what the largest diameter backing pad is that I can use with these pads is?I have a few different sizes kicking around, 5",5.5",5.75",6.5".Just about to order some pads from The Pak Shak and figured if I can use one of these I can buy another type of polish to try!

    The Absorber Sucks!!!

    Tried my new $20 Absorber for the first time today and man did it suck.Drags across the surface,even when I tried blotting it still didn't absorb that much water.I'm going to try and take it back to Zellers.So I used my good old CWB.Just have to make sure it is clean along with your paint...

    Poorboys vs. Megs

    What is the concensus here.Should I go with SSR 2.5 and SSR 1, or Megs DACP #83 and #80.If it helps the vehicle is black with medium swirl marks.Also does Poorboys really work in the sun?That would be kind of a bonus.
