    Husky Brand Floor Liner Sources?

    I'll soon be without the beater-Blazer and the places we take the dogs are often nasty-muddy. Next winter will be even worse. So I gotta protect some light gray interiors... I need to get some good floor mats/liners for the Yukon, and I want ones that come up higher than the WeatherTech...

    Source for Brillo Scrub 'N' Toss?

    Anybody have a source for Brillo's Scrub 'N' Toss disposable kitchen cleaning pads? Our local places don't have them and the Brillo website's sources didn't have 'em either :nixweiss

    Static-Cling Paint Protection Film

    I'm not getting anywhere with the SEARCH function (and the puppy's driving me nuts...). So can anybody recommend a source for static-cling paint protection film? I had an old link but it's no longer working...

    Differences in CR123 Batteries?

    Regulars here know that Accumulatorette and I go through a *LOT* of CR123 lithium batteries, primarily in our SureFire flashlights. A while back (after asking here about who had 'em cheap) I stocked up on house-brand ones from The Battery Station...fast forward to today....I opened a new pack...

    Current Best WWMFs/etc. for Glass?

    I'd been very satisfied using Cobra WWMFs for Glass, IIRC I got 'em from AG as an impulse buy when checking out their BHBs. But now they're leaving scads of MF lint behind :( And yeah, I always wash them separately to avoid any cross-contamination. It seems like they must've worn out to the...

    Chevrolet Suburban Forums?

    Anybody know of any good online forums with info about the previous-generation Chevy Suburbans? Our dog-car requirements are changing and I need to start looking into something bigger than the Blazer :o If I gotta drive one of those behemoths it'll need some serious upgrades...

    Good Mindset Saves Off-road Driver

    Check out out this video clip. The guy's *great* driving skills don't impress me as much as the way he kept his head and did the right thing when it hit the fan. LINK: LiveLeak.com - Good Save

    Bucketless Washing w/Foamgun

    On another thread, ZoranC posted: I suggested he try a BHB instead of the mitts, and he posted back: We were about to commit an egregious threadjacking, so I'm picking the topic up again here. I thought this might be of interest to somebody besides ZoranC so I'm not just pursuing it via...

    Rinseless Washes Through a Foamgun?

    Apoligies if this has been covered before, gotta admit I didn't run a search :o I'm wondering if anybody's tried using stuff like QEW/ONR with the foamgun. This came to me while I was replying the the recent ONR thread and thinking about combining my methods with those of rinseless...

    Strongest Carpet Cleaning Product?

    Some of you folks have removed some pretty nasty stains; I need your advice. The problem is badly stained light gray carpet that's been that way for a long time. Even with the Ninja extractor, the Cyclo carpet brushes, and the Daimer steamer, the carpeted dead pedal area of the MPV refuses...

    Hi-Temp Levelers vs. 3M PI-III

    I really like the H-T EC and I'm about to order some OCP to mix with it (as opposed to the 1Z Ultra I used last time). Since I'm ordering from TOL anyhow... :o I know some H-T users have also used 3M's PI-III RC 05933, so: How does the H-T HC compare with PI=III RC 05933? I've...

    Best Large PC Monitor?

    Accumulatorette wants my ViewSonic P220f, so it looks like I'm gonna be buying a new monitor. I'd appreciate some help in coming up with my short-list. I trust you folks a lot more than the usual internet site comparisons. What're the best ones in the at-least-20" size? By "best" I mean...

    Abrasives in Meguiar's Deep Crystal Step #1 Cleaner

    I've said that Meguiar's Deep Crystal Step #1 Paint Cleaner is nonabrasive, and I was wrong about that- it *does* contain (diminishing) abrasives. But whether it will be *functionally* abrasive on your paint is another matter. I just read a post from Mike P. over at MOL where he says that...

    Reliable Low-Profile Floorjack?

    My Griot's low-profile floorjack went inop on my today, at a terribly inconvenient time :angry This is the second one that's done that, and it's not like I abuse them or anything. Anybody know of a good, low-profile jack that *works* and keeps on working? My reliable Craftsman one isn't...

    Autopia Polisher Rentals?

    I've thought about this before, but over at MOL, Superior Shine didn't just *think* about it, he's actually trying to put something together. SO...I'll float the idea for consideration here (Moderators feel free to move this if there's a more appropriate forum). How about having a few...

    The Need to W-O-W-O Souveran (NOT!)

    Since I'm cutting and pasting from other forums today (e.g., my Air Wand thread), I thought I'd do this one as well. Time to debunk a little conventional wisdom and eat a little crow :D Not sure if this oughta go in Detailing or in Products, so Mods- please move it if necessary. Over at...

    Another Air Wand Thread (my review)

    I'd originally posted this over at the BCC forums, thought I'd cut & paste it here. I'd initially thought the Air Wand would be an answer in search of a question, but recent posts where people dismissed the foamgun *without having tried it* prompted me to be open-minded about this product...

    Autopian Definition(s) of Spit-Shining

    I was gonna post the following in the "Spit Shining with FK 425" thread, but decided to make it a new one. IMO we're kinda blurring the common-use definition of "spit-shining" and I'm guilty of doing it myself :o See if this is the consensus of the whole thing, and correct me if I have...

    Pro-Grade Steam Cleaner Recommendations?

    The steamer I currently have, while much more powerful than the hand-held models, still isn't as potent as I'd like. I'm toying with the idea of spending some real money on a very powerful unit. Not as powerful as the propane powered monster we had at the dealership, but still something beyond...

    AIO Alternatives- Best Cleaning Ability?

    Although I plan to keep using AIO under SG, I'd like to find a less-expensive alternative for other applications. Something that will provide cleaning abilities at least equal to AIO's. I've tried Autoglym's SRP, TOL's Snap Seal, 1Z's various polishes, and VM- none of them match AIO's...
