We have very low humidity here, 20% or so lately. Is that low a problem?

Car sat in garage all night and not used before application. Outdoor temp was 84 so not too warm. Never had the problem before so I'm baffled why this happened.. Will try SatinSilver's remedies listed above.

I'm getting ready to go on a trip so I thought I'd add a little protection. Washed car last night and went out and got a new bottle of TW hybrid solutions ceramic spray coating. I've had very good luck with this in the past....easy on easy off and lasts for several months. This morning I worked...

The engine burns approx. 20 to 25 gallons of fuel oil and uses 200 gallons of water per mile! The range of the train is said to...

I got to see it a few years ago when it did a western tour (Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas and Colorado) right after it completed it's refurbishment. It toured without the auxiliary diesel engines at that time. It did haul a couple of water tank cars, one box car with support personnel and a caboose...

Mr. Clean magic eraser and any of the above recommended soaps.

I received a junk mail solicitation the other day and the metered postage was just over 12 cents. Moving lots of junk probably adds up financially but the normal consumer is getting the shaft. The greeting card business will be non-existent soon and my xmas card list will get shorter and...

The key is who performs the maintenance and do they offer reasonable turnaround time etc. I'm not aware of any Lowes, home depot etc that has it's own maintenance dept.
