    Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Graphene

    I have used Seal n Shine and Hybrid Solutions Ceramic spray, but much prefer the Graphene Flex wax spray. So far it has been more durable than anything I've used. Originally applied in April. Topped with Griot's 3 in 1 ceramic in August, and when I was washing the other day it was still beading...

    Couldn't take it anymore

    We have HT's on my wife's Colorado with OWLs and like the appearance very much. Like the tires too!

    Chevy V6 (Colorado...) - best oil?

    Our '18 Colorado that is short tripped by my wife regularly gets the OLM to 5% by 2,700 miles.

    Graphene

    I have some of the Pro Flex Wax spray, but have not had the chance to use it. I believe TW is claiming their use of a different form of graphene minimizes some of the issues the reviewer mentions. 86% of over 800 reviews on Amazon give it 5 stars. I'm looking forward to giving it a go.

    Nissan vs. Kia

    I had 6 Nissan cars and 2 Nissan trucks between 1992 and 2020. The '97 hardbody had a bad EGR valve, and the 2010 Maxima had a bad front wheel bearing. Other than a few Evap cannisters, those were the most serious problems in about 400K mikes of driving. I traded a 2016 Maxima on a Hyundai...

    Continental truck tire line blowing doors off Michelin Defender LTX

    We have had the TerrainContact H/T on the wife's 2018 Colorado for a little over a month now. Like every aspect of them. https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tests/testDisplay.jsp?ttid=256

    Griots 3 in 1 Ceramic Wax.

    I am pasting my reply to another thread - I like it so far! I finally got a chance to try Griot's 3 in 1 Ceramic Wax. It was a little easier to work with than the Hybrid Solutions product, which it is applied over. I had less streaking, and less an effort to remove in the few places where I...

    Not sure I understand this: "....UBBThreads display name as your Xenforo username..." Maybe I'm overthinking this?? PS - Thanks in advance for all the work AND thought that has gone in to this!!!

    TW Seal & Shine

    I finally got a chance to try Griot's 3 in 1 Ceramic Wax. It was a little easier to work with than the Hybrid Solutions product, which it is applied over. I had less streaking, and less an effort to remove in the few places where I let it get a little thick. Immediately very smooth and slick...

    how does insurance co determine value when totaled

    I imagine companies differ somewhat on their approach. I only have one experience, about 2 1/2 years ago. My wife hit a deer in her 2007 Frontier, that we had paid $20K for when new 10.5 years earlier. It had about 85K miles, but was clean and well cared for. It was towed to the body shop, and...
