Good advice - I forgot about the rims and wipers...

Ok - I've zip experience detailing a vehicle... to please a woman. And in this instance my Mom who just acquired a new Equinox. I am planning to rely on Rejex for most applications as I have a fair amount of experience with it and it's ability to shed dirt with a simple rinse off is appealing...

I have done mail order with them on several occasions and yes, they will deliver on all counts. Superior products, but they are a personalized company - not exactly in step with maintaining a high-grade web presence. My recommedation is to interact (and converse) with them via the phone. I've...

Well, for a "refresh", I just suck out what I can with a large syringe & flexible tubing from the reservoir and replace with new. Do that every few months (with a little MMO tossed in at the beginning) and you get the benefit of continual debris removal over the long haul. But had it been easy...

An old 3.5" Craftsman is on it's way, which will get me through the immediate need and be easy to fit on the work surface. Aged iron is good in my book! Thanks, Gents!

Now that is impressive!! Originally Posted By: widman Mine is locally made out of railroad tracks

Well, $1K+ is way North of my price point... I think allocating $100 for a local find is probably what I'll have to resort to. Unfortunately the time neeeded to scavenge hunt is not something I can readily come across. But a man has to do what must be done... Originally Posted By: ajchien...

If you were to buy a bench vise tomorrow, which one would you get? I can resist one no longer!

Sad to say... but I've grown to detest GM's lead-free battery clamps used on my top-post battery. A chintzy clamping mechanism with a specialized nut is used to cam the clamp shut on the terminals - and frankly is an over-engineered "solution". Do any of you know who might make a set of...

I'm chugging along now with the blue 3-in-1 & also the Zoom Spout as a gourmet option... Thanks all.

My plumber asked an innocent question of me while doing some basement work: "Do you ever lube this motor?" I could not believe I had overlooked the poor thing, but my deep-well jet pump motor has been ignored for over 20-years. Yep... all I had to do was look for it and I would have found an oil...

I once went through a multi-day ordeal and finally met with success after downing a half dozen Coke Classics. The treatment regime which specified Cokes also included eating asparagus... and that was not tolerated by my palate in the least. Although there was benefit from lemon juice and olive...

Funny thing.. I have now noticed that at night, with very light mist or snow, a film does indeed become evident with my homebrew. You wouldn't really notice it initially unless one was used to droplet beading and subsequent migration... but moisture does tend to stick and stay in place - making...

It's an experiment! At speed (>45mph) I do observe the fluid being more noticeable as it starts crawling up the corners of the windshield. Maybe that means it is carrying more contaminants than the typical retail fluid would have in it. But, I don't notice it being a negative factor in...
