    Vents randomly blow hot air?

    So....almost 4 years in....and, of course outside the original warranty, we had our first issue. The vents seem to randomly blow hot air...and even when we turn the a/c on...the air temp remained hot. I turned the a/c off....and then the hot air seemed to stop. Thankfully, we bought an...

    Keep your WeatherTech's or Husky Mats Clean

    I've used it. They used to sell it in larger quantities than just the spray bottle size. It doesn't work any better than anything else. The protectant is the product you want

    Need some input

    Some decent advice in the previous thread....all except for recommending any Chemical Guys polish. The CG line of abrasives is among the worst in the industry. I'd also recommend a panel wipe, using a product like Car Pro Eraser in between your polishing step and application of any LSP...

    Top Coat F11

    F11 is decent product, but there are several in the same category at a much less painful price point. They have a huge following among the motorcycle crowd, which is where they got their foothold. One of the reasons it is not taken seriously is their own advertisements.....and claims that...

    PSA Slick Products Garden Hose Foam Cannon

    Just for clarity.... a foam cannon is used with a pressure washer, a foam gun is used with a garden hose.

    Keep your WeatherTech's or Husky Mats Clean

    Any APC (all purpose cleaner) will get your mats clean. I use Optimum Power Clean at a 5:1 dilution, OPC is a little on the pricey side....you can buy Meguiars D101 for around 20.00 a gallon and make 5 gallons of it at that dilution ratio. The trick is keeping them protected between...

    Exterior Hand Washing

    Thanks for the heads up on that. So far, the SunJoe is holding up well.....but with these things, you never know when they will decide to quit. The fittings on them are garbage, and I upgraded the hose to a KobraJet from Obsessed Garage

    Exterior Hand Washing

    I know a lot of guys use the Greenworks, as well as the Karchers.....I doubt that the specs that SunJoe publishes are accurate....I just know that it works okay for washing. I've seen those swivels....definitely a purchase that I need to make. These electirc pressure washers are inexpensive...
