    Lol!

    Same here.... I loved the 16oz bottles, but Menzerna discontinued theirs when they went to the ugly labels, and most vendors stopped carrying the Rupes.

    Most regretted detailing product purchase-50162bc6-1617-4cba-8244-bec6491cba52-jpg

    3 years ago I'd just purchased a new car, listened to a family member who got suckered into buying this at a gas station where the company had put up a tent. They did a demonstration on his car and he was mesmerized............ so I bought it

    A month later I found Autogeek and realized how crappy this can of compressed crap was.......

    That's funny. A couple of years back, these ding-a-lings were set up at my local gas station as well.

    When I pulled up to the pumps, I see this (lets just say "Rep") quickly walk over to my truck with a dirty rag and pull the cap off of this can of crap like he was going to demonstrate it on my fender.

    I stuck my head out of the window and said "If one molecule of that crap hits this truck, you're in for a really, really bad day".

    He took the intended message and backed off. Then he said "Looks like you already used it"

    Yeah, ok brainiac. Lol
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    I had the same problem with a couple EagleOne clay mitts. Had I pulled them quickly I would have destroyed them. I took my time and managed to save them.

    I think that’s a thing with any of the clay mitts/towels. I’ve seen in other threads where people talk about turning the mitts inside out. I store my Griot’s mitt face up in a big take-out Tupperware style container I got from a Mexican restaurant. That way nothing contacts the clay surface even if I put stuff on top of it.

    My griots handheld synthetic clay met the same fate, sat in the sun for less than an hr and melted. Totally ruined.
