Ouch!

In case you use a pot/pan on the stove with this plastic bag trick, make sure the plastic bag never touch the pot/pan, otherwise the hot pot/pan might melt & puncture the plastic bag.

Great DYI! Does everyone know griots makes this ready to go? AG has the line, but not the stick. Give AG a call. I am sure they can get it.

Griot's Garage gave me the idea for my paste waxes. I bought these off Amazon some time ago. They're kind of cheap, but they worked out.

Pretty messy. I like the glue stick idea much more.
