I was just trying to see a silver lining in this if it was a dealer who would send you his bad cars...I guess that's kind of a mixed blessing.

I guess I skimmed over that, I didn't get that "nitro and caps" was what you note, I thought it was some other "mod con" that I was unfamiliar with. That and the wheel locks are pretty bad, as you...

Oh, this was from a used-car dealer?

Yeah, I don't know what the "limited quantity" is that's coming to the US, but I guess this is to be expected, just like the dealers used to mark up the Indy pace-car replicas. That protection...

Don't apologize. As an old boss of mine used to say "the only stupid question is the one that doesn't get asked". That's what these forums are here for.

I actually have something work-related this might be great for, but it's coming from Amazon UK and it's $26 a bottle. I found another place, Autoplicity where it's $10+ a bottle...with $125...

Is it possible for you to post a picture of the 2 you haven't dressed yet? It sounds like it could be that you didn't get all the mold release off of the tires.

So that stuff actually works? If anyone else is wondering he's talking about Meguiar's Wash Plus+

Those were sad days for F-Body engines...especially after the peak of the '78 6.6 T/A. Did you see my Corvette mag edit/question in my previous post?

I thought that Cross-Fire engine only had 165 HP? Or am I thinking of the 305 version they put in the F-Bodies?

PS Did you buy that special book that C/D printed on the '84 Vette? It was the...

C'mon Klasse, you can look at a car from 1982 and tell me the engine options, the HP for each, the EPA mpg, and how many quarts of oil it took (with or without the filter), but I've got you on Sonax...

Ha ha, that's exactly what happened when I bought that 303 tire cleaner, it was discontinued before I even tried it.

No drama, it was mentioned in passing at the Optimum forum back in November, it was all "secret" until then.

Garry was very active here before he started his own line. I think his first product was a cord clip.

Yes.

Alright, everyone seems to have missed (ignored?) my bombshell about TurtleWax Rinse Free Wash & Wax from a few posts back; from the Optimum rep on the Optimum forum in November:

" Ironically,...

It took a long time to be accepted here, and you could argue it still hasn't been. Oddly, waterless is more accepted--I think rinseless is counter-intuitive, or just too foreign a concept for most...

I (almost) always use a rinse bucket with rinseless. After using a rinse bucket for conventional wash for so many years, I just couldn't put my wash media back into a dirty bucket when doing...

So do you use the edge of the pad for getting into tight spaces?

Forget the gages, I want to see the car!

Is that the way you look at it? I always looked at it as the machine didn't get bogged down by a thick pad, so you could use thick pads which allows you to use the edge for tight spaces. I was just...

Don't be telling me I have to join the Blower of the Month Club

He was saying he hadn't been here for years. I saw him over on Autopia and he mentioned he tried to get in here and couldn't.

Bunky has also gotten locked out of here like Chilly did, I sent him this thread and the one where Chilly got back on so he can try some of the suggestions.

Holy cow that was filthy, nice work!
