    Re: Homemade (Sort Of) Wash Cart W/Pics

    That wouldn't work for me. Impossible to see the grit guards with all of the suds in the bucket (Sara Evans song). The rinse bucket gets suds in it too.

    It looks like the same sponge. If you click on "2 new from $2.40" on the Amazon site one of the sellers is Vanguard Wholesale who is the same seller on Ebay. They sell them cheaper through Amazon...
  4. Re: New! Carrand Brush & Shine Tire Dressing Applicators

    I'm glad AG started carrying these. I did a short review on them about 6 weeks ago after seeing them OTC. It seems others also like using them or even paint brushes. Works for me.

    I have tried many tire dressing applicators over the years including foam, terry cloth and even microfiber applicators and none of them seemed to work that well. They are always messy and didn't seem...

    Re: Review: Metro Master Blaster

    It's 220 volt and not AMPs and usually sold overseas in countries where 220 volt is the only thing available.

    If your wanting to know if it has more power then I don't know, but I seriously doubt...

    Re: Extension Hose For Master Blaster

    This is the response I got from Metro Vac. :xyxthumbs:


    Thank you for your email.

    You will not be able to detect any loss of power when extending the hose another 10 feet. If you choose to...

    You may have exceeded the rating for the outlet and/or the contact points may be somewhat corroded creating resistance and heat.

    Re: Metro MasterBlaster 8hp vs Leaf Blower

    I never said that speed (velocity) wasn't important but that CFM was more important for blowing leaves. You don't have to believe me but you may want to take a look at this or do your own search....

    How long did you leave it running?

    Re: Metro MasterBlaster 8hp vs Leaf Blower

    Think about a very windy day in the fall maybe 35 MPH winds. That's a relatively low speed but a lot of air moving. Watch the leaves blow.

    Re: Metro MasterBlaster 8hp vs Leaf Blower

    When blowing leaves you need a higher volume of air (CFM) because the leaves move with the air but air speed is not as important. For example, Stihl's most powerful backpack blower (BR600 Magnum) is...

    I use mine with the step stool facing the vehicle instead of the sides towards the vehicle so I don't have to twist to wash or detail the roof. The stool is very sturdy so I don't worry about it...

    The Werner platform is a nice idea but it wouldn't work for me. I'm 6 ft and my Tahoe is very tall. I can't even get the middle of the hood or windshield without a step stool. I first got a two step...

    Black and Decker also makes DeWALT power tools. Does that mean DeWALT are not good tools?
