  1. Re: School me on using a windshield treatment like aquapel, and longevity of wiper blades

    My cars are garaged outside, 24/7.

    I've typically had very good luck with Rainx conventional, but this last one only lasted 6 months, and so now I'm thinking I should add to my repertoire. 303 is...
  2. Re: School me on using a windshield treatment like aquapel, and longevity of wiper blades

    Rick, I have heard quite a few folks here at Autogeek and elsewhere use 303 on their blades. Do you just wipe it down and walk away, or do you soak it in a bag full of the stuff? Sounds like a lot of...

    Re: Good second-rate MF drying towel

    Folks, just to be clear, if someone is going to mention a cheap MF towel that is not sold on AG, please don't post a link. I do want to respect the forum rules. The AG forum is a great service for...

    I went ahead and did some more toothpaste, and then applied isopropyl alcohol a few times, and then went ahead and re-applied the clear coat. Right now (an hour old), it does not look bad. It...

  13. Are slightly crumbling wax applicator pads bad for the paint job?

    Re: >g/m2 is better, for microfibers?

    FWIW, I sent an email to Autogeek store support about this. The entire text of their reply is as follows:

    Hello,

    >g/m2 is better, for microfibers?

    Is it that the more grams per square meter, is better, for microfiber towels?

    A year ago, I bought the Cobra Supreme 530. Recently lost it, so I need to replace it. Instead of one large 24x36...
