  1. I am trying to spruce up the old gal. The seats are vinyl. Since I dont want something that would come off on clothes, I am leaning toward leather conditioner but not sure. Suggestions??
  2. X2!! We need to be able to buy more of those towels... I bought the gallon/16oz/WW combo. I tried it out the day I got it. The stuff works very well, even on bug guts but there is no way I am gonna be able to use just one of those towels to do my whole crew cab dually.....
  3. I disagree with the comments about the Adams GC and Stoner's being on the same plane.. I have both and have used both.. The Adams GC is much easier to use and IMHO leaves the glass clearer... I do have to say though, I am kinda disappointed in the yellow MF towels Adams is selling for glass... This seems to be one of those rare cases where the Adams product is not an improvement over the competitors.... Prior to my GC order, which included a couple of the yellow MF towels, I had always used the cheap, light blue window MF towels from Wally World.. I still have those towels and have found that the two seem to be virtually the same in texture and feel (unlike the obvious differences between the other Adams MF towels and the competition). Not only that, the Wally World glass MF's are less than half the price and have worked just as well on the glass (with the Adams GC, of course!)... Just my $.02.. Your mileage may vary.....
  4. I have one and use it almost daily, provided all I need to do is take off a light coat of dust. I can dust off my dually with it in about 2 minutes, whereas, using DS takes maybe 15.. If I have a heavy coat of dust, I won't use it though...
  5. On a thin layer of dust, my California Duster is all I usually need... I save the detail spray for moderate amounts of dust... But I guess that is partly dependent on your definition of thin and moderate....
  6. Ok, so somebody else asked this but it was never answered, can you wash the white drying towel with the blue polishing towels?? So far I have not, but that ends up meaning I am washing just the blue towels together and the drying towel by itself, which seems like a huge waste of water to me.....
  7. No vette here either....... I usually drive my 03 F350 dually but I also own an 05 VW Jetta Wagon TDI and a 66 Mustang.......
  8. I kept some of mine.. I use the old microfibers for cleaning the engine compartment, exhaust tip, etc.... Basically places I would not want to use the good Adams MFs.... I use some of the waxes on my camper. Even though the camper is new, it is 39' long and I am too cheap to use that much of the good stuff on it........... The rest of the waxes and things I gave to my daughters... At the rate they wash their cars, they may never have to buy wax in their lifetimes (certainly not while they are single, anyway! LOL)............
  9. Thanks everyone!! I am pretty excited about it and looking forward to a warm(er) day to put it to use.........
  10. My wife gave me a PC and the 1st gen machine essentials kit for Christmas!! I am psyched!! Now I just need a nice day (yeah, right! This is winter and I am in Missouri! LOL)........... Just had to share my good fortune!! Merry Christmas to all the members here!! May you get stuff you really want too!!
  11. Thanks! I was pretty proud to get that one.....
  12. This is me. (Gotta click on the pic to see it full size)
  13. Those companies are not saddled with the same UAW contracts (and if memory serves me, some are not even saddled with UAW workers at all). On top of that, they haven't been here long enough to have a bunch of retirees to support. Those two things right there are big reasons why the Big 3 (do they really still deserve that moniker?) are in trouble. Frankly, IMHO, the unions need to go. In the distant past, they were necessary due to the untenable working conditions some factories put their workers under. Thanks to Federal regulations such as the Fair Labor Standards Act and OSHA, those things are now gone and with them, the real need for unions. When you think about it, the unions have gotten some ridiculous things out of GM, Ford and Chrysler.. As an example, no where else can you draw 90% of your salary while you are laid off.
