  1. Congrats Nick, it's about time. Now Bandit will have a new buddy.
  2. Not enough, I'll guarantee that.
  3. I got this in the mail from the dealer. I LOL'd.
  4. Yeah the biggest problem with well water is the lower pressure it runs at. I also think that it's why until I found the Adam's nozzle that most firehose nozzles are useless at my house. One time when our well pump died we ran a hose through the woods to a neighbor's house that has town water and even through that long stretch of hose the pressure was higher than our house normally has. As far as the hose leaking, it's really only annoying when it's cold out and the cold water on your hands is uncomfortable.
  5. Bumping an older thread, is there a "minimum pressure" required to maintain this seal? Mine leaks when pressurized while I'm using it. It's not constant, and usually just an intermittent dribble, though every now and then it will squirt out a little bit. We do have well water though so our pressure isn't as high as some.
  6. I eventually figured the wax paper thing out on my own, but I did send an email saying that you guys had forgotten to include my applicator. I was then asked: "Did you open the jar?" "No." "Check in the jar." "Oh, there it is."
  7. I'm glad that Adam's is always looking to improve their stuff. I'd already transferred my three polishes to self-cleaning bottles for this very reason.
  8. Yeah, that wasn't a coincidence. If only I'd been able to get a green 500mL bottle for the Glass Cleaner instead of the red. And though the Green Wheel Cleaner is clear, it has green in the name so I figured it would get a green bottle.
  9. I bet you never did that in California. PS: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFZG8KQJni8]Shenanigans - YouTube[/ame]
  10. If you ask nicely I'm sure you could get a couple labels thrown in with your next order. You can also peel the labels off existing bottles and reuse them, which is what I did with the 4 oz Glass Cleaner.
  11. I've transferred all of my commonly used sprays to Kwazar bottles. The double action trigger makes them especially nice for dispensing clay lube, and the nozzle can be adjusted from a ultra-fine mist to a straight stream.
  12. Don't believe me if you want, but there's a second set of threads inside the funnel that fit the smaller size.
  13. The funnels already fit the 4 oz bottles, unless they've changed.
  14. Thanks Dylan, I was just curious. I didn't really expect it to be the same, but like you said, SPF 35 is still really good.
  15. How does the UV protection compare with Leather Conditioner? Leather Conditioner states it "contains premium UV blockers for SPF 65 protection" while the new Total Interior Detailer states it has "special UV blocking agents." Is this also SPF 65 or is it a lower rating?
  16. Did it come with authentic fried chicken grease stains?

    Chapman Mfg.

    While working on my supercharger project I needed an offset screwdriver, and I realized it would be a lot easier if I had a ratcheting offset driver. In my quest to find one, I came across Chapman Manufacturing. Located in Durham, CT, they make a bit ratchet and various bit kits. They're just as dedicated to the American-made philosophy as Adam's is. Here's a quote from their website: Since I believe it's better to have a tool and not need it, than to need a tool and not have it, I went ahead and ordered their Master Kit even though I'll probably never use most of the bits. It comes in a nicely organized hard case with a "Made in the USA" sticker proudly displayed on it (more on this later.) At the core of every kit is their twenty tooth ratchet. To be completely honest, the mechanism is nowhere near as nice as my Snap-on Dual 80, but to be fair that's not really an apples to apples comparison. For something this size it's totally adequate. The bits slide through the hex of the ratchet and are knurled no the end so that you can spin them with your fingers. Back to that sticker I mentioned, I think one of my other cases in my toolbox got jealous because as it dragged over it, it tore off half the sticker. On Friday I emailed Chapman asking if I could order just the sticker. I got a prompt response saying I couldn't buy one, but they'd gladly mail me one for free on Monday. Today I got this in the mail: To sum things up, Chapman is a small American company, dedicated to American jobs, and their customer service is just as amazing as Adam's. What's not to like?
  18. I always laugh whenever anything claims to be the "World's Best." Besides the fact that "best" is often subjective and what's best for one might not be best for another, by claiming to be world's best it implies that they've compared it to every other option available. There's only one authority that I trust when making claims about "in the world," and that's these guys: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpDdQaS73eM]The best quotes In the world - Jeremy Clarkson - YouTube[/ame]
  19. My dad had called awhile ago and said turn on the news. This shouldn't happen anywhere, but Boston is a little close to home. Like you said, crazy...

  21. I can't answer for him, but I made my own by cutting up and bending wire coat hangers.
