I needed a set of jumper cables for my new car and these had good reviews and were at a good price.  They have been used a few times already and do what they are supposed to - no complaints there.What I will say is that 12 feet really isn't an ideal length.  Sure, if you pull up front bumper to front bumper they are plenty long, but a lot of times you will be beside another car or can't get really close.  Because of this, I would recommend something a little longer than 12'.Great brand - get 16' version though.
These long cables work fine for my truck, but the quality seems a little on the shabby side. For the money I was not expecting 200 dollar snap-on jumper cables but these seem more like what you would see at a chinese knock off shop like harbor freight for 30 bucks.
Can't comment much on these since they have not yet been used (I will come back and update my review is I find any issues after first use) ... but they are built solid, nice tough big hard clamps and love having a long cable so I never have to move cars around or anything if needed. I bought these to have in my new truck since you always need cables ... but another reason is for when I tow my travel trailer and we run the batteries with no shore power they may die after a couple days ... if you are in need a quick small recharge they are the perfect length to pop my hood, run the cables to the back of the truck and hook up to the batteries that are on the tongue of my travel trailer ... running the truck for 30-45 minutes with this nice large gauge wire connected from my battery tot he trailer battery will give me a bit of a charge if ever in a pinch and I have no shore power, solar, or generator to recharge.Bought the bucket boss 06009 jumper cable bag and it fit this 25 footer Perfectly!!!It has no use and is a waste of money right now ... but will EASILY pay for itself the first time you need it ... always be prepared! :)
I purchased the 12' feet long cable set and they arrived in a retail cardboard box with handle, which could be used as a storage and carrying case for these cables, although I will not need to store them with the carry box.  These are high quality long cables of high grade materials and I believe worth the price I paid for them.  They will store in the back seat storage compartment of my truck easily.  Recomend.
These Jumper cables are heavy Duty, Yet easy to Store. I keep them in one of my containers on my delivery vehicle. They are high quality. They are 4 gauge cable, so they are perfect and long enough to Start are Utilimaster Diesel trucks when are batteries are run Down. There are more expensive cables and even more sever duty use cables. these are perfect for this type of vehicle in an Emergency. The cost is reasonable as well. With 25 feet, you don't have to get real close to the other vehicle. you can pull up to the back and or side and just run the cables under or down the side of the vehicle.
bought these for my k2500 suburban plenty of length front to rear. i ended up using them right out of the box as i for a dead battery in my truck. they worked great. several people have complained about the clamps. they worked well for me and i had no issues with poor connections. cables are well made.
these are good enough to get most motorized vehicles up and running, for semi and farm equipment, get solid copper.
The Coleman Cable 08665 12-Feet Heavy-Duty Truck and Auto Battery Booster are great, heavy and fit perfectly into the Arsenal 5888 Cable organizer.  Hopefully i don't ever need to use them but better to be prepared than sorry.
I have an old car, Its bound to need these sometime. I got a set after I gave my old ones to my boss whose truck was acting up. These are long (20') and heavy duty feeling. Usually I'm giving someone else a jump. If I ever have a bad experience with these I will come back and update the review.
I seem to use jumper cables at least several time every year; usually on someone else's car. I've &#34;rescued&#34; a few strangers in parking lots because I keep cables in my cars. The 20' length is a safety feature; you shouldn't have to lay these cables across an engine bay to reach a battery. Aluminum wire? Well, these are consumer grade. They'll get the job done at reasonable cost.
I'm one of those guys who stops and helps people when they need it.  While not a pro recovery guy I use my cables more than the average person.  These fit the bill just right. Strong clamps with a long cable that stays pliable in the cold.
It is hard to find pure copper cabled jumper cables.  The add for these gave me the confidence that I was getting just that.  After arrival I noticed the plated copped aluminum wire :(.  Not a deal breaker as they are well built and will most likely do what I request of them.
These are an insurance policy for my Land Rover.  An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.  These are heavy weight and appear to be solidly built.  As I haven't used them, it's difficult to talk about function.  That being said, I'm happy enough with the construction to give them a solid 4.  You get what you pay for, and this is certainly worth it.
This product serves its purpose. I use it for hauling canoes to and from our cabing. If I would have had time I could have made this myself for about $30. It is very sloppy if you don't secure it with ratchet straps on each side back to the truck. Works good though if only going short distances and moderate speeds.
Hitch extender is good for Kayak transport and allows me to secure slippery kayaks to bed, with minimal effort. There are rings on Tee, allow straps and Bunge Cords to effortlessly secure boats to bed.  After securing Kayaks in place with Rope and cords, this method of support and tiedown of ends of Kayaks just makes sense.  Good product, Well made and painted with good coating for corrosion resistance.  Stores easily or hangs from hooks on Garage wall, though it is somewhat weighty.  Yo lil' mamma will struggle to move it, but that's why you have one! Also mounts to support cab level or bed rack level loads like ladders. The ladies will like it's slender frame. You yakkers with hitches, should get you one!
Package arrived a bit ragged but it was all there, easy to install, takes less than 5 minutes, works as described. We used it on my F150 crew cab truck to haul my wife's paddle board. Would suggest to anyone looking for a product like this.
This was exactly what I needed for transporting my fishing kayak in the bed of my F-150. Easy to assemble and works great!
I bought these to haul my two kayaks.  Works great.  I would have given 5 stars, but it does not come with any reflectors or padding material.  Also, the flag it comes with was missing my first order, Amazon sent me a new one, but the flag is real cheap...just a piece of red thin plastic.
I have owned trucks for many years and gotten by with long lumber though not without some problems from time to time. I originally bought this for use with my kayaks which are 14' long to carry them in the back of the truck with its 6.5' bed. Instead I have been using this extender at least 3 times a month to transport long items.The two pieces fit one inside the other and the overall length is short enough that I can store it behind the seat of the truck until needed. The tubing is heavy enough gauge to support the rated load with no flexing. The two pins needed to attach it to a hitch receiver and to connect the two pieces are provided. The cross bar as multiple holes so I could adjust it for the height of the bed of my truck.There are end loops to use to tie a load and secure it to the bar. The center post also works well as an attachment point for lumber and pipe.I saw similar racks selling for more than twice as much that provided often less strength and no more versatility than this one. Usually after I have tried something like this I see things that I would improve in the design but not so with this bed extender.
This is a must for anybody who wants to keep their car clean between washes. My car sits outside, in parking garages, and old sheds. All of them seem to dump tons of dust on my poor car. This model comes with the wood handle. Others out there have a cheap plastic one. Read the directions on the cover. You're suppose to let it air out after shipping. It has something to do with the wax on the brush. It also will tell you not to worry about it getting dirty. In fact its suppose to work better as it gets dirtier. The duster will work even better if you put a sealant and/or wax on your car. You'll find that you can pull a lot more material off your car. The duster will easily remove pollen, dust, and any other light coating of material. It will remove the dust from hard water and rain deposits, but you'll still see the marks if you look carefully. Buy this product. You're call will thank you!
this product does what it is supposed to do, but, I am not real happy with the quality of construction.
I would not buy this product again. It does what it should but If I had to do it again I would just stick with detaling microfiber towels from Viking/Cobra.
I own the Original California Car Duster and it works very well.  It is great for touch up cleaning in between car washes.  It is true what they say about the more you use it the better it cleans.  If you use it a lot it will start to turn black but it will start cleaning better than ever.  It is great to wipe light dirt and dust off your car and makes it look like you just waxed your car.  If you take care of it then it should last for many years.
Like most car detail enthusiasts, I never liked to see 3 hours of detailing work destroyed in a couple of days of driving and parking. With this brush, my detail jobs last longer. The brush is gentle on the clear coat but it does sweep the dust away, leaving water and and bird droppings behind.For best results, I recommend that you clay clean the car with a good car clay and wax it with S100 car wax every few months. Then using this brush, you can maintain your car in show room condition for a long time without having to wash it.
Takes the dust off my car without leaving any streaking that some report with other brands. Just don't press real hard.
Really the best car duster out there in my opinion. Used others and they are cheap and fall apart easily. This one really gets the job done. Had it for almost two years now. Too bad I can't find where I put it :/
I've been using one of these for years and I'm on my second one. This duster works exceptionally well and lifts the dust without dragging it around. I will NOT make a filthy car that hasn't been washed in weeks or months look clean. You must either keep your car in a garage, or use a cover like I do, and dust it daily to keep it looking clean. If I wash, clay bar, and wax my car I can go two months or perhaps more without washing it again, as long as I keep it covered, dust daily, and wipe it down weekly with an instant detailer. The fibers are impregnated with a paraffin wax so don't just lay it on something if you don't want it to be stained because of the wax and dirt. Also, if there is condensation on the car it really renders the duster ineffective so make sure it's dry before using it.
This thing is great. I had another one from a different company that broke because the handle was plastic. This is wood and it feel a lot more solid. I have a black car and this takes the dust right off. Great buy! 10 out of 10
The California Car Duster has been so much more than I expected. I keep a good finish on my car and it is garaged year-round. Washing the car was (many times) simply a matter of hosing off the dust. This does a damn nice job of dusting all of the car surfaces quickly and easily. Sometimes I get lazy and the car duster saves me a full car wash. Try it!
As we all know, dust gets over your rides in the garage, and is nice to be able to dust it off instead of complete re-detail!.
Have used a California Duster for over 15 years on brand new and old car finishes, from black to white. This duster keeps a relatively clean, maintained car looking show room shiny and takes only minutes to use. How many things out there can give you a spiffy shine in a couple of minutes?The key to using the Duster is to follow the clear instructions provided. You MUST let it dry out a day or two before initial use. It has a waxy coating on the fibers (all the more reason it DOES NOT scratch the finish) and it has to dry out before initial use. Have read a couple of reviews that claim the Duster scratches, but suspect it is because they didn't let it dry out. The one time I forgot to do that, it looked liked it scratched (scared the daylights out of me!), but it was just swirls on the surface from the moist wax - easily removed. And, if there is moisture on the car's surface, it too will look like a swirl or scratch until it dries.Second, it is is a DUSTER, NOT a scrub brush. Only to be used on finishes that are otherwise clean but have dust/pollen on them. If you scrub with it to remove mud, splotches, bird droppings, etc., it WILL scratch, just as dry rubbing a car's finish with ANYTHING will scratch it. You let the Duster do the work, lifting the dust right off the car. Doesn't just push it around, but actually lifts it off.Maker claims it only gets better with time and dirt, but of course can't figure out how that could be true. BUT, have never noticed any problem with use and dirt accumulation. Tried washing once, which maker says you can do, but seems to remove the waxy coating and defeats the effectiveness. Ya, it may last forever, but I buy a new one once a year - hey it's pretty inexpensive.Be the envy of neighbors, get one of these and be as amazed as they will.
Maybe I don't understand the finer points of keeping your car clean, but it seems to me that whatever instrument one uses to dust their car should not leave behind more lint and strands of fabric than it picks up.
This product is an effective way to remove dust and pollen in between car washes. I have used it for several years without any problems, and recently bought a new one to replace the one that got ruined in Hurricane Irene this past summer (my garage was flooded). Here is why I like it:1. This cleans without harming the car finish or leaving streaks.IMPORTANT: Follow the directions to place this on newspaper for 48 hours before first use. That is to get rid of excess wax that can cause streaking.2. This covers a large area, so the time to clean is reduced.3. This is easy to clean (just shake it out) and works great no matter how dirty it gets.4. This is well made and durable.Note: This is not a substitute for going to a car wash or using other cleaners. It does nothing, for example, to remove water spots or bird droppings. It also does nothing to give your car the shine that only wax can do. But it is a great way to maintain your car in between car washes.
The first worked so well I decided to purchase a second to keep in the car.  Not why, but as advertised the dirtier it gets the better seems to work.  As long as you use as suggested, dust your car, and not try to clean heavy dirt with it, it will leave your car spotless.
Amazingly wipes off dust keeping your car cleaner between washes. If you have a black car, you want to buy this product and use it often.
You can trust that this item works well and does not scratch your paint. I was always skeptical previously and just asssumed these things scratched the car. But my paintless dent removal guy uses one and highly recommended the California Duster to me. He is fanatical about keeping his car totally detailed. And this product works so well that he never even washes his car unless it gets rained on. He just dusts it every morning before he backs out of his garage, and if needed he uses some liquid instant detailer and a microfiber cloth after dusting if he feels like it. It takes a total of less than 2 minutes to dust off an entire car, yet the result makes your car look like you just washed it.I use the California Duster before putting on my car cover so that there is no dust between the car and car cover. If you have a garage, it's quite useful since dust settles on the car during the day when you are out and about and at night, even garaged. You won't have to wash your car as often if you use the California Duster. And dust won't build up if you use it often enough.Before discovering the California Duster, I found that after washing my car, I could only use my car cover for a few days before the car got too dusty to put a cover over. Now I find that I can keep the car dust free and use the car cover for much longer, which in turn means I don't have to wash the car nearly as often.I got the plastic handle California Duster which was significantly cheaper at the time I ordered. Although the wood handle one looks classier and probably feels nicer, the plastic handle one feels plenty sturdy, for the value oriented, get the plastic handle one since it's the exact same brush anyway!I am really very happy with what I paid for the Calfornia Duster and would not hesitate to recommend one to anyone with a car or motorcycle. Just be aware what it is not made for a car that is wet or very dirty. My only complaint is that it is not actually made in Calfornia.
I gave a five star rating because of past expierence using this product.The first California car duster I had recieved as a gift  lasted 15 yrs.I bought a new one 5 yrs ago its still doing a good job and use that for my work truck.t I wanted to buy  one for my wife's vehicle..I like the wooden handle FYI follow instructions about putting it on a newpaper for 48 hrs.It will show some streaks the few times of use.They have to get broken in and it does a great job.I highly recommend this product.
People were complaining about streaks but this works just as good as my 10 year old model it replaced. The handle feels a little cheaper but I haven't had any issues. Then again my car is white and maybe any streaking is harder to see. Just be sure to leave it out on some newspaper for a few days for best results.
I purchased this item for dusting on my Harley. It easily gets into hard to reach areas to keep them dust free. I also have used it for dusting in my automobile where it works well. I would recommend this product to all my friends. I do own the full sized California Duster for exterior dusting and the full size interior duster. They all work perfectly.
The mk4 Beetles have a dashboard made of a ridiculous rubber/plastic material that gets sticky when the sun heats it up.  Why VW chose to use this material is beyond me, but I know that the mini california duster is the ONLY product I've found that can successfully clean the dust off of the dashboard.  It sounds trivial, but this is a really great product for the reason that it achieves what no other product can (or so I've found).
I Love it  . Takes a while to break in until then you may get some wax streaks and not pick up all the dust but within a month it is perfect and like they say only improves the dirtier it becomes just shake off outside before putting back in the case and stuffing it in the trunk or map pocket .
One of the best things I have bought to keep the inside of my car clean and looking new.  I recommend this for everyone.
The dash of my black car is anthracite gray, and it shows dust easily. The California duster is created for either exteriors or interiors of cars and is impregnated with paraffin wax. This picks up the dust and the soft fibers float over the uneven surfaces of the car interior, picking it all up in one swipe.I keep this in the car and once a week I swipe down the interior all over to keep the car sparkling clean. It's small enough to keep handy under the seat.This makes a really nice gift for someone to congratulate them on their new car, or for someone who likes doing their own detailing.
Bought this for my 2013 Evo x gsr. It left red lint all over my dash. If using in the house I'm sure it's fine as you won't notice. But this brush DOES leave red fibers behind
I had a cracked air intake hose that caused the "check engine" light to go on, but a couple days after I fixed it.  I wasn't sure if that was the reason, and if it was, I didn't want to take it to a dealer just to clear that code.This did the trick.  Very easy to use, gave me the code so I could check what it was. Once I found out, I knew it was the cracked hose.  Cleared the message using this unit, and it never came back.  Had I taken it to a mechanic or dealer, they'd probably have told me it was some other problem and I wouldn't have know if they were telling me the truth or not.
this scanner works just like they say you have everything you need to scan your auto. WORTH EVERY PENNY!!
I purchased this Acton scanner 2 years ago when our older vehicle was repeatedly showing its MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp). I was able to clear the code immediately. When the MIL illuminated again later, I was able to track down the problem (O2 sensor heater trouble)and correct it by reseating the connector. Later, I used the scanner to diagnose which cylinder was misfiring. By tapping on that cylinder's fuel injector, I was able to correct the misfiring. Again, the Acton cleared the MIL display.My mechanic uses a more sophisticated (and much more expensive) OBD scanner in his day to day work, but for someone who does occasional maintenance on his own car, this tool is worth the $89 investment. If you paid more, you paid too much.
Actron seems to be a company that makeshigh quality diagnostic equipment. This autoscannertool is very affordable and excellent value formoney. Works very well and is pretty ruggedas I had hoped. The only problem is that fixingthe vehicle based on the diagnosed code isNOT always helpful, sorry. Repairing your car based on thesecodes requires a good understanding of auto repair.For example: code PM001 - Cylinder Misfire. What can a NOVICEdo with ALL that "helpful" information (LOL). Relatively easy to use.I will give full marks for the quality of thephysical device otherwise.
I used to take my car to the mechanics and they would hook it up to their diagnostic machine. If they diagnosed my car and I didn't use their services, the fee was $50. Otherwise, if I used their services it was a free diagnostic but I had to pay for the repair. Now I can self-diagnose my car and instantly know what is wrong with it before shopping around for the repair. I used the Actron CP9135 today when my air conditioner was not blowing at all. I had forgotten that I purchased this a month ago and I called my husband to ask him if I should take the car to our mechanic. He told me to go home and hook this up and see if it can tell me what is wrong with the air. After a dozen or so tries to get the air on, I went inside and got the Actron CP9135 and hooked it up. I then turned the car on and the air worked fine and no error codes were reported. I am not sure if this is true, but my husband said maybe it reset the cars computer? Who knows, but it did save me a trip to the mechanic and it gives me peace of mind to know what is going on with the car. I am going to keep it in the glove compartment for future problems.Update Dec 20, 2007: My car was shuddering a bit at low speeds and stops. I immediately plugged this in and found out that my 6th cylinder spark plus was not firing. Took it to the mechanic and had my spark plugs replaced. Saved $109 off the dealers "diagnosis fee"!
Have you ever felt like your auto mechanic was "Mr. Wizard"?  All the way down to the bad attitude?  Only to find he has a doo-dad sitting somewhere out of eyesight that tells all, like a crystal ball...Well for a reasonable price you can get your own crystal ball.  It might be able to predict the future and track flying monkeys but it can tell you very quickly why the "Check Engine" light has come on.  Big or small you know what might be waiting for you when you go see Mr. Wizard.  Sometimes you might even be able to track down the problem yourself and cut the cost to fix it.I would not go to Oz without mine!
This is cheap and it feels cheap, but it works and thats all that matters. I have one on the floor and two on the ceiling for months.
The price was right and it was delivered on time, however, it was not as durable as I imagined and was a little smaller than it looked to be in the picture.  It was also a little flimsy when extended to it's supposed maximum size.  I would not buy it again as my vents are larger and this is just not adequate for the intended purpose.  However, if the vents were not as wide, it would be acceptable.
I have two vents directly over my living room sofa and although I have lived with them blowing directly on me for a long time, a suggestion by a friend, had me search out diffusers.  I am really glad that I did.The diffusers work great in re-directing the air flow off of me and either into the room or towards the windows.  The magnets hold perfectly on my ceiling vents and the diffusers appear pretty sturdy.  So far, nothing has fallen to "crack me in the head."The diffusers are adjustable so that you can get them to fit even if you have a vent lever or screws that may get in the way, which I do.I am very pleased and would recommend this product in that it absolutely helps.
This air deflector makes the air go to the side.  That's all it does.1. There are 2 pieces and no printed instructions - just the box where you can see how to assemble.2.  The 2 pieces fit together by grooves.  Slide and you can adjust by pulling/pushing to get it to fit on vent.3.  Magnets to hold this on vent.  The magnets aren't strong but - barely strong enough to hold on the ceiling.There's nothing good to look at with this deflector.  It kind of disappears since it's transparent plastic.If this will fit your vent, just get one.  See how you like it and you can order more later.
This air deflector was installed beneath our chest of drawers in the bedroom and is successful at getting the air stream into the main bedroom more quickly. The fact that it can be expanded to cover our 12&#34; wide vents is a plus.
This product did a great job of balancing the temperatures throughout my home by correcting the direction of the air flow. The magnets are super strong and the materials super clear.
The deflector does a good job navigating the air in the direction desired and the magnets reliably hold it in place on a vertical vent in a wall. I am happy with the product, happy enough to order another one!
I purchased this product for my parents to use on a ceiling vent.  They were pleased with the product overall.  It was sturdy, easy to install, and serves the purpose of the purchase.  They said the magnet held on well also.
I put this over the ceiling vent in my bedroom and it does the job. The magnets seemed stronger than those on the one I put in my living room, purchased locally. My vents size required this deflector to be pulled out to it's max length which put it right on the edge of not holding together but it does and it does the job. It has been up there for several day's now and I expect no problems from it.
Five stars for price and for doing exactly what it is supposed to do.  It also seems to be unbreakable in that it survived shipping.  Amazon didn't pack the box very well; I guess taking the manufacturer at its word and the claim that it is unbreakable.  I purchased two of these, both of which came in boxes that were utterly smashed up by heavier items in the box.  Both arrived unscathed anyway, although with one, the two halves had come apart.  It slid back together easily, so no big deal.I am using these on standard HVAC registers in our new house.  In two places we ended up needing to place furniture over top of a register.  We wanted something to direct the airflow out from under the furniture instead of blowing air into the bottom of it.  These do that well, and the magnets have held them in place.  Just slide the sides apart to the width you need and set them down.  Done.  I would recommend them, and will buy more if we rearrange things and need to cover other registers.
I ordered two models of Deflecto vents and both are outstanding.  Heavy duty plastic, large strong magnets on the side and they work perfectly.  Would recommend to anyone, especially since these are impossible to find locally, just try asking for one in your local home depot/lowes, they're never even heard of the product.
I bought my first air deflectors (this same model) 20 years ago from Lowe's for my 4" x 10" floor registers. I've stepped on them from time-to-time and have never broken them. However, I did break one recently when I moved my sofa - not the deflector itself but one of those little tabs that hold it together in the center, so I'm back to buy another. I wasted a lot of money prior to purchasing these unbreakable ones with the other type that don't flex and that break easily. The magnets are very strong, when I lift these up for cleaning, I pull the entire metal register out of the floor. The magnets are strong enough to hold tight on registers that have several coats of paint on them, too.
I'm using this to secure the spare tire on my utility trailer. It has a nice thick cable and it's not too long like a bicycle cable lock. Tubular locks are not my favorite, but overall this device seems like a pretty good deterrent for the casual thief. I did notice that the ring on one end of the cable was drilled out way off center. Maybe not the best quality control? (See it in the pic I posted.) I'm pretty happy with it overall and would recommend it without hesitation.
The Wrangler spare is held on by three lug nuts, the other holes are covered from the inside by the mount so you can't get this cable thru any of them.  The only way is to drill a hole thru one of the other two holes and thru the mount.  This takes the simplicity out of using this cable lock, obviously.  But if you're willing to do this, it just takes a few extra minutes and then the lock works great on it.  I'll probably also add a locking lug nut to mine for added theft deterrence.  A cable lock isn't foolproof but it gives you another level and at this price why not?
I added this to my spare on my boat trailer. It was plenty long and built well. Not much else to say.
This works perfectly and sets my mind at ease with all the light fingered individuals out there ready to lift your battery, propane tank and whatever else they can get their hands on..
It is perfect to secure your spare tire to tire carrier or bumper. Easy to use and sturdy. Is not a eyesore, and seems well made, i highly recommend this to keep thieves honest, it wont guarentee a determined thief wont steal your expensive wheel/tire, but when the thief see's the steel cable wrapped through the wheel, it won't be so much a snatch and grab. Some piece of mind to myself. I run 31.10.50 x 15&#34; wheels (over $350 each wheel/tire x 5 = $1750), with a Smitybilt tire carrier, the 36&#34; cable was plenty long enough.
This lock will only suffice to keep honest people honest.  It is far too easy to just cut the cable.  It is however a good deterrent.  I still would recommend it just for it's deterrent aspect.
This is just what I was looking for,  perfect size for the spare on my 90 4runner.  Looped it through the spaces in the wheel and locked in the back.  Nice for the added security.
This lock appears to be nearly identical to the old masterlock design.  That one built up rust inside the lock mechanism, so this will probably do the same. It is a few mm's shorter than the masterlock and barely clears my curt hitch holes, so you may want to try before you buy on this one.
this is a very nice stainless steel design.  Mine was a bit longer than necessary so I put a few O-rings on the pin to keep it from rattling.  The rubber cap covering the key hole could be a better design to fit more securely but I'd buy it again.
Considering this is made in China, it is a quality product, too bad all my locks are keyed to the some number
So far I like this lock set up, I live in the Four Corners area of NM, I hope to not have the rusting problems some reviewers have had in the wet slushy climates.
man it's hard to come up with a title for this. and it's a mixed reviewIt works.  It's metal, strong, rust-resistance (it's not a grade of rust-proof stainless as there are already spots from road-salt), but given the narrow space where it fits, it's difficult to get the locking end on and off.  It's hard to get a good grip on it,  even with the knurling on the ends.  But the ends ARE small enough so there's no interference with other hardware.  The hitch on my truck is just wide enough outside that there's almost to end-play on the lock shaft which makes getting the end on even more difficult.  Takes some getting used to.  I don't think there's a better product out there though, which makes this worth the price.
We use this when we'll be on the road (more than 250 miles). We go to Maine every year from Florida and I do most of the driving at night when a cleaner windshield is nice to have. I mix it with distilled water and their 2 in 1 glass cleaner. While on the interstate I rarely need the windshield wipers if I clean the windshield well before heading out.
Although the treatment does a good job treating the windows, I have found that removal is not that easy. You have to work at removing the residual haze. I usually have to wait two days to remove the haze entirely.
Been using these since the 70s.They simply works. Read the instruction.But may require frequent application , depending on the weather and wipers usage.The coating does wear out with use and by the sun
I really appreciate the Rain X in a light drizzle or mist, when the water seems to disperse by itself with minimal windshield wiper use. When you apply before the cold weather, though, it helps prevent ice from sticking to your windshield, which is just great. I also like to use the product on the back window, which doesn't have a wiper, because it keeps the window clearer. Follow the directions--let it dry to a light haze and wipe it off with a microfiber or paper towel until the windshield is clear. I'm sure you'll like it.
This is the original product.  Really great stuff.  Works so well; when rain hits, you'll be so happy you applied it.  Rain just sheets off; you don't even need wipers on.This package includes a LOT of product.  A huge improvement from the small, single-use packages they used to make (or maybe they still do); this is a much better value.The only downside to this product is the seal; there's a little spout on the bottle top that goes up and down; you flip it up to dispense the product.  It seems pretty flimsy, and doesn't seem to seal very well when closed.  I have a feeling some of it is going to evaporate out of the bottle, and at some point some will spill out if the bottle is ever turned on its side.  Other than that, great product.
Before I applied this to the windshield of my car, I noticed that the wiper blades, although new, left some streaking on the glass, and it could be a bit of a challenge to see outside especially when it rains hard and the raindrops magnify the lights of cars or the streetlights. After application, the wiper blades no longer left streaks, it became much easier to clearly see outside and the water beaded and blew away. At times, it may look like there is no rain on the glass when driving through rain at night.It works so well that I purchased another bottle when my first one began to run out.
I can't say enough about the quality and benefit of rain-x for treatment on my windshields.  my cars and bikes love it.
i used it on my windshield and bathroom shower door.it works for like a week. for the amount of time it took to apply and polish off, it should last longer.make sure to wear a filter when applying indoors. this stuff stinks.
This product takes time to put on right but it is worth the effort.  When you are done you will not believe the results when you get into a rain storm.  Your windshield glass is so slick that the heaviest rain just slides right off without using your wipers.  Your visibility is improved dramatically and you can see what is going on around you.I use it often but especially when I am going on a long vacation drive.  It improves your driving safety in inclement weather and helps to keep your family and you safer. I use it on the outside of all of my windows of my vehicles.  It is good for rain, sleet and snow and even reduces the amount of bugs that will stick to your windows.  The treatment lasts for about 3 months.  It is only recommended for glass.The further you can see the better your response time to stop in case of an emergency.  I strongly recommend this product as doing a great job!
This is my first purchase of rain-x. It seems to work pretty well. I do wish it lasted longer. A few weeks after application it seems to be wearing off unevenly. Also it was difficult to get a good buffing on the windshield after the first application. Once it rained the wipers seemed to even it out though.
great stuff to have when it starts to rain.  Don't need it too often in So Cal, but when it does rain, it helps a lot with visibility, especially if you haven't gotten around to buying new wiper blades during the rest of the year.
This was recommended to us as a way to ease keeping our windshield clean when pulling a trailer. However, on first use it did a lot more for us than expected. The first time it rained after I used RainX was on a cross-country trip last week, and amazingly it almost completely eliminated the need to use windshield wipes even during downpours. Water drops still land on the windshield, but immediately rolls off whenever the car is moving, leaving a very clear view through the windshield - much clearer than even with wipers on high. For those who have flown small planes, the effect is much the same, and why such planes don't even have wipers. (At air speeds, wind pushes raindrops off the windshield very nicely all by itself.)The only time we needed to use the wipers in several days of rain and snow driving was when passing trucks, as those covered the windshield with clouds of tiny droplets that were hard to see through.A week later, I'm noticing the windshield no longer clears itself at speeds under 40 MPH, so it may be due for another treatment, but still stays nicely clear at highway speeds, and is very easy to clear at lower speeds with a single pass of the wipers.
Fairly easy to apply and works really well. Have never used any other glass treatment to compare it againsts but this does the job.
Rain-X 800002243 Glass Treatment- 7 oz.It's simple, this stuff works great when applied correctly, the rain will slide right off!
works great ....you do not have to use your wipers as much...water rolls right off
Product definitely works as described.  Have used this in the past on all of my vehicles (3 over the last 16 years) and it does a great job of clearing your windshield/windows of rain and misting.During light rains or when the roads are wet and mist is kicked up from the tires on the vehicle in front of you, this does a great job of keeping the beading moving up and off of the windows to the point that you don't really even need your wipers.  In moderate or heavy rains, it does a great job of keeping the water beaded up so vision isn't as reduced as it is on untreated windows.I docked one star though because i've found (thru multiple vehicles and uses) that my wiper blades doesn't seem to last as long after it has been applied.  I've also spoken with multiple friends who reported the same issue.  I haven't used this in conjunction with the RainX wiper blades so maybe that isn't an issue if you use them, but it is def noticeable with other commons brands... From the cheapest ones to the premium ones, it seems to affect the life of them all.That being said, i now only apply to the side windows, moonroof and mirrors of my vehicles. The beading the product causes helps keep the rain off which minimizes water spots as well.  Another plus especially in the spring when pollen is rampant and not washed away with constant &#34;April Showers&#34;.
Rain-X makes terrible wipers, but you don't need them if you put enough of this on.Tip: don't put it on the side windows, unless you want all the rainwater rushing up into your car whenever you crack them open.
I never used this product, but have been told by many who have to try it and I wont be disappointed. I applied with a paper towel after each wash and I can say when it rains the water seems to fly off the windshield as if it were being pushed off with an air dryer. Each application seems to last very well for about 2-3 weeks or in between each wash. Try it and you wont be disappointed.
Bought this for my spare tire on my utility trailer. Very inexpensive (cheap), flimsy and loose fitting. Seems like it can be broken off easily. Will probably end up getting a cable lock. This device doesn't really give me a sense of security. I suppose for only five bucks you get what you pay for.
Master Lock 262 DAT Chrome Lug Nut Style Spare Tire Lock is a simple to use and reasonable sturdy product.  Good value
More for slowing down an amateur thief. Lug nuts that require a special tool are more secure. Had to grind away a bit of the shell due to interference with the wheel casting shape.
I purchased this lock for the spare tire on my trailer.  It seems like it could be broken without too much effort, but should help deter theft by being there.
Works like it was intended for.
Just installed the lock on my trailer nose mounted spare tire. After installing, it obviously works as described in the ad description. So far, I am satisfied with the item.
I bought this to look in my winch on my Jeep. I just took one of the bolts out and put this in, I would thing if they really want it I'm sure they can get it out, this just makes it a little harder and if you install two they will have to work twice as hard. And for the price you can buy two..
This is smaller then I thought for a funnel,yet it is useful more then I thought it would be.  Such as oil in the lawnmowers.
This is a small funnel, It will work for just abought any task.Small and easy to store in a zip lock bag to keep it clean.
This inexpensive funnel is pretty handy for certain jobs.  I use mine for fuel additives such as Seafoam, which is a good product but the container is difficult to pour into most car/truck fuel tanks.  A nice little funnel for the price.
This is absolutely one of the best four and a half bucks I have ever spent. I originally thought I would use it to pour gas into lawn care devices but when it arrived my wife had a need for a funnel to use in the kitchen. She scrubbed it thoroughly and it worked fine for her. In addition, she said it looked like one of the old time hearing aids. Amazingly, she was right on target. By holding the small end to my ear I could clearly hear her, the TV and the telephone. To my utter surprise all sounds are clearly amplified. I never would have believed it if I had not experienced this for myself. There are some frequencies which I have some difficulty in hearing now that I have "matured". My wife's voice is one of them so this is a handy aid when I want to hear something that she does not clearly elucidate. For convenience it even has a loop on the wide end where I can insert a chain or rope to hang around my neck. The uses for this item are nearly endless and I will order another one to serve the original purpoe for which I bought this one which is for pouring gas and oil.This is truly a multi-purpose tool and at a bargain price.
Hard to complain, it's a funnel, it's a good length and width for awkwardly located fills. Has a guard on the top for spill prevention, feels sturdy and durable, and the price is more than fair. What's not to like?
I got this to change oil on my 2005 Honda Odyssey and it made the job of changing oil very easy.  I was able to get nearly 4 1/2 quarts of oil in a couple of minutes with out any spill.  It's also multi purpose!  Very good value for the money paid.
This thing is smaller and skinnier than I thought, although it is very long.  It is awkward for filling my car engine oil because its so long that the bottom of the funnel hits the valve heads before anything else, so its unstable to just sit in there.  I have to hold it to support it with one hand while i fill the oil with the other.It does have some good uses though, as it is just the right size to fill my motorcycle transmission oil.All in all, the funnel is solid, no complaints on the product quality, but I think next time I will purchase in person so I can really gauge the size I need.
Ordered several funnels. One for my Auto trans oil. One for filling the Toyota van anti-freeze via the top hose. Faster than filling via the radiator cap. One for the shampoo consolidation in the house.
Works great in refilling oil in my generator and lawnmower!It even has a lip on the top so the oil won't go out of the funnel.The only problem with funnels is, you never know how full the chamber is,and always need to remove the funnel to look. Someone should invent a meter on the funnel, that helps in overflowing,and an end valve in case the chamber is full, to prevent it from overflowing.But until then, this funnel will do just fine!
It feels like it's made of great quality stuff.  It's very sturdy and not flimsy like some other funnels out there.  I recommended this funnel In conjunction with this item &#34;RhinoGear 05068 3 piece Funnel Set&#34;I use this to top off transmission fluid in vehicles.  Comes in very handy!!!
A dollar? I stole this. hehehee
While this is a simply plastic funnel, its uses are allot. My biggest use is with  power equipment like my riding lawnmower; the oil cap is near the bottom and a difficult place to fill. The funnel is perfect also for smaller engines like my Pressure Washer - etc. Hope this helps.
Perfect funnel to pour oil into your crankcase..  This funnel can be used for other purposes of course,.. but I bought it for pouring quart oil into my crankcase.
I love this funnel more than others that I have because it is the only one that stays in while I am pouring. The long spout keeps it in. I highly recommend it. I use one for automotive and my wife uses one for pouring in the homemade detergent into barrels.
I'd previously purchased this w/o having an actual use for it. Turned out to be practically custom made for putting oil in my Subaru inverter/generator.
What's to say?  It's not very large.  It works perfect in my 2003 Chevy truck to add a Fuel Additive into the fuel tank!!!  It should work for Power steering and transmission also, at least on Car/trucks that's not hard to get to or down load were access is bad.  The design helps keep you from spilling when your poring a fluid into it!  For under $5, not a bad deal.  Hang it up out of the way when done with it.  It's able to fit into your Transmission Dip Stick tube, so it has to be small enough, so you can just dump a bunch a fluid into it at once!!!  It's small and doesn't hold all that much.  For what it is, I like it.
This is a GREAT funnel for what it is desinged to do. ADD FUEL ADDITIVES to your gas tank. No drips or spills on the side of your car. (LOOK at the picture) For other applications, maybe a larger or different style funnel is better. Price SHIPPED TO YOUR DOOR tax free is VERY GOOD. ($3.36)(The list price $23.88 probably should be $3.88) :)I like it and would buy it again.
Got this for oil changes on my Victory Vision. It works well but you do have to poor slow as to not overflow the funnel. It is a good length and offered an easy tool for use with my motorcycle.
Priced right and Just right for the longer reach needed for todays cars and trucks. Buy two or 3 they are so handy.Makes it easy to fill hard to reach items such as mowers UTV'S etc.
I love this funnel, it has so many uses. For example I can pour a liquid into a container with a small opening with great ease. I can hang it on a wall and it will wait there until I need to pour another liquid into a container with a small opening again. Let's see a hammer do either of those things. My hammer never stays put. You can reason with this funnel, it has an open mind so to speak. Others may try but they all fall short of the splendor that is this funnel.
In these cases, when all you need is a cheap plastic funnel it all comes down to price. There are no frills here... you pour things through this into other things... end of story.If that's what you're trying to do, I highly recommend this one
I got sick of using my &#34;Common&#34; funnel for different uses, trying to clean up an oily funnel so you can use it for Sea Foam is just dumb when you can get these for a little more than $1.  The size/length is perfect for gas-tank additives.  I purchased 3, I keep one in the garage to pour Sea Foam into my cara/motorcycle/snow-blower/lawnmower.  And the other 2 I keep in whatever vehicle I'm currently using, in my &#34;just in case&#34; pack.Great product.
great little funnel, long narrow output is good for transmission fluid or other stuff similar with a small opening not easy to get to.
This I use to replace the transmission fluid on my Lincoln Town car.  The tube is quite narrow and way back at the firewall.  The long skinny tip of this funnel reaches all the way back there and fits well, preventing a real mess.  Can't beat the price either.
Bought this along with a No Spill 5 gallon can to use for track days. THe length is excellent and gets down into the filler of your car. It also fits in a 1 gallon freezer bag so you can seal it up and put it back in the trunk when done without smelling gas or getting it on your trunk carpet. Two improvements would make this a 5 star funnel. 1) It should be slightly upturned at the opening to catch gas as it backs up 2) The diameter of the nozzle should be larger and it easily could be given the tank inlet size - would allow faster filling.
The size measurements provided are a bit disingenuous. The funnel is 10" long but the section that comprises the tubular section is only 6" long. It states that the funnel is 4" x 4" but in reality the opening for the funnel is 2-1/4" in diameter at the widest point.It would work to put a quart container of a liquid into something but for any larger container it is going to be worthless.
We have cars with full of electronic gadgets so they consume significant electricity, even when car is being driven. Almost every week we get no start due to weak battery. I have an external car battery charger (old). It is bulky to setup to charge cars overnight. Also it does not have any detection, so the battery can be continuously overcharged, which will eventually damage the battery (as multiple battery experts tell me). Never learned our lesson as we had 3 quality batteries purchased and replaced - each within 2 years.After reading all the great reviews, I bought one of these on-board charger and installed in one of the car that frequently dies (even with new battery). Now I can just plug in to the wall when car is parked each night, and unplug in the morning before the commute. No need to check if charging is complete if not driven for days! Also it will reduce the risk of not able to start the car to almost none.I will be buying another one for our other electronic gadgets-heavy car...  The next convenient thing is to find a good retractable power cords that can either be installed in the car with the on-board charger, or to the outlets for which the charger will be tapping power from.
Tested on a discharged battery and it charged it over night. Great for your boat/bike or anything that you need to charge over night for use the next day. If your looking for a charger that charges in 10 mins. this is not the one. Great product, and shipping. Thanks Amazon
This product works extremely well and is extremely reliable. Anyone complaining about the short cord didn't do their homework. The pictures clearly illustrate a short cord. A 12 foot cord would be ridiculous on a car mountable charger. I like to use those 9 inch lighted extension cords sold atwalmart and Amazon.com, These give you a lighted indication of power when plugged in. My charger is under hood mounted and has seen over 110 degreeswhile running highway speeds and charging in summer heat. Frankly I'm amazed it still works 5 years later. I will buy another if it quits working.
Very useful charger. I mounted it in the engine bay near the battery and it works as intended.Only downside to this charger is the length of the plug cord. It worked well for my application though because i mounted it in tandem with a flush-mount sealed power port on the side of the vehicle.It allowed my battery to remain topped up and warm enough to start at 35 below zero like it was no big deal.I will be ordering a second for an other vehicle.
have this permanently hooked up to my car battery.  when car sits long time, I just plug it in and works perfect.  have 1 for each car, never fails.
Bought one for my car about four years ago. Still using it so got one for my riding mower. Mounted it on the mower so I just plug in, which is great in the cooler months.  I'm in south Louisiana and still have to mow in late November but infrequently, so this keeps it fully charged.  I've had the one o. The mower for a couple seasons now and it's still ticking away.
Auto battery life can be significantly lengthened with the use of a trickle charger. Significantly. I put this one into my 4X4 to keep my Interstate battery at maximum readiness. This is a solid heavy duty device and is no toy. I mounted it securely under the hood next to the battery itself and have a heavy duty plug hanging down -- just behind the front bumper -- to connect up while out in the driveway. The lights/indicators on this model are very nice and it keeps my battery at full strength. If you have two vehicles (or more) and you don't drive one of them that often -- definitely get one of these. You will never have another "oh no" moment -- when turning that key in the morning. Highly recommended.
They fit perfectly onto the vehicle and or trailer wire when not in use. With the retaining loop they stay with the connectors when you are connected vehicle to trailer.
These fit perfectly and are easy to use and keep your connector clean and dry when not in use.  Great buy.
Well they work! Easy to put on. Might not fit some ends that are not rounded. (to bulky to slide in)
If you want to get the most out of your towing lights harness or you truck harness you need these covers...I will never again go without this product...fit tight doesn't fall off with road vibration...Buy, Buy, Buy...
These work perfectly on both ends of the connection for my motorhome and trailer.  They protect the contacts very well.  I highly recommend them.
Good way to cover those vulnerable connectors for my trailer.  Works perfectly for the 4-pole connector and should keep problems away.
They keep the contacts clean and lubricated however they are both the same and not a matched pair for vehicle and trailer.
The 4Wire Flat Replacement Dust Covers help keep the ends clean from road dirt.
I am using this on a Curt receiver and the length is perfect.  It appears to be of high quality construction (with a bit if weight to it) and this design prevents any rattling on bumpy roads.  My only complaint is that it gets rust buildup inside the lock mechanism after a few months, so you need to clean it periodically.Update:A great deal of dirt has found its way into the lock mechanism so I guess the fit is not secure like it should be.  Also it is now rusting which I find a bit odd in all stainless construction.  I see the head design has changed based on the new picture here so maybe the issue is fixed now.
I don't need to do a long review to convey the basics that this pin works perfectly to secure your hitch to the receiver.  There's a little anodized flare, and a decent little rubber cap to keep the grit out of the lock mechanism and it's stainless steel to boot!  Nice quality item.
This product, in my opinion, is well designed. The materials are top notch, and it is easy to access with the key for removal and installation.I can't imagine anyone taking the time to defeat this lock to steel my hitch ball. When the boat is attached and locked to the ball I can sleep better in a hotel room knowing the boat is secure.I've notice a few times the rubber cover over the key slot has come off. I'm not sure if I just didn't attach it well, if I bumped it, or if it came off by itself though. Even so I don't think the rubber cover is a necessity.
Good news1) Fair price2) Fits Curt 2" trailer hitchBad News1) Key use a little tricky2) Plastic keyhole cap cover doesn't feel real snugPractice locking/unlocking with the key about 20 times before you start using this so you establish some 'muscle memory' on how to turn the key and remove the locking hardware - it's not like your house key. Not sure how long before the plastic key hole rain/dirt/mud cover is going to stay attached.
I was looking for a receiver lock that was easy to use and give us the protection for our hitch.  We typically dont unhook the hitch after arriving at the site and always worried that someday someone might remove it.  Now we dont have to worry and my wife is much happier!!!The rubber cover for the key area keeps dirt away from lock mechanism.  Plus it is a Master Lock...enough said.
This dogbone lock is very nice and well buildt. It is perfect for use on any car or truck if you are going to remove it after each use. But it is not for use on a motorhome reciver, were it is going to be left on for some time.The problem is ! The protective rubber cap that covers the key entry, fits loosely. The cap will not stay on to protect the key entry slot. Any little bump in the road, and off it comes !  Dirt and water gets into the lock mechanism, the key will not go in and you will not get it off with out a cutting torch.
Works as advertised and the price is very good. A bit hard to lock and unlock but not enough to matter. Hopefully I'll never find out how well it protects the hitch from theft!
It works and is much easier to lock/unlock with the key facing you than if it is pointed to the side.
I'm a huge fan of Master products & this does not let me down.  Very easy to use low profile lock to protect your trailer hitch attachments.  I love the bright blue tip.
I recommend these to anyone who has bitched about drying their car.I used this product and was blown away buy how well it absorbed and better yet the wring out was so easy,3 folds and a twist and 90% of the water was out!I bought one of the Chemical Guys Waffle Micro fiber cloths and it was awesome,but when you go to wring it out the shear size (25&#34;x36&#34;) made it very hard to get a good wring out.Their towel did almost 80% of my car, 2 from those would be an alternative.I give this product A+ and it is worth every penny!
I love this product works just how I expected to work..Dries my car faster than just using towels. So far I think it will last a while,made from good quality materials
I know these have many many uses but I just use it to dry my car after a good wash.  You will be surprised by how much water this thing will hold.  You keep it damp in the tube for storage so it's always ready to go when you need it.  If it dries out just wet it again and it's good to go.  I wash this in the laundry and it cleans up nice, so easy to use and care for.
I was looking for a new chamois to replace the old worn out one I had.  I ran across the Absorber, and the reviews wore great on this product.  So, I decided to give it a try.  I'm SO glad I bought it!! It really is the best chamois/absorbent drying towel I've ever seen!! After drying your car (or whatever you are trying to dry off), just toss it in your washing machine. It comes out looking brand new again!!  You really can go wrong---buy this product!!!
I find it a bit humorous that reviewers keep saying &#34;it doesn't absorb water&#34;.. then they state later on that they have to ring all of the water out all of the time. Are they ringing out &#34;air&#34; ? Of course is absorbs the water. It is just not good at drying the car for the final wipe. I use a towel after using this. That's worked well for many years. I tried a &#34;waffle towel&#34; and it was worse than the absorber. I tried a special auto towel, but that did not work as well either. I think that the absorber used with a towel is probably the best combo to use. I suppose you can turn on the leaf blower, but if you get any dirt in there you may do a number on your paint.
There are a few things to know about the absorber to get the most out of them.  First, before using, soak in warm water, this makes it more absorbent.  Second, keep it clean.  The wort thing you could do is have a dirty chamois and drag it across your paint, this will introduce maring of your clear coat.  I wash it on gentle cycle with a little distilled vinegar then air dry.  When storing, get it as dry as possible.  Ive had them get moldy in the container from being too damp.
I used one of these for the last 5 years and is the best I've used to dry my cars. really is outstanding and the best for this task.
When reaching for a towel to dry that vehicle - grab an Absorber.  It works as good as the real thing - at a fraction of the cost!  We have a piece of one of these in the kitchen...priceless.  Don't waste your money on Sham-Wow or other junk..get a Absorber and be satisfied.
Do your research people, this thing is the best for drying your car. It helps so much when washing your own car. Don't use rags that will drag dirt & hold onto rocks to scratch your paint. I can't go with out this thing and I truly stand by it.Highly recommendVery easy to use and saves you timeFast and easy shippingLove it
Just trust me here; get this and the Meguiars drying towel and you'll have your car completely dry and streak free in no time. This soaks up the bulk of the water and the other gets rid of all the mist. Great product that I've been using for years!
This chamois works great. Very absorbent and holds a lot of water. Do not use anything else to wash your car.
Every time it rains, my glass patio table accumulates puddles of water. Before purchasing this, it would take several large towels to clean off and dry. Now, with this chamois, all I do is wipe the entire table one time, wring out the chamois, than wipe the table again. Within minutes, the table is not only clean, but dry. This is definitely worth the money.
This is an excellent chamois!  I have used many different kinds, in fact my last purchase from Amazon included this one as well as a fancy one with a waffle pattern design.  Let's just say that this outperformed that other one and I am confident in saying that this does just as good of a job as a leather one, without the process of breaking it in.  This is a great deal for the price.  Great for after washing your car or after a heavy rain.
The Absorber is made of polyvinyl alcohol which allows it to be super absorbent and reusable.  It comes in a plastic tube which serves as a holder for the Absorber and I would suggest you store it in there since the Absorber should be stored moist so it does not break down and stiffen.  The product really does absorb a lot of water and is the best car dryer I have ever had.  After you wash the car run the Absorber over the car and 90% of the water gets removed.  When the towel gets saturated, just wring it out and start drying again.  It cuts car drying time at least in half, maybe more, plus the effort to dry with this towel is less than with a standard towel or chamois.  If the car is in the sun or if you have hard water or if you are meticulous about your car, it may be a good thing to run a microfiber towel over the car after you use the Absorber to get the rest of the water off and to ensure no spots/streaks get  left behind.  When you are done, just wring most of the water out of the Absorber and roll it back into its plastic container for next time.  This is a great product for car drying or for cleaning up wet spills.  I highly recommended it for those purposes.  I am hesitant to recommend using it on your body since it sits in a moist, bacteria-friendly environment between uses - but as a car dryer it is terrific.  I comparison shop a lot before buying anything - hopefully you can benefit from my time investment and review.
For those of you who are wondering "do I have to keep the tube forever?", the answer is "no".  I threw my tube away the first week I had it and three years later it still performs like a champ.  The chamois will dry out and become hard if left exposed, but once you wet it again, it becomes as absorbent and pliable as new.The other reviews are correct.  This thing holds an astounding amount of water for its size and weight and is excellent at streak free drying of automotive surfaces.  Once saturated with water, it wrings out very easily and it ready to pick more back up.  After three years mine has held up very well, though it is a bit discolored from the dirt it has picked up from my car over time.This is the only drying chamois most people will ever need.
Not sure what all the 1 star reviewers are doing wrong as these dry my cars dry streak and spot free. You see some micro streaks when using this but they evaporate. Using the same two for over 15 years stored in their containers. No mold or anything... best drying material I ever used and I tried them all.
I have several of this, I use them for all sorts of things. They last for many years, I use them on job sites to keep cool, just dip it in cold water and instant cooling.We also use them for keeping the dogs cool as if they weren't already cool looking.DO NOT BUY ANY IMITATION This is the best!
I just finished using this for the first time today. Lately I'd been using a flexible squeege to begin drying my car then follow up with a chamois.WHAT A DIFFERENCE!! Rarely does one come across an item that works exactly as advertized. This one does! Now I use the chamois for the tires and wheels and the Absorber for the car. Unbelievable how much water that thing can suck up and hold! Try it. You'll love it.
I have used these for over 10 years as well as natural sheep skin chamois. This works very well. If you wring it out (edges too) it doesn't streak, leave water behind, and works about as well as a natural chamois. It will also last for years if left damp and stored in the plastic container, (nope don't dry it). Then why use a natural chamois?  Well for me there is something about the shine left behind with a natural chamois. I'm 69 years old and have used those since a teenager. Now that maybe just a memory lane thing since this works just fine. If you don't want to dry, and as I do stretch and soften a natural chamois after use, then get this. It works very well, plus I have never found anything synthetic, that works as well. (Believe me I've tried a lot different ones too. Haaa)  I do recommend it. Hope this helps someone.
This product is obviously manmade but is equal to or better than any 'natural' chamois I ever had.  It's just marvelous.
I purchased this based on the recommendation of a friend. It works well, and if you are very certain your freshly washed car is free from all debris, you will likely not cause any scratching. However, if you pick up some rogue sand granule or some other debris, you could cause clear coat damage.After watching an episode of Drive Clean and seeing them use microfiber towels in the same manner, I made the switch. It takes a little longer, but the microfiber towel is marginally safer on your precious paint job and if you're auto obsessed, it may be worth the extra time. The microfiber are also easier to clean, just wash and dry and you are on your way. This thing will get mold unless you let it dry out completely and is a pain to wash by hand. I still use it around the house and it works well, it just no longer gets anywhere near my new car.
I liked the absorber because it did not leave any streaks on my vehicle.  The material was sturdy and not flimsy.
I have had one of these for years and loved it. My wife didn't know what it was so she thought it was old and garbage.
I love drying my Evo X with these. They get all the water off and leave to streaks. Its a must have when detailing your car
Works great for drying the car quickly and easily when its not hot enough out to do it quickly, and you don't wanna have to polish out all the water spots afterwords (Black car). This thing absorbs so much water you won't believe it till you use it, and it just takes a beating and keeps on going. When I first used it I was afraid I was gonna rip it by twisting the water out too hard, nope, just keep wringing it out until its dry and continue on.A little secret to using it, at least I've found it to work better this way. When drying the car, lay the Absorber out flat (unfold it across the surface) and then grasp it at one end at each corner and drag it slowly across the car allowing it to absorb all the water it comes into contact with. This works especially well on horizontal surfaces, but still good enough on the vertical ones as well. This practice also helps to prevent scratching of the surface when small particles get trapped between the chamois and the paint surface and then your hand comes and pushes it right into the paint.Little warning, when it comes, don't smell it. Mine reeeeekkkkkeeedddd! But I just rinsed it out and the smell went away. Yes it is true that you can put it right back into the tube wet (Well to get it back in the tube, you must, because you can't roll it once it dry), but I like to leave the top off of the tube to allow air in there to dry it out before I close it up and that musty gross smell comes back.Long story short: Get it, you won't be disappointed.
I've been using these things for several years and I buy a new one about every year or so. The Absorber is PVA, so it needs to stay a little wet because it gets very stiff when dry. Once you get used to it and how it works, it's great. There are a lot of PVA drying towels out there that are cheaper, but believe me, this one is superior in thickness and quality. I bought a cheap, generic one at Wal-Mart and it started tearing apart within a couple days.I use mine to wipe down just about anything and everything you'd use a normal towel for. It won't get something as immediately dry to the touch as a towel since it is slightly damp to start with, but evaporation quickly takes care of the rest. The main advantage over a towel is that it works like both a towel and a sponge, depending on how wet it is. It's nice and cool to the touch so it doubles as a cooling cloth in the summer heat. When it gets too wet, you just wring it out. When it gets a little dirty, soak it in a little soap and water and wring it out or throw it in the washer (just make sure you don't put it in the dryer, it comes out of the washer slightly damp, just like it should be stored). Every few washes, I recommend using some bleach in the wash or soaking it with some bleach to help keep it like new.
I was prepared to write a &#34;sham-why&#34; review because initially this thing acted like a sheet of nonabsorbent rubber, but once it started soaking water it seemed to 'open up' and began working pretty well.  It wrings out easily and leaves no lint, which is pretty rad,  because the old bath towels I was using before made my car fuzzy.
I've never used a synthetic chamois before, so I'm not sure how well they are supposed to work.  I washed my minivan the other day; and I'd say it took one swipe on a panel, squeeze dry, then a second swipe to completely dry the panel.  The Absorber is a nice, large size.  It dries my car better than old bath towels, and it left no water spots.  I'm very happy with its performance and would buy it again.
Pros:- works better than chamois in absorbing water.- does not produce streaks when drying cars  - Spot free!- I cut it to half and quarter sizes - makes it great for the kitchen tops, sink and bathroom- works great for kitchen spills- available almost everywhere- cheaper than chamoisCons:-You have to store it moist in the canister or it will dry stiff as a cardboard. (Dip it on water and it is good to go again).-Storing it moist promotes growth of bacteria and micro-organism. Forget about using it on your body as a towel or drying your plates, pots and utensils.
Awesome.  Just used this for the first time earlier today.  I've owned a natural chamois but haven't used it in years so I threw it away.  This works great.  Washed my car and then used a Water Blade on it (def another recommended product) and then used this on all the corners and tight spaces.  Soaks the water up very well, rings out a lot of the water and stores &#34;damp&#34; which means little to not maintenance to maintain.  Covers a lot of area too I was surprised once I unfolded it just how big it was.
This thing will hold a lot of water. just be sure to keep it moist inside the original tube. I will buy more of these. Just need to watch the price and buy low.
I have a black car so i need to dry it to avoid spots.  this works great.  holds a lot of water and takes me few min to dry whole car.
Don't why people like this so much.  It's not bad.  I like genuine leather chamois so much better because it doesn't leave streaks on glass windows and it cleans up the water and any leftover dirt on the car better.  This product can get moldy because you have to store it damp in the plastic container it comes with.
I find it much easier to use this chamois over a towel while drying a car.  The absorber works well with soaking up water then with a quick squeeze your back at drying.  The chamois does not leave cloth and lint on your car like towels and old shirts.  I also use a damp chamois to wipe down the interior dash and seats of my vehicle, which works very well.  I would also recommend a soft water blade to use first after rinsing your vehicle to do the large areas and windows...then go back over it with the chamois.  It will cut your car drying time in half and work x2 as good. You are supposed to keep the chamois damp so when I am done I just put it back in the case and it will stay damp until my cars next wash.  It is supposed to extend the life of the chamois.
I've tried numerous synthetic drying towels and this one is ok.  This one seems to collect a lot of dirt which is not good for your car to wipe with.
This dries my car very well and stops water spots from forming.
Keep all those sham wows. I have used Absorber Chamois for years, much better than natural ones or any other brands.
I purchased this cloth with the intent of drying my car after I have washed it. I have very hard water and when I want my car to look nice I have to dry it or I get little hard water spots all over the place.Drying my car with "The Absorber" does solve that problem and it does absorb quite a lot of water. It squeezes out easy and stores quite well in the container it comes in. I have used it a number of times and am generally happy with it.I should mention it is does not perfectly get every last bit of water. But it dries to the point where the residual water evaporates in a minute or so. I consider that pretty good and my goal of not having water spots is met so I'm a happy camper. I would buy another one if I needed it :)
this has been a must have in the detailing word. This holds SO much water and comes with a nice container to stow it away.  Quality and works excellent, does not scratch.  NEVER use another brand!
I'm using it on thy 38' 5th wheel and it's working fantastic. Goes on very easy and comes off the same way. Buffs up to a bright shine that's silky smooth to the touch. You can't go wrong with this product. I'm buying another bottle right a way.
I bought this to try on my travel trailer with a gel coat finish. It worked very well, went on easy, wiped off clean, pleasant odor, removed stains and marks. I enjoyed using it compared to a lot of other products I have tried over the years. I have found that Meguiar products generally are quite good. Price is not great but reasonable - I was satisfied and will purchase this product again. Oh yeah, I should have mentioned that I applied by hand with terry cloth towel and removed with microfiber cloth.
After reading reviews and opinions on other waxes, I just stuck with what I`ve used before and I`m not disappointed at all. I did however apply this wax with a buffer. After cutting the hull with Flitz, I followed through with Flagship premium wax and this 15 year hull looks incredible!
Very good finish top cost or fiberglass RV & Marine products.Goes on easy comes off clean.  I have used a light weight polisherWhen doing our camper.Last for months.  Good product.
TYPICAL OF ALL OTHER MEGUIAR PRODUCTS......GREAT.....REALLY PUTS A SHINE TO MY BOAT...LOOKS LIKE NEW NOW...EASY TO APPLY AND EASY TO BUFF....GOES A LONG WAY AS WELL...ENOUGH TO DO MY 18' BOAT SEVERAL TIMES OVER....GOOD PROTECTION...
I use this on my RV and it shines great...  With something that big, I also recommend a top quality random orbital, like Griots 10765LNGCRD
They are a bit slick and need to be sand blasted or something. I would not buy these for any Tire size 15 inch or smaller. Get a 4x4 , cut it, use it.
I bought these to use when parking our travel trailer and did not want to spend a fortune for something that does such a simple basic job. These do what they are supposed to do, appear to be solidly built and durable, and do not add a lot of weight while hauling them around. They also don't take up much storage space.
We use these for our camper.  They are light weight, easy to store, and worth the money.  I feel that they are pretty durable and don't anticipate them breaking.
I have been watching these for a while. Came in at Wally World, little over half price.I have used them for years but they DO have an Expiration Date on them... Safety in case they dry out! Excellent for Wheel Chocks in the Garage Too. It grips the concrete and Larger Tires very well."BatmanDSM"
This is NOT the HEAVY DUTY wheel chock that Camco also sellsCamco 44492 RV Super Wheel ChockI bought this not paying very close attention to the details.  It's a nice wheel chock but I prefer to have a matching set of 4.
match my existing wheel chocks.  A little too big a radius on the curved side for my wheels, otherwise would be a 5-star.
These Camco RV Wheel Chocks are heavy grade injection molded plastic and work well to secure my 5'x10' enclosed trailer in place. These have ridges on the bottom and where it contacts the wheels, which adds extra gripping ability.We picked up four of these Wheel Chocks locally for a little bit less than offered on Amazon.Highly Recommended!CFH
They did what they are supposed to kept my trailer from rolling away i am going to the Lynx chocks due to upgrading to the Lynx levelers.
I have eight of these things now.  They hold-up great, are dirt cheap and you can't lose them in the grass because of the bright yellow color.  If you abuse them enough, they will show wear and tear, but that's if you abuse them - you know, like driving over them instead of moving them :-(
These are the perfect size for the tires on an rv trailer - 15&#34;. I had some that were too large and didn't fit the curve of the tire so weren't very effective. These fit perfectly and hold extremely well. If you put a loop of rope through the hole, it makes it easier to remove them from under your tires.
Works very well for the cost, I would recommend an attached rope to allow for easier removal from the wheels.
I used this for a while. Though hollow plastic I felt it was designed to hold a camper from rolling and it did. One day I forgot to remove it when pulling out and it seems to take very little pressure moving forward to flatten it like a pan cake so I though my 50,000 investment may be better served with a heavy duty galvanized wheel chock that wont give in and even let me move over it by mistake and let me know its holding solid if I ever did again roll forward over it.
Great ......
A good Made in USA chock.  It may cost about a buck less each at Walmart, if you can find it.There is a hole in the side for a rope to hold one or two together for each side of the tire.  Don't buy the one with a rope. It costs twice as much for the same one chock, NOT two.The heavy rubber  Buyers Rubber Wheel Chock - 5in.W, Model# WC1467A  at $8.99 each at Northern Tools are heavier and provides a better grip on concrete, but they are heavy to carry around.  I use the Buyers' ones in the garage and carry the Camco ones in my trunk.Also NOTE that the Buyer's ones are made in the same place as the expensive Race Ramps Branded ones costing 50% more.  The Buyers ones are nearly identical, are exactly the same size and weight.  The Race Ramps ones have shallow slits cut into the bottom.
I had bought a couple of these many years ago but recently bought a travel trailer so needed 4 more (could only find one of my old ones).  They are now dated for replacement.  After buying these I found them at Walmart for $1.25 less per unit. The Walmart ones were dated a year later than the Amazon ones.
Wheel chocks are a must for every Rver.  This is of particular importance if you use  the tri-leveler or other similar device.
These were advertised as sold in a pair yet only one came.  I will need to order a second I guess.  They also appear plastic.
They do exactly what you want them to and show no signs of breaking after weekly moves and daily use for almost a year.
This is a well built wheel chock. It's made out of thick plastic. I accidentally ran it over with my car. And it held up perfectly!
Bought 2 of these for my 27 foot Jayco Bunkhouse and they seem to work great. Very well made of durable hard plastic. Camper does not move 1 inch once I have them in place....Go ahead and buy a few...Kurt
Need 2 for each side, works well for small pop up. Buy these over ones w/ rope and add your own rope, same choke. These already have the hole for rope. Dimensions given are inaccurate on these two, they are exactly the same size.
Five stars because they are lightweight, inexpensive and have a hole for a rope; tie two together, pull both at the same time.  Ordered four for tandom axle trailer.
works well and holds fast and steady. I am really surprised by the light weight and sturdy construction. Will buy them again for the other things i have.
Just don't plan to pull it out when the tires are resting against it - the grips really dig in and with 2 on the axle and a slight grade they work perfectly.
I bought 4 of these to change the rear shocks on my S2000. They work as advertised.
It's bigger and feels more secure then our older pair of wheel chocks.Holds our trailer in place with no issues. Not much else to say for such a simple product.
Works well, keeps the trailer from moving after disconnecting from the tow vehicle.  These are light weight, compact, and easily stored in the basement compartment
Only fair.  NOT very durable and do NOT fully secure the trailer.  Spend the extra $$$ and get the X-Block and / or the Fastaway (we now use both, Fastway for intiial set and the x block for final lock in)
Larger than I expected and solid feel like. The only cons is the curve is not snapped under wheel smoothly and there is a gap between curved surface and wheel line. So I do not know if it is really working or not because the function of chock is for the accidental circumstances the car slipped back,however, it is not usually happened when the car is put on the parking gear and hand brake is applied.  So hard to say it's good or working, unless the car is really accidentally slipped back and blocked by this wheel chock.  Then you can finally see if the chock is good or not.  But anyway,  it worths that money.
I use these when parking my 30 Travel trailer.  They are well made and strong.  They have been used probably 80 to 100 times now and,while a bit dirty and scuffed from use, they are still in great shape.  They work well in securing my trailer from movement when parked.
I bought a pair of these for my travel trailer. They fit fine and snug up nicely with the tire. While having a lanyard for them sounds tempting, I hate having extraneous parts on my chocks, so I like their simplicity.
I bought 2 of these, one to keep in my truck for road side emergencies and the other for automotive work use at home. The few times I have used them they work well, but just so you know they have a recommended expiration date on them. I think this is due to their intended use as a RV chock, where they would sit in the sun a lot and would degrade. But again they are cheap, and if the worries you, just buy a new one and toss out the suspect one!
I have a ~7000 GVWR travel trailer and bought two of these.  One stops the wheels from rolling in one direction.  That's their job right...and for less than the price of a pack of cigarettes, it's just unbeatable.  If you've got to stop something, chock it.
About what you would expect, not super heavy duty but serve their purpose.  i plan to pick up a few more to round out the set.
The price and appears to meet all our needs.Appears well made and we are happy with the sent product. Thank you.
These are well made, inexpensive, and work great. They are quality made in USA!And they had no shipping charges if added onto an existing Amazon order.
This will be a useful item to have around. In the past I had to carry both an 1 7/8 and a 2 5/16 ball mount in the truck. Too much iron! Now I just change out the ball and I'm ready.
Very clever idea. Had to use on my 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara with a lift kit and adjustable drop hitch. Spinning ball hitches for different sizes won't work in my case because the adjustable hitch height is a solid piece specific to the entire hitch. In order to tow my 2 different trailers I'd need 2 drop hitches. Interchangeable balls is the perfect solution and I have to say these are perfect. They work well and are rated around 8k pounds of towing. Saved a lot of money here compared to my closest towing accessory store.
These things are super cool. Makes having 3 different hitches a time of your life you'll look back at with shame.
If you need extra room for storing this, then is perfect for you; ball sizes range from 1 7/8 to 2 1/2" and change very easily with little effort.  This model requires a slight turn of the center pin to lock/unlock the ball for changing and you need to remember to re-lock it after attachment.
Admittedly I have not actually towed a trailer with this...but it went together perfectly and I have no reason to think it will not perform just fine when I need it to. For a quality item with a well-known brand name attached, it's an outstanding buy, and I'm VERY pleased to have found it.
I have two of them now. The first one I bought about 7 years ago but it wast the tri-ball, so when I upgraded my trailer to the 2 11/16 I needed to buy a new ball.... Or buy another one of these with the triple balls then I would have another shank to mount on another vehicle
Bought this to use in the back of my Chevy Silverado.  The bar feels solid.  The ratcheting system appears solid, is easy to operate, and operates smoothly.  If I had to think of a weakness...if I was the designer of this tool, I would have tried to figure out a way to put the ratchet in the middle of the bar.  When you hold it up to crank it tight, the bar is awkward to hold because it is off balance.  So petty, I know.  I can't comment on how it stands up to weather, as my bed is covered.  Really, I couldn't ask for anything more, especially for the low price!  I may buy a second one.  One high, one low.  Highly recommend.
The &#34;feet&#34; on this bar slides off the truck bed sides and makes it worthless.When the ratchet is extended, the mechanism for that ends up out of arms reach when standing outside the truck.
Nice cargo bar for the price. Easy to use and racheting works good. Careful of those fingers as they can get smashed!
Ok, I was using a twist version of cargo bar that I did not like because it was a little cumbersome to put in. I thought this cargo bar would be easier to place in a lot let time.I hold my tool chess in place in the front of our truck bed. When I went to place this cargo bar, I could not get it tight using the ratchet at the end of the handle sweep. I found I had to rotate the handle about straight out, then give it one or two more clicks. It did slip once while I was adjusting last click. After placing in position I found it was not as sturdy as the rotating bar I was using, but went ahead and left the Ratcheting bar in place. After 200 miles of driving, bumpy roads, hills, ext.... it is still in place and working. I must note that I have a bed rug, and topper. So no slipping would occur so long as the ratchet holds. I would be on the fence to recommend this product. It will work, but not as tight as the turn stile.Update 05/22/13: OK been using for a while now, and find it is suffice to hold a good size tool box on wheels in place at the front of the box. No slipping or loosening has occurred in the 5,000 miles with this product. I would recommend this product, it does what it says, bounced to 4 star.
This is a must have for pickup truck owners.  The bar is easy to adjust and with the rubber feet stays firmly in place.  The ratchet part is very well made.  You can secure this and know for sure that your cargo is not moving.  Have had no problems at all.....
It fits fine on my 2012 Toyota Tacoma Access Cab.  I bought this and the stabilizer bar to keep my cooler(s) from trashing my truck bed.So EZ even a cavemen can use it!Ok, he might have a few cuts while trying!!
These are so wonderful to have in the car in the winter. After getting one of these in another color (but the same brand), I decided to pick up a second blanket for my kids to use too while traveling. Here in Minnesota it gets extremely cold and everyone is always fighting over where to have the thermostat set at. By having some of these travel electric blankets in the car, everyone can keep as warm as they want to.This blanket works just as well as my other one and gets just as warm, just as fast. It works exactly like a household electric blanket does. I was so pleased with how well they worked that I bought some as gifts for people for Christmas this year. They were a BIG it and no one knew they even made such a thing. Finally with these we can all be as warm and toasty as we want to be!
Happy with it so far. Wife likes it. I keep one for a spare in the car in case of bad weather.
it works well, it's well made, but make sure you realize it has a built in timer. If you camp in your van at night and have a spare battery that you use for things like this and expect you to keep you warm all night you'll wake up an hour later freezing. There is another blanket out there that doesn't have a timer for that purpose. But I keep this one in my boat for rides on chilly days when my mom gets cold. And here the timer is perfect so it doesn't accidentally get left on.
takes a while to warm up, ok as the package says give it 10 minutes. warm after 2 minutes, nice after 6, toasty after 15.papers say 4A / 48W, and it comes with a spare 7A fuse for the plug.price was decent, seems to work ok, plaid seems a bit faked but still attractive; hope it will last for a while.
I bought this with a cold winter in mind, being in my car can be cold sometimes after I cut the ignition off waiting for someone.The switch went bad after a month of medium use (2-3 times a week).
This travel blanket is awsome.  My wife loves it. She does not have heated seates so this is the next best thing.  Plugs into the 12 volt power supply
I love putting the top down in my convertible during the fall and even well into the winter. This blanket keeps my girlfriend nice and toasty while we enjoy the drive. The cord is long enough to reach the back seat from the front outlet and the blanket itself is big enough for two people.
Installed this air filter on my 2013 Silverado and immediately realized a gain of approx. 2 MPG. Took about 10 minutes to install.
Packaging was nice as always and shipment quick. Of course this was a drop in so it fit nice and snug for my 2004 Tahoe Z71. Was giving the newly used Z a tuneup so I replaced the plugs, wires, cleaned MAF, TB, cleaned out the filter housing as it had grime inside of it, then just dropped this in. Z breathes better although I would really like to acquire a tube to replace the quiet factory one! Anyways, I recommend the filter as it looks better than factory, and will be used and cleaned for MANY miles to come!
I have to admit that there is a small  improvement in performance. The throttle response is better but not to the point to say that there is a increase in horse power. The truck seems to run a little better and I hope it's just not the change in summer fuels. I wasn't looking for fuel improvement. All I was looking for was better drivability and I think that's what I got. I only have one concern and that is that it doesn't affect the mass air flow sensor ( MAF ) because of the oil that is use on the filter could possibly damage it.
This filter combined with an Airaid MRT helped my 2004 Tahoe make a little more power and sound like it has a V8 under the hood! The filter fit nicely and should provide plenty of filtration for this daily driver.
I've read a couple reviews stating that the sizing could be wrong, so I was a little hesitant to order, but the return policy is simple so I did, very happy with my order.  I can feel increased acceleration on highway speeds. I have a 2002 silverado 1500 8 cyl. rwd.
High quality filter, just like the numerous K&N; filters I've purchased over the years.  Got it from the Amazon Warehouse deals and an awesome price too (about the price of 2 of the cheapest paper filters you can buy).  Fits perfectly in the stock airbox of my 02 Chevy Avalanche.Did I notice any fuel mileage or performance increases?  Of course not...its a nearly 6000lb truck and this is just an air filter.
The initial cost of these is pretty steep but the long term savings ,assuming you keep cars for a few years, is quickly recovered.  It adds a throating sound to your vehicle while delivering much better airflow to the engine than standard throw away filters.  The every 20,000 miles or so cleaning and re-oiling are very easy to do.
It is thinner than the stock air cleaner.  I put this in at the same time as I added a Dynomax cat-back exhaust system.  The truck can stay in 4 cylinder mode longer now, theoretically boosting my mileage a bit.  Having used K&N replacement filters for years, this one did not disappoint.
This one filter has done the job in my 2001 Silverado for 13 years and 225,000 miles. I have never had the heads off, so I cannot comment on the condition of the cylinder walls. Does not burn oil and still runs great. I have not cleaned it as often as I should have. Have only cleaned it 2 times. So counting it being clean when installed, it's been without dirt 3 times in 225,000 miles. No evidence that any dirt ever got through it. Use the K&N cleaner and no other cleaners. Do not use hot water as it can shrink the cotton fibers making the filter look wavy. All of the dirt will wash out with ease. Let dry, I sit mine in front of a fan. Recoat with the K&N oil which is red so you can see that you have fully covered it. Put a thin coat of K&N grease on the neoprene seal and you are ready again. This filter maintains it low restriction to air flow, even when very dirty. I have these in all of my vehicles, not to save money, but because they stop dirt better and allow more air flow. Cars that sit outside sometimes attract mice that chew up the paper air filter and make a nest. Not possible with the oil soaked K&N.
W0W.....This filter fits exactly like the OEM filter But will allow much better air flow to my big V8 & save me sum $$$$$ @ the same time. I recommend this unit to anyone looking for added performance & mileage. A+ &#34;Can't beat K/N&#34;
For about the cost of 3 throw away filters, you get a lifetime filter that provides better air flow.  I was due to replace my filter anyhow, spent a little extra an got this.  It popped into my '07 Altima 3.5 without any tools.  A perfect fit.  There's a decal to add to air intake box so that hopefully future service personnel (Jiffy Lube and the like) won't keep trying to change the filter for you.
I use it in every one of my cars! Fits well and its washable/reuse for the life of the car.
I looked around for a better price but Amazon had the best number! I have one in both cars and soon as I get time I will be building a K&N set-up for my other vehicle as there is not one made for it
My G coupe needed an intake air flow replacement pretty badly after I purchased it (despite the fact I purchased it with only 37k miles) and I already knew about the K&N; air filters and I like how it's a one-time purchase deal, no need to buy again when it's filthy.bought the filter, slapped it on, and it has been working flawlessly for a little over 2 weeks now. I combined the K&N; air filter with the popular Z-tube mainly because I was already going to be in there so I figured why not just add the Z-tube for a bit more efficiency. at this point, I have no complaints, I do feel a slight increase in power in 2nd and 3rd (not a 100% sure if it's all from the air filter or with the Z-tube), and rev noise has stayed the same.
Bought for a 2001 Maxima and it was a perfect fit. I like to keep my air cleaner really clean and this should serve my purpose well... I also bought the recharge kit which is also OEM K&N. Would recommend to anyone in the market for a K&N filter. :)
What is not to love about a cheap genuine K&N; product?  It fit in my car with zero issues and its K&N; so you know its quality.On a nice side note for the men out there,  K&N; includes a sticker to put on the air box that says the filter is a K&N; product and does not need to be replaced.  I only say this because my wife has had people who change her oil try to sell her a new one.  This was a nice thing to see in the package.  They even include a card to put in the glove box with a 1 800 number for a service station to call if they don&#8217;t believe it!I have always put a K&N; air filter in my car and as long as they are around I always will.  Plus Amazon had them for about 30-50% than other places I looked.I have no issues!
the best air filter i'll ever owned. it's more power to the engine the stock air filter is just thick papersK&N; air is way better. now my car can breath better....the best thing is it's reusable!! can you used it over and overreally worth the money. enough said! go and get this air filter.
at 30bux this is a steal! any store sells this for 50 which is so high. K&N makes the best filters and for a drop in this works great. I modded my intake and used this drop in filter and noticed about 2-3 more mpg(thats alot considering i used to get 11mpg on my truck, now i get anywhere from 12-15 no lie!), also makes my engine a bit louder which is a plus i think.
I cant attest to any power gains but I do like K&N's product line. I have a K&N filter in all of my vehicles.
Buy this right now.  I had a performance K&N; filter set-up on my Acura, but for some reason it never occurred to me to put a K&N; filter on my commuter car.  It popped up as a suggestion, and I purchased it immediately.  Right away I noticed snappier acceleration.  At the end of my 22 mile commute my mileage had already improved .5 mpg without resetting the computer.  I am floored.  I am fresh out of a dyno so I don't know if my HP increased, but based on my other two observations, combined with this being a lifetime product, I am ecstatic about this filter.Now, a little story about replacing my old filter with the K&N.;  I thought I was just going to open the air box, yank out the old one, slap in the K&N;, and then go about my day.  WRONG.  Big ol' thumbs down for Nissan making routine task a big undertaking.  If you have an Altima you had better get out your awesomeStanley 92-839 Black Chrome and Laser Etched Socket Set, 99-Piece.  Use your short 10mm and remove the intake hose from where it attaches to the box.  Then you can unclip the front clips, and the lid flips up.  You can unclip the sensor, but I did not.  Thank goodness I do not have to do that again for another 50,000 miles.
First, this filter will NOT give you huge horsepower gains, it might give you minimal MPG gains just by replacing the filter from a dirty, clogged one, but that will come with any filter. I bought this filter because it does save money, money you would be spending buying paper filters over and over again, with this and a 10-15 dollar service kit, this filter will last your vehicles lifetime. There is a trade off though, this filter does not screen out dirt as well as say a "paper" or foam type filter, that is why "off roading" voids the damage warranty. however i never off road, and for highway and street use, this filter is King in terms of economy and durability (it is made of 4-5 layers of cotton encased with a aluminum wire mesh surrounded by hand poured urethane), they mean it when they say it will last a Million miles. This filter earns my recommendation.
I musta spent a gazillion dollars on nozzles from wally world, k-notsmart, etc. I just wish I had bought one of these in the first place! I heard about it from a friend who owns several aircraft and he says it's the best for use around aircraft. I figure if it's good enough for his airplanes, it's good enough for me! Love it!
This nozzle is built like a tank and will last forever from the looks of it and from the 10 year old my neighbor has.I have the bad habit of sometimes leaving my hose water turned on so that I can have instant water at the nozzle.  Not the brightest idea as your hose can burst or your nozzle can fail.A few months ago my neibhgor came by and told me that I had a leak.  I looked around and sure enough, my old nozzle had failed.  My neighbor mentioned, "that there's your problem neighbor - that crumby plastic nozzle you're using."His has been going strong for 10 years.  So I ordered this from Amazon rather than going through two warehouses stores hunting for it.I must say that I'm very impressed.PROS- very solid construction, either aluminum or steel- padded with thick rubber- looks like fireman's hose- smoothly fades from closed to soaker to rain to fan to jet with a simple twist- easy to work with wet handsCONS- noneNow I will tell you that the jet on this nozzle is one of the best I've seen but I'm not going to compare this to a pressure washer, I have one and nothing compares to a pressure washer, but the jet mode of this is pretty darn good.I recommend you get one and I also recommend you close your water at the faucet when not in use.
I really like these high-quality, "fireman-type", and high-output nozzles. They are built VERY WELL and output a lot of water. If you don't want high water output, then don't get this nozzle, otherwise, I would highly recommend spending more money to get one of these rather than the cheaper nozzles. I think it's worth it.
I have been using this for a while now, i like it, its a great nozzle, i can set it to whatever setting i want with ease.  Does not leak while in use and it seems solid in my hands, i think this will last and ive dropped it a couple of times already.  I think it works better with higher water pressure.
I've been using these hose nozzles for years, you won't find a better nozzle anywhere. Don't hesitate, buy a few you will love them.
Bit of a let down here. From all the reviews, I thought maybe my search for the perfect nozzle would come to an end. It didn't. The sequencing of spray patterns on this nozzle is not what you are used to. Sure, it has a unique ability to produce a fine spray and a fire hose kind of effect, but when switching between patterns it passes mostly through various streams of concentrated water that dench anything in its way. If you are trying not to splatter mud, create craters or wash away feshly planted seeds, this is not your nozzle. Maybe it makes more sense on cars.
Maybe they moved to China don't know.  Bought first one ten years (?) ago.  So much better than any other in my life that I sent another to my brother who says the same.  China may or may not lower quality.Bought about three since the first one.  They were copy cats, two I think from HD, junk, total junk.  Felt like they were restricting the flow at any setting.  Poor jet shape or any other compared to original.  Remember I had the old one for comparison which defined "perfect".After several throw aways bought another $20 one from Amazon.  Think the metal part is aluminum in old and new if that matters.  The most recent works just like the old one and on less pressure because the first hose bibb in front yard is ahead of the pressure valve all home have.  Whoops, just noticed in the pic here at Amazon, front nozzle is stainless on both of mine but the colored body toward the rear looks like anodized aluminum on both of mine.So China or not I have old and new and they are equal in performance.  Of the many things in life that never seem to be right this Bon-Aire Original Ultimate is settled.  None have worked better for me and I look no more.  Suddenly my wife springs to mind.................LOL??
Every one of the hose nozzles I've used has failed in a few years.  Except this one.  It's the only one I've left out back over the winter and has survived the freeze thaw and the snow.  I've left it through two winters of snow and ice attached to the hose and it still works great.  Plus it functions so well.  The worst thing I can say about it is it's tricky to fit under some car wheel wells but that's fine for having a functional nozzle that does what it is supposed to do year and year.EDIT: 10/16/13 and I have two of these nozzles and one still stays outside all winter and both still work perfectly.
so i used this to basically pressure wash my muddy ATV. it worked surprisingly well. nothing like a pressure washer but just turn on water and use this and i got 90% of it off. i had hoped for a little more power on the high pressure setting but cant really expect much i guess.i dont know how often ill use it, maybe for playing with my son, but i like the &#34;gentle soak&#34; spray. its much wider and useful than just the hose without a nozzlei would say the best 2 features are 1. the ability to shut it off going either direction and 2. even if its not much more powerful than your typical nozzle there is no holding a handle, or holding your finger over the hose to get pressure. feels like it should last a long time
2 different hoses, totally different results. I typically use a light duty pocket hose to wash my car since it's easier to tote around, but it doesn't flow nearly enough pressure for this nozzle. I switched to my standard 3/4" rubber hose and it was night and day. This nozzle NEEDS a high-volume hose to function properly. Build quality is second to none, but I knocked it down a star because my other nozzles work just fine with my light duty hose.
All of my cheap dollar store garden hose nozzles gave up the ghost this summer. They leaked, sprayed from every angle except the desired one and one, just wouldn't shut off. Cheap Chinese-made Junk! I read the reviews of the Bon-Aire Original Ultimate and it sounded like a take off on NYC's Famous Original Ray's Pizza. However, it was cheap enough so I took a chance. When it arrived, I immediately hooked it up and so far, it's all you could want from a garden hose nozzle. You turn it on or off by turning left or right. The spray patterns go from gentle waterfall to direct stream and all stops in between. I can't tell how long it will last but it looks and feels well made so I give it 4 stars.It could have had 5 stars but, darn, it's made in China. Fairly-priced Chinese-made not-junk!The loss of a star is no reflection on China or the product; just my disappointment that we don't have a hose nozzle this good with a made in the USA sticker on it.
My brother purchased one of these at a trade show for almost double what it sells for here. After I saw it, I had to have one too. This thing is put together very well, with quality parts and good fit and finish. If you have the water pressure, using this will probably allow you to roll a small dog or cat down your driveway (not that you should, but you'd be able to)! Operation is smooth and it's comfortable in the hand. Made in China.
I didn't like this hose nozzle as much as other reviewers.  For the price, I was expecting an amazing nozzle.  It is heavy, sturdy, and looks like it will be very durable, but I do not like the selection of the spray patterns compared to the $5 hose nozzles at home improvement stores.  The rubber areas are comfortable to hang on to.This would be great for washing a car or big jobs like hosing down a pool or screens, but for watering potted plants and trees, this nozzle puts too much water down and creates splashing.
This will be the 773rd review for this product, so I'm guessing that this is not the first one you've read. It's safe to assume you already know enough about how it works. As such, I may not have a lot of information to add, except for the fact that I've had this nozzle for at least five years.  I'm not sure exactly when I bought it, but it was definitely no later than 2009.I've used it consistently over that time, for washing the car, hosing off the patio by the pool, washing the dog, cleaning the pool filter, etc etc. It's heavy-duty enough to drop on the concrete, it just lands with a dull thud from that thick rubber ring around the end, and years of abuse haven't affected it in the slightest.  The stream selection by rotating the outer ring is still as smooth as the day I bought it.Being able to turn it off at either end of the rotation is a nice feature too, less messing with it when you're done using it. I had intended to buy another one for the hose in the back of the house, but instead I've just been switching this one back and forth as necessary.If you're looking through these reviews because you're interested in buying one (why else would you be?), get one.  It's worth the money.
This nozzle is exactly as describe in write ups.  It has a variety of water patterns from full soaking to hard steady stream.  You can expect water to come out of the hose a full throttle unless you reduce it manually.  My first attempt to use it was with a small diameter hose and they are not the best to use for a nozzle that uses a standard hose.  The small diameter would not permit pressure buildup inside the hose and therefore the exit of water was at a much smaller volume than a standard hose.  No big thing.  Then I used the standard hose and the nozzle would at best take the stream over the second story of the house with no problems.  While the stream was not a great as I would like it at least got there thusly making this nozzle super for getting at the upper windows.  Next, I placed the nozzle on the front of a hose end sprayer to test its ability to handle liquid weeder, fertilizer or detergent.  It did far better than the nozzle that comes with the hose end sprayer.  Old happy gardener.  When comparing the price of the unit to other available sprayers of similar quality I would have to go with some of the cheaper ones that are made of metal and not plastic.  Some, however, plastic sprayers are not all that bad and one heckuva lot cheaper than the almost $25 for this nozzle.  While it is not perfect, it does the job for what I specifically want to use it for.  Also, I used it on the truck to clean it and it did a decent job except in an effort to preserve water it is something of a pain to have to screw the nozzle each time you want to cut the water off.  In fact, it is doubtful that this nozzle will see vehicle washing again.
This hose nozzle lets out an amazing amount of water and looks like it could survive a nuclear blast.  I'm extremely impressed with the build quality and the functionality for washing dogs and my car.With my old nozzle, it would take a long time to wash the soap out of my dog's hair.  With this nozzle, the initial gush of water takes almost all of the soap away leaving them squeaky clean.  Same goes for rinsing soap off of my car.It's hard to imagine being excited about a hose nozzle but this thing is awesome.
This is a must have for those with excellent water pressure and volume and a good hose. I highly recommend this.
After reading many of the reviews here, my expectations were probably set too high.  Many purchasers have made this thing sound like it sprinkles water from the fountain of youth at pressures to rival Old Faithful.It is well made and should last many years.  Other than that, it sprays out water prett much like any other hose nozzle I have ever used.  It is a quality product but I do not understand all the raves.
I'm sure all of you out there that love yours really love them.  I have to go with the "So-so" people here.For years I have been a fan of the little 1" brass tip-style nozzles but all of a sudden can't find them anymore.  Isn't that the way it works!?The pressure on the Bon-Aire doesn't compare to those little guys.  (not to mention the price)  You get more water with the Bon-Aire,  but not the great pressure I have experienced from the little tip-style sprayers.  I consider my house average pressure. Not the greatest, but not low, so I figured with all the great reviews here it would work for me with my 3/4" hose.  Disappointed.  No doubt it is quality and looks like it will last forever.  I was surprised  at how large it actually is and maybe that has something to do with the lack of pressure.  There is a use for it for sure, but I certainly would not consider it a "dream" nozzle in the least.  Maybe it works like a charm with homes that have high pressure.  I would not recommend it for those of us with average and low pressure unless you just want a spayer that gives you lots of water and so/so pressure.
Solid piece of equipment, I don't think I'll ever buy the other "garden" variety hose head anymore....WOW I just wrote review on a hose head!!!That saying something
I got this nozzle to try a different nozzle for different reasons.  You can never have enough nozzles for hoses.  It works well, puts out great pressure and you feel like something is getting cleaned instead of just soaked.
This is not a replacement for the amazing griots garage one, but its also a 5th of the price. Works well, takes abuse and seems built to last.
This is a very good nozzle. It allows a good amount of control of the water spray pattern, ranging from a wide fan delivering a low pressure water stream, through to a high pressure, narrow stream. Perfect for cleaning cars (using a medium fan of water to get the car wet and to rinse off the soap, and a high pressure spray to remove road grime from the wheels and underside). It's good for watering plants too, using the fan end of the selector range. If you get it just right you can actually get it to mist too.The only thing this nozzle is missing is a quick on/off mechanism. As it is, you turn it off by rotating the front to one end or the other. This is the same mechanism used to select the spray pattern. This is a design improvement over the original, which only had the off position at one end of the spray selection.The rubber coated aluminum design is very sturdy and will last for years... the last one did. The only reason I had to replace the last one was my mistake... I left it attached to the hose for a few years and either the hard water or electrolysis caused it to become permanently stuck to the brass end of the hose, and it got damaged when I tried to remove it. Lesson learned... I remove it from the hose when it's not in regular use.
This is a very durably built nozzle, with great thick rubber group and a spin that feels really smooth & solid. I can imagine this thing lasting for years.  The only drawback I find is that for those who turn it on and off frequently, there is a decent amount of friction involved in turning all the way off to all the way on, so it's not as quick to use as a trigger shot.
I have a 3/4 inch hose and I was always frustated that at the end of the hose, a nozzle or a quick connect would create lots of restriction. Well, with this baby, there is plenty of water coming out! To make your life easier and perfect use it with a full flow Gilmour quick connect.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XTMGTG/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
I have owned no less than 15 different nozzles over the years. One has been worse than the next. The ones you drop after you use which are made of plastic simply break. Then there are the ones with the several settings and trigger which constrict the flow so much that you would think it needed a dose of flomax! I have used many types in between. This unit is simply the best. I never realized the pressure I had restricted by using the other ones. When I turned the spigot on all the way, I could get a good steady stream over 20 feet no problem at all. I drop it after use without worrying about cracking it.
I just started using it and ordered another one today.  I am a garden person with many flowers all over the place.  Nozzles are important to me.  This one is by far the best I've ever used.  Reaches far and many patterns that I can choose.  Nothing better.
By far this is the best hose nozzle. Look at the reviews. There's a reason it's rated so high. It's very durable and easy to use. With so many spray settings, you don't need anything else. It goes from a soft spray to a very powerful stream. I highly recommend this product.
I liked the concept of this, and bought two at the same time. We have small ranch, and varying watering/hosing needs. We typically buy the 7 way adjustable nozzles, but I thought these would allow more versatility.These nozzles perform well, but not as good as a conventional nozzle. For a start, there is no quick way to get the desired spray pattern, you have to slowly rotate the head and stop when you think it is what you need, often messing around 'finely tuning' it to try and get the best result. Secondly, none of the 'jet' part of the adjustments creates a clean jet, there is always a fine mist or errant second or third jet spraying in a different direction at the same time.These cannot create all the spray patterns found on a 7 way nozzle, and create poor patterns on the ones they can create.This is a good idea, but in reality you are better off with a 7 way nozzle.
The sky high ratings intrigued me, so when the Bon-Aire "ultimate" nozzle was available as a Lightning Deal, I bought one to see if it lived up to the hype.The product appears to be very well constructed, and is quite a bit larger and heavier, than your typical cheapo nozzle.  You adjust the flow of water by turning the spray head at the front.  Water flow can be cut off at either end of the range, as the flow pattern goes from off, to a gentle sprinkle, to wide spray, and then narrowing into a beam, and then off again.  Because of the larger sized head, the "ultimate" nozzle has a larger area of coverage, and can deliver a larger volume of water.The nozzle does a decent job of diffusing water flow, producing a nice gentle flowing fountain of water suitable for watering potted plants or delicate flowers.  When adjusted more to a spray, it is well suited for vegetable gardens and general use.  This is however, nothing unique as far as sprinkler nozzles go.Fully open, the front aperture is about 0.12 inches in diameter, which produces a thicker stream of water than your typical cheapo nozzle.  Sometimes a thick stream is advantageous, but you will be using more water, and the increased water pressure may stress your plumbing.  Unless your system has high volume, and good water pressure, you may not be able to take full advantage this nozzle.The nozzle appears to be solidly built, and seems to work as advertised.  Unfortunately the aluminum parts on mine have a reddish finish, rather than green, which looks cooler.  Although it can deliver a higher volume of water, the assertion that it is the "ultimate" is perhaps an overstatement.  It does a good job, but not that much better than the various cheapo nozzles and spray guns.  The economy models typically don't last very long, so if "the ultimate" proves to be durable, it might be worth the premium cost.  It's a bit heavy, and encourages using more water, so at this point I like it more than love it.
You are better off going to your local department store and buying the Craftsman brand nozzle instead. It is identical to this one except the green part is silver. And it comes with a lifetime replacement guarantee unlike this Bon-Aire one. It's also about the same price.That said, I prefer a trigger type nozzle because to turn this off, you have to rotate it several revolutions and then it doesn't remember the spray setting you were at. This type of nozzle may be good if you're holding it for a long period of time watering your garden or something like that, but for washing your car when you only turn the water on periodically, it doesn't work as well as a trigger type hose nozzle.
So easy to use and turn on and off. It dose not burn your hand like the others do when left out in the sun.
This thing is bulilt to last. I love this nozzle, it is very durable and works great. I did not have a leak for over a year now.
Used these for my Civic speakers and bundled with the bulk pack does wonders for dampening sound and keeping out road noise! Great purchase!
When looking at these products, simply calculate the actual cost per square foot. for example this"speaker kit" contains 1.38 square feet, for around 22 bucks(price fluxuates like its a stock or something?)can u think of anything thats worth 15 dollars a square foot? there are so many cheaper alternatives. dynamat is an awsome product, and it does work. but for those of us not made of money, search this "butyl flashing tape" u will be glad u did.
Purchased for 2010 Challenger. Installed by HyTech Audio in Houston, Texas. No road noise heard only music. Picture perfect sound.
I used some of this on my headphones to help deaden the bass.  It works very well, but then I found out there is cheaper stuff available.  So I would shop around before getting this, but it does work very well.
HI,This product is a great product that helps you to eliminate rattles/vibrations when you are installing speakers into a vehicle's car doors, rear panels, decks, etc.  It does exactly that and it does it well.There are many claims about it stopping distortion, noise, etc....  However, it should be noted that if you are over powering a speaker..distortion will occur and no padding can stop that.Dynamat has been around for ever and continues to provide a solution that eliminates rattle and vibration.  Use it for that and you will agree that it is a 5 Star Product.  Expect miracles and you will be disappointed.
It works well, I am surprised that someone else does not make it[cheaper].  It is a very low tech material.  We used it in the doors of a friends car when speakers were replaced and spent over $100.  I bought three cans of rubberized undercoat at Wally-World for about $5 per can and my doors were just as quiet.  I guess it is just personal preference and economic priority, for me the extra $85 in the pocket was better.  My friend, well he spends money like a drunken sailor...not to offend any drunken sailors out there.
Dynamat is great, it's the original, you can't go wrong. I'm strictly using for door panels on both vehicles as I upgrade their stereo systems completely.  But I plan to put this on the floor of my truck as well, under the carpet.
I avoided dynamat for the longest time because it's pricey for the coverage area.  However after researching this, it's not easy to find a comparable material.  I covered the interior walls of my dryer (I posted a photo above) and it reduced the low rumbling noise considerably.  Dynamat Xtreme is a butyl rubber compound covered by aluminum foil.  The butyl is viscoelastic - it has just the right consistency between solid and liquid to provide maximum sound damping.  The foil probably provides some level of fire resistance, since it is hard for a fire to develop without oxygen when it is sandwiched in between the metal layer.  Cheap alternatives that some people use include the asphalt based rolls of roof sealer.  However that stuff will smell bad when it heats up (whereas butyl doesn't have such odor) and it doesn't have an aluminum layer so it's more dangerous if it were to catch fire, and asphalt can ooze into a liquid.  The closest thing I have come across that resembles Dynamat Xtreme is Hard Cast Foil Grip 1402, a specialty tape sold to contractors for HVAC duct sealing.  This HVAC tape, a favorite of mine for all kind of sealing uses, is much thinner though.  It's also a butyl compound with a foil layer and is also very expensive.  Overall I haven't found any hardware store generic material that is as good as Dynamat Xtreme for sound damping on large panels.  The price here is pretty good - I called around to some local retailers and they wanted almost twice as much for this kit.
I used this on my Burgman 650 scooter putting in speakers - major difference.This stuff real makes the area around the speakers thick giving better depth of sound...also takes out the rattles.
I had to use my wife's 01 Honda Accord for a couple of days and I could hardly hear myself think from the road noise made by the tires on concrete. I searched around and found several products offering claims of noise reduction. I figured if this was good enough for the "King of cool cars" Chip Foose, then It would probably be good enough for me. I put it on the doors and the floor boards. It was fairly easy to do, get some of those nylon interior tools so you don't scar up the interior panels. Man, was I ever a smart guy. My wife had never realized how loud it was in her car until I installed this. Now she is happy as ever driving her car. She said it made it feel like a new car. Happy wife - happy life. This stuff really does help a bunch! And to think, I did this for me... and reaped the benefits for doing it for her. Thanks to Chip and Amazon (for having the best price and free shipping)!I would have given it a 6 out of 5 if I could.
I shopped around a lot and researched sound deadeners before i bought this. i was sure of 2 things, i wanted something made of butyl, and i wanted value. there is no way i would take my truck that ive put so much time and money in, and line it with roofing tar for sound deadening to save a few dollars. when i first started looking at these product i went to lowes and looked at the peel n seel stuff. wow, i cant believe people put that in their cars. the asphaly smell was horrible, and that was in the package at 70 degrees on the shelf. cant imagine at 100 degrees in summer. I wanted to go with another product that is like dynamat but its backordered for months. so i grabbed this to get started with. product is easy to work with. went on great and makes a nice difference. one of the few products that works as soon as u put it on and shud last forever. definatly pricey for what it is, but amazon had the best deal.The Tip: ive found an incredible sound deadener, i had a "memory foam" mattress topper laying around. after the dynamat, i backed it with the foam, double thick some places. now the hatch of my SUV is like a solid brick wall when u tap on it, and all the bass stays inside.
I bought this for my 99 ford escort lx sedan, so I could hear my sony stereo more. I followed the instructions and applied the product to my front doors. I have noticed a difference in the sound quality of my speakers. I can hear them more and there's less vibration on the doors. As far as road noise goes, it helped just a little. This product isn't made to reduce the road noise, just to help get rid of vibrations and make your stereo system louder and easier to hear on the road. The road noise level is still the same in my car.
I have an FJ Cruiser.  It's not a quiet vehicle.  I accept that.I have been working on upgrading my stereo system - replaced the head unit, put in 6x9 speakers in the doors, etc.  Well, the 6x9s are much more responsive than the stock speakers were, especially in the lower frequencies.  So, I developed a buzz.  I bought the Dynamat to see if I could get rid of that, after I tightened everything that I could find.Installation was easier than I feared - thanks for the tennis ball tip, BTW!  As far as the real results, though, I'm not sure that I've noticed a real difference in sound quality, noise, or heat.  Perhaps some.  The rattling has reduced, but not eliminated.Does the product work?  Possibly.  It's hard for me to say either way.
I returned because it is just too much work to install and I find it hard to believe they would make much difference.
This has a lot of uses beyond car applications. I used a sheet of it on the drywall behind in-wall speakers to cut the amount of sound radiating through the back wall and tighten the sound. I used a sheet of it inside a computer case, to eliminate a tinny rattle that came from the case vibration while it was on. You can even put pieces of it on the inside of washing machine or dryer panels to make them quieter.It does have one drawback, and that's the fact that once you stick it on something, you will not be able to get it off without making a big mess. It is essentially tar with a foil outer cover, and trying to get it off just leaves a bunch of sticky tar behind. So, choose the place you want it carefully before sticking it down!
Wow, this stuff works well!  We have a wall air conditioner in our home.  It is a quiet variety that we paid a good deal of money for, due to that claim.  It still had a bad resonance of some vibrating metal on the machine.I applied this to all accessible (front face) surfaces, and only the spots where there was not a decal or other item present, probably less than 30% of the total frontal surface (keep in mind 50% is the evaporator and blower vent), and the available space on the front cover.  Wow, we can definitely hear a difference in the room it is installed in.This thing has a strong resonance, so we can still hear it in other spaces.  I feel like it doesnt dampen all modes, but it certainly does enough for a noticeable difference in the space where we have the AC located.
This stuff works great and the price and shipping were all excellent.  I ended up thinking one roll would work on a F250 front door, nope.  It took nearly two rolls, so I had to order more, but that's okay, I did.
This product is great, I only bought one of the sheets and all you have to do is fill the open holes in you trunk. I only covered the holes on the trunk and on the rear deck lid for the speakers. I didnt notice a big difference while driving till i looked at my rpm gauge and it was at 3500!!!! i usually shift at 2300 rpm and it was soo quiet I did not realize the rpm's i was running!!!! This product dampened my car from the sports exhaust sooooo much!!!! Great if you have a different exhaust system!!! I am amazed on how much this product helps!! I am about to do my bottom of my trunk and my inside firewall and I know my car will almost sound electric from the interior!!! GREAT PRODUCT!!!
Very good sound dampener it makes my trunk sounds very smooth and not rattly. I have my entire trunk lined with this stuff and all you can hear from the outside is true bass no rattling.
I used this on the interior walls of the air chamber of my fireplace insert to absorb the blower noise.  I did not notice a dramatic difference.  It is on the bottom of the plenum where the cool air goes in, not in the top portion.  There were no problems with odor or melting from the heat radiating through the bottom.  I don't know what would happen if I burned wood without turning on the blowers.
I bought about 10 boxs for my PT. The top of my PT would make a flutering sound when driving, not no more. Also road sounds dimed down some. When it rains, the top of my PT doesn't sound like a tin can anymore....
Put this on the lid of my trunk and it decreased the rattling from my subs big time. I have a hyundai Elantra and the trunk lid is absolute garbage. The aluminum is extremely thin and flexes like crazy. This little bit of dynamat made the whole trunk sound much more solid and reduced the flexing. I highly recommend it.I also recommend getting the dynamat roller if you don't have one.
I have had experience with dynamat in the past, but had never used it on my vehicles and was a little skeptical.  My car has a factory sub and the rear deck rattled like crazy.  After applying this to the underside the noise is gone.
This has a lot of uses beyond car applications.  I used a sheet of it on the drywall behind in-wall speakers to cut the amount of sound radiating through the back wall and tighten the sound.  I used a sheet of it inside a computer case, to eliminate a tinny rattle that came from the case vibration while it was on.  You can even put pieces of it on the inside of washing machine or dryer panels to make them quieter.It does have one drawback, and that's the fact that once you stick it on something, you will not be able to get it off without making a big mess.  It is essentially tar with a foil outer cover, and trying to get it off just leaves a bunch of sticky tar behind.  So, choose the place you want it carefully before sticking it down!
I have used Dynamat to combat noise in automobiles, dishwashers and even under a stainless steel kitchen sink.  The dishwasher and the sink were the most dramatic demonstrations of the value of this product.  The dishwasher was on the noisy side, until I had to replace a small switch in the door.  While I had it all apart, I decided to coat the inside of the door panel with Dynamat.  Now the dishwasher makes a soft hum as it running.  The sink was insulated, but it made that cheap rain on a metal roof sound when you turned on the water.  It was difficult to have a conversation and do the dishes at the same time.  Now it is dead quiet!  What a change!  I love this stuff.  I know that I will be on the look out for more Dynamat applications in my life!
It's no wonder Jay Leno and other serious car restorers use this stuff.  It works!  Depending on the car you're working on, disassembly could take some time, but it's worth it.  Getting the bulk pack is the way to go - much cheaper in the long run.I put this in an Escort ZX2, and it made a huge difference.  It was like my ears were stuffed up (but they weren't).  I did the hood, doors, floor, and trunk.  Actually installing it is a breeze.  Cut it with a utility knife, remove the backing, and put it down.  Then just roll over it with a roller of some kind to make sure it grips.For tricky shapes, I used paper or cardboard templates.  Even if you make a mistake cutting, it hardly matters.  Cut it too big? Just cut some more away.  Cut it too small?  Just add some more.This is not a job to do when it is ten degrees outside.  Wait till spring or summer when the Dynamat is easier to work with.
Does not make a noticable enough difference in sound quality to justify it's cost. I installed it inside of my doors using the roller and lots of elbow grease. All parts of the dynamat that I installed have good contact with the metal. I would return this but it is stuck to my car door...
I don't even know another sound deadner solution besides dynamat and theres proably a reason for that. I have been using this stuff on many car audio projects for years and its been great. Excellent from stopping trunk paneling from rattling down and solidifying speaker enclosures down to keeping wires bundled neatly and secure to the chassis. Always buy a bulk pack at least because the project always starts small like two speakers enclosures and next your doing the whole door outside panel and inside panel. Plus it never hurts to have extra.
I used this video to quiet a steel enclosure for a CNC mill. The product works perfectly. The amount I bought was overkill, but I saved on shipping and actual product price. My plan is to contact local stereo installers to see if they want to buy my surplus. If not, there are a myriad of items in my home that need some damping :) Used a wallpaper seam roller which worked fine.
I've used Dynamat for many years now. In my car I didn't manage to eliminate rattles from the trunk (2x jl audio 13w6's), but greatly reduced them. It used to be embarrassing (and sounded bad too) driving with volume up and car rattling being the only audible thing. It's better now because the rattling can only be heard by the trunk on the outside. I used it in the doors, floors, and trunk of my 04' elantra and it dramatically reduced road noise. It also made the stereo sound 10x better in my car. I also used it in the doors and trunk of an 01 Grand Prix, and also reduced road noise and improved stereo quality, but not as dramatically as my car since the grand prix comes with more sound deadening.
I have a 2008, Ford F150 FX2 Sport, Supercab. I had never done anything with sound, to any vehicle I had ever owned, that was so extensive. I am so glad I did. I absolutely love this stuff and will probably put it in any vehicle I own, whether I do a sound system or not. It just quiets things down. It gets a bit sticky at times but comes right off your fingers. Be careful with small pieces that you want to throw away, they may end up back on the bottom of your foot. It took me a solid weekend to do the front to the back and doors. If you have the time, do it.
I was originally going to get one of the small squares to go behind my newly installed speakers but after comparing the price per square foot, I decided to tackle a box of this stuff. A box let me cover four doors and my roof in my subaru wrx wagon.This car is my first non Mercedes in 15 years and although the subaru is still an econo box, this made the stereo sound way better, reduced road noise and give the car a more &#34; luxury&#34; feel. Well worth the price and effort to install.
there was so much product that I was able to dynomat all 4 doors and truck & I still have over half the dynomat left for other projects.
Installed in my IS 350. Could have used another few square feet, but it is easy to install once you remove all the carpet, spare tire and rear deck lid factory insulation. Don't forget the license plate and fuel door.
The rubber is soft so my vehicle doors are protected from hitting the concrete wall. I used doubled sided adhesive tape and it holds it nice and tight. Great product!
Great to protect the edges of your Car Doors in the garage, from bumping the wall & scuffing the paint off the edges. I need to buy another pack though, for the back doors protection too, as it is not long enough for both doors. We don't need it for the back doors very often, but I think it will come in handy at times. Since we like this so much, we will be buying another.
After years of being an idiot and trying to gently use my fingers to prevent my door from scraping on the wall of my car port, I bought this. Works exactly like it should... by being a barrier between my door and the wall. The thickness is perfect. It could stand to be a little longer for my inaccurate parking jobs... but very good nonetheless. Even has two holes cut out so you can drill the sucker into a wall if need be.Note: The vinyl tape that it says is frequently purchased with this product will not work on a textured (stucco) wall.
I ordered two for my garage. They are the right thing I needed. The rubber is soft enough to hold it's own shape, but won't damage the vehicle's paint. I may punch a hole in the middle since it is already beginning to sag. And, it has the lovely &#34;made in China&#34; stench. The rubber smells strong, and is probably toxic, but it was only $8.No one lives forever.-Oingo Boingo
The door protector is the perfect size. thick enough to protect the door even if you open too hard. Other protectors are thinner. Easy to mount. You will need to provide your own screws.
Very happy with this purchase. It is SO much better than the yellow hard plastic one. The soft rubber protects the door edges much MUCH better.
What I really like about these is the locking bar.  Most inexpensive stands do not have the add safety feature of a locking bar.  These are quality items that make me feel very safe working under a car
These jack stands are awesome....very tall.  My jeep has 4-5 inch of lift and is sitting on 35s.  These stands have no problems holding it off the ground with lots of room to spare!
easy to use, very solid. the double locking is a great feature but is kind of over kill. Love it!
These jack stands seem to be well made and I like the feature with the safety pin. I bought these to use on an old corvette and they are more than what is required for that purpose. I would have no problem using these on our chevy suburban.
I bought a set of these thinking they were the same as my 6 ton jack stands.  Luckily, my mistake made my life easier.  I was always that anything less than a 6 ton jack is just too flimsy if you're working on a truck or SUV.  I turns out that these little guys aren't flimsy at all.  And the added lock, while completely unnecessary, does provide a bit of extra reassurance when you're under a vehicle.  I would definitely buy again.
Can see the same welding issues as the other users, though I'm not sure if it would affect the maximum load (2 tons) the jack stands can hold. Sturdy jack stands, might be slightly high for some cars, depending on what you are trying to do (being too high isn't awful - you just need to jack your car up a little more).Overall, simple no frills car jack stands. Has a safety pin mechanism to to keep the jack stand locked, as well as the regular locking handle.
Reviewer's car: Hyundai Veloster TurboI did not have any problems with these jack stands. However, the lock is very easy to remove, so be aware of that. It did gave my car the support it needed, which these jack stands promised.
I use them and I like them... though since they seem to be made from painted carbon steel do not let them stand in the garage floor over winter. They will most likely begin to rust. I sprayed a bit of rubberized undercoating on them to at least prevent rust for a while
I had two sets of jack stands but only 1 1/2 tin capacity and when I got my truck, I feel questionable getting under the truck. I know they share the weight but it only takes one to fail... So I ordered two pair of these 3 ton stands. They were securely packed in the box with cover and cushion. I love the double locking safety. Very good construction and ready for use. I highly recommend this product.
You'd better trust your Jack Stands if you have any intention of getting under your car.I thought these were a good option but I changed my mind after receiving them...For whatever reason, justified or not, I felt uneasy seeing how much they rattle.I decided to take my car to the mechanics and ended up never using them. I forgot to return them and then it was too late...So two stars because they do not inspire me any confidence.
I use these very often. Helps me feel a lot safer when under my truck. They adjust well enough to get under there without much jacking up and jacking down.
These jack stands do what they are supposed to do. My Disco 2 is about 5,000 lbs and they hold it just fine. My only advice is that you make sure you know your vehicle height. These jack stands are tall. I use them on the lowest setting on my Disco and I still have to jack it up an inch or so to get it high enough to put these under. I will be lifting it soon though, so that will change, and hence the reason I got these. For a normal car though, these would probably not be my first choice.Also, if you are using them on asphalt, be aware that they might sink down into the ground a little. On concrete you wouldn't have this problem, but asphalt is soft enough that the edges of the stands might cut through.Finally, be safe and get a good pair of wheel chalks to use.
I used these two jack stands to hold a Nissan Maxima front end up and they worked without any issues. I will be testing the locking pins to see if they will hold the weight when the latch arm is pulled because I'm curious.
Heavy duty, no flaws.  Easy to use.  Make sure you bend in the tabs to prevent the insert from falling out later.  These are great.
They are OK jack stands nothing special. The only problems are that the double locking stick thing sometimes is not aligned properly and does not go in correctly. Also the legs are not flat when they wrap which could result in them sinking into your driveway or garage but that is not a problem for me because I primarily use them for a go kart and ATV but I have heard that it is good to get the ones with the flat legs because of those problems.
The Honda dealer wanted over $1,000 to replace the back shocks on my S2000. I bought these and a few tools totaling under a $100 and saved $500 by DIY.  That makes these a winner.Mike
Bought these because I have a deep fear of a car falling on top of me while I'm underneath.  Although I still have a major fear of that, these things do help ease it quite a bit because of the thick and sturdy build quality and the bar thing that locks it in place.  Very heavy duty stands.
Good stand for the price. They hold my offroad rig at full extension on the frame no problem, and the double locking feature gives me peace of mind, but still be sure to use other safeguards.
These are great for my Trailblazer, but huge for my daughter's Camaro. So keep in mind, you may want to go with a smaller ton stand if you don't have a truck or SUV
As for quality, sure it isn't top notch. But this thing isn't going to fall apart on you, these are tough and will hold. Scared for you life? Than go to a shop. The welding isn't perfect, but you have to realize this is mass produced. The welds aren't going to separate. I would definitely suggest using these in pairs, as in don't leave one alone to hold part of your vehicle. For those with cars, don't worry b/c cars weigh nothing. These are rated for as much as a cars avg weight. The double locking is a nice feature but not necessary on small jobs. My truck weighs over 6k so if these can hold one end, it will hold your average cars then too. If your doing small jobs, get these b/c theres no beating the price.
the first time I used it out of the box, one stand's neck is broken. I decided this brand is the one I should avoid. And let my friend know it.
BAD PRODUCT, WRONG WELDED, ITS ONLY WELD INSIDE, BUT NOT OUT SIDE,SO IS NOT RECOMENDED TO USE IT UNDER CAR. PLEASE DONT MAKE MY MISTAKE, IS NOT WELD RIGHT.THIS ITEM HAVE TO BE WELD IN BOTH SIDE, INSIDE AND OUT SITE, NOT ONLY INSIDE.THE PIN OR SECOND SAFETY PIN IS NOT GOOD AT ALL, IT MOVE AND DOES NOT HOLD THE POST RIGHT, ITS LIKE NOTHING, SO DOES NOT MAKE SENSE TO HAVE IT.--- TORIN WANTS TO SEND IT BACK EVERY YEAR FOR ANNUAL INSPECTION,BUT THEY DONT PAY FOR S/H. THIS SHOUL BE 1 TON, NOT 3 TON WITH THIS WELD FORM.MY ITEM LOOK USED NOT NEW, LOOK'S LIKE SOME ONE USE IT AND RETURNED AND THEN, THEY SENT THEM TO ME.  THE UPS DROP IT TO THE FLOOR, CAUSE I HAVE A GATE, SO BE AWARE OF UPS, THEY DONT CARE IF THEY BRAKE IT.
I bought two sets / 4 total. I use them near the middle of the lifting range which puts the saddle about 18 to 19 inches high. This is perfect to get my truck off the ground and give me an inch or so of ground clearance to R&R; the tires and do other work underneath the vehicle.I don't need 6t worth of lift, but I like how these j/s have a wide lifting range. With these set for my range (as stated above), they are not teetering at the top of the range like others I've used in the past, but are comfortably in the middle. They are very stable and solid units.It would be helpful if the info stated the lifting range of the units, not just the tonnage they can support as a pair.Min. Lift Height (in.)14 29/32Max. Lift Height (in.)23 1/2
I wanted a stand with the double lock and this is it. Have been using it since purchase and have had no issues. Great value.
I wanted a higher rating for my garage jack stands since they will be holding the Beast up while I scurry about underneath.  These fit the billl.  The safety bar gives me a little extra confidence and the welds look OK to my untrained eye.
I would not hesitate to recommend these jack stands, as I have had very good results and they seem to be very well made.  The double lock is an absolutely mandatory feature in my estimation.  You should always use the jack stands with the double lock in place, as it adds additional security.  I am pleased with the height of the stands as well, as it is possible to raise the vehicle up a considerable amount, making it easy to get in and work.  I replaced the front suspension on my vehicle in an afternoon using these stands and they never wavered.  I went out and replaced the rear shocks, springs, and fuel filter the next day.  Once again, the stands were steady and solid while I pushed, shoved, wedged, etc. the rear springs into place.I am very pleased with these stands and definitely recommend them.
Torin T43002A 3 ton double locking jack stands.  I know of other individuals that have use these and I decided that I needed them too
Why all the hype they have bad welds, they have this that or the other.....  Sometimes you get a bad product.  Does not mean that all the products are defective.  I purchased a set this past week and they have 100% perfect welds.  The product is in perfect shape and comes complete with instructions.  if you get a bad set, send them back.  Amazon takes them back.  I am a welder and a mechanic.  Yes, I've gotten bad products, but it doesn't mean you berate the product to death.  They have worked fine under a Kubota with a back hoe attached.  They do the job that they are supposed to do.  If you seem to think the product is defective send them back, get another set and rate what is used.  I feel completely safe working under these and have!
I bought this to jack up my 4Runner. It is sturdy for 3 ton, but a little short for a SUV. So I have to be careful to be sure the chassis bar stay on the top of the jack stand when I lower the jack. Otherwise, it is very good.
I really like the double locking feature as a backup incase the release lever got kicked or something. These stands also have a pretty good lift range. The welds aren't the best like others have pointed out but that's just what you're going to get at this price point. I'll probably reweld them at some point but for now they still far exceed my needs.I bought the 6 ton stands because while I'm not certain they're strong enough to support 6 tons (3 tons each of course) they are definitely strong enough to support any normal vehicle. Remember that the weight of the vehicle is divided up amongst the stands. With the exception of the very biggest configuration of the very biggest 1 ton diesel pickup available most big non-commerical trucks weigh less than 1 ton per corner so even if these stands can only manage a third of their rated weight they are still overkill for most trucks let alone cars.Basically the welds should be better but these things are still very strong and perfectly fine for normal passenger vehicles.
The unique locking pin makes these worthwhile. However, when you read the instructions, it's not clear how to bend the "tab" to hold the supports in the frame. Best way is to take a big screwdriver and bend them inward. Can't believe they don't put that on the instructions, since it's not intuitive.
It's an oil filter. It has been on for a few weeks now and hasn't come off, so I suppose it's working. It's hard for me to justify giving an oil filter a 5-star rating. What would the filter have to do to earn that? The only thing I noticed is that this one appears to be *SLIGHTLY* shorter, in length, than the one originally on my bike. I ride a 2008 Victory Kingpin and this was about 1/4 inch shorter. Hopefully, that doesn't mean that it isn't able to do the same amount of &#34;work.&#34; The rest of the fit was snug and seems to be just fine.
I bought this as a extra , so that when I change the oil I will have a new one.  It look to be of great quality and I am sure it will work just fine.
Shoppe around a little for a motorcycle filter for my 2004 Kawasaki Mean Streak. I like Fram and have used their filters on other bikes without any problems. So I bought it. Will buy another when the time comes.
Fram's a solid name in the motoring industry and at a price that's still reasonable.  Never had a filter fail in a car or bike.  Buying the multi-pack for the bike was a great value since oil is changed more frequently with motorcycles.
Fram has a horrific history of manufacturing oil filters that fail. Their filters leak and do a poor job at filtering impurities. There are websites devoted to discussing oil and oil filters and Fram products are nearly universally criticized and avoided. There are also videos online that investigate Fram oil filters and they are nearly all universally negative.Purolator, Wix (NAPA), Mann, Mahle, are some quality filters. Fram are the worst filters and you are risking harming your bike.
My experience by no means is a proven scientific method of analysis, but the trend I have experienced with Fram filters has been one of reliability. I used Fram on everything from motorcycles, ATVs, cars and my 4x4 trucks. Not one has shown any indication of failure. My truck with over 300K miles is well within its compression window and doesn't blow the least bit of smoke. My motorcycle has over 50K miles and it too doesn't show any appreciable wear.Does that mean Fram is flawless? Nothing is, but I changed 1000s of engine oil for myself and 100s of friends over 30yrs. I am presently using this 6017A series on a Polaris ATV which is exposed to extreme conditions in the Florida swamps with much success.Maybe Fram fails easier than others when you push the envelope with going long on an oil change interval. Since I change oil religiously, I may never know what the failure point of a Fram filter is, and I am certainly not interested in finding out the hard way.I trust Fram as good balance between quality, reliability and cost.
worked fine...went on with no problems and I like the price much better than the cycle shop's price...next time for sure
It's a Fram - a name I've learned to trust over the years. My only gripe is that none of my cap filters fit on the end, even the small ones.
Was a little worried about this fitting my Daytona Triumph 650 but it fit well, no issues. Would purchase again.
Bought this for use as a shot glass. Real men drink out of oil filters. Are you a man? Then get this.Oh and if you need a oil fllter for your bike? Just go into your cupboard and grab a shot glass. It's a win win.I have so much chest hair.
How much can I say about an oil filter. Fits my bike and price was good. No complaints. Would buy again.
The material seems durable, but it does not fit tightly on my 30x9.5x15.  There is almost no elastic properties for the interior, and it would easily spin on the tire itself, and stealing it would be ridiculously easy.  The bottom looked like granny panties on a supermodel.  Couldn't see that delightful bottom curve.I used a grommett kit on it so I can thread a rope around it to cinch it tightly.  Has faded to a charcoal gray from black since purchase 18+ months ago.
bestop has always been good quality merchandise.this product is no exception.very good quality fit and well constructed.make sure you know your tire size so you get the right fitment.
If you need a new tire cover and don't care about having something printed on it give this a look. It just fit my 255-70 R15 tires on my Jeep and has held up for about 12 month since it was installed. The only this I have noticed about it is that it is very hard to keep it looking clean and black without dirt streaks in it.
I have a Wrangle-X but it's got the Rubicon wheel package so the tires are 255/75-17 (I don't know what all the numbers mean so I just post them all).  I bought the 2X size and it fits good, coming over the back side by about 2", feeling snug and secure.  I don't really see the "denim" look but at least it doesn't have the shiny look.  Material feels durable, should last pretty good.
No issues, just as described,  Used to cover spare tire on boat trailer.  Good quality.  Currently have owned for more than 6 months and looks like new.
No real complains about it. Fits and does it's job. Even the wide one doesn't completely go around my steering wheel. My wheel isn't huge either. So this was meant for a skinny steering wheel. But it feels good and was easy to install. One of the plastic strings broke. But I just wrapped it around the wheel, tied a knot in it, and continued to wrap it around the wrap. Not a big deal. Happens with this style of wrap often.
This was easy to install and fit my Mazda CX-5. I think I received a size C. I put it on but it looked a little cheap and mostly just weird. My sister describes it as looking like intestines. I decided to find one that I can sew on on eBay.
This worked great , easy to put on and feels good too.Hard to find also , and it shipped fast.I bought a used truck and previous owner wore a lot of rings and the steering wheel was beat up.Now it looks great.2008 Ford F-150 4X4 Truck
...fits my 1973 Chevy/GMC 4x4 steering wheel perfect. Stretch it over the wheel and wrap the vinyl string around it nice and tight. The vinyl will break so just stretch it a little.
I've used this type of steering wheel cover ever since I can remember! It takes time putting it on but it's worth it!  Always get the &#34;wide&#34; version because any other type doesn't cover the grip enough.
Wishing this was larger piece, seems very expensive to get such a small bit of this material.  We used it to protect a wall barrier within the walls behind a woodstove where the pipe comes through.
I bought this to provide extra heat prevention/protection for my short ram intake heat shield. My brand intake is a Neuspeed on my 2012 MKVI Jetta 2.5L SEL.It is easy to shape/trace to the shape of the item being wrapped and easy to cut/place. So far, the heat wrap has lasted and I see no peeling, especially after having lasted through two heavy days of raining. I did a temp-check with remote thermostats and found an additional 67F difference with the heat shield being wrapped versus not. A definite difference and benefit from before -- after! I will post a picture this evening to go along with my review.
This stuff sticks surprisingly well to the underside of my carbon fiber hood. It has been a month of hard weather and it still looks and holds perfectly.
i used it to insulate my headlight on my motorcycle! (i put in an hid light) not the most flexible stuff but can be cut up and set nicely!
I used this to protect a couple of relays under the hood of my vehicle and it worked great and keep the relays cool.
Item was used for the backing of saddlebags for my moto. They worked well, the only issue that I had was a little transference on the muffler guard but it cleaned up nicely.
Was looking for something like this for the underside of my box for my side x side, the exhaust gasket let go on both pipes an blew out the center of the sheet protecting the underside. saw this stuff on here and did some research on the web on their products. looks like this is what I needed and they been making this great shielding for a while. so if you need heat shielding of all sorts, this is the company to look up .
Originally, I purchased this for a vehicle engine air intake -- cooler air = more mpg/power.  However, I found that it works well for high temperature halogen lighting fixtures.  In the winter, CFL take too long warm up in a garage door opener.  So, I employ 150 watt halogen lamps.  Even with the translucent fixtures removed, the lamps still melt the dark plastic housing on the garage door opener.  With this heat barrier covering all of the nearby surfaces, not only is the plastic housing protected but better light out is realized.
I installed a custom cone cold air intake. Used this to wrap around the piping to keep the heat out, my gas mileage went up only 1mpg but thats still something. Keeps the air cooler around the piping and can definitely feel a boost in acceleration. This keeps the heat out for sure.
it stays stuck, on fiberglass at least.  easily cut to shape.  seems to protect.  i'm using it on the bellypan of my motorcycle track fairing, which is fiberglass.  i'm told fiberglass won't bubble like stock type fairings will, so i may not have needed it.  but i put it on just in case, and whether it's because i didn't need it or the stuff is working, but my paint isn't bubbling.  which is all i care about.
This is a good outer covering for a header wrap, however, it is not that pliable and will kink around tight bends. The glue in a few section of the tape did not stick very well.
I'm using this to protect the cutout of our new granite countertop from the heat generated by the cooktop.  This material feels heavy and professional, so it looks like it will do the job nicely.  The adhesive sticks fine so far.
Using this on some steel transmission lines that somewhat close to the exhaust.  Trying to limit the heat transfer into the fluid.  Will update with results.
Used this tape many times over the years and it does what they say.Recently installed a cat-back system on my Jeep and the pipe was pretty close to my shock.Wrapped some of this tape around the shock where it seems close to the exhaust and my shock oil should be alright.
For idiots that think you can wrap headers with this, your a fool. This a insulin. keeps heat away not keep it. put on anything to keep the heat away from wires, intake pipes etc. works great. keep your intake cool and your good to go!
The adhesion is good and the thermo tape does its job.  It's good for protecting wires in your engine compartment or other high temperature places.
This device attaches securely to the tow vehicle, but at a cost.They are cumbersome to attach and detach, with several moving parts and the potential to scratch the tow vehicle paint during either process if you don't have three hands available.To attain the secure vibration free fit, you must crank down on the ratcheted web strap hard enough to deform the door where it attaches to the window channel. It also deforms the rubber window seal.Foam pads protect the door somewhat where the bracket would otherwise rub on the body, but if the area isn't meticulously clean beforehand I can see where it would dull the paint over time.Because of the metal claw part that fits into the window channel, raising and lowering the window caused a screeching sound on my driver's side window.Finally, when they are detached from the door, they make for a very bulky awkward device that doesn't store conveniently or compactly in the vehicle.I'm sending them back.
Easy to mount and adjust. Since each one is made identical (there is no right or left, you just mount the mirror differently), one has the tensioner lever right next to the mirror (drivers side in my case). That is not a problem if you place it back from your mirror. Good sturdy mount and no vibration. Once adjusted they are easy on and off.
I bought a pair of these to use while pulling a 17' Bowrider type boat behind a 2007 Ford Ranger.  With just the stock mirrors, any traffic directly behind the boat was absolutely invisible to me.  With the mirrors, that is no longer the case.I had two problems initially: one due to my own ineptness and the other due to being alone.  When I first got these out of the box and clipped them into the bottom of the door and the window groove, the horizontal bar was not horizontal at all.  Adjusting the straps straightened that out completely.  Also, the mirrors appeared to be fixed in position and any effort to move them seemed as if it might break them.  Well, there are three Phillips head screws that encircle the adjustment ball; loosen them and you can move the mirror any way you want.The major problem remains adjusting the passenger side mirror.  If I had somebody to move it for me, I could adjust it in just a minute while I sat in the driver's seat.  As it is, I had to get out, adjust the mirror, get back in, check the adjustment from the driver's seat and repeat ad nauseum until I finally got it right.  I don't fault the mirror for that.These mirrors come one to a box so you need to order two of them.  The image vibrates slightly but that doesn't really matter in practice:  I'm just looking to see if anything is behind the boat.  It will tell me that.
These mirrors are the best that I have found for towing a travel trailer.  They are easily installed and they do not vibrate at all.  The field of view is goodsnd When not towing a trailer, they are easily removed for storage.
I loved these for my Honda Odyssey minivan. Easy to use and install. Very well built. I would easily recommend these!
They whistle while they work! But only sometimes (whistle that is). I only use them a couple times a year on an Expedition, economical.
As long as you take the time to make sure all adjustments are initially done correctly they are a breeze to install and take off. You must make sure that the feet are adjusted properly. I made marks on my factory mirrors so that I install them in the same spot every time. Once installed make sure the straps are as tight as you can get them. I have had little or no trouble with vibration. Anytime you hang something on a mirror that wasn't intended to have something hanging there and then go down a not so smooth road you are going to get some vibration. I don't care who makes it. This design was well thought out and works great on our 07 Jeep Wrangler. At speeds up to 75 mph I have very little movement to none. The only time I get any vibration or movement is at expansion joints or rough roads. To sum it all up I would make this purchase again and would recommend it to others who have the same type of factory mirrors as mine. I think that they would work for most applications as long as you take the time to adjust them properly.
these work great and are easy to put on and take off; I had to modify the lower clip to conform to the mirror on a F-150 but it was easy and I recommend these mirrows to anyone who has a pair of pliers and a little do-it-yourself tallent for the F-150 2012 model
extremely versatile.  the conical end pulls outward and functions as a ratchet, cranking the straps/clips taught.  A few minutes of one-time configuration/setup is needed and future mount/removals are accomplished in seconds.  The only reason i didn't give these a 5 star rating is the small foam discs tend to come off the mounting bases periodically (they press against the outside of your existing mirror).  Thoughtfully, the vendor includes extras.  All in all, a very unique and functional product!
This is a piece of junk.! The straps stretch, the plastic clips slip off while tightening, and the dam things fall off while driving. Try to get the type that slide over the existing mirror and have a plastic screw in the back to hold it on.  They do work well.
After arriving, it slipped onto our 2013 Highlander just fine, and tightened up and was able to be adjustable pretty well.  Still I decided to &#34;add&#34; an additional strap that mounted to the two front feet to help hold it tighter at those points just for my own concerns about possible moving at higher speeds on the interstate.  By adding the straps I did realize a more stable fit to the shape of our Highlander mirror.  I talked to another camper who was using the same model and he didn't find any need or desire to modify his set whatsoever, and like them just fine.
Great replacement for a rearview mirror. Big for a large car perfect size. I dont know how night mode works or whatever but for sure its just a normal rearview mirrors
It is clear and the flip thing works fine.  It fit my stock mount on my windshield perfectly.  It does come with a mount for you to use, just no glue.  But, as I said, it fit my old one with no problems at all.
1. The viewing surface of the 8 inch mirror is exactly 7.5 inches wide and 2.25 inches high.2. I tried adjustment of the mirror without mounting it. The ball joints on the mirror arm are so tight that adjusting is extremely difficult to nearly impossible.  WD40 did not work, neither did working the joints around to loosen them up.3. So if you try to adjust the mirror after it's mounted, you risk stressing the mounting button glue and the button may fall off.4. When adjusting the mirror, the day/night button kept flipping on/off.  Very annoying.5. The mirror surface itself is very good, no ripples.
Needed to replace a broken mirror.  This one fit right onto the existing metal holder that was still cemented to the windshield.  It has a lock-screw to hold it in place.  If you need to replace the metal holder, it is included but no glue is supplied.  Overall, it is a perfectly fine basic mirror.
Bought as a replacement for a stock one in my plow truck.  I like this one.  Size is perfect and the mirror is good quality.
product was just as described a prefect  fit easy to install a lot cheaper than part stores would buy this prouct again
I stuck this mirror onto the wall of my cubicle to keep an eye on spies wondering by. It stuck to the fabric lining and works very well.
It fucntions ok for being all plastic. And for the price, I wont complain.
Cheap, but huge! Love it! I will never have a vehicle without these again! I highly recommend them. I'm watching The Rock right now. I had to type 20 words.
Almost nothing to it, mass wise, has an adhesive disc on the back approximately 1.5" across, slightly off-center.  The actual mirror part thought seems to be silvered plastic (no surprise), but arrived with what appears to be scuffing directly from the packaging itself.  As long as there isn't a light source in the reflection, it's barely noticeable, but it's there.
I have two complaints about this product.  The first may be a fluke, but the something is something you should be aware of before you buy this.Issue 1) Arrived scratched, because of no protective coating.  The mirror arrived in a blister pack, which is fine, but had a lot of abrassion scratches on the front of it, which is not.  It isn't bad enough to warrant the hassle of a return, for a product this cheap, but I am certainly disappointed.  Since I only bought one, I don't know if this scratching is a trend, but I kind of suspect that it is becaus of the lack of a protective film.Issue 2) Objects in mirror are MUCH closer than they appear.  It makes things look tiny.  This may be fine if you are using this to see cars, but to see people coming from behind you in an office environmnet, it is largely ineffective.Though I usually am a big fan of buying online, from Amazon.com, this item might be better purchased in a brick and mortar store, so you can see how it will look, and ensure it isn't scratched.
These are great mirrors! They do not seem much bigger than the round ones but they do give a better image. Be careful about placement though because they have a tilt to them unlike the round ones you will find at your local auto store.
These work and are useful but I bought them for my Mazda CX-5 and decided to get smaller and thinner mirrors. These would be a little too big for my mirrors.
The 2 x 2 Inch mirrors are a good fit for 2006 Honda Pilot. I had to order via Amazon since I couldn't find these anywhere - it appears local auto stores only carry the 3 x 3 inch size. These little blind spot mirrors are a must buy item - they cover the blind spots on either side of the vehicle very well.
We have an SUV. I would normally setup the side view mirrors so that when viewing the rear view mirrors and side view mirrors, there is just a bit of overlap when looking at them. This presents a problem when backing up as you cannot see the curbs clearly. So this helps a lot. The side mirrors are now just looking straight back helping in parallel parking as well backing up to a curb. These mirrors help in making sure that when you are driving and changing lanes, you can see if there is any object in your blindspot without glancing over your shoulders. Great mirrors and to this day, they remain clear. I will get another one - the smaller version of these mirrors - for my sedan.
Thought I'd find a use for this on both rear view mirrors, was mistaken.  Still the convex surface allows for a really good viewing angle at a really cheap price so I have no complaints.
I used to have the round mirror.  After getting a new SUV i decided to shop immediately on amazon for a new blind spot mirror and i found this.I decided to try this product based on user review and did the right thing.  These mirrors are perfect for my Outlander 2011 side mirrors.  I like the shape and very clear mirrors.  Although i should have gotten the 3x3 but still this 2x2 works.  Just make sure you purchase 2.  Since this is not sold in pair...  I had this mistake thinking it was sold in pair.. good think i got Amazon prime :
I use this mirror in the office to see if there is anyone coming to my desk.  I sit with my back to the aisle and I was startled many times by people who'd stand behind me and snoop on my computer activities.I attached this mirror to the upper left corner of my monitor using the douple sided tape that was pre-attached to the mirror's back, and secured it additionally with a couple of Scotch tape strips .  Now with my periferal vision I notice if there is a reflection change in the mirror, and I will be aware if anyone is approaching my desk.
I drive a car that has dead spots on both sides.  This fits the bill as it provides a larger area of view.  You need to look more carefully as all these types of mirrors make the car in view seem a lot further away so use as a reference.  Since these mirrors are fairly small they only use up about 20% of the existing rear view mirrors viewing area.  I only use these on my rear view mirrors as that is when the blind viewing areas occur.  I usually purchase a few different types of these mirrors so I can determine which works best for me and my wife.  Also try on different spots of the existing mirror, before removing the adhesive covering, to determine the best location.  If you attach it in the wrong location these mirrors can be removed by using a one sides razor blade.  Just push down on the razor slowly to prevent the existing mirror from cracking.  Once off you can always purchase new double sided tape to reuse the convex mirror.
These little mirrors are real life savers, but this one could be a good 30% bigger, and one of them was immediately scraped off in the car wash, so a stronger glue is also needed.
Cheap plastice mirrow for watching your blind spont. Better than the round type, this one wasnt all bad.
Not a bad mirror it's just a little on the large size for my side view mirror, but I'm getting used to it.
A little pricy for the spray but it does what it is supposed to do well and instead of throwing out filters you can reuse them a few times depending on the condition. I normally clean it two times than toss it out.
Like others have said here this aerosol bottle makes oiling your cotton/oil filters very easy. Controlling the amount and evenness of oil is very easy.
I've been using K&N Filters in my cars since I was about 20 or so. It's truly amazing the amount of particulate they catch, and this oil is a huge part of that process. I find it heaps easier to buy a can every now and then through amazon, instead of hunting it down at the local auto parts store, who may or may not have it, depending on any number of ridiculous things.
Works excellent! Get the Aerosol over the liquid if you have the pod style filter or flat corrugated style for sure. It spays nice and even. I have used them both, the spray, and the liquid and the spray is the way to go for these. If you do have the older all foam style filters then get the liquid (squirt/pour kit or bottle) it will last you longer.
I highly recommend this product for when you want to re-oil your K&N or any brand of high perf air filter whether it be cone or panel. Not as much waste , easier to apply than the squirt bottle type.
fast shipping and a good price. I bought this and the cleaner separately instead of the combo kit because I think you get more for your money this way. Oil was easy to apply (best used outside for aeration purposes). Never buy a air filter again.
Needed more oil for my filter and needed to get to 25 dollars for the free shipping so a win win for me
This is a good size to buy and is enough oil to service a filter several times. The K&N oil has red dye in it so you can see when you have achieved full coverage. Great filters that when maintained, one filter will last as long as the car will last. Catches dirt better than the paper filters. The K&N filter gave my truck a slight increase in acceleration. When I removed a new clean paper Fram filter and put the K&N in, I took it for a road test. On a dry asphalt road, straight line acceleration from a stop, my truck broke the tires loose every time. Put the Fram back in as a test and it was again not quite able to do it. Put the K&N back in and again it was able to break the tires loose every time. Never quite had enough power to do that before. Not a huge difference but a difference none the less. When you clean your K&N be sure NOT to use hot water while cleaning. Hot water can make the filter shrink in places, causing it to become uneven. After cleaning and recoating with the oil. Mine still looks just like a new one. I put the K&N in while the truck was almost brand new and now it has 234,000 miles on it in 13 years. Same air filter and the engine has never been apart. The engine absolutely has wear, but no smoke yet and still runs good.
I have two K&N air filters for each car, and truck I own. Put on a clean one. Wash the dirty one. Better gas mileage. no more to buy.  SW
This oil is just right for the renewal of your filter and should be used instead of SAE 30 alone.  It adheres better and as packaged is much easier to apply than sticking it and the filter in a bag and mushing it around.  It also uses less oil and gives precise coverage.  Oil your filter and get better air flow and better particle removal at the same time.You might be able to keep uncle Phil away from when you are grilling if you waft a little bit of it his way on approach, too, but maybe you shouldn't do that.
For around 20 dollars for 2 cans of KN air filter oil this will last for a long time since you only need to recharge the filters ever 30-50 thousand miles. Shipping and handling was quick and smooth and the products were in great condition.
I much prefer this version to the pump version. It's nice and easy to just use the self propelled spray to re oil the filter. Nice that it's bigger than the one that comes in the kit too.
I normally use the smaller recharge kit (white bottle) but since i ran out, I bought this spray and the bigger oil can to match. I used it on a k&n filter I had never cleaned and unlike the other white bottle cleaner, it did not completely remove the oil, so it is hard to say I'm 100% satisfied. I will need to test it on the other filter which I have cleaned before to see if it was just this filter. Not sure if it is the same exact formula as the white bottle and it very well could be, but I will update this when I clean the older filter again which i just cleaned with the white recharge kit so it won't be for a while. Since i don't see any other alternatives I imagine this is the only option for regular (non synthetic) k&n filter cleaner, if you can get your hands on the white bottle cleaner that works great and I can vouch for that. In this case the problem could be the filter, I have bought a few of the white recharge kits so I know how to clean filters. Time will tell
I started out with the "kit" (cleaner & oil) for my K&N.  It just seems that the oil lasted longer than the cleaner, especially if your filters get really dirty and you have to clean a second time.  The 32 oz. may cost as much as the kit, but it also has 4x the amount of cleaner in the spay bottle.  The larger spray bottle has a larger dispersal sprayer than the one in the kit, so it takes less time to spray down your filter.
I've used this product many times in the past but each time I did it was the small bottle included with the filter that I used. This stuff is exactly the same as the smaller bottle and therefore works the same, which is to say very well. You spray it on the filter, let it sit for 10 minutes or so and rinse with water. There are two benefits to the larger bottle. First is that it is more economical. I have four vehicles with cotton oiled air filters and this bottle should last a fairly long time. Also, it is much easier to spray into the filter than with the smaller bottle. I also feel because it is easier to spray and direct you will use a little less cleaner your filter which should make it an even better value yet.
I have a filter in my car and my wife's car - this cleans them perfectly and is so much easier to spray than the bottle that came with the original cleaning kit.
This can be used to clean so many things. When I cleaned my air filter and then rinsed it, I now have a very clean spot on my front sidewalk. I've used it with much success cleaning up old oil spills in the garage and cleaning window screens on the house. Highly recommended for the air filter cleaning but has many other uses as noted on the product label.
fast shipping and a good price. I bought the 32oz cleaner and the 12.25oz oil aerosol separately instead of the combo kit, better value that way, you get more for your money. Havnt used the oil yet im waiting for the filter to completely dry over night before I spray it with the oil. The cleaner worked GREAT just spray it on wait 10 min. and rinse with the hose, filter looks brand new. Il spay it with the oil tomorrow and Im good to go !
Does a great job cleaning grime that collects on KN filters for my truck and twin intakes on G37s. Less than 10 minutes of soaking and it removes the old oil and dirt. Rinse with water and blow dry with a hair dryer or even a leaf blower and your ready to reapply new oil that allows the flow through fabric to filter out fast flowing intake.
The bottle does not match the picture on Amazon...FYI My bottle rec'd was black....other than that, I was pretty pleased with the product, worked well cleaning my JWT pop charger filter.***edit***  Amazon has since updated the picture.
This cleans all filth on dirty filters with ease. I need to look for a bigger bottle of this stuff
This 32 ounce is much cheaper in the long run than the kit with it's little bottle of cleaner. Most people use more of the cleaner than the oil. One properly serviced K&N filter will last as long as the car will last. I have never had to replace a K&N filter. Just clean, air dry with a fan, recoat the filter fabric with the oil and a thin film of K&N grease on the seal. The oil has a red dye in it, so you will know when you have full coverage. The K&N filters catch dirt better than any of the paper filters.
All my cars have K&N air filter cleaning systems. I got two filters per car. I use one and clean the change out. Better gas mileage.  SW
I feel like I could probably get away with dish soap and water but this is so cheap/long lasting that I don't find it worth the risk/reward to find out.
Shipped in two days, great product, cleans and treats your K&N Air Filter. I use K&N filters on both my diesels and being able to clean and service them keeps my engines running great!
It's what the company recommends and most people don't want to experiment with other products to see IF they work or not and take a chance on ruining  their expensive filter.
I used this on a car with 2 year old K&N; filter. The car wasn't driven much, but I thought I clean it anyway. It's really easy. Spray on cleaner, wait 10 minutes, then spray with water.  Dry, then spray on the red oil. Much easier using oil spray instead of the other type.My car has 2 K&N; air filters, and I used 2/3 of both cleaners and oil spray. So I can use this kit for one more.  However I was more than generous (or spray-happy). I'm sure I could've easily use this kit on two filters twice (4 total), instead of 3 filters.
Been using K&N filters and this service kit for years.  Best way to save money on air filters.  Buy this as soon as you get your car and you will never need another filter again.
This is an K and N recharge kit with the Aerosol not the pour out style that works easier for the user. Great buy for less than what you would pay any where else for the same stuff. Well worth the price and shipping and receiving were simple and super fast. Thanks again Amazon.
Bottles were bigger than expected (like pledge bottle size but a little fatter). The box was strong and in good shape. Products came on time (surprised with UPS lol). Wally World wanted same price for smaller ones. I would buy again. What you see in picture is what you get (aside from the K and N box).
Do not purchase other brand recharger kits.  They are inferior oils used with them.  This kit is by far better than any other recharger kits out there.
Does what it exactly is suppose to do. One of the bottles cleans the air filter and once the air filter has dried, the other bottle lubricates the filter for the next use. Would recommend
Washed the filter on a Friday evening and the filter was dry Saturday evening.  Sprayed on the oil on Sunday afternoon.  Very easy to do on a 2008 GMC Sierra 3500 HD Diesel.  My main concern with the dealer doing it was that they might not have let the filter dry completely before re-oiling it.  How would I have ever known if it were done correctly?  They said it would take about an hour.  I don't know how the filter could have ever dried &#34;naturally&#34; as is required by K&N, in only one hour.  I'm glad I did it myself and I bet you will be too.  This kit will probably last for at least three recharges.
Best I can tell it works. When I clean a filter it's collected a lot of junk but the cleaning solution gets it good and clean.
well this stuff works.  i had some gunk clogging up my fram airhog filter so i used this k&n stuff.  had to let it sit for a good 10-15 minutes twice. now my FRAM filter is good as new.  by the way, the fram air-hog is a washable filter.
My car and truck were both really running like crap... figured it was time to wash and recharge the filter. I sprayed it with their, basically soapy water, and waited a while as the bugs and gravel dust was loosened, and then rinsed it in the sink until clear. I let it dry in the sun for a few hours while I found something else to do, then sprayed the oil as if I were spray painting something... follow the instructions, don't want too much oil, don't want too little either. My Neon doesn't care if I over oil it, but my truck has a mass airflow sensor, it does care... it cares a lot! Under-oiling it causes the fine mist of gravel dust through the filter, too much clogs it quickly and I guess that's better than it going into the engine but the MAF Sensor gets coated with the oil and that will cause performance issues that the filter may have given you. It's a fine balance!
This is my second one of these.  I have been using K&N products on my cars for about 10 years and this kit cleans them well.  I usually clean my filter every 25,000 miles or so.  The kit lasts about 3 or 4 cleanings.
The kit cleans and treats the filter to keel it working as it should. Not much else to say about it.
The oil is what you really need. The cleaner isn't anything special, at least I can't tell any real difference from cleaners like Fantastic.  But my air filter wasn't too dirty.
This cleaner and oilier work great and restore the filter to like new condition just make sure you don't use a lot of oil because it will cause problems with the MAF sensor or even foul spark plugs in extreme cases.
You need this to keep your K&N filters in top condition, hopefully it will also work for Fram AirHog filters, as the Fram cleaner kit is much harder to find !
OEM from K&N... I have not used it yet but it is just the same as you can purchase anywhere else for the premium price. I am new to K&N air filters so I will provide additional feedback if I find it does not work as advertised later on...
This product I've used in the past with great results. Better mileage and cost savings.
This stuff hasn't changed.The forumla and process has been around for ages, and works the same each time.My motorcyles air filter is very exposed due to the hypercharger, and it needed cleaned stat.Ordered this kit and washed, cleaned, oiled, and dried to perfection.Order yours today!
The power cleaner cleans well and sprays well, and the oil sprays nice and evenly. I just washed my filter in the sink...probably shouldn't have, but I did.
If you have the rechargable air filter, this is a must to clean and re-oil the filter.  IMHO you can't go wrong with K&N products.
Buy this if you have any K&N; filters. The only thing you have to be careful is that you don't spray TOO MUCH recharge fluid on the filter after you've cleaned it.Apparently I put too much and it made my MAF sensor to malfunction causing a CEL and dangerous engine stalls on the highway. I had to replace my MAF sensor (not cheap!) and went back to a plain paper filter for now until I learn to recharge the K&N; with the correct amount of fluid.
For my ATV I purchased the K & N air filter. My old foam type needed to be replaced. After using the K & N filter (which works better - both performance and cleaner) I needed to wash and re oil the filter. Since it's a K & N I wanted to use the K & N "recharge kit" which is designed for this filter. It was fast to clean and re oil unlike my foam type which took 2 days to dry out completely. I do live in the desert, but it only took about 3 hours to completely dry then I could re oil the K & N air filter. Note that if you do use the K & N air filters, be careful not to over oil them. I know some of my friends have had problems with the fuel injected systems that the mass air flow sensor fails if oil get on them. I don't have this problem because my ATV's engine is carbureted. I have carefully checked to make sure this air filter does keep the air clean, and found that it does. It's easy to see when you need to clean them. Just look to see if the red oil is changing to brown. I clean mine every 2 trips which I put almost 50 miles per trip in the dirt (which does get very dusty). Should you get a K & N Air Filter, buy this kit too.
This cleaner and oil works great.  I recently purchased a motorcycle which already had a K&N; filter in it, however it was extremely dirty from debris and soot.  This stuff cleaned it to look like new and I'm glad I only had to buy cleaner rather than a whole new filter.I put K&N; filters on all of my vehicles, so this is a worthwhile purchase to be able to clean all of them without worries.
I like this product and would buy it again and again, very well made and saved me a lot of money.
Having K&N in all my cars, you gotta have it. It's not used much, but I clean the filters every six months. Works well!
I purchased K&N filters for my cars and this cleaner cleans filter very well. Make sure you lay filter on top of paper towels to absorb excess oil. This will keep your MAF sensor from getting dirty with K&N Oil
The cleaner runs out long before the oil.  My son is now using a degreaser to clean and K&N oil to re-coat.  I may try this when this order runs out of cleaner.  5 stars for  the oil 3 total because of the ratio of oil to cleaner
This was 10 bucks cheaper at Amazon vs a local auto parts store.  If you use it properly and service your air filter as you should, you will not go wrong with this product.
Kit comes with cleaning spray and recharger oil.  Easy instructions.  It just takes time and patience for the filter to dry after washing.  You also need to plan ahead or drop a temporary air filter in your car in the time being when you are re-oiling your filter.
Personally I love the spray can vs other bottle. Have used this set for years and i love it.Sometimes i worry about it being too wet ..
Cleaned my filter out very easily.Can be a little messy but that's the nature of the beast.  Just plan to put some newspaper down or lean it against a fence after you spray it while its working.  Brought back that new purple filter color fast.Must have for an K&N; owner.
I have a K&N; filter on my G35's cold air intake as well as on my truck, and have always use this to clean and re-oil it.It really works well. The cleaning solution really breaks down the oil allowing it to be rinsed off fairly easily and t he aerosol can makes re-oiling a breeze.The only issue I have is I ALWAYS run out of cleaning solution before I run out of the air filter oil. Granted, this may be a good thing as it prevents you from finishing cleaning off your filter then realizing you have no oil to re-oil it, which would leave you in a tight spot if you need your car to work and you can't get more filter oil quickly.So, even though I complain about that, it's really being picky.
It cleans all the K&N filter products nicely and restores them to a like new luster.  Have yet to clean my 6 month old filter in my Civic Si, have used it regularly on the YZ250F
I used this on my wifes 06 corolla I also have K&N filters in our motorcycles and my truck.  I've used this product for years to clean all sorts of reusable filters from foam to fabric.  Works great and I like that the cleaning solution is relatively un-offensive meaning that you can use it in the kitchen before rinsing the filter.  Good stuff, can't go wrong with K&N products.
Use this product to recharge your K&N air filter.  I don't know of any other product I could use to recharge my filter.
handy little kit to keep the filters running good. simple directions and easy to clean. this is a must for anyone using these cold air filters
This is amazing stuff.  This is great stuff.  Pull the filter out of my 2013 Jeep and within min it was clean.  Love it.
Some of the other reviewers here prefer the aerosol, but I think the squeeze bottle is just fine for re-oiling a cleaned filter.  I don't know what everyone is complaining about.  This is something that's good to do while you have some yardwork or some reason to be outside since the filter needs to sit for about 15-20 minutes during the cleaning/oiling process.In the long run, if you keep your car long enough, one K&N; filter is cheaper than all of those disposables.
this is the cleaner and oil for kn, what more do you want? finger will hurt after using the spray bottle, so pony up more for the regular hand sprayer or aerosol type or even put the cleaner in a hand sprayer yourself. Be innovative people..
This is a must for anyone who has a K&N filter. Use cleaner to clean out filter,dry and then oil and ready to go.
The kit makes cleaning the K&N filters so much easier and cuts through the grease and grime better then average soaps without leaving a residue behind.
Have used this before but was having a hard time finding it. Excellent product, the only thing you have to be careful about is not putting to much oil on after you clean it. You will have a mess every time you ride if you do. Expect a little spray going down the road but it stops soon.
in the end I'll get the aerosol oil spray.  with a large filter, it's a pain to go lubing it rib by rib with this method.  It's efficient in not wasting oil, but still a pain.  good product however.the oil in here was good enough for me to lube the K&N; in my cherokee, z06, and harley.
The K&N; 99-5050 Filter Service Kit is all you need to keep your K&N; patented High-Performance air filter clean and performing at maximum efficiency.I have used K&N; Air Filters in my personal vehicles and also in my off-road competition vehicles for over 30 years -- with excellent results and superior performance in every instance, including better fuel mileage.The K&N; Air Filters should be serviced at approximately 25,000 miles --- they actually work just as well when they "look dirty", and they must be REALLY NASTY before the efficiency drops off.Take your time with the "Squeeze-Bottle" kit, and do EXACTLY as instructed -- your reward will be a cleaner-running engine that delivers all the power and efficiency that was built into it !!K&N; filters are proudly "Made in the USA" -- and known around the world as the finest filters that can be had at ANY price !!Amazon's speedy delivery is the icing on the cake !!
This Cleaner & Red Oil are needed for the K&N Filters.  Works extremely well.  The purchase will do two applications covering three years for me.
Amazon provides a hard to find cleaning kit for the K&N auto air filters. Directions that come with the kit are a helpful reminder. There is enough Cleaner solvent and Oil for more than one cleaning. so it is an effective way to have clean filter for better fuel mileage w/o having to go out and find an OEM replacement
this stuff cleaned my intake filter like a charm! next time i will buy an aerosol version though as this one is kind of dirty to use :)
What can you say about an accessory to service a K&N air filter? This is exactly what you need to properly service your filter. I have only used it once before, but I just ordered a spare filter to swap out between cleanings so I will do it much more often now. Actually, if anyone knows of a generic brand filter service kit, please comment and let me know.
K&N; Filter Care Service Kit - Squeeze BottleI bought the squeeze bottle version of the kit because I had heard the aerosol spray was difficult to meter accurately. I'm here to say that the squeeze bottle isn't a perfect solution either. I had to oil the Ducati Performance air filter for my 696, which is just a basic cylindrical filter except the "dirty" air comes in from the inside out. A typical conical filter on a car has the dirt collecting on the outside. The airbox on the 696 is set up so the dirt comes from the inside of the filter. This made it extremely difficult to oil properly.On a car filter, oiling the pleats evenly takes a lot of time and excess oil still tends to seep out. It takes some practice, time, and patience - probably a second filter doesn't hurt either.Overall: 4/5 stars, still difficult to oil the filter uniformly but easier to control versus the aerosol spray
I only wish that the oil was sold separately. I don't like the cleaner soap provided. The K&N filter system is a great idea for saving money if you plan to keep a vehicle long term. I have never seen a performance improvement verses a &#34;clean&#34; factory paper filter but this one is cleanable and if properly oiled will protect your engine the same as a paper one.
I got this kit never having used a lifetime air filter before and not sure what to think of it.  Man, does it give you peace of mind to know you don't have to find a new one every few months.  Just pull it out, clean it, re-oil it and good to go.
I have K&N filters on all my cars and I needed this recharge kit to clean and keep my cars running smooth.  This kit worked great and looking forward in keeping my air filters clean with this kit.
One of these kits will last you for your entire life.  Anybody using K&N; air filter MUST buy this as it's the essential way to keep it lasting the life of your car.  A+Cheers
This what you should do instead buying new filters. The cleaning steps are very easy and also when applying the oil on the filter
Works like it is supposed to.  I don't know if I really prefer the squeeze bottle to the spray oil, as both work.  The advantage is supposed to be that you are able to know how much oil your filter requires and can measure it out of the bottle.  I've only used the kit once on the filter on my boat, which is the stock filter and I have no idea the amount of oil it is "supposed" to have, so I just applied it as instructed like you normally would.  Good price on Amazon for the kit!
Does the job well. Comes with easy to understand instructions.Takes less than half an hour to do the job.
Used this before & it cleans good. You don't need to over do it with the oil. Make sure the filter is completely dried before applying.
Honesty, must work, I haven't use it yet; what I used was the K&N; filter for KIa Soul 2012 and was not good, my MPG went down too much, so I removed and put back the original. I was making 22 to 23 MPG in city and with that oil filter came to 18 to 20 in City.----  I was planning to buy another for my Elantra 2008, but with this test on the Kia, noway jose, good bye to K&N; filters.----  I don't have any thing against the Company Filter or Amazon; for me it doesn't work.  BTW, you have to spend time cleaning and buy quimicals like those two bottles and could hurt your engine, beside what expert or fans could says.
This kit made my 5-year-old K&N filter look like new. And it took only a few minutes with very little effort.
Use this for my K&N Air Filter for my Nissan Titan.  Got a few more horse out because of the K&N.  Oil filters good too.
Like I said in the title of this review what more can I say these product are far superior to anything else out there in the market as far as filters go they are number 1 in my book.  The kit comes with enough product for at least 2 cleanings even if you have the large filter just use the product according to the instructions and you are good to go.  Also let the filter dry COMPLETELY before putting the ol back on the filter.
Bought this for my Kawasaki Mean Streak. Wanted a lud horn. This one is very loud and I rate it at 3 stars only because of the tone. I order low tone but this one would be a high tone in my opinion. Sounds very sissy like, but it is loud. It would be nice to find a true horn aftermarket like the factory one. Oh well, this will work.
Easy to hook up and nice and loud. I mount them on mobility power chairs and scooters since the original horns are not loud enough to hear from more then two feet away
I admittedly didn't see the sound byte of the horn until now, and if I had heard it earlier, I would have thought differently. I installed this to have a lower, and hopefully louder tone in my horn. The factory horn was lower though. I realize this is probably more for motorcycles now, so on an Isuzu Trooper, it is a little pathetic. I blame this on myself though, and I realize the product is good for its intended audience. Just don't buy this if you havea  truck! The look of this horn, if you have it visible, is a plus, and the shipping and installation were a breeze.
If I wanted a SILVER colored horn like in the picture I supplied, I would have bought one of those. There are many of them for less than this.Fake! I am obviously upset.** UPDATE **: So, it is Dec 2012 and I am updating this. I found this exact same horn at the local auto parts store. It was black with the red stripe, and I bought it. Got home to swap out the horns and noticed the one I got on here was an FIAMM brand. So, I would guess whoever shipped me my stuff simply sent the wrong item. I never thought to check that it was the right brand, though.I have updated my star rating to 4. Can't find myself able to give it 5.
Thought I haven't officially used it much, it's still working.  It's consistent, responsive, and loud enough but I thought it would be louder (10 more decibels would have been 5 stars).
These lights are very bright and have a excellent warranty. They work great on the A post of jeep wranglers. They are very easy to install great directions and guides. These are very good off road  light.
What's to say..they are BRIGHT, and don't take up a lot of space...simple mounting, easy install, and they work when when I hit the switch...Only think I don't like is that the &#34;KC&#34; is in white...ended up taking a palm sander to get rid of the white paint to give it a &#34;blacked-out&#34; look
I gave these things a 2 star rating because we have 8 sets of them installed on our county patrol cars.  Not sure what the issue is but the bulbs are burning out at a pretty often rate.  I just had one officer tell me both his lights burnt out last night, 01/23.2014.  Maybe the 130 watt bulb is just getting too hot but we have lost about 8 to 10 bulbs within a years time.  Hope KC reads this and can do something about that issue.  Other than that, they are a great, powerful light that reaches out so you can see those darn deer ahead of you.  Be safe and maybe look for another type of light that will give you longer service life before you spend the money on these.
the lights look good they were easy to install and work great. you can light up any area you see fit
Again, miles of wire, easy instructions, everything you need for an install.  The SlimLites are great as they take up lees room.  The tucked behind my grill!
These KC&#8217;s light up dark & lonely places with brilliant, far reaching, white light even better than I had imagined they would. Install was easy on my &#8217;11 JK using Smittybilt 7690 brackets. The switch works great & adjustment of the beams was easy & positive with a 14mm wrench for the horizontal & a 13mm socket & extension for the vertical. Antenna interference with the passenger side light was avoided by angling the antenna back behind the light. Nice product!
Put these on my Jeep and they throw the light a great distance. The included wiring harness is great and makes install a breeze. The lens protectors are chunky and protect well without blocking light.
Looked at a lot of lights and settled on these.  They perform great and can't beat the warranty.  Only problem I have had are they are hard to get locked down once I have them aimed.
Snaps on easy, durable, hasn't melted yet.  It's rated to withstand the 130 watt bulbs, so I doubt I'll have any problems, and if so, 23 year warranty will cover it.  They look nicer than bare lights, but do block and dim the lights somewhat so I'll take them off when driving at night.
I have my daylighters mounted near the side pillars of my pickup and these guards clean up the look nicely. It also cuts down on the glare that shines onto the hood from my mounting location. I cant tell a huge difference on light output, so that is a plus. They lock on so secure that I have actually cut my hand on them trying to get them off. Wont lose them on the trail and its a nice deterrent to anyone looking to walk by and just pull it off to walk off with it.
I don't think KC's look right unless they have these....so pick them up!  Easy snap on part, and they look even better if you spray them all black.
I like them - YES the KC is bigger now than it was on older models of the guards IT IS AS SHOWN IN THE PICTURE and  I LIKE IT.They provide some protection - not a lot  but they do look good.I actually saw another set of these today on a Toyota FJ and thought how good they looked on the black lights they had. Then I saw a CJ with the old style ( there were aged ) the KC was smaller and the guards were holding up well after the years of use it was obvious they had.
The &#34;KC HiLiTES 7210 Black ABS 6&#34; Stone Guard &#34; fit as stated and they look good and I am thinking about buy ing another set of KC Light's and the Covers as well. Delivery was fast and no damage to the product.
I bought these to keep from having to remove the ugly yellow smiley face ones before turning on my daylighters. They fit my 6&#34; daylighters perfectly and clip on solidly.All KC products are high quality, could not believe they give a 23 year warranty on their line of lights!
This is perfect for those times when you are not able to reach the small handle on your camper from the manufacturer or have someone that has a hard time using the stairs.  It is really easy to install and even easier to use.  A great product.
have not in stalled this product yet but looks like it will do exactly what i need it to do.
It is always nice when a product shows up and turns out to be better than you thought.  This is higher quality than I expected for the price.Easy enough to install.  Only issue for me is that the screws go all the way through the wall.  Just barely mind you but never the less.  They are in a spot where nobody will come in contact with the points and I will likely just take the screws out, put a washer in to act a spacer and then there will be no screw points sticking out.
Woo-hoo!  I love these things.  I put two on my 2004 trailer, and am really glad I did!  Really makes coming down stairs a whole lot more secure.  These are super simple to install, with just four screws total.  And, they fold in either direction when towing, meaning that if you've got an awning assembly near your door, you can fold these closed over the door(s)! And, they make your rig look like a movie star trailer (no fooling, someone said that to me)!
Same handle and grip as the &#34;older&#34; unit on our 2003 Bigfoot truck camper, but the mounting base-plate has changed and would have required drilling new holes in the camper.  Luckily, I was able to disassemble the new unit and utilize the old base-plate and the old bolts that hold the handle to the base-plate.  The new unit utilizes a pin and friction washer to hold the handle to the base-plate.  Had to destroy the friction washer to remove the pin and separate the new handle from the base unit.  Then it was just a matter of attaching it to the old base-plate with the old hardware.  The foam grip on the handle lasted for ten years on the old one, hopefully this one will last as long!  Did not give it a five star since they've changed their base-plate mounting system from what they were using ten years ago.
Lexol leather conditioner did a fine job. I use the leather conditioner on the leather in my almost 4 year old car, as well as an old comfy leather arm chair. I put the product on the leather, wait a few minutes for it to get absorbed a bit, and then use a micro fiber towel to clean off. The Lexol leather conditioner did a fine job in cleaning and softening the leather.The price on the conditioner in the last twelve month ranged from $11.24 to $7.99, so the price as I write this review is very good.  Note on price research: I found a very helpful tool that shows me the history of Amazon prices, you can find it by searching from Amazon price history and pick the one with the camel in the name. I find it very helpful.A quick note on the spray vs cream packaging. In the past I have used leather conditioning creams, so I bought the spray to compare how it would work. I have to say that overall I like the conditioning cream better because I have more control over where the product is applied. This especially the case when I work inside of the home on my leather chair. When I get to the edges I have to be careful not to over spray.
Auto detail shops use this product that says a lot. Also I used it on my leather couch and it looks like new. I had some very badly dried areas and it took care of them. Make sure you use the cleaner first especially on older items. On new things it probably isn't necessary but if you have it use it anyway. Use clean cotton cloths and follow the directions.
I bought this based on the reviews. Though it seems to condition the leather, it didn't really seem to buff up the finish and restore my leather to its' original, or near new condition. After cleaning all the floors in my home, and all of my car's leather interior, I followed the directions on the package for conditioning and protecting the leather seats in my car.  While it does make the leather more supple and soft, it doesn't buff up to a shine, or even satin finish, Instead, it seems to leave a dull, chalky finish.
So i applied this according to instructions and wiped it off with dry cloth like it said, but the surface was sticky and left white resedue that i cant wash off.
Its a great leather conditioner, I use it all the time i highly recommend this product.  I am pleased with the ongoing results on my leather car seats.  Unfortunately i did not use this from amazon, because of the poor packaging, it leaked all over the place.
I used this after the Lexol cleaner, and it did a terrific job on our seats. It was easy to apply, and when buffed out, the material looked great.
I have been using this product for several years on my leather products and highly recommend it. I have an 2004 Chevy PU with 1/4 million miles and the leather seats are still in great shape, most pickup I see with leather have holes worn through from lack of care. I use it on my cars and leather furniture as well with the Lexol cleaner to preserver the life of the leather.
I bought this with the leather cleaner. I found it to be very good, but you have to wait for it to dry, which takes about a day. It does not stay as tacky as the leather honey conditioner which I also have bought. I feel the honey conditioner will be better in the long run, but if the leather is delicate the honey could potentially make it worse because it is very sticky and can wear the material as you rub it in. So in the long run, this is a great option.
Decades ago during high school and surfing, custom sandles were the thing.  Bought a nice pair and shoe maker recommended Lexol.  Fifty years?  Ok those sandles are gone but.....Used it ever since on shoes, chairs, jackets, and any other leather.  Inherited a two hundred year old leather book.  Lexol!  Amazing difference.Motorcycle friend had old (10 yr) favorite leather jacket, think he said $600, looked poor.  Couple doses of Lexol and once again re-incarnation proven true.  He was happy.Oh yes, don't forget your wallet.  My Dooney is ten years old and looking better than me.Wonder if it works on "live" leather?Addendum:For years I did not use cleaner then I tried some and now appreciate it's benefits. My car seats definitely need Lexol Cleaner, orange bottle, first. They are darker from rubbed on grime over months of body pressure.Cleaning brightens colors AND ADDS MOISTURE. By cleaning first you remove old oils mixed with dirt when that is removed the conditioner penetrates deeper and faster. Cleaner does not work like normal soap or deterent it cleans and restores and primes leather for conditioner. Just give it a try.Its a hassle and extra work but the result is obviously better. It might even be possible to use cleaner without conditoner the cleaner moisturizes too but conditioner seams to seal the surface after it dries unlike the cleaner. You will be surprised how much dirt is on the cloth after cleaning. I change cloths positions to use new clean areas as dirt is removed. A little cleaner goes a long ways, Chairs can get quite dirty from body oils I guess.
This stuff is a very good conditioner for your boots and other leather products. It was recommended to me by the local shoe repair guy. I'm very happy with it. I would definitely buy it again. It does seem to last for a while.
Updated January 20, 2013I use this product on my Flexsteel leather couch, a high-quality couch.  It's a super long couch because it is actually two loveseats assembled together.  Each loveseat has an arm, one left and the other right.  Putting them together makes it one giant piece.  It's a lot of leather and that's why I bought this large container.I found that I had to buff a LOT more than I expected.  It took days for the conditioner to completely sink in after application, but I applied a heck of a lot thinking I was saving time.  You should be aware that buffing will probably be required and it will take some time for the leather to absorb the conditioner.The result is remarkable.  The color of the leather seems more vibrant and it has a shine actually.  Ultimately, this is protective of the leather and will make it last a lot longer.  In the meantime, it makes the leather look richer.One thing you will have a lot of trouble figuring out based on looking at product information for a large piece of leather furniture is what type of product should be used on it.  If you have an expensive piece, most likely there won't be instructions for this.  That's because the manufacturer doesn't want to take chances by informing you which conditioner you may use.  The retail representatives that I questioned didn't know anything about treating leather.Lexol works just fine on an expensive leather couch as my experience continues to show.  This large container goes far.  I would not waste money on small highly-branded boutique products when in my experience this product has worked perfectly on very good leather.
Friend of mine who works with leather every single day told me a few options of products in order to care my car leather seats, I pic this brand of the options he gave me .. and so far I'm well pleased.
The leather sofa, love seat, chair and ottoman were faded and looking rough. One bottle of Lexol restored them to new condition. I cleaned some worn and stained areas with a good saddle soap with a day to dry. Then in one day I was able to go over the furniture with one coat. Use a dish sponge with the blue scrubber top. Use the sponge part, not the scrubber. The scrubber worked well with saddle soap to clean.Let dry for a day. Repeat. Expect the leather to darken. The white stains are curing salts that have worked their way out of the leather. They melt with the Lexol and return into the leather.The result is a buttery soft leather that looks great.
I applied this based on other users responses.  It seemed to soften the leather.  I will see how it goes with continued usage
The Lexol Leather conditioner contains special oils that rejuvenates and softens leather surfaces. It is easy to use and the instructions on the bottle provide the optimal application method. I have a leather wrapped steering wheel that has grown stiff due to its exposure to dry summer heat over the years. I had been using Black Magic's Leather Conditioner/Cleaner combo and some other OTC products without much success. The Lexol pH cleaner worked well to clean the leather, and the conditioner was just amazing. It turned the leather almost brand new and all of the creases were soft again. I recommend using a terry cloth or cotton cloth to apply it onto surfaces. The Lexol conditioner is an amber liquid that is only slightly more viscous than water and has a unique smell.Pros: Very easy to use, and works as advertised. It should be the only leather conditioner you use - the over the counter stuff doesn't work.Cons: Hard to find and expensive, but Amazon carries them at a low price.Overall: If you own any leather accessories or cars with interior leathers, Lexol pH cleaner and Lexol conditions are must-buy items.
My seats are ten years old so I cleaned the and applied this product and it soaks into the leather but does not leave a film.
LEXOL IS THE BEST CONDITIONER ON THE MARKET YOU CAN BUY AND AMAZON HAS IT AT THE BEST PRICE ,ITS THE BEST CONDITIONER YOU CAN BUY TO KEEP YOUR LEATHER SEATS FROM CRACKING AND LOOKING GREAT IN THE WINTER AND SUMMER MONTHS ,AND ALSO WITH THE HEATED SEATS KEEP IT SOFT ,SO IT DONT CRACK AND KEEP YOU FROM BUYING NEW SEATS ON THE DRIVER SIDE WHICH GETS WORN MOST TIMES.ALL THE BEST FOR 2013 AMAZON.COM
If you have leather seats in your car, this is the stuff you want to use on them. It gives them a silky smooth feel and a nice luster. Easy to apply too. No overwhelming odor like some leather products either. To me it makes my seats smell the way they did when they were new, so I guess the best description would be &#34;new car smell&#34;. As far as using it on any other leather items, I'm sure it would work great, but you'd have to take into account the car smell. Not sure you'd want your leather coat smelling like a car. :)My only negative quibble is the size of the bottle. It's huge. It will last for years. It would be nice if they offered it in a smaller size. (They might have one, but I couldn't find it.)
Yes. It smells kinda funny. Yeah, if you leave it sitting long enough, you'll have these fatty looking clumps in the liquid. No, they don't disappear after shaking. And still, after all those years, that bottle of Lexol conditioner still worked great on my MDX's leather. Between the Lexol cleaner and this conditioner, the 10 year old car's leather already looked newer. It can't save the glazing the driver's seat acquired from use, but all the other seats did manage to look like that brand new leather look; slightly matte, firm, but supple.For the price, I think Lexol conditioner's great. Leatherique's conditioner is quite a bit more expensive.
I'm a car freak but not a professional car freak. Maybe one day...Anyways... The professional car freaks recommend Lexol. I have been using it for years on my BMW M5, Honda S2000, Porsche Boxster S, etc. The seats are still in amazing condition - the M5 is a 2000 model so it's 12+ years old now and the seats look pristine. And I only use this once a year. If you used it more frequently, results would probably be even better.
I mainly got this product for my leather jacket that I haven&#8217;t used in a few years and looked faded and felt stiff. It was so stiff it started to warp and bend that I got worried it would stay that way or get ruined.When applying I used a terry sponge bonnet and as I applied the conditioner to the black jacket inside lining (testing) it first came on really wet. I got a little worried but let it sit for two minutes and eventually the leather absorbed it. Before I had applied the conditioner my jacket had a faded almost ashy black and after applying the product it brought out a nice deep rich color and think it looks better than when I first bought it. Plan on using this product on all my leather items.
This has to be one of the best leather care products out there. I have used it on my leather coat, car seats and shoes. Does a fantastic job of softening and conditioning the leather. Even protects my leather shoes from salt damage here in the midwest, where sidewalk and street salt can really ruin a pair of leather shoes in no time. Would recommend to anyone.
Love this product and I love the price.  I don't know how they have such a great product at this price but they do and I love it!  Will buy much more.
So far the product is doing what was advertised. I like the conditioning feel I am getting from the leather after application. I will be using this a lot more.
As with all lexol products...excellant quality and serves my needs extremely well.  This is by far the best leather conditioner (for the money) I have had the pleasure of using....I highly recommend all of lexol products.
I use this on my leather seats after cleaning them with the Lexol pH leather cleaner.  This is a great compliment to the cleaner and finished the perfect leather care in my car.  Couldn't be happier with it!Cheers
The people who installed the leather on my truck recommended Lexol to clean and condition it.  This renews the leather without giving that glossy look you see on some leather.  Works very well IMHO.
Works well w/o darkening leather. Product suggestes using another cleaner first, this cleans and conditions. I have used on car interior and recliner w/ good results.
I have owned an auto detail business for 9 years and this is my go to product for leather protection. It gives nice protection and dries fast. Can't go wrong with Lexol  products.
This and the Lexol Leather cleaner are the best solutions I've used for my car. However, I've only tried Lexol and Blue Magic. Blue Magic left the leather feeling a bit dry. However this Lexol gives the leather a good slick feel.The instructions state to apply then let sit for 15 minutes or so then "wiping off excess" as necessary. Granted, upon application it feels sticky and a little greasy, and 15 minutes of sitting doesn't resolve this so you can wipe down lightly with a dry cloth if you think it will help. However, I found for best results, apply the conditioner then let it sit on the leather for about a day (two if you can help it) and don't wipe down. I know this doesn't sound practical for most people but I do think it gives the best results for good feel and well conditioned leather.Use this after cleaning with Lexol leather cleaner or just on it's own if you think your leather is clean enough. I've also used this for leather shoes and it gives it a nice shine.
EDIT 09/2013: Reduced to 3 stars. This stuff really isn't for dyed leather. My grey auto seats started leaking a strange purple color. I cleaned this stuff off (using the Lexol cleaner) and switched to Leather Honey. The purple's disappeared mostly but still comes back when the seats get a little wet. Not sure if the Lexol caused it, but definitely wasn't helping. The Leather Honey gets 5 stars all the way for protection, but its a bit tougher to apply.Neighbor had same problem with Lexol on their dyed leather seats.Original Review:Have custom grey Katzin leather in my Jeep Wrangler, a bit over 1 yr old as of this posting.When I talked to the installer about care and likelihood of getting wet (either mud or rain), he mentioned a good quality conditioner should help mitigate any potential damage and suggested Lexol. I apply the Lexol conditioner about once/month, using the same rag which has become good and saturated over time.I've had a few bouts with mud over the last year or so, and each time the Lexol cleaner followed up with the conditioner works great, even after a few days of mud drying/caking on the seats.Last weekend, I left the doors and top off and got a good rain over night. I walked out in the morning to tie dye looking leather seats (a combination of purple/pink/grey) and about an inch of water pooling in each... Within a few hours the leather returned to normal color and after a quick coat of lexol, look brand new again. Highly recommend this product.
I have been useing this product for over 30 years on all my leather products and it is the best product on the market !! Amazon has the best price over all. You cant go wrong with Lexol and Amazon !!!
A liter of this stuff will last you a long time if you don't have many cars with leather seats. I just bought this for my lambskin leather jacket and my leather gloves. It seems to really soften up the leather. I think my jacket was really &#34;dry&#34; and it felt considerably heavier afterwards. The leather feels much more durable. My gloves are also much more water repellant and don't absorb water quite so quickly. I have no way of knowing if this is the best product on the market, but nonetheless it's pretty darned good!
The leather conditioner is great, but the price is a bit high for the amount in the bottle I think.
I bought this conditioner last year for my leather furniture and have been very happy with the results.  It does need to be applied every few months, but I've used it on a variety of leather surfaces (worn leather sofa, dining room chairs with leather padding, office chair) with excellent results.  As long as you don't apply it too thick, it won't leave an oily residue, and it blends into the leather very nicely.  I've gone through the original bottle and a refill, and am about to order another refill.For application, the Lexol sponges work great.  They can be rinsed and reused and last a long time.
I read with interest many of the other reviews.  It seems everyone but myself has heard of this brand.  I have been using car leather conditioner bought at the parts store on my truck seats, a couch, and two recliners.The car conditioner worked ok but was expensive and harder to apply.This just floats on with a small cloth.........I put in on rather heavy since my leather had not been treated for over 6 months.The difference was amazing.  My leather returned to it's new look and after a week I see no evidence of the smooth leather glow going away.
I used it on decent-looking leather seats of a 2003 Toyota Sienna.I bought both the cleaner and the conditioner and used them as described. Even if they did what they are supposed to do, I did not realize that. It has not made a difference appearance-wise.Hopefully the treatment will help keep them alive longer. Do I regret buying them? No. I do not.
We tried Lexol in a vehicle leather seating application favoring its price over the more expensive URAD product. The Lexol didn't seem to have as much lanolin as the URAD, and we don't know if there is any carnauba wax in the Lexol product but we noted there was less post-application sheen with the Lexol product.If you can stand the higher price, try the URAD product at least once. If you're a long-time hard-core Lexol user, stay with it - it seems to work OK. You really can't get too worked abut leather conditioners/polishes can you?!?!  (But we prefer URAD having tried both)
Well...typical of buying things on the internet, it wasn't as large as it looks, but it's still larger than what I've bought in the past for less money...so....I'm not griping. I have a great friend in the uphostery business and he swears by it, so I use it.
this product works just as well as other conditioners I have used at higher and lower pricing, it was convenient to order and not have to go to the store and buy something for my leather boots
After being in the auto detailing business for awhile and trying a lot of different leather conditioners I can say that this is the best conditioner that I have used. Really softens the leather and gets the leather back to a natural "off of the factory" look.
I use Lexol leather conditioner on the leather seats in the car and leather furniture. Makes the leather very soft and pliable.
I have used this stuff ever since it came out. It's not messy and doesn't stick. Great on Auto upholstery, (no suede).  SW
This was a good cleaner for Leather. It was so good my daughter borrowed it for her car and I have yet to get it back!
I have to say it worked really well. I'll have to get more when I run out.Pricy, but then again, I would hate to buy something and it does not work.5 Stars
This stuff works great!  You should use a little brush and lather it up then wipe it off.  Really cleans up the leather!
I bought this and the conditioner and I found them to work well. They definitely spruced up my nice older Stressless leather chairs.
This is an excellent product that leaves the leather clean and ready to be conditioned. Easy to apply and remove. I was very satisfied with the results.
I got this Lexol Leather pH Cleaner Spray offline at a local auto parts store...and I am glad I did.I start cleaning my car and the first thing I notice is the citrus smell.  Suddenly half through cleaning the passenger front seat the sprayer broke.  At this point the white cleaning rag I was using was still white and given I had not cleaned the seats in months I just returned it.So I went online and after much research orderedGriot's Garage 11259 Leather Care Spray Kit.  Well, the Griot cleaner cleaned old grime of the leather seats I had cleaned with the Lexol cleaner a week earlier.I have used a variety of leather cleaners over the years and in my experience this one does absolutely nothing.
The Lexol pH cleaner worked extremely well to clean automotive leather upholstery and surfaces. Just follow the instructions on the bottle and it does a fantastic job. Always use the pH cleaner before you apply the Lexol conditioner since you don't want to apply new oils over existing dirt. The pH cleaner comes out as a clear liquid that is more viscous than water. I recommend using a terry cloth sponge to create more lather than just using a cotton cloth or terry cloth. I have tried several over the counter leather cleaner/conditioners and Lexol beats them all.Pros: Cleans leather without drying it. Very easy to use.Cons: The product is a bit expensive and hard to find compared to the over-the-counter products, but it should be the only product to buy and Amazon carries it!Overall: If you own any leather accessories or cars with leather interiors, Lexol pH cleaner and Lexol conditioner should be on your list.
LEXOL IS THE BEST SRAY FOR CLEANING LEATHER SEATS IN YOU AUTOMOBILE AND KEEPING THEM FROM CRACKING IN THE SUMMER AND WINTER MONTHS ,WHILE KEEPINGB THEM MOIST AND PLIABLE AND SOFT,SO I WILL TELL ALL MY FRIENDS ABOUT LEXOL ,TO KEEP THEIR VEHICLE CLEAN.THANKS AGAIN AMAZON.COM.ALL THE BEST FOR 2013
A relatively thick, viscous liquid that cleans leather like crazy.  You only need just a bit on a wet rag, then it's off to the races cleaning your leather.  I use this on a leather couch, auto upholstery, shoes, boots and a leather jacket.It only cleans, but it does that well.  For protection you'll need something like Lexol Leather Conditioner (furniture, auto, jacket) or Nikwax (shoes and boots).A little goes a LONG way, doesn't take much to get the cleaning done.  One bottle has lasted me several years.
I have only used this to clean the leather seats in my car and for that it works perfectly!  This is the best I've ever used.  Most importantly it's pH balanced so it will not damage your leather like some other onces will.  I was turned onto this by some Porsche owners who swear by it and I completely understand why.  Non greasy, just great stuff!Cheers
There are so numerous spray leather cleaner and conditioner out there and I was curious to see how different they are.Here are my findings:1. All 5 spray leather cleaner and conditioner are priced between $7-9 for a 16 FL ounce bottle. This one is actually 16.9 FL OZ and cheaper than some of the other brands, so a good value.2. This one has no particular scent, which I prefer.3. The bottle holds nicely in the hands, it's very ergonomically designed.4. The spray nozzle is the nicest and best (big, sturdy, fine mist) of all the spray bottles I have tried.5. Since this is a cleaner only, you should follow with a leather conditioner (also stated on the back of the bottle), which I find a bit of a hassle. I'm a busy working mom and prefer to use a leather cleaner and conditioner in ONE, such as as the WhooHoo-CleanLeather Conditioner and Cleaner in One. Luxurious Leather Lotion for Your Designer and Fine Leather Goods. Protect Your Leather Investment. 15 FL OZ. Made in USA!.6. Because it's in a spray format, it's good for large leather items such as a sofa, which I used it for. For smaller and more expensive leather goods, I prefer to use the WhooHoo-Clean leather care. If I pay several hundred or thousands of dollars for a leather item, I want to keep it new looking for a long time!In my opinion, any real leather can and will benefit from a good leather care product (with high customer reviews!). Think about it, leather is like skin, it will get dry with time and particularly usage. Just pick one that fits your budget and use it regularly!
This company was recommended by the people who installed the leather seats in my truck.  It seems to clean the leather pretty well without being too sticky or messy.
I used both the cleaner and the conditioner as described but they did not make a difference on decent looking leather seats in my 2003 Sienna. If they made a difference I have not realized it.I do not regret buying these, I hope they will add to the life of the leather seats even though I have not observed a change in appearance.
Directions say work into foam, which never happened. I think I could have used tap water and got same results.
I use this product on the car's leather seats. The seats are a tan color and really show dirt and stains. This product cleans them up nice.
In the past I've ruined leather because I was not aware that household cleaners or even other cleaners that are supposedly for leather do not have the proper pH to care for leather. They end up damaging the leather and/or soaking into the pores of the leather and clogging them, making the leather tacky and shortening the life of it.This is not the case with this Lexol cleaner. It is the correct pH so will not harm leather. Further, it seems to help feed and treat the leather as it gently cleans.I have noticed a difference! The leather seems healthier after using this product for sure. Unless I hear about something better in the future, I will swear by this stuff for all of my leather furniture and car upholstery.Note, on the bottle it states - "Not intended for stain removal." So, please don't expect this product to remove stains. It's more of a general routine leather cleaner. It does clean, because when using a white cloth, I notice some dirt on the cloth while using this.Also, a tip from a leather pro I know-wait 30 minutes after using this before applying a conditioner. This will allow the leather to fully dry.
I had a set of these before but only the two ton. Needed another pair and these match up perfectly with dimensions for my 2-tons.
These stands will work well for most situations.  The only problem I ran into was that they weren't high enough for my application (which I should have known when buying).  The bigger stands that have a bigger capacity have more height.  These stands are good quality and do the job well.
These jacks are well constructed and easy to use.  Similar to most auto parts store brands.  Paint is thick and well coated, welds are superior, operation is smooth.
Great little jack stands - look and seem to be made as well as my Kobalt ones from Lowes, but cost half as much.  With free shipping on this, you really can't go wrong.  These are rather heavy, and I trust them to hold their rated load.  Get 'em!
As described, metal and design is great! Very sturdy and for my 2006 ZX3 it holds up very well. I recommend this product.
Nice stands at a nice price.  I use these during the winter when I store my sports cars; and in the Summer when I have occasion to work on them.
Did some caliper work and these kept the car up even on a small grade with no issues at all.
Like others it needs more notches as it is about an inch in between and when rolling truck onto a life you have to squeeze them in, Still all in all for the price it is a good buy
I got these and they do a great job, I just purchased them a week ago, no problems yet, they hold up my 2010 toyota corolla when changing my oil. I was looking for a good price and good review Jack stands, and I found them to be cheaper on amazon then going to my retail store.
A must have for the home mechanic.  Wish I had bought these years ago.  Solid construction, a steal for 20bucks
If you are underneath your car doing some work, or just doing some routine maintenance, you need a solid pair of stands and a good jack to safely lift your car.  I cannot believe how many people I have seen working on their car with a scissor jack that came as part of their vehicle maintenance pack.  If you value your life, you want to get yourself a nice sturdy pair of stands like these.  It takes no more than a minute to successfully jack up your car, align these jackstands up, and then lower the car back down onto them.  They are built VERY nicely and the capacity is more than enough for standard vehicles (I use them on my RX8).  The only thing I wish that it had was some sort of safety on the release.  Granted that when the weight of the car is on the stands it is near impossible to release the height, it would still be a nice bit of insurance.
THE JACK STANDS FELL WITH NOTHING ON THEM WHEN I BARELY SHOOK THEM. MADE IN CHINA JUNK. WASTE OF TIME. IF YOU VALUE YOUR LIFE BUY AMERICAN JACK STANDS.
Used this for my 325Ci and I didnt once hesitate being under the car. They are made just as good as the best brands.
I ordered and paid for next day air because I needed it this weekend.  It arrived, but it wasn't what I ordered.  I ordered a pair of jack stands.  I received an engine hoist leveler.I understand mistakes happen.. but it was the way the return has been handled that I have issues with.  UPS dropped it off, but I have to take it to the post office to send it back?  And I wasn't told if they'll wait to ship the right order until they receive this back via the slowest mail service.. so I have no idea when the replacement order will arrive.  A week?  Two weeks?This wasn't my mistake or even a defective product.. this was human error on their part.  They should have told me they'd IMMEDIATELY ship the replacements next day like I ordered.  So far I'm left hanging.  Should I go out locally and get what I need and then end up with an extra set?  Should I hold off a day because they're coming next day?  I don't know.. and that's the point and that's why I gave them one star.
I have used these on several vehicles lately, don't let the appearance of being light fool you, they held up a full sized Dodge van recently for two days while I changed a transmission without an issue whatsoever, and the price was great! Highly recommend
I have had no problems using these and they work as described.  I do not like, though, that you have to hammer in the retaining tab to prevent the platform arms from coming out.  I also do not see how these are really double locking.  I wish they came with a adapter for the saddle since the saddle area is pretty big, but I knew that these weren't completely flat saddles (I made an adapter).  I would recommend them, but know what you are getting before you pull the trigger on getting them.
My father has used Torin jacks for years, and I continued to keep it going. Ultra sturdy and solid, they can definitely take a beating and have held up my numerous cars. If I ever need to replace, whether by replacement (doubt it) or upgrading to a lift (I wish), I will be going with Torin again.
Old one was weathered and nasty looking. This one took it's place and looks great. It was about six inches longer then the old one.
Not much to say.  It fit and worked as it is designed to - was just a much better price on Amazon!
I bought this one as a spare just in case I break the new one. sucks when you break the strap in mid stream
Cheap and quick fix for those of you with aging pullstraps.  Ours were literally falling apart.  Sliding out the old and in with the new  took seconds.
We were in need of replacement awning pull strap and figured this would be a good brand.No problems with the length or the strap, the t slider piece however could be a little stifferand thicker to give a solid feel.  As it it does work fine I just worry that the strap willpull out of the awning slot.
bought this to use with a signal generator, and works great.  does just what I need.  will buy another if needed.
I have used a LOT of this type of equipment over the past 30+ years and this is one of the best for the price deals I have found.  I sure wish they were tad bit longer, but what can one expect?  They have a good strong cast wire and plug assembly (as pictured) and they used a very good quality wire of what looks to be at least an 18 ga wire, with good flexibility.  The alligator clips use a high quality end and should give a good long service life if not abused.  With a 3 foot lead length I assume they are designed mostly for use as a bench test lead set, but these will service any use where a 3 foot length will do the job.  Buy with confidence.... so far, I have never had a bad experience with anything from Elenco!  Not to mention that Amazon's policies will cover you if you are not satisfied..... highly likely you will NOT be disappointed.  Enjoy!
These are pretty nice test leads.  Banana on one side and small alligator clip on the other.  The wire is of decent quality as well as the alligator clips.  The teeth of the alligator clips mesh nicely and the insulating boots cover the clips well.  Overall a great buy.
For the past year, I have been using these with my Mastech power supply.  While I have mixed feelings about my Mastech power supply, the leads are fine. The cables are flexible enough and the clips feel reasonably precise.
They work and they were at a good price, so there is not much else to say. I bought these to replace a set that I've had for years and they were just plain worn-out. So far these appear to be a good replacement for my old set.
These are fairly solid lead cables. The cables themselves are are separate so they are an actual set or pair, where others i have worked with were still connected along the length of the main lead, each lead cable is about the thickness of a cheap USB cable.The banana clips are normal/common, the metal end is completely attached to the plastic part, i have had some where they come apart of pulled to hard, these are solid. Additionally the connection into the lead wire is very solid and non removable, i think it will hold up very well and not break lose.The alligator clip ends seem to be just fine. contrary to others results i have 2 pairs and the alligator ends are just fine, teeth all line up fine. the rubber insulator is actually fairly tight which is nice because it makes the clip easier to open and close. clips that have loose movable rubber insulator can actually be clumsy to open cause the rubber slips and slides under yours fingersOverall:Really wish they were combined leads not 2 separate wires and thicker gaugeGood cables, and i would still recommend them** If this review helped you please click the button below **
These are not your cheap run of the mill clips. They are very thick and durable; solder joints on clips are good too. This product is definitely well made.
OK
So often we are disappointed with the quality of what we receive, even when we paid a premium price for what we bought.  This time I was pleasantly surprised to get better than I had come to expect.  I received better than I had paid for in these test leads.Do enjoy!
Good clips nice wires.  Not the greatest but do the job. Ours are used mostly with automotive repair & mowers.
What can one say, test leads they work and they are priced right one recommendation is to sell a kit with an assortment of ends.
We use this an another set of test leads to insure our products meet QA standards before shipping them out to customers.  They work great, are durable and just the right length.
The wire used to make these test leads was not test lead wire; It is much stiffer. When attaching the leads to small circuit boards, you may need to support the leads so they do not tip the board on an angle.
these are pretty handy when troubleshooting, can free up a hand so you don't have to hold both leads to what ever you are checking.
These do not have the stackable banana plugs as pictured from Amazon.com.  You need to view the customer's pictures to see how these look.The build quality is cheap.  The quality of the wires itself is not as flexible as DMM test leads.  I use these on a bench power supply.  I will never use these on a DMM.If you plan on using these on a DMM, I would highly recommend you buy some Fluke test leads.
Great price, they work as advertised!
It was quick getting here, but I already painted the item and have not used it to see if it works well.
As filler goes this stuff is very convenient, as it's premixed and out of a tube. However, it doesn't take long (out of the tube) to set up. With this said, only use this stuff on very, very small jobs...
When used as directed!!.  This is a GLAZING putty not to be confused with something to fill dents with. This product should be limited to filling paint scratches/chips up to 6-8 mils. Anything deeper may not produce the desired result.A few observations; 1) Fresh product coming right out of the tube has the consistency of ketchup, and spreads just as easily-fight the tendency to &#34;grow&#34; the repair area with extra filler. 2) Apply with a flexible plastic spatula to get the thinest coat possible. 3) work quickly as it dries FAST. 4) Thicker areas of the application dry last-make sure it is totally dry before you sand. 4) you really need to sand with a flexible sanding block, or you will dig out the repair with uneven sanding pressure. 5) wet sand with the LIGHTEST of touch, as the product tends to ball up when wet when friction is applied to it.Other than that, a much better way to fill paint chips than a blob of touch up paint.
Dries fast and sands easily. No problem filling cracks in bondo or any other surface. Adheres well to most surfaces. i use a lot of it for small repairs.
this is another requirement or should i say step to doing the job right, this glaze was exactly what i needed for my repair work, and will purchase this product again, love it.
I repaired damaged exterior redwood house siding with Bondo in many places where bushes and trees had rubbed against the siding for decades, leaving deep, sweeping surface mars, some over 2' long and 1/2&#34; deep. Worked perfectly. Also great for patching holes in anything( yes, that includes cars). One car guy I know took 300 lbs of lead out of an older car repair and replaced the lead with Bondo saving that 300 lbs, the weight of two people(or one beer-gut from Wisconsin)! An instant gas mileage improvement.Bondo is nearly a wonder material if used correctly, and that is to use as little filler as possible. In metal, bring the repair surface as close as possible to original, then use Bondo to smooth. Use like putty in small wood and soft material repairs, but for larger and deeper repairs, drill small 1/4&#34; deep anchor holes at differing angles in the bottom/sides of the hole for the Bondo to &#34;grab&#34; onto.  It will then never come loose or fall out.  All craft work is deserving of our best efforts. Give it the respect it deserves by doing your best, and by using the best tools and materials.
If you need to fill in light scratches or pinholes in filler then this will work great. Dries quickly (if not too thick) and sands easily once dry. If you try to sand it before it is dry, it is going to clog up your sandpaper but once dry it sands well. Easy to use and minimal shrinkage.
Bondo in a tube is exactly what you would expect. It's Bondo in a tube. My experience in the past is that it's a one time use product. If you sit it on the shelf after opening it and using it most likely by the time you need it again it'll be hard. I only needed for a couple spots on the car, one where a tree length fell on it, and this product is perfect. Goes on easily, dries hard and is easy to sand. Saves you money from having to buy a large tub.Highly recommended.
it did the work, nothing special is just bondo, but it gets the job done, i used to cover to samll holes in the trunk of my accord, since i removed the H emblem sign.
got this to flush the brake fluid from my cbr and rebel and has worked great.  it was just the right amount for 2 bikes so overall a great purchase.  so far haven't noticed any brake loss with the new fluid so i expect it to hold well over time.
What you will be getting is Castrol DOT 4 Synthetic oil which you can get at the local auto parts store for half this price.Castrol GT LMA is the old name of the same product. When I called auto part stores for Castrol GT LMA they did not have it because it's the old name they are not familiar with.
Great stopping power! My brakes feel softer and spongier, but the stopping power much higher than before. It's so great that moderate pressure made the wheels skid while stopping and getting off the highway. Castrol is a trusted brand. It is a product you can confide in. By the way it is Made in Germany! It has to be well made or the Germans would not bother.
This is great stuff!  I used this to do a flush on my Lexus GS400 and it works great.Pros:Better braking performanceMixes with DOT3 and DOT4Castrol Brand so you know its good.Cons:NoneBuy with confidence and enjoy!
After installing a set of new brake lines, I flushed and bled my lines using this Castrol fluid.  I had a track day coming up, so I wanted to make sure that my brakes were as free of air and had fresh fluid as possible.  This fluid works great!  Through repeated track runs with heavy braking, I saw very little fade in the pedal, and no loss of fluid or air in the lines.  It is a bit less expensive than some of the other brands that are geared towards track use, which is fine for those of us who are constantly bleeding their lines before each race.  The only "problem" is that flushing lines is a bit difficult as this fluid is a similar color to the OEM fluid.  As others have mentioned, I did do some more research and realized I promoted a poor practice of adding a few drops of water based dye to the fluid to differentiate between old and new fluid.edit: Removed line "One remedy to this is to put a few drops of food coloring in the container and mix it up a bit so that the new fluid gets a bit darker." ... dont do this!
I use only 100% synthetic fluids for my 1990 Toyota Camry which I keep in mint condition since the day I bought it new in 1990. Mobil 1 Extended Performance motor oil. Royal Purple Max ATF Synthetic automatic transmission fluid, Royal Purple fully synthetic Power Steering fluid and Toyota 50/50 Anti-Freeze coolant.I won't give a lesson on why synthetic fluids are far superior to conventional fluids. I've had that argument WAY before auto manufacturers started REQUIRING synthetic fluids right from the factory. They are far superior.In the case of this brake fluid. I've compared all the spec. sheets on all the major brake fluids, and this one meets the highest standards. I just keep is simple with fluids and follow two rules. Change EVERY fluid on your vehicle yearly (more often n the case of the motor oil depending how much you drive) and use the BEST fluids available. THIS is the best brake fluid available.
Yea its good wax for the money and gives your car the protection your car needs. Reason why I say that is, I go by how it beads up when it rain. NOW having said that I waxed my car 1 month ago, I will see how long the shine and the beading lasts. If not just move on and try a different product.
This is the BEST stuff to use to polish your vehicle. It does not leave a waxy mess when trying to wipe it away after dried.There's really not much else to say. I will never use anything else for my vehicles. For a true showroom shine, get you some Liquid Glass.
i am using this in 40-50 degree weather so I think it's too cold to use this product so i only gave it a 4/5. i am assuming once it gets warm i will have a better experience.
I've waited a couple of months after using LG just to get a feel for its long term coverage. I'm pleased to say it's holding up well and I'm glad I purchased it. Be sure to read and follow tiny print instructions when applying it. I put  2 coats on verticle panels and 3 on the horizontal ones. Still beads like newly applied.
If you want the very best well this is the one.This is a first step you apply every week for one month and nothing else. Wait...The second month you apply some 3 hours after applying this product the Mothers Gold Carnanuba wax.You'll be amazed and very happy.After the above, apply this product every 6 months to a year.It's a basic
Preliminaries: New 2008 full size extended cab truck. Black paint. Just so you know this paint is in excellent condition before I did anything.I started withEagle One 2084018 NanoWax Sprayand decided that I needed to use something more substantial to keep the finish looking like new. So I moved on to a two step - one layer ofMeguiar's  A-1214 Car Cleaner/Paste Wax. 14 oz.and a follow on layer ofMeguiar's G12711 NXT Tech Wax - Paste.It looked good and I was proud of the way it turned out (all done by hand).Then I got theLiquid Glass LG200 Pre Cleaner 8 oz.andLiquid Glass LG100 Polish 16 oz.. WOW!Goes on very easy and was a breeze to take off even after sitting for up to half an hour.The truck looks just amazing! Truly a mirror finish!As I read up on detailing my vehicle I got sort of hooked on getting a deep and wet look. Meguiar's really was good but after all the reviews here I had to give this stuff a try.Get it and you won't be disappointed either.Darin
Read the reviews and had to try for myself on my new car.  Works GREAT!  Easy on, Easy off. Great protection, water just beads off. Can apply in hot sun, easy buff off to hi-quality shine. So easy, you don't mind applying again later for added protection(2nd coat). When dirty, rinse car with waterhose(if water doesn't bead up, time to apply Liquid Glass again, usually last more than 2months) and dry off with microfiber clothes.
This wax goes on and off very easily and leaves a truly classic look. It is not a "wet" look or the "I've covered my car in Saran wrap" look. It literally looks like you've coated your car with a sheet of glass. On the black car it is very lustrous and on the white one not so much but it still looks very good. After 4 months both cars are still beading like I just waxed them. I will be using this product from now on.
Man O Man this is just the best stuff! The slickest stuff around and is my only wax I use for all my cars and Im picky! Goes on easy!
Liquid Glass is a terrific polish that goes on easily, protects for months and actually creates a deeper shine with additional coats.  I don't know if I believe the hype that many coats of Liquid Glass create a scratch resistant shell on your paint, but as a meticulous car nut, I can say that Liquid Glass is the best polish I have ever come across.  This polish goes on easily with a microfiber cloth and comes off very easily with another microfiber cloth.  It is not a wax but rather a clear acrylic coating.  I highly recommend it.PROS: Long lastingDeep, superior shineEasy to apply / buff offCan be used in sunCONS: Cannot be used over existing coats of wax/polish (unless you use LG pre-cleaner)Fairly expensiveTough to remove cured polish once appliedI posted a picture of my Liquid Glassed blue Shelby above.  Good luck.
I used this product on my 2004 mini with 130K on it,  i was ompressed with how easy this was to use, i was able to apply by hand in less then 15 minutes to the entire car, i let it sit till it hazed up and then wiped it off, a very impressive shine with very little effort
Goes on easily, comes off easily and leaves a great wet shine to my black car.  If you want the best, you will have to pay for it.
I bought this polish for long time. when open the bottle it comes a blue creamy liquid, it show as its description how the shinny it was and easy to clean up. I compare to Mother's product, it looks with similar result but much less in price. Anyhow, it works as it is.
I clay barred, lightly cleaned surface with Liquid Glass Pre-Cleaner found here, Finished up with this product and my 2012 is cleaner than new. I kid you not. Follow these steps and admire you work.
Over the years I have tried just about every car wax available, at every price point.  Not that long ago I threw out the mostly unused bottles of just about everything else and stocked up on a few more cans of liquid glass.  Every now and then I will test out the latest and greatest but I keep coming back.In terms of shine, durability and protection, I simply have found nothing better.  A few years ago I noticed a friend's car had a wet paint shine to it and that is when I discovered this product.  I have since achieved the same results on all of my own vehicles of varying age and color.  It is a shine and slickness that people ask about.Recently, the good workers of PennDot were directing traffic over a recently painted yellow line.  Later I discovered lots of dreaded yellow speckles all over the lower quarter.  Thanks to a couple coats of liquid glass protecting my paint, I was able to easily remove what could have been a disaster.Sure, some of the pure caranuba waxes are nice, so long as you hardly ever take your garage queen further than the enclosed trailer.  What is nice about Liquid glass is that you do not need to reapply it every month to keep a great shine.Finally, I find that this is a very easy product to apply.  Follow the instructions and use the pre-cleaner the very first time you use this product and you will be good to go for a long time.  On certain colors (i.e. red) I sometimes get a bit of streaking.  Again just follow the instructions and you will find that a quick spray of water while buffing easily fixes that issue.I have no afiliation with Liquid Glass other than being an extremely satisfied customer.
I bought this after reading all the reviews on amazon about it all i can say is they are right a very easy to use product that gives a great Finnish especially when you use it for a while gets better every time you use it
Easy to apply, gives a beautiful mirror finish- and I really appreciate how this polish leaves my black SUV looking almost new.  It makes removing those dang dried up bugs so much easier. In the Arizona sun any vehicle's paint needs ALL the protection it can get- and Liquid Glass does the job.  I will repurchase this item.
Easy to put on, easy to remove, nice shiny glass look. Car lovers will appreciate the reward of their effort... even if it is fairly easy to do. notihing better than a clean shiny car. I do recommend it..
goes on very easy and small can has alot in it. price average for the amount you get. when you wash at car wash make sure to forego the wax options, makes hard for wax to stick properly. instuctions are clear but small print. enjoy!
This is the best polish available. It goes on smooth and cleans up easy. I would highly recommend this to anyone who needs auto polish. The shipping was extremely fast.
This is the easiest wax I have ever used. It makes for a brilliant shine. When you wash your car all the bugs just rinse off. It gives great protection to the paint. But it's the ease that makes this my fav.
Update on November 1st,2012: I am on my third bottle of Liquid Glass LG-100 & there is no going back to anything else for me at this point.  I even use this stuff on my windshield, it last longer than Rain-X while providing much better gliding action, rain just glide over the windshield. It's a nice feeling not having to use wipers.It's hard to write another review for an outstanding product with numerous positive feedbacks under its belt. But unlike most people I used Liquid Glass with a different approach. I used my Liquid Glass in conjunction with Blue Magic's TR3 which in my opinion is slightly more abrasive, which makes it a better scratch remover & a better glazing compound than the Liquid Glass which is a better paint sealer and/or protector.My entire detail process took 2 days. Day 1 was washing & claying followed by a thorough polishing job with Blue Magic's TR3. After the required 2 hrs cure for the TR3, Liquid Glass is applied with an orbital buffer that has Mequiar's W8006 polishing pad attached to it.Follow instructions & let the Liquid Glass "bake" in the sun with ambient temp above 70 degrees for a minimum 4 hrs.  I applied a second coat on Day 2 once the ambient reaches above 70, again let it bake for 4 hrs before applying 3rd coat.The end result is complete paint restoration that looks like no other wax job unlike anything I have ever seen. My 97 Chevy Dually now looks like a new truck with a brand new layer of clear coat paint over its once dull, faded paint.For as long as you are willing to invest the time by applying multiple coats & baking it for 4 hrs in between, you will never look back at "any" wax, paint sealer or polish etc out there. This is indeed the best there is, my search is over.
I have detailed cars for a luxury car dealerships and have used many different car waxes in my lifetime. This is the best paint protection I have used. It removes off trim easily and also is easy to apply. I have done three coats on my 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid so far and it looks great. This product is a Buy in my opinion. Better then the dealership's 700 dollar application of Xylon on my wife's' 2014 Honda Odyssey. Make sure you clean your vehicle with the pre cleaner and do a hand check to feel for &#34;bumps&#34; of dirt or other road grim before application. This is easy to wipe off as well, so it is quicker then hand waxing for me.
This product is nothing short of AMAZING!!!!! I've been a hard-core Maguire's Wax/Polish man for years, and detail cars often.  Over the years I've used Mother's, Maguire's, and a few others, and hands down, NOTHING compares to Liquid Glass...it just blows everything else away!It's easy to apply and remove and the crystal clear mirror finish it leaves is second to none!
I've tried just about every sealant (with the exception of NuFinish) to protect my cars finish. This is the easiest to apply and remove. I put 5 coats on my 2001 Jeep that's parked in the sun day after day, 5 coats on my new car that's protected in the garage. The old Jeeps look like a late model SUV now thanks to Liquid Gold and new headlights. Wax in the Southern sunshine has very low lasting power, so after I wash my cars, I just follow up with Macguires Quick Detail Spray. I'm sorry that I wasted my money on all the other &#34;sealants&#34; that were near backbreaking to remove, never lasted half as long, and never provided the new car shine. It's been around awhile, but it's performed better than any of the &#34;professional&#34;, highly rated products I've tried. The price may seem a bit high, but there's a lot of car coverage in one can.
I was frankly stunned bu how well this stuff works. I put it in my 2006 Dodge Caravan and within a mile the shudder was gone.
Noticed a big change after putting into the tranny.  not the cheapest but who wants to break down on the road
Got this for a co worker and his car had a delay from first to second even after a trans flush,after this and some Lube Gaurd WOW! It feels like riding in a new car!!!
It can't be magic to fix the problem right the way. It takes a little bit of mileage before it can solve out the problem. I treat it as a piece of tylenol. Its OK.
Like so many with Odyssey transmission problems, I tried this product as a last ditch effort.  It does appear to smooth the transmission to some degree, but it doesn't make the bigger issue with the shudder go away.  Obviously, this is not a miracle fluid and works within the boundaries of a somewhat normally function transmission. I believe my problem is with the torque converter, which this fluid cannot &#34;magically&#34; fix.
I bought this for my 97 f150 and was very surprised at the cheap price for a quality price. very impressed!
This is the stock fuel filter for many Ford vehicles, including my Explorer.  Located along the driver side frame rail, just under the driver's seat and behind the tire.  You will need one of these:5/16 In Fuel Line / Filter Disconnect Tool - Ford,KD Tools 3321 Ford Fuel Line Quick Disconnect, orOEM 25043 Fuel Line Disconnect Tool.Jack up the vehicle and secure it with jack stands.  Open the fuel fill cap, remove the fuel pump fuse (if applicable), and disconnect the negative battery terminal.  Have a drain pan handy to catch fuel that will run out of the lines.  Remove the line from the gas tank to the filter first.  Then remove the other end which leads to the engine.  If you have never changed the fuel filter, with age & corrosion, this may be harder to do than you think.  Some have reported that the quick disconnect fittings were stuck on and that they had to cut the fuel lines.  But with regular service, your future fuel filter changes will take only minutes.Safety equipment is optional.  If you don't care about gasoline getting on your skin, and in your eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, then don't wear any safety equipment.  If you have a water heater, or any other source of open flame with a pilot light, then you may want to check with your homeowners insurance before you blow the garage up.  IF you smoke.....well, enjoy your last cigarette.  Or it might actually end up being your very last cigarette.
Sets under the left side frame rail under the drivers door. (2005 Ford F150) ... If you have the proper filter wrench it's a very fast job.
Right part number and looks good.  Clean package box although the tube ends did not have the caps like Fram, but will take Motorcraft any day.
When it comes to a fuel filter, this is the best. Only filter that fits perfectly. Makes the job very easy. If your not sure, try another brand. It will work, but the secondary clips won't fit. It will be ok,  but not 100% perfect. Just get the right one, the Motorcraft. I am a certified Ford mechanic in Michigan and did hundreds of these. Don't fret over an extra couple dollars. This is the only fuel filter that goes on easy, and is the best for your Ford vechicle.  Like i say, try another brand and see for yourself. Bye!
I try to use only Motorcraft parts on my Crown Victoria so I went ahead and ordered this from Amazon as no local stores carry motorcraft.  It did not come with new clips which you will probably break removing the old filter so keep that in mind.
It fit my 2002 Ford Crown Vic Police Interceptor P71.Do this, it actually helped my car run smoother. You should have seen the jet black junk that came out of the "in" end of the filter when I dumped it out! How the filter was working, I don't know!I heard these filters are supposed to come with new hose clips, but neither of mine did on two separate orders.If you haven't done this before it can get messy with a pressurized fuel system (taking the gas cap off did little to relieve the pressure). Get a pan, rags, fire extinguisher, eye protection, and a hose to wash yourself off! It seems like the gas squirts out all over, and it does, but if you're quick enough, and wrap the hose in rags, you will have half a chance. NO OPEN FLAMES, SPARKS, HOT MUFFLERS, ETCETERA! DANGER!!! GAS, EXPLOSION, DEATH!There are clips on either end of the filter that LOOK like they come off, however, you can buy a little plastic set of "clip release" tools (Lisle 39400 Angled Disconnect Tool Set) that fit all of the clips on the car. You slide them into the hose and it spreads the clips for easy removal, and I reused mine again.
My Lincoln used to start well, run rough for a few seconds, and kill. After the second or third try, it would run perfectly. It turned out to be a fuel delivery problem. The problem was a dirty or partially plugged fuel filter that restricted fuel to the injectors until the fuel pump had run for a few seconds. On most Fords that use this filter, the big Crown Vics, the Mercury whatever, and the Lincoln Town Car, the fuel filter is located under the car on the passenger side in a special bracket attached to the frame of the car. It is up on the inside of the frame ahead of the right rear wheel. As far as I know, Ford uses two types of &#34;quick connectors&#34; to attach the fuel lines to the filter. Either type is simple. You can find a &#34;how to install&#34; video on You Tube. This maintenance part is probably the first place to look if you suspect a fuel delivery problem. This part is genuine Motorcraft, it came promptly at a good price, installed and fit perfectly, and resolved the starting problems on my Lincoln.
Top Motorcraft Product at half the normal price.  What isn't there to love?  With dirty fuel causing so many issues with new fuel injected cars I consider it cheap insurance to replace these at half the recommended interval.
A good, OEM replacement fuel filter for many Ford vehicles. Often overlooked as routine maintenance, fuel filters can (without warning) become clogged and, in turn, lead to vehicle reliability issues. This is especially true up norh, where seasonal mixes of gasoline affect the fuel system differently. Additionally, if you utilize E-85 ethanol in your vehicle, than you should be replacing these things more frequently than you may be used to. A final thought to extend the life of your new Motorcraft fuel filter...don't pump gas at station that is currently being re-fueled by a fuel tanker, as deposited fuel tank sediment can be stirred up in the process.
I use this in my 2005 Lincoln Town Car Signature Limited.Always use Motorcraft in a Ford/Lincoln/Mercury vehicle.This will last a long time, but you don't necessarily need toreplace it every year.  Fuel filters are best replaced after a certainmileage, not necessarily time.  If it's a few years old, replace itanyway.  But if not that old, replace after 30,000 miles sincelast replaced.  If neurotic about replacement or don't knowdate of last replacement, replace right away or after somelesser interval like 20,000 miles.  But if you believe thefilter might be in serious need, do replace it at once.This is a sturdy, solid unit but does not include a clip; canbuy that separately or your installer can locate it without a lotof fuss.
Below is the formula:1/3: to the manifold (using brake booster)1/3: to the fuel tank1/3: to the engineYour engine will be much cleaner. Remember: do it at night, otherwise, you will scare your neighbor with dark smoke.
I READ ALL THE POS FEEDBACK ON THIS PRODUCT AND HAD TO TRY SOME..THIS STUFF DOES WORK WELL..I HAVE A 1996 FORD RANGER WITH A ROUGH IDLE..POURED SOME IN THE TANK..WITHIN A DAY OR 2..THE IDLE SMOOTHENED OUT..GOT TO USE IT EVERY NOW AND THEN TO KEEP THEM INJECTORS CLEAN..BETTER THAN ANY FUEL INJECTOR CLEANER I EVER USED..IT WORKS GUYS
I used this on my pickup truck because I had been getting some hard starts and rough idles and decreased fuel economy.  For about the past 6 months, I have noticed about a 2mpg drop in fuel economy.A couple of my friends have used this stuff and claimed success, so I gave it a shot.  I added a can to the fuel tank, and half a can each to the crankcase and air intake.  Let it sit and drove it around.  It smoked like crazy as promised.Now, anecdotally, I do think it smoothed out my idle and I haven't had a hard start.  But, there is nothing I can quantify, and I am not sure that the improvements are not all psychological.  I think my truck runs better if I wax it.  My use also coincided with the end of winter, so the operating temperatures can account for the improvements, too.  I did not see an improvement in mpg.So, if this is where my story ended, I'd say give it a go.  If it works, great.  If not, you didn't lose too much.BUT...The second tank after using this I got a o2 sensor code and had to replace a downstream sensor.  To be fair, the truck has 100k, and this could just be the natural lifespan of the sensor.  Since I had already noticed a drop in mpg, the sensor was likely on its way out.  At the same time, I think it is rather interesting that it failed less than 300 miles after using this product when I've been driving around with the diminished mpg for several thousand miles.  My personal belief is that the big blast of smoke just pushed a failing sensor over the edge.So, no, I won't use this stuff again.  Most people have had fine luck, but its not worth the risk for me.
I read all the reviews how using this product... on the actual bottle you will find the instructions...I used 1 Oz per gallon of fresh gas. I didn't have any white smoke from my bike...I still need to run the motorcycle more often and see if clean property the dust of my carburetor.
I have a 2006 Toyota Matrix that would always seem like it was struggling to start. It was almost like it had a weak battery, but it tested fine. At idle the car would also vibrate just enough to rattle loose objects in the car. I used two cans in a 1 gal to 1 oz ratio and everything cleared right up! Just FYI a lot of brick and motor stores carry this product cheaper.
This product will clean out an engine that has minor problems. It wont rebuild a carb for you, but should eventually dissolve some shellac build-up if used regularly.
I like it as It is not much more then their flagship product stabil and can clean deposits and remove moisture from ones fuel system . Moisture should not be much of a problem anymore though because ethanol mixes with water . The bad news though is gas with ethanol does pickup water where in the old days it sat on the bottom of the tank with other contaminents . It is the contaminents that circulate in tanks nowadays this helps rid your fuel system of . If nothing else it makes me feel better to use it . I put it in all gasoline for all equipment and vehicles in my household especially that which is seasonal .Update April 30 , 2013 . I swear my truck is running much better . Almost like brand new after dumping 32 ozs in the 32 gallon tank and running it through . Now I am putting in one can . My friend  tried star brite star tron gasoline additive and swears by it . That is a little cheaper and you use 1/3 per gallon . I may try it but I can honestly say I am very pleased with this 70 year old additive that has consistently cleaned fuel systems , preserved gasoline and kept gas from separating from ethanol that picks up water . I am not one to spend money on frivolous items that do not produce . Sadly I do not drive enough miles to do a fair millage test but I would be interested if anyone has had a improvement . My friend on the star brite claims it adds about 1 to 2 mpg . I wonder if seafoam has any similar benefits ? In todays world that difference defers the cost a considerable amount . It will be hard to even try something else I have been so pleased with the Seafoam however .
I loved the process of seafoaming my car and plus you can definitely feel the difference in throttle response it does not last for long though as the quality of petrol in my country is really bad!
i use this cleaner on my 04 wrx,i run it through the intake,the gas and the oil,as far as running it through the oil you should only do it right before  an oil change as seafoam isnt a lubricant, if you put it in your oil do it before an oil change run your car for about 40 miles then change the oil and you will be goodrunning through your gas is self explanatory just dump it in:)for running through the intake i find the easiest way is to put in through the brake booster,when you do poor it in slowly  otherwise your car will die,the engine may stumble while pouring it in but that's fine,after you've done that shut the car off for about 10 minutes,after that start your car up and go for a drive and enjoy the smoke show,your car will run ten times better afterwords and it will idle smoother as well great product!
I bought this on advice from a blog post I had read, but I didn't have any noticeable results from it. I inherited an old Yamaha scooter that runs well but the acceleration is a little sluggish, and I hoped this might make some difference. I noticed nothing. Other people might have contamination in their carbs that can be cleared up with this stuff, but it did nothing for me.
I use it all the time.  I use it to basically flood my engine via the intake/vacuum line.  I let it suck up about 2/3 of the bottle slowly without it killing the engine and then last 1/3rd I just push the vacuum line completely in the bottle and let the engine die essentially.  Then I let it sit anywhere from 30mins to overnight.  Next time you start the car, it will be smoking white smoke (as it burns off all the carbon build up that it helped dissolve) for maybe 5-10mins.  I do this about ever 6mo or so.
Sea Foam is the best, My truck has 146,000 miles and was running rough. I used two bottles in two fill up in a row. Seems to have helped a lot, truck runs smoother gas mileage is better by 2+ mpg. you can find it a wal-mart for about 9.00 bottle. It worked for me!
This stuff is promoted as very good for the gasoline, oil, and carb cleaning.I don't know if it worked, but I put a whole bottle in my car, and aside from probably and hopefully cleaning the carb, did not really notice anything out of the ordinary.I recommend pouring this in your car at least once every 2 years, once a year when you have a modern engine.
did only as a gas additive, seemed to actually produce some results. engine seemed much smoother and the results lasted a good while after the additive. no change to mpg that was noticeable
A great product. When I used it didn`t know what to really expect because of some mixed reviews but I noticed a change inmediatly the engine made less noise and had a bit more power. Even my girlfriend felt the car running better (without knowing that I had done anything to the car). I would recommend to any body who feels there car isn`t as peppy as before its really worth trying, just use as recommended. Even do I only used it via brake booster and gas tank didn`t use it in the crankcase. Still great!!!
All the reviews and worries you might have of this product can be set to rest. This is O2 friendly so it won't mess up you cadalydic converters if you have any. I plan on buying another can next oil change.
I have previously used in: 1980 Honda CX500C to fix a rough idle, 2000 Suzuki SV650 to stabilize fuel, and a 2005 Chevy Cobalt to fix a problem with stalling at idle.
Not sure what this stuff is or why it works, but it does. I had a 1986 Honda Shadow that had a hard time starting up, and it would randomly choke out and die sometimes. Mechanic said I might need a carb job (super expensive, you have to dismantle the bike). I threw in some Seafoam (full can into an empty tank, just before refueling). Bike ran like new. HOW?Lots of other people have given dozens of incredible uses for Seafoam too, so I'm sure it will serve many other purposes as well.
I Always use this product. This stuff is great! When I bought my motorcycle, it was running a little rough & stalled at stop lights....but no more. Will not fill up without a little of this in the tank!
My Jeep has almost 138,000 miles on it and I used this product for the 1st time about a month ago.  The product really worked well.  My jeep idles a lot smoother and overall just feels different.  I also poured some in the gas tank and it must have really cleaned any gunk out of there because I drive my jeep the same route every month and this last time I averaged almost 20mpg, which is a lot better than the 17 I used to average.  I would suggest using at night though, because your neighbors may call the cops thinking there is a fire with the amount of smoke that comes out the exhaust.  I would also suggest looking up videos online on youtube and typing in seafoam jeep.  That's what I did, and it proved very instructional.
I ran a bottle through my boat engine.  The engine didn't burst into flames, but it also didn't get 30 extra horsepower.  I think I need a &#34;NOS&#34; sticker for that.But really - it's kind of hard to tell if the product works or not.  You have to go on faith, and I have faith that Sea Foam delivers a high-quality product.
I use this in my RV to both preserve the gas (from degradation with age) and to &#34;treat&#34; the engine and generator.
This great product keeps all of my gas powered vehicles and equipment running great. I absolutely love it! Thank you!
I bought my can of Seafoam locally, on the advice of those on the Yahama  Vino 125 owner's group. The engine on my Vino 125 scooter had been hard starting, and running rough- signs of a gummed up fuel system. I was hoping I could clean it out without having to disassemble everything to get at the carb, a major pain on the Vino. I added 2 ounces of Motor Tune to a full tank, and let the scooter run for an hour. And surprise, the engine smoothed out. No more coughing and sputtering. Started a lot easier after it cooled down, too.  I added the rest of the can of Motor Tune to the tank of my 2003 Honda Element, which, my mechanic tells me, could use a fuel injector cleaning. Might just save me a hundred bucks here.So what's in it? The MSDS (manufacturer's safety data sheet) says it's 40-60% "pale oil," 25-35% Naptha, and 10-20% IPA. Naptha is a light hydrocarbon fraction, lighter than gasoline. Lighter fluid and Coleman Fuel are naptha. Pale oil is a very light, heavily refined, pale yellow oil- several sources tell me that kerosene is pale oil. And IPA is just isopropyl alcohol. Amazingly simple- you could make up your own mix, which I might just do next time. (One experimenter who did a lot of testing suggests four parts diesel fuel, 2 parts naphtha, and 1 part "HEET"  brand IPA.) The IPA binds to any water in the tank or fuel line, I suspect the naptha dissolves varnish deposits, and the oil is a carrier, according to a mechanical engineer I spoke with.Incidentally, I found my can on sale at the local O'Reilly's for $4.99 for 16 ounces. If you shop around locally you may find a similar deal.
This stuff is awesome. I put my first bottle (about half of it) in my ATV which was running a little rough. Threw some in the fuel tank and then sprayed some (with a spray bottle) directly into the carb while running. Let it sit for 5 minutes and repeated. It instantly ran smoother and had better throttle response. I thought okay, not bad for a quick &#34;miracle in a bottle&#34;. So i went over to my weed wacker which would run like crap at anything over half throttle. I figured if this stuff could fix my weed wacker than it has my approval.  I added a little to the fuel and repeated the same process (spraying in the carb and letting it sit twice). It smoked a ton but ran like it was straight out of the box new. SOLD! I love this stuff.Long story short I bought three more bottles and put it in both of my vehicles, my snowblower, generator, leaf blower, lawn mower, outboard mower, and anything else with an engine. Everything runs like it is brand new. Forget bringing your stuff to get fixed by a mechanic. For cheap money up front you can do a little preventative maintenance and stabilize, clean the gunk out of your machines, and keep them running smoothly.When I put it in my vehicles, I threw a third of the bottle in the fuel tank, SLOOOOWLY (READ SLOWLY) dripped a third of the bottle in my vacuum line, and may toss the last third in the oil right before my next oil change. If you throw it in the oil you need to change the oil and filter within 100 miles or it will be bad for the engine. Don't put it in the vacuum line quickly or you will hydrolock your motor and destroy your engine. You will be fine as long as you slowly drip it. DO NOT &#34;slurp it&#34; by sticking the vacuum line in the bottle. People do this all over youtube and it's the wrong way to do it. That is a recipe for disaster.  Just buy it and you will love it.
My last car was pushing 165,000 miles and going very, very strong. I mean, I floored it all the time and was never merciful with that engine. Not only did I take good care of it, constantly clean it, and always use premium fuel, but I would use Sea Foam from time to time. A lot of engine cleaners are similar, but Sea Foam has been around for a long time and seems to be one the strongest and most reliable brands. And at around 8-12 dollars a can (depending on where you buy from), its totally worth it for me to use every now and then.Also, don't just pour it into the fuel and oil tanks. Thats great for regular maintenance every 1k miles or so, but either find out, have a friend, or figure out (youtube) where the brake booster vacuum line is that runs to your engine. Running Sea Foam through that is what its known for and will reeeallllllly clean out your engine.
I had to buy this from NAPA shops in past times and pay the full retail cost.Amazon now is offering this at a very competitive price and even has free shipping.That free shipping just involves getting enough items to get over the minimum limit which is really easy.So now I can get a product at a great price that I know works for me and get it delivered to my house for free.What more do you need?Thanks Amazon for  offering this item.
A few years ago I began to notice a loss of power and rough idling, and our mechanic found no problems... he basically just told us that Ethanol sucks... to be more exact, ethanol sucks energy out of your car by generating lots of vapor that condenses and turns into water inside your engine as the engine cools down. This can lead to all sort of bad things including rough idle, corrosion, reduced power and a failure to easily start.He recommended a couple product -- SeaFoam and BG44K -- which quickly took care of the problem by helping remove the water and cleaning the valves and fuel injectors too. I buy BG44K when found at a good price, and SeaFoam when I can't; put a can into the Mustang's tank every three or four months, and drop one into my wife's SUV at least once per year.If you have something similar going on and you know it is not a mechanical issue, give this stuff a try. Recommended based on our experience with it.
I would not have believed it if I didn't try it for myself. The Onan generator on my toy hauler would not start and I tried new gas, but the lights would blink that the generator needed service and would not stay running. I poured a little more than the recommended dose in the tank and kept starting the generator. After I felt I got some of the fuel into the generator carb I left it overnight. When I came out the next morning and started it the generator fired up, blew out some white smoke and ran like a champ. I let it run for an hour under full load of the A/C. The generator fires up every time now and runs great.
right after I put it in my car.  Later my mechanic decided it is the old water pump which broke and hit the piston valves??? Not this Sea Form. But still my mind is not clear. Why minutes after my car was gone? Very very expensive experience. Sea Form is safe? I have no proof it is bad so I give 4 stars. Why one star minus? Expensive...
My 1998 Mitsubishi Montero Sport has reached 100K miles and I needed to spoil her by buying some kind of engine treatment.  My mechanic recommend this product and I'll tell you that the engine runs a lot smoother.Also, when I apply gas I can feel the engine "struggle" less than before... it almost feels like a new engine.  I placed the treatment in the oil crankcase and in the gas tank as well.  An added feature is that it comes with a spill free spout but I still recommend a long funnel.Cons: a bit pricey when compared to it's competitors but we're only talking a few dollars.
I have used both cans of this product on different cars. The product results in a tremendous amount of emissions being spewed into the air when sucked into the vacuum system as described in the articles I read about the product before purchasing it. In addition to creating air pollution and drawing angry stares from neighbors, I am simply not convinced the product is effective.
I got tired of all the issues the ~10% ethanol garbage gas has caused, so I went with the recommendations I've read here and on various car sites, and have been using Sea Foam ever since.  I regularly put it in the tanks of my 3 cars, use it in my motorcycle, in my snow-blower and lawn-mower.  I saw the biggest difference in the snow-blower.  After only 1 season, it wouldn't start because the carb was gunked up.  And yes, I was using Sta-Bil in the tank on the off season.  But I never ran my seasonal stuff till the tank/carb was empty, I just put in some Sta-Bil and left it for ~6 months.  Now I put a couple ounces of Sea Foam in every time I fill the tank and it not only starts easier, but it starts every time.  I also noticed a difference after loading up my 12 year odl motorcycle with some Sea Foam and a clean tank of gas.  The idle was smoother and it revs smoother also.  I could go on, but I'll just say that I'm a believer, and have a case of this stuff in my basement.
This is like medicine for anything that runs on gas or diesel. I haven't tried it yet, but maybe I will rub some on my sore elbow one day! LOL
It Worked for Grandpa back in the day & Works just as good for me Today!I used Sea Foam to clean a number of Carburetors that had been gummed up by ethanol in today's gasoline.Worked awesome on both 2 and 4 stroke carbs!
Ok this stuff is down right AWESOME!!!! I added this wonder stuff to an old tired motor that was going to be pulled and rebuilt. Never pulled that motor out. Cleaned the carbon right out. Smokes like crazy while its doing its job and a few minutes later smokes gone and smooth running clean engine is what your left with. Works so well that a un named car repair shop uses it instead of doing the overhaul you paid for. Date line aired that
I ordered this before I was aware of Pri-G. I understand Sea Foam is much better than Sta-bil but not as good as Pri-G. Pri-g is MUCH more concentrated and therefore represents a better value. It is what I will be ordering in the future.
I have used this on my car, motorcycle, and even a scooter. This works well as part of a maintenance schedule.
Worked great on my BMW's leatherette. I have been told that soap and water works well for cleaning vinyl, but when i tried it out, i was left with mineral/water marks on my interior. Not only did the Vinylex take off the marks left from the last cleaning, but it left my leatherette looking new. It has a nice matte finish too, and its so cheap! Worked well on dirt too.
Most of the sprays  I have used in the past leave a sticky film on the dash, which ends up collecting more dust and dirt that has to be cleaned off.  No such problem when using Vinylex.  Easy to apply and performs outstandingly well!!!
I have used this for over one year now. It's way better than Armor All, which is what I grew up with.Leaves no residue and looks clean. It does seem to leave a crusty appearance after a long summer on dark charcoal color. Then again, it might not have been it that did that.
I use this product to mist onto my black spray in bed liner to give it a shine and prevent UV fading.  So far it has worked great for this purpose.
I highly recommend this, even though it does not have the most pleasant smell. This protects trim from UV damage while keeping a nice classy shine.
I've never used this product until recently, although I've become aware that it is preferred by many due to its non-silicone based formula.There's no way I'm able to comment on the long term protective qualities of this protectant - although eventually this review may get updated.I was deep cleaning the neglected interior of an older mid sized sedan. I started cleaning the dash and the rest of the vinyl interior by using a very damp - not soaking wet, hot, and somewhat weak mild soap solution.After I removed all of the dirt and grime and the vinyl was dry, I applied the Vinylex. The vinyl interior soaked up the protectant, and I found myself with half a bottle left over after doing 1 car - but again the interior had been neglected and hadn't been detailed in a while.The spray nozzle didn't spray evenly, and after taking it apart to try to understand why, I just conceded it to be a defect. Not the end of the world - and it did function somewhat but for over ten bucks I shouldn't have to deal w/ these types of petty issues. So I simply swapped sprayheads w/ one of my own.A light, quick buffing of the vinyl thereafter applying provided the ideal amount of sheen I was hoping for.(not greasy)
I have been using Vinylex for cleaning my vehicle's interior and exterior for several years now. I prefer to other products rubber/vinyl/plastic protectants as it doesn't leave much of a sheen once it dries (as compared to something like Armor All). It also reportedly protects against sun damage and while I don't have enough experience to confirm this is does keep things looking like new for a couple of months after an application.
I've been using this product for years, and it's the best out there. It is low gloss, and a little goes a LONG way. I use this on more than just my car. Basically anything made of plastic that I need to condition and protect, I apply this product to. In my opinion, the other major competitor that "armors everything" doesn't live up to the hype, and in fact can in some cases cause you more headaches than save you. Plus, it's gone up in price quite a bit. Pay a little more and buy a better product. The Lexol leather conditioner is also an excellent product, made by the same company. I will add that I prefer the spray bottles to the wipes for both.
Lexol Vinylex Protectant SprayLexol makes a variety of quality car care products, and Vinylex is no different. I've used their leather cleaner, leather protectant, and 2-in-1 leather protectant with great success, so I had high expectations for the Vinylex.The best way to describe Vinylex is that it is almost like 303 Aerospace Protectant, which I have used for over 12 years with good success. Vinylex is a white milky liquid that is applied to plastic and rubber to protect it from UV radiation and degradation. It's not supposed to contain silicone which can dry out dash board materials.I've used the Vinylex on polycarbonate, plastic car trim, dashboards, steering wheels, center consoles, and the plastic body panels on my Ducati Monster 696. It dries cleanly leaving no greasy residue or smell. There are no streaks either. However, I don't recommend using it directly on the grip area of a steering wheel or any other surface where friction is required for safety purposes. It does get somewhat slippery even when dry.The directions indicate to shake well, so there's probably some ingredients that settle. However, I recommend covering the nozzle with a cloth when you shake it because some product does come out. I just use old (but clean) cotton socks for applying the Vinylex. The best part about Vinylex is that there seems to be no off-gassing after applying it on the dashboard. When I tried Armor All products and even 303, it tended to leave a filmy residue on the inside of the windshield as it dried out. The 303 also had an odd smell, whereas Vinylex is almost totally odor-free. I also used Vinylex on the EPDM rubber door seals on my cars.Overall: 5/5 stars, highly recommended. I feel Vinylex is better than 303 Aerospace Protectant, but only time will tell after I observe the actual UV protection capabilities.
For years I hoarded the remaining ounce of Vinylex left in my garage until I found it on Amazon.  Vinylex is the best cleaner/protectant you can get for vinyl, rubber and plastic.  It is UV resistant and will prevent the sun from fading the aforementioned items' color.  I discovered Vinylex over twenty years ago for use on the vinyl seats of the '65 Mustang I had then; it really worked great to clean and protect.  Since then, I have discovered other uses for Vinylex including the cleaning/protecting of vinyl siding and on vehicle tires, dashboards and interior/exterior plastic trim.  The results are clean and classy looking without being over-the-top glossy.  I even went and bought the 1 gallon refill container, too.
I'd consider myself a novice in the personal car care crowd.  When I was ready to sell my 13 year old Honda CRV and I poured through amazon and other website for the best stuff to detail my car, to get the best resale price, and I came across this product.  I took the online advice of others and I can't say I'm more pleased.  Using this product on my honda made it look only a few years old and brought the plastic and vinyl pieces back to life.  On the interior, the dash was super slick but no oily.  I even used it on the exterior of the car.  The black plastic bumpers had faded to a light gray, but when I applied the vinylex, they went back to black.  Anyways, I did get top dollar for my honda using vinylex and other car car products.  I hope this review can help others.
As with all lexol products...excellant quality and works extremely well for general interior (namely dash) protection.  Serves my needs extremely well.  I highly recommend all of lexol products.
Used on Jeep, interior and exterior, great results.  I use on the bumper, fenders, hard-top cover, and the vinyl spare-tire cover.  It's an '09 Wrangler so all those pieces are faded looking after washing, not to the point that it's really noticeable until you spray the Vinylex on to see how much better it could look.  Also use it on all plastic and vinyl inside with good results.  It's not a super-shiny look on the exterior, just dark and clean, basically new looking.  It's not a greasy feeling like some other products I've used either, which I like.  I've gone an easy 3-4 weeks with it still looking really good.  By that time I usually have taken the Jeep out in the dirt/mud and have to wash again anyway and it's always necessary to re-apply after washing.  I also use this on our quads for a nice, new looking appearance.  Very easy to spray on and wipe off.  On a more porous surface like the Jeep bumper I need to spray on a bit more for good coverage.
I was turned onto this by some Porsche owners and gave it a try.  I use it on the soft top on my Boxster S and it makes the top look GREAT!  Gives it a nice black and also is protecting at the same time.  I highly recommend this to any soft top owner out there.Cheers
I decided to give this stuff a try after watching a video featuring a professional detailer. He suggested to use this stuff and to NEVER use anything by Armor All because the greasy film produces a greenhouse effect, trapping all the rays the sun puts out and basically cooks the plastic, causing premature aging, cracking, etc.. I foolishly started using Armor All about 3 years ago because it made the plastic in my car look really nice and had a deep, rich black color it was starting to lack. But then I gave Vinylex a try and once I removed the Armor All that was previously applied, I noticed that my circular air vents actually turned a little white. I can only assume the AA caused that. So I stripped all my interior plastic of the AA and used Vinylex and, depending on how much you apply, leaves a really nice matte finish with a slight bit of sheen, but with no glare in the windshield. The AA wipes I used, even if I wrung them out, still left a highly reflective shine on the dash.The best way I found to apply Vinylex is to take a good quality microfiber towel, fold it and then spray about 3 good squirts, rub it in and that should cover a whole door panel with ease. Then switch to a clean side of that microfiber and kinda wipe off or buff some of the wetness you may get on the plastic. Also use it on interior weather stripping where the doors shut-- mine were looking spotty with water and almost chalky, simply because I never bothered to clean them. The Vinylex made them look dark black and brand new. I have access to this stuff because the Toyota dealer I work at sells it and a lot of it. I've honestly never seen it anywhere else. My first impression of Vinylex was, "Eh, it's a cheap product, I can guarantee it", simply because of it's outward appearance. Trust me, it's good stuff.A co-worker of mine also uses the Lexol leather cleaner and conditioner for his leather couches.
Ive tried multiple products over the years and this is my favorite for plastic & vinyl interiors. It cleans and protects very well while leaving no excessively glossy finish like most other products, which is caused by the silicone content that sits on the surface and does not penetrate. This should be your preferred interior protectant if you really care about proper maintenance and not useless gloss.
I've been using this stuff for YEARS.  It works great, it prevents the &#34;fogging&#34; on windshields, and it lasts a good long time.  And since it's not silicone based, it's not one of those cheap products that just shines up the surfaces, and dries them out so they crack.  Over years of applications in several cars an in the house, I've never had cracking issues.It will never provide a super shiny surface like the cheaper competitors, but that's not what it's for.  It's for cleaning AND protecting the surfaces.
I've tried a lot of different products for interior detailing.This is the best.One tip is to use it sparingly. A little goes a long way.It leaves all vinyl and plastic looking great, without that artificial gloss and streaky mess like some other products.It also lasts a very long time, I only have to detail the interior a couple of times a year.
I used this for years on my car dash and other vinyl areas of the interior. I always thought it worked and protected pretty well although it does evaporate on to the inside of the windshield, which is annoying. It also doesn't seem to last very long and as it starts wearing off, the dash looks very dry.I've since found303 Aerospace Protectant 32oz, and that works much better. It doesn't seem to exhibit any of the aforementioned issues, ie., it doesn't seem to go on to the inside of the windshield, and the shine lasts longer.  It also protects from UV just as well, if not better.  Note that Vinylex contains silicone, which actually damages the vinyl/plastic over time.I'm definitely sold on 303 Protectant over Vinylex now although I really like the Lexol pH leather cleaner and Lexol leather conditioner for my leather.
cleaner seems to work pretty well, and the fabric guard repels water for quite some time. Light rain showers are easily repelled. Bird droppings were easily removed from the top as well, i have a feeling the guard made it easier.BEWARE OF OVER SPRAY. I recommend you cover all surrounding areas before applying this stuff. Its a pain, but its necessary. This stuff sticks to what it hits. I applied it to my top months ago and it still repels water.
I had close to a dozen pine tree sap spots all over my tonneau cover from being up in Northern Michigan from week vacation back in May.  Normal car washing didn't do a thing to remove them.  So I decided I'd try 303 and followed the instructions to the letter, sprayed on the Cleaner let soak, scrubbed a little, did a second application and sap spots softened and wiped right off. Impressed? Wait there's more... I then applied the Protectant, applied two coats and looks great, not ultra glossy, but semi-gloss and I like that very much, after only having on one day and while parked in my driveway for an hour while I took a quick ride on my Harley came home to find birds had decided what a nice thing to poop on!  Here's the even more impressive part, I broke out the Cleaner a few shoot on the &#34;effected&#34; area and wiped right off, didn't even have to re-apply the Protectant.  I'd by this again, No question!
I followed the directions for cleaning the top but it did not do much as far as cleaning off the grease from the top mechanism on the lower sides of my tan fabric top. It did however provide a nice protective water resistant coating when applied as others have done here instead of using the sprayer. I used a brush and coated the top as if painting it. This way it goes on heavier and does not cause over-spray on painted or glass surfaces.While I only gave it a 3 star I am sure it is as good as the Rag Top brand and a lot less expensive. It should also be noted that our top is very old and was not properly cared for before we bought the car so it very well may work a lot better on a newer top.
The 303 Products 30520 Convertible Fabric Top Cleaning and Care Kit is great for cleaning canvas tops.  I reccomend taping off anything you dont want overspray on with the protectant as that stuff is hard to get get off after it dries
I bought this for my 99 Corvette convertible top to get out some stains. I went by the directions and tried it twice but none of the stains were removed. The top was brighter and the conditioner worked well but the stains remained. Going to try soft scrub as someone suggested.
I used this on the front carpet in the car.The stuff works.. It removed &#34;ALL&#34; whatlooked like permanent stains with 2 applicationsone on top of the other.
Maybe I'm expecting too much but it requires multiple applicationswith drying in between. Am I using this product incorrectly?I'm cleaning the area around the left side foot rest in my Lexus.I use a super absorbant micro fiber cloth to blot and it does lightenthe dirt but I'm on my third application and it's still not totally clean.I even had it pre cleaned with a wet vac. I believe the dirt is just standardgrime from my flip flops (Florida) and not some sort of stain.Any suggestions?
Dissolves dirt instantly, like magic!, Has taken most of the stubborn stains others have not been able to. Price high, but worth it!
I used this products on numerous stains on my carpet. I followed the directions on the can and it removed all the old and new stains on my carpet. I will buy again!
I had some old stains on my car's carpeting.  Don't know what they were from but scrubbing with soap & water didn't budge them.  I even had the car detailed a few times and the spots remained.Sprayed this stuff on and they vanished before my eyes.  Now the old stained spots I sprayed look cleaner than the rest of it!
This is great stuff to use on small screws and adjustments to make sure they stay put.  Easy to remove when needed.
I used it on a small machine screw for my turn signal switch. Holds great! I don't have to worry about snapping the screw when i remove it again. Could not find it in any stores. Went to amazon and found it Thanks!
I use this on auto repairs to ensure a locked bolt.  it only takes a drop.  Loctite has the track record of providing a quality thread locking solution so I will continue to use it.  Enjoy!
If it moves and it shouldn't, Loctite.  I like to use this for small items that I will need to take apart in the future, but I do not want to have loosen up during use.  Like tiny screws in a gun or something else small and hard to replace.
I was simply delighted to FIND purple locktite. I needed the right product for set screws on rifle scopes. Purpose locktite is not to be had in local stores. Go for blue and you commit your set screws. I needed something that I could use with a small screw and remove if I needed to without stripping anything or resorting to heat guns. This is PERFECT.
When your trying to keep small screws from backing out, this is the one.The &#34;Blue&#34; type is still way to strong for small screws, and it will be very difficult to remove them.The &#34;Purple&#34; works great, holds the small screws securely, and allows them to be removed without destroying or bunging them up.
This thing leaks on first use. The hoses are not tight and the brake fluids leak everywhere under my hood. Lucky I put 3 towels around the brake fluid tank because I knew this would happen. Will not buy this again.
There is no swiveling between the cap, the tube and the bottle. In other words, when you screw/unscrew the cap onto the car's brake fluid container, there will be kinking on the tube itself. Untangling the kinks is a chore because the bottle is both quite big and heavy when it is filled with brake fluid. They should have designed with some quick-connect/disconnect like the compressor air hose. That would be an ideal solution, but I guess it will add to the cost for adding that feature. However, I doubt that it would cost much because I browsed through the air-hose connectors at Harbor Freight and they run typically a couple of bucks each. I might modify this bleeder with the air hose connector to address the problem.
This made my brake flush just as easy as an oil change. Fill it up, tighten everything up (really tight, more on that later) pressurize and open caliper bleed nipples one by one.Couple nit-picks:1: Tough to tell when you are running out of fluid in the resivoir. The pressure bottle is a thick plastic that's barely translucent. Nearly pumped air through the entire brake system at the end because I couldn't tell the pressurizer was dry of fresh fluid.2: They really need to ship with a roll of teflon plumbers tape. The connection between the hose and the adapter leaked for me, and I had it tight as could be.Overall a must have for DIY brake jobs. Couple things hold it back from being a 5-star product.
The quality of the Bleeder is awesome, however it will take hours upon hours if you plan on actually using this product to bleed your car's brake fluid. You are far better off either using a buddy to pump the brakes and you open the bleeder valve and then press the brakes in 5-10 times, and then closing the bleeder valve and repeat as necessary. You get a higher amount of fluid out each time than using this bleeder. After squeezing the top on it managed to keep 14 PSI (14.5 Recommended for by VW mechanics manual), which literally pushed out 10 drops every minute.If you aren't too sure how to bleed brakes as I stated above, just go on youtube and you'll see what I am talking about.Also the bleeder bottle you can find on amazon as an item frequently bought with this item is worth the money.
Used this to backfill our aircraft's hydraulic system. It worked flawlessly and we avoided having to bleed the system of air bubbles because there were none. This saved a lot of time and labor. Fantastic product!
came on time excellent quality works well with the multi meter i would  recommend this product to any one who asks about them
These test leads were way too wimpy for automotive use. Ifter a couple of them pulled apart then I just threw the rest of them out. Low grade product.
I purchased 2 packs and I'm quite happy with these. I didn't measure the wire size but they are larger and heaver than a set I bought several years ago from another site.The clips are attracted to a magnet so I know they are not Aluminium and could probably be souldered if I wanted to (that's good).  I checked them with a Ohm meter and the connections were all good. The boot is soft and flexible. Well worth the price for those of us that are DIY's.
This "Test Lead Set" is OK for light use and as temporary jumpers, but the thin wires give me a lot of concern about the long term durability of these. I do like that the plastic insulation covers the clips and the small size allows them to be used in fairly tight places.I did not have any bad jumpers out of the bag and the price was reasonable, but I will likely try to find a better quality set as well.CFH
CHEEP
These are light duty jumpers but will work for occasional use. There are times when the voltmeter needs to be connected and you cannot hold the leads. These are fine for that.
These are a good accessory to have because the clips are decent quality and the varied colors are helpful in keeping track of all the wires.
I was sort expecting some rather poorly made and low quality clips, I was sure wrong.  These are really well made for the price and I am sure that you will NOT be disappointed.  Enjoy.
The perfect size for my projects and well built. The price is 1/3rd what I've seen at other stores and with Amazon Prime I've been stocking up on everything :)
Look everybody's looking for a good lead, look no more you found it. If looking for a lead on a good job sorry it will not work for that.
Nothing spectacular.  They work, they are as advertised, and they are a good value. The cables have a strange "feel" to them that will leave a residue on your hands.
can't have too many of these guys, a must if you do any electronics work, tinkering. seem to be of good quality and hold on well.
yes, they are wire leads with alligator clips, so if that's your only standard for giving them a good rating...otherwise, trying to use these as jumper wires in electrical work is useless since they have so much resistance due to the very small gauge wire and shoddy connections. they make good clips for hanging paper, lol
These are not the worst ever but not the best. The rubber over the clips slides off and moves around very easy, the wire is very small with a very cheap connection to the clip. I have also found they do not hold small wires well such as creating a test connection to a resistor or something with a similar diameter wire lead. If you are looking for a cheap wire set for casual use or testing these will work but if you need something for more serious use then proceed with cation
These are nice short leads with alligator clips on each end.  They seem to be sized perfectly for electronics use.  But what if you wanted them for something more.. well.. personal?  You see my point?  You can probably see it better if you're younger and more active in.. well.. the pursuit of happy happy happy.  In that case just lengthen them and stop complaining.  Some people,..
Great product. Fast shipping
Easy application, Easy buff, doesnt dry too fast like some others ive used and I have had the privilege of using this wax for over 10 years.
Easy on,easy off.  Make sure you use lot of clean microfibert rags.  My show is so shiny is practically glows in the dark from this carnuba wax.
This wax, used in conjunction with some type of pre-wax cleanser, in this case P21S Paintwork cleanser, this wax provides amazing finish shine and protection. I keep my car garaged so I can't say as much as I'd like on durability, but on a garaged car that I was once a week (with only soft water) this stuff has lasted me MONTHS. My car continues to look like I just waxed it after I wash it. I highly recommend this wax.
I put this product on after applying a paint sealant and if gives the car a very nice gloss. It is super easy to apply and remove. What I really like about it is that it does not show fingerprints at all. on my Porsche 911 it would always show fingerprints in the area of the door where we push to close the doors or trunk area, after applying the P21S it no longer shows fingerprints. Generally speaking the carnauba waxes don't last very long but that is not an issue for me since my car is pretty small and doing a full wax doesn't take me very long at all so I can apply a wax like this once a month since it is so easy to put on and remove. This is my first experience with carnauba wax and certainly won't be my last. Yes it is a bit more expensive but this container will last a very long time
This wax is great - no white junk on the black trim, easily applied and buffed.  I love the shine... wish it would last a little longer.  However, it does add 'pop'!!!
Very nice, I am hopeful it holds up over the winter. It is very easy to put on and buff, smells nice. I used the wax after using a clay bar on my paint and the results were very good. I believe it is best to do as much prep as possible before you wax to get the best results. This is a very good product.
This applies so easily and comes off even easier.  Usually it takes me 30 minutes to wax the car but this has dropped the waxing time to less than 15 minutes.  Super easy to apply and comes off in just one wipe.  It really helps to bead the water.  I think it lasts for a few months.  This stuff rocks!
I have used many, many paste waxes over the years as I am a detailing fanatic. This is by far the easiest wax to apply, and remove with excellent results. All you car freaks out there need to try this product!
This is a very good quality wax, for the price, you get easy application, and easy buff, it gives a great shine, doesn&#8217;t last long though, especially if the vehicle is exposed to the sun regularly
My son bought this after reading about it in a car magazine. He absolutely loves it, and wouldn't trade it for anything else. This definitely does the job, and seems to be much easier to get on and off the car, compared to some other vehicle waxes. It shines much better and lasts longer than several others he has tried. I would definitely recommend this.
Based on some forum posts, I originally bought this product to use soley on wheels to reduce brake dust build-up. Although it was okay for these purposes, I thought I would try it on the whole car. I was not disappointed- easy to apply and good durability.
Love this!  Does what everyone says.  Puts a polish and shine that lasts 3-6 months.  Makes new cars staybright and old oxidized cars 'almost' look new.  What's great is just rub on and buff off in 15 min., and you use only a capful per 3 sq/ft.  Water beads up and rolls off, or gets blown off while driving(water flies off the windshield). Between waxing, add a capful to bucket of clean water and wash your car. MUST dry car immediately with microfiber cloths so no spots will form.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!  Great shipping by AMAZON and VENDOR.
What can I say that has not already Been said.  I love this product and will use it till it is gone then buy some more.
this stuff is liquid gold. don't mind spending a couple hours detailing? this'll make your panels shine like mirrors... it's all i'll use. now just need to get rid of the older, inferior product i bought....
I gave this 4 stars because it is a great, gentle, all in one protectant.  It performs as promised.  Would not hesitate to get it.  One thing for sure.....  If you want a 5 STAR product, get the KLASSE Sealant/Protectant in the Silver jug.  It is fantastic, and if I was only going to get ONE KLASSE product, it would be the Sealant just mentioned.  The silver bottle!  Red bottle comes in at one step behind.  But both are good.
Having used other Klasse products, I recently bought this for my daily driver. The instructions caution you to use the product sparingly- too much and it's difficult to remove. Just wipe the excess with a damp cloth. Despite this challenge, it left a nice durable shine.
Im writing this review because I read the negatives that some peoole have with this product. U am here to say otherwise.The first is someone stated they are having issues with this sealant causing swirls. No liquid, in any way, will ever put swirls in a car. The one product that wi is the applicator you are using to apply the product. Always make sure you have a good microfiber or foam applicator.Second, and the one people have the most difficulty with, is how hard it is to wipe this off. This is a wipe on wipe off product that applies very very thinly to your car. The proper application is to dampen your applicator with water, put some klasse in a small spray bottle and spritz it on the applicator. Then apply to a small section and immediately wipe off. The longer you wait, the harder it will be to remove.This stuff is meant to last and it does. Traditional waxes would have to be applied on the entire car and then you would wait and then wipe off. This is a sealant, it requires little time to cure or adhere to your paint.I use this and a 33oz bottle I figure will last me at least 5 years, applying one coat twice a year on a mid size sedan.Klasse is very slick. After a rainfall, the only thing that is wet afterwards is the trunk and center of the roof, as those are the only flat parts.It also gives off a great shine and lasts me 6 months with washing twice a week.If there are some spots you missed and the product has dried on or is too hard to remove, simply apply more and rub off.
Read a few of the reviews and checked out some of the detailer forum and decided to give KGS a try.  I know that is product has been around for many years and I kick my self for not trying it sooner.  This stuff is just great.  I read on how difficult it is to work with and I must say I found it to be a piece of cake.It was easy to apply and wipe off (I did it by hand). It took me about 90 minutes to do the All in One and the Sealant (mostly because you have to wait 30 minutes for the sealant to fully dry). However, make sure you use very little. Be sure have plenty of light (not sun light) when applying. I only applied one coat of the AIO and one coat of the KGS.  I want to see how long it last before I need to reapply to see its longevity.
I was a touch skeptical. But I can afford to throw it out if I don't like it.  Well I can say, I will NOT be throwing this out!  I was so impressed with how my cars looked when I was done that I had to ask my self. Why didn't I buy this sooner. And it is true. A little goes a long way.
Installed these on my 2002 Jeep TJ and really love them. Huge improvement over the stock lights. So good that I spent quite a bit of time adjusting them down to avoid blinding on coming traffic. Well worth the money.
Wranglers are not known for great headlights, these will fix this.  Takes about ten minutes to replace the stock units.  These have a great beam pattern and allow you to ditch the sealed beam lights.
Outstanding lights, I installed these on an MG TD, they fit just fine and night driving is safer. I used Dorman 84790 sockets and I wired the ground to chassis rather than to the bucket. Couldn't be happier with the result, great lights.
My rare 1970 Chevy is about to get upgraded headlights. Have not installed them yet so I can't say I love them yet. From what I've seen, these DOT approved, glass lens, metal bodied units, with heavy dust covers, will not be noticeable to a novice eye. Look at the photos on the desription page, there were no surprises for me. "Cool Nova."HELLA 002395301 Vision Plus 165mm High/Low Beam 12V Halogen Conversion Headlamp (HB2)x 2.
If you are looking to upgrade from sealed beam headlights to replaceable bulb halogen types, this is the way to go. Far more light is transferred to the road and ahead than before and with the same wattage bulbs.
I have a 2005 Jeep Wrangler TJ Rubicon and this is perfect for converting the regular headlights/bulbs to aftermarket HID bulbs. The fit is perfect and, with the HID bulbs, it's extremely bright. In fact, it's so bright I am concerned I might get stopped by the cops (tip: stay with 35W HID bulbs and don't get the 55W HID bulbs).Highly recommend.
What a terrific and not very expensive upgrade to my MX5 headlights.  Much improved light output over sealed beam.  I have not tried the Euro version which purportedly gives even more light output; but these are for me a very satisfactory upgrade.  Notable improvement.
I put these in my '03 TJ Jeep Wrangler.  They fit perfect and work exactly as you'd expect they should.  I installed a set of 55w HIDs in them and the light output is tremendous.
I bought these horns to replace the weak sounding horn that Toyota puts in the Corolla, Matrix, Prius, Yaris, ect.. These horns are very load to say the least. The Hella box included one low tone horn and one high tone horn. It also included instructions and a single Bosch style relay.There is NO wiring of any kind included with this purchase (this is why I gave it a 4 star). I made my own wiring harness which included a 30 amp fusible link, and the included relay and a relay socket. The following link is to the picture of my install on my 2006 Toyota Matrix XR:[...]Make sure you use the included relay in your install. I know some people have just used the existing single horn wire (not using relay), but these new horns have a pretty heavy amp draw! The last thing you want to do is mess up your factory wiring because of some horns. Do it the right way, and follow the instructions! Your horns will also sound better.You can not beat the price and sound quality of these horns! They will get your attention, I can promise you that.  I do recommend these horns!
I was expecting better tone  that does not mean it do not do the job .. it does and does it pretty good  but I used to have set of those black hella horns and I like that tone more than this one ..  maybe it's just matter of appreciation ..  BTW others are half price of this ones ..
Installted this horn kit on my wife's truck after my son installed small car horn in it (beep beep).  Now her truck sounds like a truck should and is plenty loud.  I wish the low frequency horn had a lower frequency, but it is acceptable.
I mounted these behind the front grill whereas the original single horn was in the engine compartment.  It is an improvement on the sound level but not as much as I expected.  I did use the provided relay and ran 12 gauge wiring (original was somewhere between 14-16 gauge) that did not rely on the original horn wiring.The horns are well made and I expect them to last the life of the vehicle.  I only gave them 3 stars though because the sound is not the ear splitting &#34;wake up and pay attention to what you are doing&#34; volume that I was expecting.  So even though I will keep them I will probably be looking for something that is even louder.
they work - and increase the volume of blast from my bike - but be prepared to sort out the wiring on your own ...
I bought these long ago, but just got to installing them.They are noticeably louder than stock. It feels like the metal on my 1994 Nissan D21 Hardbody vibrates just a bit when the horn honks now, too.As a note: It turns out I did not need to use the relays and other parts. The existing wiring provides adequate power to rock these dudes.
The relay setup is a breeze, if you want to make things easy just connect the aux plug directly to the power plug & horn will work at all times, rather than just when the car is on. You CANNOT take the bolt off on the back, dont try to, the covers can be removed and painted with ease by removing the black screws around the bezel. Also, we cut & drilled a new hole on the bracket to place them where we wanted them & that bracket is made of reinforced Steele & took forever to drill through. Excellent product
Yes these horns, and any other Hella Supertone horns you find "new" will be made in China. I was slightly worried when I first ordered because I did my research and knew this was the case. I ordered anyways because of the lack of reviews on other types of horns out there. I put these on the front of my Hyundai Elantra and completely removed the stock horn.Keep in mind that the only thing that comes in the box is a pair of horns (high tone and low tone) and a relay. USE THE RELAY. You might think that the power going to the stock horn is sufficient but run a volt meter to it, when the horn is pressed, and chances are you are getting less than 12V. Just as you would think the extra power just creates a louder horn.I got all of my supplies from Home Depot. A 36x1" bar of steel and 2 nuts and bolts. I cut this down and drilled two holes to mount my horns to because I didn't have room in the stock location. I also got a spool of red wire and a spool of black wire 14 gauge (a little oversized, you'd be fine with 16 or 18), some heat shrink, and connectors to plug into the horn, relay, and attach to the battery and grounding points. I took my time and made sure that all of my connections were crimped, soldered, and shrinked very well. I found a location by the battery for the relay and hooked everything up.These horns sound great. With the dual tones alone more people will notice these but they are probably 50% louder than my stock horn. The quality looks fantastic. I would certainly order another set. Install took me ~2 hours including run time to home depot and I was taking my time.Just Google search for the wiring diagram and ideas of how to mount them.[...]
It just makes sense.They're loud enough. They're red. They're Hella so they're German or something. Why wouldn't you want them
The reviewers here who say to remove the black lens covering are not increasing their ability to see better, only increasing the glare to other drivers.  They are also breaking the seal  and allowing water intrusion to do so, for no benefit.The light pattern of these is not ideal but for the price is fine. Mount them properly, aim them properly, and use them in conditions that warrant their use and only then, and they are an effective product.But too many use automotive lighting incorrectly, thinking that a huge blast of light is allowing them to see better, when in all actuality all it is doing is constricting their pupil sizes, and vision, and blinding oncoming traffic.I hope cops start ticketing these fools who are using auxiliary lighting improperly, or retrofitting HID bulbs into halogen housings.
I bought these to mount on my tractors snowblower to help with visibility when it is dark out. The tractors lights are okay but don't put out a lot of light. These light up my driveway great when I have to snowblow in the dark. Pretty good for the price.
I'm using these as DRL, and they are perfect for that use.  Very good quality, great installation gear, and they look nice.  I am going to replace the bulbs with LEDs to cut down on current draw.
These things give off a pretty wide pattern for being so small. they could be a tad bit brighter but they are a fog light which is exactly what i needed. Lights feel well made and sturdy. The wiring harness is very well made. Wire is of good quality and is fairly long however, the load wire that goes from the switch to the relay was not long enough and needed to be extended for my needs. The switch that comes with the kit is really nice and has an LED active light thats red when the lights are off and greeen when the lights are turned on, but i wont be using it.EDIT: CRAP! lights started to leak. seems like the weather stripping inside around the lens is way too big and doesnt seal right. took the lights off my front bumper and put them on my rear bumper to use as reverse lights since they didnt give me the light output desired. after almost of week of being on my rear bumper they filled up completely with water even worse than they did on my front bumper and one lens also cracked. going to contact the company or seller to see if i can get a replacement lens. READ ALL REVIEWS BEFORE PURCHASING. THESE LIGHTS ARE NOT THE GREATEST.
ITS THE BEST LIGHT I ORDERED FOR MY SILHOUETTE BECAUSE A PEBBLE BROKE MY LAMP ,AND IT WAS EASY TO INSTALL  ,THANK YOU  AMAZON,COM
I mounted these on the bumper of my Ford F250. They are about 24" off the ground; not too close to the pavement by any means. The housings started to leak within a week or two of being installed. I removed the lights and tried sealing with black silicone, but they still leaked. Perhaps because of the leak, the chrome started flaking off within a few weeks.  I now have very good looking lights, which leak, produce nearly no helpful light, and won't stay aimed in the direction I angled them.
I was looking to buy some good fog-lights for my car, I did a lot of research, I was going to go for the Hella FF50, but I didn't want to spend a lot of money, so the second option was the Optilux 1450, like everyone said these are some pretty good quality fog lamps, they feel sturdy, however I agree with Tito's review, don't remove the black shields, as without them the lamps get very hot and you don't want to blind oncoming traffic, I tried a comparison side by side, one lamp with shield and the other one without it, I couldn't see a mayor difference. The cables are good, the only complaint that I have is the plastic switch, it feels a little cheap, but I'm hopping it will hold up.
I had Hella Optilux 1002 fog light 2 years ago, that wasn't bright enough even i put the 35w HID in there, this time I'm going to use non-projector light for the fog light and use 50W HID in it!, this light come with the everything you need, durable cable, reply, switch, etc. for this price and its quality, i would say i found a good one, although the HID is bit hot especially I'm using the 50W, the chrome on Hella Optilux 1002 fog light stripped a bit on it because the hotness of HID. with the 50W HID 3000K on it, i can even use it as the driving light!!! sweet! with HID in there i needed to modify the hole in the back for the HID bulb to be fit, and use silicone to seal, that only need a small file and small silicone cost me only about $6.after a year of use this light with 50W HID in it. I like to use it a lot even in good weather, the light brights up the road.... but just recently one of the the lens broken but still works and the hosing still in good shape. I don't know what broke my len but I will leave it that way for a while!
These things are burning our right and left.  We have these installed in 8 of our patrol cars and they don't seem to last more than a few months. Be careful if you order the KC lights with the 130 watt bulbs.  The light reaches out as good as any I've ever seen but the quality of the bulb leave much to be desired
This is a quick and easy upgrade from 55 watt lamps to these much brighter 130 watt bulbs. they are wall made and appear to be of higher quality than the Hella lamps that came with my fog lights.
Right bulb to replace the original that lasted almost 4 years.  Kind of a pain to replace with the lights mounted but it can be done.
Use this for my kc offroad lights on a mule utv.  Replaced one bad bulb that would come on/off.  Worked as expected.  Nice and bright.
What canI say these are bright and cuts through thr dark.
The brightest bulbs you could find for your KC hilites! I love these. They light up the night and make the drive safe. Ensure you dont keep them on while driving - way too bright and dangerous.
This is a high quality steering wheel cover that I really liked but it did not go far enough around my steering wheel for my Mazda CX-5 so I returned it.
This steering wheel cover is exactly what I was looking for.  Soft leather, and is very durable, and the stitching is very high quality.  I love the way this makes my interior look and the feeling is great.
This cover is a little bulky on the steering wheel. Fits nice and works great but I would have chosen a thinner cover if I knew. Other than that, I am happy with this cover.
I bought this to replace a replacement cover. The old replacement cover was old, ripped and still smelled like the strong vinyl scent. This one is very nice. It is nice and smooth and feels good in your hands. It takes some muscle to install but once it is one there it looks good. It could be a tad cheaper but it looks well made. The stitching is solid and doesn't seem like it will come apart. It doesn't move at all once you place it on your steering wheel so you don't have to worry about that.
This is a nice steering wheel cover.  I'm not completely sure its leather but it feels nice.  I read reviews where buyers are one starring this product saying its plastic and one even said he cut a chunk out for his to see if it was leather.  I'm going to say this.  If you want something that smells like top grain Italian leather this is not the product nor the price range you need to be looking for and it definitely isn't the expectation you should have if you paid less than $20 for a product.  For that price you get what you get,  regardless of what the manufacturer may claim. Reviewers on Amazon kill me with unrealistic expectations like products that are purchased at low costs like this one should be perfect and expensive grain leather is unrealistic and ignorant.  A nice cover it is.  Top grain leather it is not, at least not for $20. Want top quality?  Spend multiples of the cost of this product! !!! I like mine and itinstalled in a snap.
Simple, quick review.Real, thick, stiff leather.Heat it up some to make install easier.Good color!Feels great, works well!
I've had a lot of imitation leatherish wheel covers that a) smell and b) don't last very long.  I can't swear that this is real leather or not, but it doesn't stink like others that I've had, and so far, in about the 4 months I've had it, it's holding up well.  So far so good.
The item was just as discribed. Genuine Leather, it does fit sung. My wheel is a PT Crusier GT. It is leather, but it's starting to show wear. So I bought this to try? It was a bit hard to put on. So I laid it in the Sun for awhile. It went on. But don't add anything to help it along. You don't want it to slip. My Steering Wheel is 15", but it fits like it was made for it! My secret for keeping them looking HOT, is KIWI Black shoe polish, hand rubbed. SW
I just got one for my 2001 Chevy Suburban and one for my 2006 Ford Five hundred. These covers fit well. They don't slide and they are made of real leather. You can smell the leather scent. One imprtant note is that as a result of these covers being made well and of a thick leather, they do make the driving experience slightly different. They do make the steering wheel thicker. No regrets, the steering wheels on my cars were in poor condition. The alternative would have been to purchace new steering wheels.
20 minutes in the dryer on low softened it up for easier stretching over the wheel on our 2002 Chevy Tahoe.  Smells like new leather seats which I like but some do not.  Nice soft feel.  Quality piece.  Seller was fast and efficient as well...
I used this sand paper to wet sand a set of headlights and it worked amazingly. Unlike cheaper sand paper this one didn't shred apart so I recommend you buy the good stuff. In my experience 3m makes some awesome products and shopping on amazon will save you a few dollars also.
Great for working with metals and woods if you want a real fine and smooth finish. So get some and get sanding.
I use the &#34;scary sharp&#34; method of sharpening knives, plane irons, and chisels. That involves wetting a sheet of abrasive, laying it on a flat surface, like a thick sheet of glass (I use a surface plate) and sharpening tools on that. For the occasional woodworker it's inexpensive and very effective, and a lot less messy than waterstones.Reshaping damaged edges, I start with something like 325 grit wet-or-dry . For normal honing I start with 3M's 800 grit sheet and finish with this. It provides a mirror finish and a single sheet lasts through many sharpening cycles. I'll probably eventually invest in a set of good waterstones ($150-200) but for now this is a good substitute.
3M knows how to make sandpaper. When you get to 2000 grit you're really polishing. I use this prior to polishing something.
Very workable wet sanding paper. Never gave me any trouble during the life of the pack. Will buy again. Expensive, but like all other 3M products. The stuff just works.
If you're one of those folk who likes to keep your car looking clean and shiny whatever the weather, and no matter how old your car (or you) might be, this is stuff you want to have on hand. It is  gentle, effective and provides the best shine possible, whether your car is nearly new or has 100,000 miles on it.My daily driver is an original owner, 18 year old, bright red M3, and it still turns heads because it still looks great - thanks in part to regular use of 3M hand glaze.  Here's what you do - wash your car well, using one of the better car wash solutions like Meguiar's hi-tech wash or P21S car shampoo.  Dry.  Then use Griot's Garage (or similar) paint cleaning clay to remove surface contaminants and start to work on the swirls and other imperfections in your paint.  (You can skip this step, but I've recently discovered this cleaning clay and it really does wonders, especially on cars that spend a lot of time in the woods where birds, bugs and tree sap are unavoidable).Now - get out the 3M Imperial hand glaze.  This stuff is very finely abrasive and supremely gentle on your paint - clear coat or not. Use a terry or foam applicator pad to rub the glaze into the paint and rub out fine swirls and scratches.  Work on a small section of the car at a time -- perhaps a square foot or so of surface. Always buff the glaze off, before it dries, with a best quality cotton or microfiber polishing cloth.When you're done with the 3M hand glazing process, your paint will be at its best - silky smooth and contaminant free.  It will shine as best as it knows how - but you're not finished.  This is a polish, not a protectant wax.  So now's the time to protect the paint with a high quality wax - I recommend P21S carnauba or one of the Zymol paste waxes.Follow this regimen, do it two or three times a year and keep your car washed in between. If you care about how your car looks, then year after year, you will be glad you did.
The package arrive in fine shape and the product was well protected.The glaze shies very well, although it seems to dry very quickly to a hardfilm.
Got the shine back on my 13 year-old original paint. Easy to use and a little goes a long way. Works better if you have orbital buffer. I used a electric screw driver and even made my headlights sparkle!
You have to try this stuff.  I've been using it for years on my dark cars and it really leaves one of the best squeaky clean feeling deep shines you will find. It seems to make the swirl marks and small  scratches just disappear.  I cover with a good synthetic wax.  Great product, easy to use. One bottle goes a long way - I use 1/4 or less on a large full size car. I was so glad to find it on Amazon.
The very best wax for black you can find. Hard to remoe by hand buffing alone. The key if to get most of it off with a good cloth and then hit it with the 3M detailer spray. Mirror goodness and that deep penetrating wet shine. Love it!
This is a great product!  It brought back the original look and actually a nice satin-gloss look to my tires.I agree with other reviews, don't care for the Ultra Glossy finish some tire dressing produce and this is a restorer... it helps the rubber.  Just be aware that this is a strong and some what dangerous product, they warn that this can cause  cancer, and as a survivor of Melanoma from last year, I take this cautions seriously!  Just follow the directions, be safe, and enjoy the look this produces!
Goes on easy, just spray and wipe.  Looks like the war wash tire detail.I'm happy with it. Supposed to block both types of the sun's UV rays which I guess implies reduced tire aging?
This product was designed to make tires look new again without using the usual silicone based (make-um-shine) stuff which actually dries out your rubber trim. Though this product does contain some silicone it does not have as much as the stuff that it resembles. If you like your tires to look wet and shiny this product is not for you. If you want your tires to last longer and look new even when they no longer are, 3M Tire Dressing does just that.
This tire restorer is the best one I've ever used. I tried most brands and this one is by far the best. If you want your tires to look like new, just spray some and wipe with a cloth. If you want some crazy shine, spray and leave it like that. Be aware that, just like many other tire dressers, it can and will stain the pavement/driveway.
If you want to restore the new tire look, this is the stuff. Easy to use. If you have curb scrapes just stiff brush the tire with car soap and water, dry tire and apply. This does not give you that glaring shine nor is it formulated to. The tires look as new when done. Great product.
I'm always hesitant to use tire-shine for personal reasons.  They always wear-off and sometimes they are just too shiny.This spray really does the job.  Its non-greasy and shiny.  It makes tires to look BLACK (the fluid is white/cloudy) and as i was applying it to the tires, i could see a difference.  It rained right after i left the carwash and after driving in the rain for 15mins the shine/cleanliness was still there.  So over all i'm super happy with this.
I like this 3M Tire Restorer because it goes on easily and covers well. It leaves the tire looking great and not real shiny but like new. I don't like the really shiny tire products because it looks peculiar to see a tire that way. I prefer the matte finish where the tire looks like new and clean. I have tried lots of tire products and use this one consistently on my new truck and looks great. Also seems to last awhile. I also like the way it comes out of the spray bottle as it is a nice fan spray that covers a good area. Worth trying if you like to keep your vehicle looking like new.
I was at our Good-Guys car show (with my show car) a few years ago and a (NAPA) dealer had this product for sale. They said try it and if you don't like it bring it right back and I'll give your money back. Well...I didn't and I have continued to use this for years since. This stuff is great and like others have stated really brings the new tire look without being too shiny. I used it on all the plastic and rubber parts to bring new life look back and also the colored plastic panels can bring the color back. None of it is permanent and tires need to be re done every other wash or so. I use the 'Eagle One Tire Swipe' applicator to apply the product or wipe it around for an even appearance. I have even used it sparingly on my Azek deck and keeps it looking sharp (but if too much can get slippery). Great product.
I've been struggling for years with my lever action grease gun as you really do need a third hand to use it. I finally got fed up enough and did some research on-line and noticed the LINCOLN model had the best ratings. I love the way it locks onto a fitting and doesn't leak all round the sides of the fitting instead of going into the fitting as my old gun did....(made a mess and wasted grease) The Lincoln forces all the grease into the fitting easily...once you snap onto the fitting you only need ONE hand to operate! This is a quality piece of equipment and worth every penny especially with the best price and free shipping from Amazon. Now I wont get aggravated and talk myself out of greasing the cars and  lawn tractor as I should be.....THANK YOU LINCOLN INDUSTRIAL 1134.....
Delivered in timely manner and packaged properly. Easy to use, easy to load as well. I have been using it a while now and it is holding up. Great transaction.
My preference was to purchase a grease gun made in the USA. Nowhere could I find one so I was resigned to buy one which I was sure would be made in China. To my surprise the gun was made in India and is a high quality item. The hose was made in Germany which was another surprise. I needed to lubricate the spindles on my mower so I obtained a grease cartridge and tried to load it into the gun by following the manual provided by Lincoln. I appreciate the fact that Lincoln furnished a manual but I would have been pleased if it had been written clearly enough to be understood. I simply could not load the cartridge using the Lincoln manual and decided to look for other instructions. Luckily I found a YouTube clip titled Lincoln Grease Gun Tutorial which solved my loading problem and offered other helpful hints. All went well after viewing that clip.This is a fine grease gun and works as expected. Other than a confusing user guide I have no complaints.
Best grease gun I have owned, and I have gone through a few of them so far. This will be the last one I buy. The quality is top notch. Very smooth operating handle.
I have a possible solution for the tight-coupler problem. I used to have a Caterpillar grease gun that had to be pried off the fitting just like this gun does. It was also a heavy duty, industrial gun like this Lincoln. I like heavy duty, but there is a limit to how much force needs to be applied to free the coupler from the grease fitting. Most do-it-yourselfers have a Dremel. Dremel makes a small, cone-shaped, red-stone bit. It's head is 5mm wide at the base and 8.5 long. I don't know the item number. It is tiny. Under a magnified florescent work lamp, I lightly ground the three crescent-shaped, spring-loaded clamps that grab the grease fitting, careful to maintain the original contour. This took about two minutes. I'd lightly graze all three clamps and then test the connection. I left the coupler a little tight allowing for future wear. This grease gun is top quality. After a two-minute modification, it is now a customized tool. Guys like to customized cars, motorcycles and guns, why not their tools? I needed a tough pistol-grip grease gun to access tight places where it is nearly impossible to operate a lever-action gun.  This works for me.  Good luck.
The grease tube was easy to install. First time user and it was easy to use. Great price for the grease gun compared to buying it from auto shops.
This is one good grease gun.  Yeah, it's easily twice to three times what you'd spend in a big box store for a grease gun but it's solid and heavy-weight.  It probably weighs twice the weight of the gun it replaces.  It's got an air pressure release valve to purge any trapped air.  The rubber hose is longer than most and that helps getting in those hard-to-reach places.  The tip snaps securely on the zerk fitting and the hose end fitting is adjustable to get a secure connection on the zerk valve.  And the one-handed operation of the squeeze handle is a delight to use.  I just finished using it to grease the spindles and wheels of my riding mower and it worked great.This has got to be the last grease gun you'll ever buy.  You'll thank yourself every time you use it.
After a couple of cheap grease guns, I opted for this better one. It's definitely heavy duty, worth a few extra bucks, quality throughout. Comes with everything I need. This is the one I pick up every time I need a grease gun.
The quality of this tool is very good and it hasn't fallen apart or given me any issues yet.If it does I will update my review accordingly.My only regret is that it's not made in the USA.
For the pump:-Solid construction.-No problem loading the grease tube.-Gives out good pressure for injection of grease.For the coupling:-Had a real hard time pulling the coupling away from the zerg fitting.-I would replace the coupling.
This thing seems extremely well made, even if it isn't made in the USA. I had a cheap gun before this and blew the seals on the second use. This pumped grease into some well rusted fittings with ease.My only complaint is the hose fitting that attaches to the zerks. Yes, it is a 2 piece design as many have mentioned which is both good and bad. If you have easily accessible zerks that need a lot of pressure, you can screw this on and use both hands to pump. However, large u-joints can be a huge pain as I can't get anything in to tighten the fitting. I found I had to keep making adjustments then sticking it in the joint until I found the perfect setting where it fit on the zerk but didn't lose grease. However, there were a few joints where I was unable to find this balance and couldn't get them to take grease. I will have to buy a different hose to get them all.
It works however its a leaky mess. To be fair I may be to blame as I had difficulty loading the grease tube as the directions are somewhat lacking. but still I have to keep it in a plastic bag when I'm not using it as it makes a mess.
I received from Amazon and put it right to work.  I installed a Lithium Cartridge from the top, screwed on the whip hose, primed it, and went to work.  I found it locked on the the grease fitting well and pulled off the fitting with a firm tug.  It did not lock on like another reviewer found.  So far so good.  I have owned other Lincoln models and have not had any trouble with them.
I'm a shadetree mechanic, so figuring out how to load this thing was an adventure.  The instructions are ok, but as I have ZERO experience in using/loading one, it was quite the mess - not the fault of the product, it's all me.  Once I got it all loaded up, it worked flawlessly.  Great pressures delivered into the driveshaft zerks for my '98 Land Rover, and required little to no pressure on the handle to deliver it.
This is a high quality grease gun and FAR better than all of the less expensive ones I have purchased at auto stores and Wal-Mart.  I threw away my other grease guns after trying this one.
Very well constructed but it has a design flaw that makes it useless. The internal plunger has a disc with a slot and the T handle needs to engage the disc perfectly or the rod pushes into the grease and not the disc so the grease does not load properly. I have 4 other standard grease guns and these work perfectly but I wanted the pistol grip so I could pump with one hand.I have not idea what the intended purpose is in having the rod disengage from the plunger disc as this is unique in my experience to the Lincoln grease gun.
Can't say anything bad about the gun -- well constructed and built to last a lifetime. However, I see what people are talking about with the instructions. They're not really instructions. No parts labeled, nothing but a drawing of the unit itself, and another small diagram showing the spring release pulled back and locked. Other than that, the instructions literally consist of one 107-word run-on sentence that leaves you scratching your head. So just don't even read it, just throw it in the trash unless you want to laugh.
I've used this buffing pads for about 5 years now in my car wash and I have to say they work great and leave your car looking like new very shinny and leaves no swirls.
These are fantastic. It will leave swirls on dark colors, so use a foam one if the paint is decent. On old badly worn finishes- use this first, then do it again with a foam one. It'll come up amazingly well.
A friend had recommended this wool cutting pad for de-oxidizing and restoring the shine of a 15 year old boat! The results are amazing! I`ve even ordered more to keep on hand for other wax products!
I received this buffing pad in good time and well packaged...I've used it once and found it to be satisfactory...nice and thick...easy to clean...adheres and works well with my buffer....also found the price to be very competitive ....SATISFIED
Made well! Has a centering hole, for fast changing. Read my reviews for the best disk to use with it.  SW
Per recommendation, it use it to do the cutting stage of car polishing using Porter Cable 7424XP. It does its job well. My only complaint is that that small wool threads will be shredded and fell off. You need to clean up the garage after you are done polishing cars. I guess it is nature of wool. I use it for heavy duty job such as cars that do not get waxing/polishing for a long time like mine. After that I switching to foams.
CLEANS DIRT IN PAINT VERY WELL AND BEST OF ALL , IT SO EASY TO POLISH OFF..TAKES NO MUSCLE AT ALL..LEAVES A SHINE I CANT GET WITH OTHER WAXES
Hard to apply and very hard to take off.  This will go in the back of the supply cabinet and only be useed when I am out of P21S.  You definitely get what you pay for in this case.
I have been using this product for years.  It's a liquid cream stays emulsified and spreads very easy.  After it dries to a haze it wipes off even easier.  As a cleaner wax it's fantastic.  Removes everything that has accumulated on your paint and leaves it shiny, sealed and smooth.  I use it on our Murano, F150 and camper trailer.  I'll never use anything else.
It is a good quality wax, but don't expect super shiny glossy finish from this wax. Basically it is just a cleaner wax and not anything exotic.
on the advice of miles (you know who he is!) use this to maintain the grille and surfaces of our kerosene heater. initial and seasonal. seems to do the trick.also there's a kinda nice coconut smell.
This liquid wax really brings out the shine and is very easy to apply and wipe off. I use it on my chrome wheels and it makes them look brand new.
This is a great one step wax when you don't feel like spending hours on cleaning, polishing, then sealing your car's finish.  It does have a bit of abrasiveness to it, so I wouldn't recommend using it on newer finishes.  It works ideally on older, imperfect finishes.I have a 12 year old car which I used to be very avid about keeping cleaned, vacuumed, and waxed.  Over the years I have gotten more lax about keeping the car up, even though it still looks decent.  Being outside all the time has slowly worn away the clear coat on the car, so the finish oxidizes fairly easily now.  The proper way to handle this would be a multi-stage polishing, followed by a good wax or sealant. Done correctly this takes hours and is quite tedious - even with an orbital polisher.  With this product you effectively reduce those 2-3 steps down to one.  It does an admirable job of reducing watermarks, stains, and oxidation while leaving a nice shine and protective wax coating.It can be applied easily by hand, though you'll get the maximum cleaning and polishing effect from using an orbital buffer.  It dries quickly and wipes off easily by hand.  Overall a very friendly and effective formula.
I've used Meguire's cleaner wax for over two decades. The protection and finish are great. What I really like about this wax is that it does not create a build up, as using other waxes like carnuba can do over time.Reading some of the other reviews is frightening! Please don't mistake the work "cleaner" to mean a substitute for actually washing your car!! The cleaner function removes previous wax and oxidants... but you need to carefully WASH your car before applying this, or any other polish or wax.
What's good about this product? It's cheap and easy and produces good results.What's bad? It doesn't produce great results. Other Meguiar's products will, though.This product attempts to polish small scratches and spider webbing out of your paint, then fill remaining scratches, and then provide a wax coating. If you paint doesn't have small scratches or other defects, you don't need a cleaner wax, you just need a regular wax. This product does a good but not great job at polishing scratches. It also does a good job of filling remaining scratches, but this will fade after a few weeks or months. If you want to only use one product, for time and/or money, this will do a good job.If you want to do the job right, you should use Meguiar's Ultimate Compound with a simple random orbital buffer. It will do a much, much better job of removing small scratches and spider webbing than this product. Then you can use Meguiar's Polish to fill remaining scratches (this step is optional, the difference is not huge) and finish with a Meguiar's wax like the NXT Tech Wax. The NXT wax will last much longer than this cleaner wax, so ultimately it will save you time.
Great product. It works and is easy to apply and take off. Great shine! The price can not be beat.
Wax went on well and came off pretty good also. don't get to far ahead of yourself before removing the wax or it take much more elbow grease.
This wax leaves a nice shine. Compared to the Meguiars Nxt. Gen Tech wax 2.0, they are identical as I have both.This leaves a white residue when dried so you can tell when it's ready to buff off.
Meguires has done it again.  This product is completely awesome.  It's very easy to apply and remove and it adds an incredibly deep tone and luster to the vehicle's finish.  You won't be disappointed in the results.
Its good stuff but if you look around you can find clay for cheaper!!  I will shop elsewhere from now on for clay!!
There are many types of clay out there but this works great on a newer vehicle or one that only needs to be dressed up a bit. Easy to work with and requires little effort. I use a spray lube and have found Mequiars Final Inspection does the job.Make sure the surface is washed before starting.Unless you drop some or have other issues, one bar will be enough for most vehicles. I've been able to do 3 small cars with one of these bars.You could shop all over and play hit or miss for a couple bucks or just do it right the first time.
I try to keep my cars in good shape, and part of my routine is regular use of a detailing clay. A light hand and a good detailing spray (I use Meguiar's) make a huge difference compared to just washing and waxing...it seems to bring the finish to life in a way that few other things do.As others here point out, detailing an entire vehicle with clay is a lot of work. Even my small cars can take me 4 hours if I do the job in one shot, so I usually do it in stages. My routine is to do one or two sections every time I wash the vehicle. One week I'll do the top, hood or rear, then the next time it'll be fenders or doors. Every so often, I'll do the whole vehicle, but my staged approach lets me get the benefits without spending all day on the task.Compared to other clay products I've used, Meguiar's seems less "aggressive" while still giving my car that smooth as glass finish. It also doesn't leave any sort of residue, and seems to glide on and off with nothing but a hyper-smooth finish left behind.Definitely recommended, and Amazon's price can't be beat.
Wish it were cheaper, but I won't use a product that might damage the paint on my classic - so I pay the price.  Only reason for not giving it another star is how much it costs.  Using a stretched out 2x3 inch piece of clay along with the Meguiar's Detailing Spray for lubrication makes pretty easy work for a step that I'm not that fond of doing.  I'm always shocked at how much garbage the clay picks up from what looked like a clean paint surface.  The smoothness after going over the paint shows that this stuff is working great.  Cleaning the car with soap and water is the first step, and using the clay is definitely the necessary second step before moving on to polishing and waxing.
Until I went through a detailing class I had never used automobile detailing clay.  Once you have used it, you can never go back.  Not long ago I detailed a new red Audi A5 that sat on the dealer's lot for about 6 months.  The amount of embedded dirt was amazing.
this clay works well with the spary detailer it get the dirty out of the paint for a smooth as glass feel a little work but worth it in the end
Wow this stuff really works when used correctly! I used the Meguire's Final Inspection spray as a lubricant (mandatory) and cleaned  off 5 years or road grime from the lower third of my SUV in no time at all. It was heavy and thick and not the paint is smooth as glass. Get a few containers of the clay for a SUV or large car because it does get dirty and you will drop a piece or two during the cleaning process. Meguire's has some very good How-To video's demonstrating the proper way to use this product.
This is the key to a beautiful, mirror finish on a car - both new and old. I have introduced this to many of my friends who never heard of such a product. Buy lots of it.
I used this product with Meguiar's Quik Detailer spray and I was amazed at the amount of embedded dirt, tree sap and grime the clay removed from the surface of my car's paint. I used the clay in a small area at a time, about 2' X 2' until the whole car was done and, my goodness, the surface was so smooth. I then used Meguiar's Mirror Glaze polish to smooth out some very minute scratches on the clear coat until it was spotless under a light. I finished up with Collinite Marque d'Elegance carnuba wax and the shine is blinding if the car is in the sun. I get so many compliments on my car now. It's 4 years old and I swear it looks better than the day I bought it. Also, this clay worked really well on cleaning the windshield.  After cleaning brake dust from my wheels, I used the clay and the wheels look like they just came off the assembly line.  I am very pleased. I am obsessed with keeping my auto detailed because it has been so rewarding to me to have a shiny car.
Meguiars is my brand of coice, theres PLENTY of clay in here and it isnt very aggresive at all, just enough to get the job done without marring the paint, and quite malleable
Maybe its just me, but I didn't see much difference.  I have a 2010 370Z that I baby, and decided after three years it might be time to detail the finish.  As I said, I baby the darn thing so its garage kept and pretty clean to start with.  I followed the long, involved instructions written by one of the experienced reviewers to the letter. I decided to just do the hood, and then clean/wax the rest of the car for comparison. .  I could see some different in the hood.  It was definitely a higher gloss.  But not a difference that any one else would notice.  Maybe it would be more noticeable in an older car with faded paint.  But I wouldn't waste time doing this again.
This product will do what is says it will do.  That being said, it does not inspire confidence in heavy use situations.  It does not appear very rugged.  Nice that it comes with the mount, but again the mount is very thin and light and probably won't last very long.  Also, the wire coloring does not match with the standard US codes.  White is ground on the item, while in most cases in the US, black is the ground wire.  Where was this thing made?  Again, it is a good price, and a useful product, but just beware it might be very rugged or reliable.  Make sure to read the enclosed documentation so that you match your wiring correctly.
perfect for my camper hook up.  It was fairly easy to install and not only has the circular connector, but has the 4 pinconnector also
7 Prong connector is the best for use in any towing situation even if you only need a flat 4 lead connection.  This unit is well used on rigs where you may run into many towed vehicle applications that do not match the 7 pole set up.  4 pole is at the ready if you need it.
Great little kit that you can get everywhere but, it's Amazon pricing (even less than WallyWorld)This comes with a mounting bracket, don't buy on with it.  The unit is easy to install and is of sufficient quality that I expect it will last a few good years.  Plastic sprung closure of the round, rubber pop cap for the 5er.. I like this on my Tahoe and wiring was just a google away.
First of all, THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS A MOUNTING BRACKET! For the first time ever, I didn't read reviews here before purchasing and bought a separate mounting bracket which Amazon lists as "frequently purchased together". On the flip side though, I doubled up the brackets to make them a bit more sturdy. The bracket will bend backwards from the force of pushing the 7 pin plug in otherwise.The adapter itself is made of a thick plastic so corrosion shouldn't be an issue. Both covers work well and should keep out the elements though dielectric grease should be used as well. The wires are heavy (enough) gauge and have good jackets to them and the included crimp connectors are a nice bonus, though I always recommend soldering them.My only complaint is the cheap screws that come with it. Everything needed to mount it is included but it's very soft steel and strips with little effort. Do yourself a favor and pick up some nice stainless screws at least for where it mounts to the vehicle.
Easy to install, setup, wire up and use.  Its nice to have one connection point and be able to plug pin what ever kind of trailer you might want to tow. It works great with my camper, snow mobile trailer, ATV trailer and my old beater gravel, dirt and construction material trailer.Installation:  If you have a 4 wire harness already installed (like I did) you can just plug into that for all the lights, blinkers and brake lights, then simply add a break controller for trailer breaking  and connect to the wiring on the multi tow adapter. It also has pass through power connections for your attached trailer- which is great for charging your camper batteries while driving down the road.  We used this feature all summer while dry camping (camping with out plug in power) all over the midwest United States.
The Multi-Tow Adapter is needed to supply multiple trailer use.
i use these for aftermarket batteries for 12v power wheels. can charge with a battery tender and fit together nicely
I use these inline on Aux Lighting, they work perfectly. Rather than having to cut wires, I can simply unplug these and dismount the light. Save so much time and they are weather resistant. I use some Diode Grease to protect the internals from moisture and have had no issues at all.
Good extension wire to use when you need a little bit more room. I use this on my ATV for the batt charger since I put a basket on it. Don't have to crawl under to hook it up.
I cut this extention in half and either solder and use shrink tube or use but connectors with shrink tube and have used it on my bikes or vehicles ove the years as add on accessory disconnects. I use the red as positive and the white as negative and the exposed white connetor with the covered red connector to connect to the battery to protect the wire from shorting out.
what I needed was rewireable or pigtail 2-pin connectors but those don't seem easy to find. maybe if there was an RV store near me, but...but honestly finding this was even better. and the price is unbelievable.(what I really needed these for, is to cut in half and reverse the polarity. yeah, I know, danger will robinson. but it turns out that chaining up certain other connectors on my solar system results in wrong polarity in the first place, so to fix that... yeah, it scares me too.)
Pretty basic design executed well. Good and tight fit with a quality feeling rubber shielding the metal. The wire seems pretty thick. I haven't spliced it so i'm not sure if its a copper or aluminum wire. I guess they could have made it of poorer quality and it would still work but for this one they decided to take an extra step and should last a long time without issues.
Fast service, great pricing and to top it off I liked this so well I will be back and will recommend to others. I have no reservation about this product or seller.
I have some fog lights that I use on the back of my truck to light up the sides of my 5th wheel when I am pulling in to a camping spot at night. I got these so I can easly connect and disconnect these lights. They make it very easy to connect/disconnect anything you have that just needs power and ground.
I needed to extend the length of the reach of the charge controller in my solar panel system setting, and after checking the prices of the extensions for sale, I decided to make my own.I bought these to cut in half and use at the end of the wires. These work so good that soon I'll be ordering more, because I'm planning to build a battery bank, and using these will lower the cost for sure.Also, they are easy and secure to disconnect and reconnect to the different component within the solar panel system setting.
The Tender Jr. does not come with a cigarette adapter so I cut this in half to make two. I purchased 2 lighter plugs for a buck each from China&#8230; with free shipping&#8230; and they are working fine. These aren&#8217;t an exact match with the Tender cables but they fit together OK and are easy to determine polarity with the wire colors. You can also just use this as an extension cord for your Tender. The description states a length of 12-inches&#8230; but it&#8217;s actually 14-inches tip-to-tip on the connectors. Nice item for the price and it&#8217;s made in Mexico.
This product appears to include the cable. IT DOESN'T. It's just the mount which it does okay, but you'll have to buy the cable separately.
This is a plastic sandwich type holder for the flat 4 wire connector.  Not only did my connector fit loose and tilt at an angle as a result, but the holder did not have a proper channel to fit the cover for the 4 wire connector I just bought. The channel provided for the cover is very small and is evidently application specific. This was a waste of money.  I had to buy a different mounting bracket from a trailer place.
I'm not shocked that there were no wires, even though the picture shows wires.  But I am surprised that the dust cover - which appears to be integral in the picture - is not included.  All that's in the package is the clamp itself and some self-drilling sheetmetal screws.  Maybe I'll check back some day and see that the picture has been changed or the description has been updated to reflect reality, in which case I'll change the number of stars.  But for now, I'm knocking two stars off for the deceptive ad, and another star for the product really being a fairly cheap piece.  In my opinion, the piece isn't a great value; the price is at best only "fair".  And yeah, I know, we're not reviewing prices.  But it's a cheaply-made product which lacks finish; I think the bottom side could've been solid instead of having the exposed ribbing, and I think the included screws (which appear to at least be stainless) should've come with appropriately-sized washers to distribute the load on the plastic.
Easy to install. I used my own screws because of the material that I was mounting the bracket on. I had to tape one of the light adapter plugs as it was a loose fit in the bracket.
If you work on peoples stuff you know what a pain in the rear trailer wiring is, always non-functional.  this conncetor works and holds the flat 4 wire firmly.
This works fantastic at keeping your Hopkins brand trailer wiring harness secure and looking good. With some minor modification I used this in conjunction with a  Curt 58001 Easy Mount Electrical Bracket for 2&#34; Receiver Tube and am extremely pleased.
This item was purchased because my landscape trailer was constantly pulling my harnesses apart, they would drag the street all the time. This is a simple bracket you install on your hitch or bumper that keeps the light harness stationary. I will never again go without this bracket. matter of fact I plan to order a few more so I have them when I upgrade or buy more trucks for my company. I highly recommend this product if you pull any kind of trailer.
it's usefully to get a wire off the ground, but it's pretty thick, and it set up for round tube, like a class III/IV, and not a square class I so it wasn't going to be easy to install, and be functional. i ended up installing the plug in trunk, and will have to have it come out that way, disapointing, but it works better that where i'd have to put it.it's easily 2x the thickness of the plug, and 2x as long. the plug will stick out a bit. if i had round tube, a self tapping screw would have worked well.
My tow bar had the bracket welded on it, so it was easy to install. Really looks great, no more loose wires.
The picture is slightly misleading. This is only the mounting bracket - it does not come with any wiring. But is is well designed to let you securely mount the end connector of a 4 wire flat cable. The bracket is flat on one side, and curved on the other. The curved side fits well on the tube of my trailer hitch. The connector on the end of my T connector fits well, and the weather cap comes out through a slot in the bracket. It sure beets having the connector flopping around!
This bracket is adequate I suppose.  Nothing really outstanding.  It is not as strong as I hoped it would be.  But I suppose it will work for awhile.
Along with the light plug I bought, the two in combination worked great. Easy mounting and complete with screws. Made the project easy to do. A very short process and I had lights to my trailer.
The bracket was great, but as it turned out it was not needed because the multi-tow adapter came with one.  Amazon credited me and said don't bother sending back.  Very pleased with amazon.
I bought this because Amazon suggested that it should be bought along with the brake controller. There is no need for it at all as the brake controller mounted just fine with the included hardware.
I used it as a doubler to get better support with the Hopkins 47185 Multi-Tow Adapter kit.  It makes the plug much more rigid when plugging in and unplugging my camper connection.
i thought i need one for towing but my factory installed adapter is still working so i just have to keep this for future use.
but the lites do go onwill try it when it gets warmer.. got a set or trailer lites from Hrbourfreight... not used yet
This is a well worth the money adapter for automotive uses. If you need an adapter and don't want to pay double at the store order here and get great shipping and receiving of the product. Works great with all my vehicles and trailers. Thank you again Amazon for the selling another good product cheaper...
Bought this for my 2012 Tahoe, works really good, makes good contact and no issues so far.  Real good purchase.
I like these allot they do a great job . Screwed up and lost one so I replaced it . I love the test lights on this one and they have a 7 5 4 that is very convenient . I prefer to wire evey truck and car with the 7 blades and go from there with adapters . As long as your vehicle was wired right to USA uniform standards you will be pleased . They are a little bulky but work very well .
i like how short this terminal connector is, much shorter then other 7-way plugs i have seen.  the light are great to verify that you are getting power through the plug.
I sometimes pull a car trailer and this adapter works fine.  I have not had any trouble with it making connections.
it helps you address wiring issues as soon as yopu pl;ug in without running around the trailer for a light check.
Not sure why, but my this adapter doesnt light up to do the checks as it is suppose to.  I think it is my suv (Audi) that doesnt support just the leds to verify operation.  I kept it anyway as it works fine with the trailer and all the lights work.
Works well as a way to adapt our car's 7 blade trailer hookup to also work on our 4 wire bicycle trailer. The LEDs are particularly appreciated, as a way of ensuring proper functioning of trailer lighting to at least that point. The rubber cover for the 4 contacts is also much appreciated.Our lawn mower once ran over this, damaging it enough that we bought another, though the original does still work - despite no longer being quite all there.My only other suggetion is that it's not always obvious in the dark which side goes up, though it does eventually only fit one way.Recommended!
Love this thing - the LED's are a simple verification and the device seems to fit snug and secure in the socket
Seems well made and works as it should. Like the fact it has the LED's which is a quick and easy way to see if your vehicles wiring is working as it should and can point you in the right direction if you may be having an issue with your trailers lights
The GM bumper connector has its own cap to keep the weather out, and so does this Adapter. But I really wouldn't leave this adapter plugged in all the time because the GM connector then is not sealed.This adapter fits well, with a locating keyway that fits the groove of the GM connector, aligning all the pins correctly. It's a tight fit so that it won't fall out in case the cable to your trailer has enough weight to tug on this adapter to any significant degree.I don't have any illumination problems so the LED functions are not fully tested.  Frankly, I do a walk-around after hooking up anyway, with marker lights and flashers on to check that everything works.  I presume the LEDs will tell me if there's an issue some day.
I like it, it is inexpensive, do a good job, and check your connections on the same time. Great item.
I hand to do some rewriting due to an accident and this adapter helped me. The diagnostic lights were very useful to troubleshoot the connections. The only complaint is that in my vehicle, a 2009 Ram, this adapter was big enough to block the other connector in my hitch.
Not only is this a good adapter to plug your trailer wiring into, but the lighting really helps in diagnosing problems. It told me the side of the wiring the problem lied in, and was able to pinpoint. Sweet!
Does what it says, seems to be good quality. I wish the wires were wrapped though. I ended up wrapping the wires with black electrical tape for a cleaner look and additional wire protection.
I recently rewired my boat trailer and found out I was a bit short when connecting to my pickup truck. The extra length was just right to connect to my truck.
If you need to extend your wiring for sharp turns this is both an easy and geat value way to do so.
Nothing special - just a well built 12&#34; flat-wire extension. Because I have my flat connector mounted to my hitch, I sometimes run into trailer wiring that is just a bit short. This solves that problem. And it does not take up much space in my tool box.
These were a very hight quality product and I received them very quickly, thank you Amazon.  I ordered three to use for a disconnect system on my scooter, they worked great.  I cut them in half and connected them into my lighting system so I could remove the seat frame and the trunk easily.
Not worth the money. Just use an old cotton t-shirt cut up. I also rinsed the pads out after I used in warm water.
I got these to use with Lexol 1115 Leather Cleaner Spray. Worked great.Using this helped out cleaning my wives' leather underwear.Now if you had read that, I really used it for my Ford F150 seat, very light tanthat shows dirt like crazy.
I bought these to use with the Lexol Leather Cleaner, Conditioner, and Vinylex products.  Does what it is intened for and they're washable for reuse.
I love these things. They could be cheaper but are still reasonable and they seem better constructed than other brands I've purchased. Excellent option for an applicator sponge.
They are nothing fancy, some basic terry cloth sponges.I used them to apply waxes and leather care products.I own many fine leather items. When I need to clean them to remove grime and stains, then I prefer to use a terry cloth sponge, rather than a microfiber cloth. When I condition the leather, then I use the microfiber cloth which is much softer.I didn't have much problem with the lint issue, maybe Lexol improved these pads....?I washed them and they held up fine.But I do have to say, I prefer the Viking cotton terry sponge applicators better as those ones have a denser foam and are softer to the touch. In addition, I think the price for these Lexol pads are not such a good value, considering that one pad cost about $2.10. The Viking ones are much better value....
Nothing special here.  Just a firm pad wrapped in cotton to apply cleaner/conditioner.  It washes easily and applies well.
I got these to use on my leather clothes and car seat. Very cheaply made. The white lint from the pad comes off and is a mess to pick up from leather clothes and car seat. Go to dollar store and get microfiber cloth !
I use these sponges to apply leather cleaner an leather conditioner to my car.  The are absorbent and can be rinsed out for future use.  They are soft and supple and gentle on the material you are cleaning and conditioning.
For those of you like me who can't decide and are considering buying both this item along with needle nose pliers - this item works much, much better at the bottom thicker spring.  That said, the metal is starting to bend after first shoe replacement.  Be prepared for a strenuous workout when replacing your shoes - night and day compared to replacing pads.
I try to avoid doing rear brake jobs with drums as best a possible....LOLSo to that end, i have only used this tool a few times.It's effectiveness really depends on the design of the brake job you're doing.  But it's been really good so far for me.Doing rear brakes is like going to battle.  Every fight is going to be different so you have to find the right &#34;Weapon&#34; to do battle with.  Not Like doing caliper brakes.  What do you use???  Sockets and wrenches and DONE!!!!  With rear brakes it feels like you will use anything you can find that will help you win the battle.  LOL!!!!you just have to becareful not to bend the springs when using this tool cause it can happen really easily.It's very handy to have in your arsenal of tools.
I bought this product to get at stubborn brake springs. It works very well as long as you use it correctly. The one I received is not the black one in the picture. The one that I got is a red handle, but they both do the same job.I recommend this tool!
So I had the misfortune of having to replace my brakes recently. I purchased one of these brakes spring tools and I am glad I did. You will see that the end piece of this tool, which has a one inch adjuster, the black piece. Slip the grooved area onto the straight part of the spring and turn the handle to tighten; it sure does make it a lot easier to stretch a new spring. I have tried to remove the springs with a vise grip and pliers but the brake spring tool is so much easier and Best $5 I have spent on a long time!
works great, high quality, very sturdy even with the toughest of springs, great price, a must have tool for some vehicles in the shop. saved me more then once!
this pad spreader worked on my silverado 3500 just as it was suppose to, and never got in a bind on time
I used this product on the rear of my disc brake calibers and it was a big wasted of time.Did not push in the piston.I had to use a 6in. C-CLAMP which worked out pretty well.Lisle Disc Brake Pad Spreader LIS-24400
This made retracing the brake piston a breeze. Made changing my brakes much easier. I highly recommend this product for brake jobs.
Once in a while you will come across one of these inexpensive items that performs a very specific function, and it looks like a gimmick that is too good to be true. That is not the case with this brake pad spreader. It works perfectly for the job it was designed for. You could probably do something similar with a c-clamp and a small piece of plywood, but I would spend the money on this again instead of fumbling with that kind of setup.
total time saver. Never leave home without it sorta deal. Once you have one, you'll wonder how you did without.
used this for the first time last week to push the calipers back when i changed brake pads.  simple and easy to use without any tools.  made quick work of a brake change.
Sure you can use a C clamp or a adjustable wrench but this isn't very expensive and looks to be of reasonable construction. My only issue is I have everything to install brakes but I've been waiting for almost 3 weeks for a floor jack to ship and I'll be damned if I'm breaking out the jack out of my trunk when quality floor jack is on order. Ok finally used this tool and all I can say is Perfect! Works just as it should, I tightened in small slow increments and let the piston settle all the way back. Made adding the pads a dream, now if there was a way to keep the freak'n pads in place till you slide the caliper back in place ! lol
I used this to change my front brakes recently. I had never used a tool like this before. I've always just used a C-Clamp on the caliper. This tool was very simple to use. You just put an old brake pad on the caliper piston, stick the tool in the caliper, and turn the knob. The tool feels sturdy enough to last through many brake jobs. It is easy to use. It was a little more difficult for my car because it has 2 piston front brake calipers, so I had to go back and forth in the caliper to make sure that both pistons got compressed. It still was not hard to use, it just took a few minutes longer.I am very pleased. I would buy this again, but based on how this felt when using it, I don't think I will have to.
I bought it to eventually service my break pad replacement. it looks and feels strong enough to get the job done. I wish the turn handle would have BEEN MADE A BIT WIDER RECTANGULAR shape. it would it a better torque movement with less effort. otherwise its okay.
The tool worked great on the first set of pads. Went to do the other side and the threaded rod broke loose from the knob. NOT recommended.
Great tool for the price i keep one in my box at work and it holds up to everyday use. very sturdy doesn't feel cheap like other competitors and a lot easier then using big pliers or c clamps. there are better and faster caliper piston compressors out there but are more expensive and for the price you cant beat this one for home or professional use lisle makes a great product.
It woked really well when I changed the pads on my BMW. Safer than using c-clamps.
This is such a useful tool when doing brake jobs. Simply place the tabs in between the pads and twist to push the pistons back. There is no need for positioning a C clamp or using vice grips and an extra set of hand to squeeze the pistons back.
This product is simple to use on single or dual piston calipers. Just put the brake pads in and screw them out. I now do not have to use bulky spreaders anymore. If it ever breaks good luck, otc is not stamped anywhere on it though.
good strong spreader, gets really small to fit between pads. perfect for when you are just refinishing rotors and leaving pads in place.
I bought this to do the brakes on my Porsche and it does not working very well it's too fat to fit in the space.
I purchased this spreader for my shop and have not regretted it.  We use it on any 4 or 6 piston caliper.  Simply pull the caliper off the vehicle with the pads still installed in the caliper, place the tool between the pads and spread them open.  Every tool box should have one of these.
I use as this a lubricant when claying a car. Have tried many things including soapy water but, this stuff makes the job so easy it's almost effortless.Works great for touch up work too.
Ive used just about every spray detailer out there and this has a noticeably better shine and durability then anything Ive ever used.
I have used this products for years for quick touch ups in between washes. It is great for removing bird droppings or other unfortunate spots between washes.
This works on par with mothers showtime spray lubricant and as final once over the car so it's perfect.  Good for using as a pad lubricant when cutting, polishing, and waxing.
I own my own detailing business and use this product exclusively for three purposes.  1. As a clay lubricant for paint contamination removal and 2. Putting the finishing touch on vehicles that are freshly painted and/or have had recent body work.  I love the fact that it's body shop safe, and 3. Prepping my polishing pads.  Otherwise, for anything else I use Meguiars synthetic spray detailer that wipes off even easier and has the added benefit of putting a protective "film" over the vehicle.  Another great product by Meguiars.
This is excellent quick cleaner of compound, polish and light dust. Also excellent for use with a clay bar! Highly recommended! Also removes finger prints exceptionally well and fast.
This gallon is more than enough product to maintain a waxed car after wash, always bring a spray bottle full with you & microfiber to dry & buff after a touchless wash, or hand was if you aren't waxing that day. Deep gloss & no streaks!
Had my 13 yr old car painted and the  body shop said no waxing for 90 days to let the paint out gas. I live in FL with bug season and water spots from washing and general dirt abound. Called Meguries and this stuff is body shop safe. Which means it will let the new paint out gas. I have been using it with excellent results between washes. Once the 90- days are up I will use a permeate wax.For really tough bug stains I use DP Detailers road kill bug remover and then the final inspection to bring the shine back. On very light bug splats the Final inspection works fine.
I use this item. I use alot of Meguiar's products for my detailing. You don't need alot to make it happen,  SW
Works great!I did a wash, clay, and wax last week, and this was my final step.. .. looked GREAT!
I saw this product recommended on another forum.  Having used Meguiars products over the years I figured I would give this one a shot.  It works well in between full polish / waxings or cleaning up the paint with a clay bar.  Recommend.
Not sure if ill buy it again, I bought t to use with my clay bars and for quick cleanups etc. I guess it does an OK Job, But Honestly I can do just as good with Water or a Quick Detail Spray Wax watered down. I wont buy it again.
I have a very unique finish on the tins of one of my bikes; it's a triple plate gold with a clear coat finish and for six months I couldn't wax it, polish it or generally touch it. Even now I have to be very careful with the products that I use on it, but I've never had a problem with Meguiar's final inspection. In fact even when I wasn't allowed to wax the finish, I still could use FI 34 to remove dust from the bike. When I don't have time to wash, polish and detail the bike a quick squirt of this ingenious product and a wipe down with a MF cloth and I'm on my way. Bike looks new!It lasts and lasts too - although that could because I'm using it on a bike! Ultimately, always have a bottle of this in your garage regardless of your vehicle type.
This is an excellent product, and it does exactly what it says it does.  It gently buffs out those irritating swirls that somehow develop over time in the finish of every car.  I use a Porter Cable 7424XP buffer, and it makes for a great combination.  I've recently started using more and more Meguiar's products,and I haven't been disappointed.
It's intended for easy cutting the paint. A nice thing Meguiar's been doig is having the scale shown on the label. This is one of the lowest indexes available for paint cutting.For the amount it comes (16oz) it should last for about years to come using on a single car.I'll try it with my PorterCable to figure out if it was a good purchase and this will be updated. If the case, I'll buy from other brands like Wolfgang or Black Diamond (better rated but 2x the price). Anyways, wait for the update.
Since my car is only 2 years old, I chose this Meguiar's #9 Swirl remover as I didn't want to have anything too aggressive. The paint was not in too bad a shape as I always used the 2 bucket hand wash method. Just light swirling on my grabber blue paint. To prepare the surface I washed the car then used Meguiar's clay bar to remove any embedded matter in the paint. Surprising what is in there after only 2 years even though the paint looked clean to the naked eye. After the claying I got out the Porter Cable polisher. Since this is an orbital polisher it is good for anyone who is new to using a power tool on your paint. This was my first time. It was quite simple actually. I mentally divided the hood into 5 section and did one at a time putting an X pattern on the Meguiar's polishing pad with the #9 Swirl remover. I did 4 section passes on each area and then used a microfiber towel to take off the excess polish. I could immediately see that the pad I used (Meguiar's 6.5-Inch Soft Buff Foam Polishing Pad) was just enough to do an excellent job. You see, since the paint was only 2 years old I didn't need a too aggressive polish, or a pad that cut too much. So if your car is in similar condition this may be a good combination for you. This I guess is why you do a test are first and not the whole car. After I was satisfied that this was the right combination, I moved on and finished the car. If it did not do the trick, I could use more pressure, a more aggressive pad, ramp up the speed on the polisher (I used setting 5 for this) or maybe bought a more aggressive polish. I really liked this stuff. Quite easy to do and I wasn't afraid that the polish would burn through my clear coat. I finished it up with Meguiar's liquid Ultimate Wax. The car looked when I waxed it the first time. I might try topping it off with some carnauba wax, but its not really needed.
This product is more of a glaze than a swirl remover.  While it does have some cutting ability it may not work well on new clear coat paint.  If you use this product I recommend to top it off with a good quality wax or sealant such as Meguiar's  Ultimate Wax.  (paste or liquid)
This stuff works pretty well at removing light swirls and scratches.  They take seconds to get in your clearcoat and hours to remove if done properly.There were some deep defects that were diminished but I didnt want to burn through the clear as I have not done paint repair before.  This is the Pro version of Swirlx and I tried them side by side and this works better than Swirlx.  Maybe its the placebo effect but most of the swirls are gone without any damage to the paint using a cheap Harbor freight DA polisher and their orange compounding pad.  I did follow this up with Ultimate polish then Mirror glaze for a really good black finish.
I've used the Meguiar's professional line for years and couple them with the Meguiars pads used on a Porter Cable 7424 random orbital polished.  Results are outstanding.  This time, I had to rescue the finish from an incompetent transport company that wiped down the car dry trying to be &#34;helpful&#34; leaving it a mass of swirl marks.  Even this wasn't abrasive enough to remove them, had to go the low cut cleaner first then this polish and all is right with the world.  Two potential problems with this product - if you use an orbital polisher that isn't random, you'll likely burn through your paint if you are not a pro.  Second, DO NOT let the product dry before wiping off and when wiping off, a very damp cloth helps a lot.  Change the cloth (micro fiber preferred) frequently (I use about a dozen to do a small Mazda Miata as they will load up quickly).  Use the product sparingly - a little does a lot.
Product works great!  Can't speak much for durability, but it seems like the hard (but pliable) plastic tube would be easy to pinch.  The end piece has good length, good to reach in hard to reach spots to hear what is going on.
The Stethoscope is very sensitive and works great for pin pointing out problems in a engine that you need isolate.The ear grommets are rubber witch makes it more comfortable to use.
If you do a lot of work with bearings or bearing assemblies, this can be a useful tool.  You simply hold the end of the probe against the housing or stationary bearing race, and listen.  A grinding or crunching sound means the bearing is rough/dry.  Used properly, it can save a lot of diagnostic time.  Quality seems to be good.
This is a great product at a great price. I used it to listen to the cam banks on my BMW to isolate which the noise is coming from and what the root cause might be. It's the first time I have used a device like this but it's amazing how effective a simple, old school device like this is. Considering how much vehicles cost, mechanics charge per hour, parts cost, etc., this tool is indispensible.
I ordered this stethoscope over the other brands on Amazon because of its higher reviews.  I had also read that other scopes were painful in people's ears.  The quality of this scope is as expected, but the earpieces are painful to wear for more than a few seconds.  That made it difficult for me when I was hunting for a noise in the front end of my car and had to test multiple places.  For quality, I like the scope.  For comfort, I do not.  Ultimately, I'd seek an alternate scope (for comfort reasons) if I were in the market for this product again.
I was first introduced to a mechanics stethoscope quite a few years ago when I used to use a regular physicians stethoscope I had picked up somewhere when needed for car repairs.  I located a mechanics model in a catalog and ordered it there.  I found it to be far more versatile with its long stem conductor instead of the flat plastic head on a physicians model, as well as much easier to use by design.  About a year ago my old stethoscope got run over during one of my more intense repairs, and I have since picked up this very same Lisle model from a local parts store.  The price here on Amazon for this 52500 model is cheaper than what I paid, and at the time of this writing ships free when bundled.  Although there are more expensive models available on Amazon, I cannot imagine anyone needing anything more than what this one offers.  Its solid, durable, and very comfortable to wear.I should point out that a mechanics stethoscope is one of the most versatile tools you can own. Even if you never do any work on cars.  You would not believe the number of uses one finds for this instrument when you have one around. Ever have one of those annoying squeaks or rattles inside your car, or some other place that you can't exactly pin down no matter how close you seem to get to it?  With this baby you will find ground zero on the squeak in a couple of minutes.  In addition to cars, you can easily locate squeaks or noises in any kind of machinery, or in your homes floor and walls. I even used mine to locate an irritating squeak on a neighbors sewing machine.  It is very easy to use, and even a lot of fun at times.As for this model versus a higher priced one, unless you're a highly paid specialist of some kind that prefers the very best, I would pass up the more expensive scopes available here or anywhere else and buy this one.  It is all the scope most of us should ever need, and one of the most handy and versatile tools to have in your home or garage..... Recommended.
Just got mine scope today. Tried it and noticed how sensitive it was. I can hear my own heartbeat with it. Hell I can even hear my own vein/artery pulse (very low) with it. The overall build quality is flimsy (bad), so that was a bit disappointing. The long probe tip shown in the picture is very fragile (easy to bend), so be careful. While I cannot compare it with any other, I can say it should come in handy in the future, just keep it in a padded sturdy case of some sort, and you may have to disassemble it prior to storing it, since it is fairly long - about 16" with the least bend radius allowable. The ear buds are a bit tight, it hurts my ears to use it after a short while. Again, it is extremely sensitive to sounds, even touching any part of it produces a lot of sounds, so keep that in mind when you use it. Some sounds will be "distracting", and the user may have a hard time discerning the real cause of the noise (on a car) from you touching/bumping/moving the probe around the car.For the price, its worth it, free shipping and all.
Even without a lot of mechanic knowledge or doing much mechanic work, this item is worth the price. Stick here or there and hear what you can't otherwise. It is great for the person shopping for a used car and you will know when you hear something that isn't right.As for the home mechanic, it is invaluable in pinpointing where things are wrong. Fuel injectors, pistons, valves, anything that moves.And for the computer tech, I have also found this device is great for finding soon to be faulty harddrives. You can hear everything that is going on without disconnecting anything. Long before real problems come up, this thing can find them.As for quality, it really is just a plastic tube with the correct diaphragm at the end to convert the metal pole vibrations to audible noise. Its is FAR better than naked ears, but there are many products out there that are better than this. As valuable as it has been, I would have paid for a better quality version if I were to buy one again.
Solid construction.  Great price.  Comfortable and easy to use.  It's quite sensitive.  I didn't want to use my medical stethoscope to isolate engine sounds.  The long probe on this is designed specifically for that purpose and works well.
Find out which pulley is whining. Comes with a nice extender for those hard to reach areas, very clear! I would recommend to anyone.
Something as simple as a stethoscope can be the catalyst towards a successful repair or failure.  Comes in handy for noises that you can't find with just a flashlight.
I usually have to wait for someone to be around to help whenever I perform a brake job on one of my kids cars. But this little tool works like a charm and makes my life a bit easier. Well worth the money spent. Seems very well made. I take very good care of my tools, so this will last many, many years with no trouble or problems.
After having several other brands die after one or two uses, it's nice to finally have a tool that works every time.
Well, to start, the only thing that I will complain about is the reservoir jar.It's not well made (may leak air), and doesn't hold that much liquid.I ended up building my own with a mason jar and two nozzles from a local hardware store.Other than the jar, I'm very happy with the kit, especially the the pump.The pump is well made, solid construction with all metal.  The gauge is movable.It has two settings, pump or suction.I used the kit on the following projects the past year:1.. Oil change on mower.Experience: Worked great.2.. Oil Change on Generator.Experience: Worked great.3.. Brake fluid change.Experience: not so great.  No fault to the pump or the kit setup.When using suction with brake fluid change, the fluid doesn't come out in a nice uniform motion where I can examine the bubbles, for example.  The fluid comes out in the tube with a roller coaster fashion (can't see anything.)I think next time I'll go back to the 2-man setup.If anyone has a recommendation on this please let me know.Overall, a great kit (great pump), and would recommend to others.
this is a high quality vacuum/pressure pump, with a nice assortment of lines and connectors. it's great for testing vacuum operated devices in automotive, like purge solenoids and egr valve, but not that great as a one man brake bleeder. yes, it will get some fluid flowing out a bleed port, but not with enough volume to be able to determine if you have removed all the air. tried it on a few different vehicles but ended up resorting to the old 2 man method on each and good thing, as there was still air left on each. still, a very useful tool.
Great kit, high quality.
I am working on my own truck and am not a mechanic.  I have not used the pump on the truck, yet, but just tested the pump for functions and leaks.This pump has 2 functions: vacuum and pressure, which are selected with a knob on the side.  The pressure release valve has a large handle, but this makes it easy to accidentally release the pressure.  The gauge swivels, so the gauge must be fitted with an o ring.  It comes with a nice case and all the little parts has their own places.For both vacuum and pressure, nothing leaked for at least 20 minutes.For about $72.00, Mityvac beats the Lisle vacuum pump (single function and came with broken pressure release valve) handily.Even though it will be extra expense, I plan to look for a bigger container for draining brake fluid.  I bought a rubber cork stopper to see if I can make my own air tight container.
Used this to diagnose my EVAP system in my 03 grand cherokee.  Had a few cracked hoses and a faulty leak detection pump.  This allowed me to rule out the duty cycle purge valve (~$100), the vent valve (~$15), the vapor canister (~$100), and also helped me diagnose the leak detection pump failing.  It has already paid for itself.
Has some cleaning power to it, but nothing like an all purpose cleaner. Leaves a semi glossy appearance behind. Not too glossy but not matte. It's been about a month and it's still on my dash.
I have been addicted to Final Inspection for years and would never have a vehicle without it in my trunk. This is equally as nice for the interior vinyl and rubber weatherstripping and hoses under the hood. It's non greasy and takes no time to apply.
This product really works great for any type of rubber/vinyl/plastic.  However, this item was purchased for a specific purpose, when you detail a car no matter how good you are you will get some wax splatter in places that you never intended, ie rubber weatherstripping, this stuff will take dried wax splatter off perfectly.  Highly recommend this product and highly recommend this item for any detailers bag.Advice use this product ASAP on dried wax, do not let the wax become sun baked!Also perhaps you'll have better luck than I, but I have yet to have one of these bottle arrive intact from Amazon, bottles are usually leaking contents upon arrival.
This worked great to make my vinyl look good inside. Not good like shiny-glistening, but good like Rich and Full. I have a little red rocket (WRX) and it looks so NICE now!
Great all around product with strong uv protection especially important here in Florida. Used another product that really screwed up my dash  board. This fixed it right up and does not leave a shinny surface that is going to reflect in your windshield. I would describe the finish it leaves as satin. I would suggest spraying it on a cloth when doing your dash board so as not to get it on the inside of the windshield. If you just want to use one product for all your rubber and vinyl this is it.
I've used this product for at least 2 decades. You won't find this at you local stores. I used to buy it at the car shows. Now I can get it here. Thank you Amazon.com.It's quite simply the best rubber cleaner/conditioner on the market. I use it on all my door seals every month.
I LOVE YOU - I LOVE YOU - I LOVE YOUThis is my favorite wax.Put down some #21 first and cover it up with #26a few months and Sha Bam, bitches get in! (Just don't get dirt on my mats)
this is an excellent final coat wax for your car.  In my case I use the Meguiar's NXT polish,  wait several hours to let it cure, then apply this wax.  I use it on my car that has color (my other car is white).  Be aware, it is harder to buff this.  I maintain my cars by hand and became tired thei first time I used it.  (I washed, clayed, hand compounded, then did 2 coats of wax).  The next car I did I paced myself and washed/ compounded one day.  Then the next day I polished and waxed the car.
My car is looking Tits baby!!  Use this for some deep shine in the sun!!  I love all Meguiars products!
First off, don't get turned off by the name, Yellow is the color of the stuff, it won't turn your paint yellow!  It does look great on yellow paint though, also reds and darker colors like dark blue and black.  For lighter colors you are better off going with something else, Collinite 845 is a great choice.Pros:-DRIPPY wet looks.  You'll want to grab a towel and dry your paint, its that wet!-Decent durability, approx 2-3 months on a car parked outdoors-Fills in minor swirling-Leaves paint nice and slickCons:-Stains trim (rubber, black plastic)-Needs to be applied very thin, otherwise it can be hard to take off-Can streak if used on a hot surface or if too much is usedOverall, this is a great wax that has been around for a very long time because it looks so great.  its a total steal at the price.
Great product, leaves cars feeling smoother than a babies bottom!!  Also gives paint a great depth and sparkle, would recommend this to anyone!
I use this on both my 2013 Hyundai Elantra GS and 2010 Yamaha Majesty. Gives a nice shine and reflection.
Just about any wax like Hi Tech Yellow Wax (HTYW) will give a good shine if it is properly applied and #26 wax is very good at this while being very easy to apply and buff off.  That's the good part.The real challenge is to make something that will give a beautiful shine AND protect for a long time.  If meeting both these goals is important . . . look elsewhere.Simply put, this wax will last for a couple of weeks, a month at the outside if the car is exposed to hot sun and other difficult environmental conditions.  Don't even think of protection against bird droppings and bug splats.  I've had some of this wax on hand for years and am pretty familiar with its properties.There are many good products to protect your paint.  Don't think wax, think sealant and a good example of a sealant that is easy to apply, gives a beautiful shine and is easy to work with is Finish Kare Hi-Temp Paste wax ([...] which is really a finishing sealant.  Check the web and you'll find almost nothing but positive comments.  This stuff can be layered allowing 24 hrs between coats.The few comments that you will find about 1000p that are not positive is that the shine lacks the depth and "wetness" of a carnauba wax.  OK, so you use Meguiar's yellow wax on top of the 1000p.  A couple of coats of HTYW will give you that depth and wetness plus giving the 1000p a bit of protection.  If you love the look of a newly waxed car, you can get your monthly fix by adding another layer of HTYW each month.BTW, Finish Kare was founded by Floyd Meguiar after he left the family company.
Meguiar's has a reputation of making excellent car care products and this one is no exception. It goes on and comes off easy. I applied their sealer on my new Caddy and then followed it with this wax. (All by hand.) It looks amazing. The shine is so bright it almost hurts. It really pulled out the color of the paint. It gave a depth that I didn't see when it came from the dealer. It looks like a candy apple red after the Meguiar's treatment. It looks so good I'm almost afraid to drive it. :)This is supposed to be long lasting wax, so my plan is to only wax once a year. I'll provide an update if there are any changes.
This is a great wax. I live in Chicago so weather can be kind of crazy. This wax lasts about 3 washes for me until I need to reapply more.
I have used meguiars car products for years. This wax goes on easy and comes off very easily. I polish and wax car twice a year and it still has that new car look. I always polish it FIRST, with meguiars mirror glaze car polish, then wax  with high tech just twice a year and cars always look new.
I'm not saying it's a bad thing or whatsoever, if you haven't tried this then you will love it. Will give you the deep glossy look similar from the gold class or maybe slightly better. it comes easy on and easy off. Did my entire car in less then 30mins with the DA machine. longevity, well as what you expected from a carnauba wax. good for around 4-6weeks.
I have a 2007 RAV 4 V6 and change my own oil. This tool fits the cannister perfectly and makes installing a new filter cartridge and "O" rings a snap. You just need a common 3/8" rachet driver to fit the hole. Worth every penny for this well made, accurate, quality product. If you have one of the 65 mm canister type filter housings, and change your own oil, you can't do better than this. Highly recommended.
Great quality, heavy duty with secure center. Should never bend or have the center piece come separate from the body. Fits perfectly on my Honda oil filters. Much better than the standard ones in auto parts stores. Would definitely buy again.
Works well on our Lexus ES350, and a good affordable aternative to OEM.  What I don't like is the nut is spot-welded with six tiny welds to the wrench part.  It's holding up but I would rather see a continuos bead weld where the two parts meet.
There are many pros to the K-D End Cap Oil Filter Wrench: It is bright, like polished stainless steel. That makes it easy to see, especially if dropped into a dark place. Try looking for a black wrench that has fallen into a dark engine well. It cleans up nicely.  All of the oil and grit is easy to see.  The K-D is only 5/8ths of an inch deep.  Why is this good? That's all the grip that is needed. I bought a whole set of oil cap wrenches in a pretty red case from Sears trying to save a few bucks.  The wells were over 1 inch deep. On many of today's new motors, there is not enough room to get a deep-well wrench on the filter.  For example, I bought two brands of oil cap wrenches trying to find one that would fit a 29-HP Kawasaki engine on a Scag Turf Tiger. They both failed. One wouldn't even go onto the oil filter. The one that would go on would not come off after loosening one turn.  So, refusing to give up, I tried the K-D.  It fit perfectly.  As far as I'm concerned, the rest of my oil cap wrenches are garbage.  I'll buy only K-D - "Made in the USA" - from Amazon.Com.  You get what you pay for.
dont buy this product, I  bought it for my 2010 toyota corolla because you need a special tool for the oil filter housing, the put where you insert the wrench into broke on the first turn, waste of money. at least amazon let me return it broken.
I have had this cap wrench for 20 years, I first bought it for my 1993 Tercel. It worked on the metal canister oil filters of the Tercel and it also works on my 2012 Camry 4 cyl as well. I cannot understand the large number of reviews stating that this wrench broke - how tight are the oil filters they are removing??? I cannot imagine this one breaking if the oil filter is installed properly. The only complaint I have is it sticks to the filter housing (both the metal filter of the 1993 Tercel and plastic housing on the 2012 Camry) so you have to rock it back and forth with your ratchet to get it off.
I needed a decent filter wrench for my 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel.  The filter is up beside the engine and is best reached from below.  This wrench grips the round Amsoil Filter, Which is not wrench friendly with it's smooth surface. It holds the filter securely while I turn it with my 3/8&#34; ratchet using a nine&#34; extension.  Make sure you get the right size range for your filter size.
This works on everything!!! But its awesome!! haha i personally do alot of oil changes for the family and alot of my friends have borrowed and used this too, and we love it! Some oil filters are a bit small for this wrench, but it works really well on medium sized oil filters. Before the ownership of this oil filter wrench, i had so many cases where the oil filter literally just melted shut onto the thread. When i was young, i knew no better, so i would take a screw driver and stab it through one side then to the other and use the screwdriver for increase of torque! hahaha It was tough... a bit funny, and really really messy. but now i never have to deal with that again. Until this breaks of course. So far so good though!!!Great buy!!!
3 things.#1 Spring is cheep and installed incorrectly. Snapped on unpacking so i had to twist it to place it the right (better) way and twist the ends toward inside more, because spring is made of cheep metal that bends like aluminum.#2 Size is too big for regular car filters. Toyotas/Hondas/Motorcycles ETC. Maybe a 5Lite For 3500 utility van will have enough filter diameter for this to fit around, or a huge SUV or a pickup truck.#3 Removal only. does not work the other way around to tight the filter.
Use the tool everyday, I think I loan it out too much lol. Great tool to have for a beginning GS
Given as a gift to my son in law and one for myself,this wrench does a great job of getting the filter off with ease.I would recommend it to every one that needs a good filter wrench.
These are great, everyone should have them in the toolbox.  I lost my old strap oil filter wrench and these are great for the replacement.  Get one or two, you'll be happy you did.
I had this thing for a few months and it worked really well for taking off oil filters. It only made it through like 3 or 4 filters until the spring broke though. I don't recommend buying it.
If you need to change the filter on a 1984 Isuzu engine WITH THE SUPER FAT FILTER  and do not have this tool and somebody else installed the filter with more than per instructed hand tight you are without this tool in a world of hurt.Granted this too is hard to manipulate and the spring falls off  but it is cheap and it will work YOU NEED IT  NUFF SAID.
I think this was my fault for not reading every line of the description before buying.  I saw words like wide range and universal and biting teeth...  What I missed was that it works from 3 1/8 to 3 7/8 inches... I am sure I'll use it, just not as much use as I'd hoped it would get.
This is one-size-fits-most. It works on the filter for my 2002 Volkswagen Passat, but it's too large to grip the filter on my 1993 Chevrolet S10.
I had one of there before and it got lost so I got a new one here. This is a great way to remove oil filters in places where there is only access from the bottom of the filter like newer Subaru cars. Dependable quality and reasonably priced.
When I first got it, the wrench did work, however, it was never that easy to use due to needing to be flared out first to fit over the filter.  At some point, I lost the spring (not sure why it could even detatch) and then it was rendered completely useless.  Ended up buying a couple of the large socket looking ones that come in three sizes to fit common filters.  They're a bit cheaper, but I had to buy multiple so they end up costing more.  But, they also work, easily, every time.
For years I used a band type filter removal tool.  With the new vehicles going to smaller (thinner) filters, the band wasn't cutting it.  My search for a better filter removal tool brought me here.I like to tighten my oil filters as tight as I can by hand, so I always use a removal tool to loosen it.  This tool has never failed to easily loosen the oil filter in all our vehicles.The pros:+ Low cost, which includes free shipping.+ This tool fits 2-1/2" to 3-1/8" filters.The cons:- None that I can think of. :)
So far I have used this on my lawnmower filter ( John Deere D110 ) and Acura Integra.  Its awesome because it GRIPS!  No slippage on the filter, no falling off, ad no need for multiple oil filter sockets.  This is a must have item if you change oil yourself.
I got this for my waverunner oil filter.  I was unable to remove the filter with any other wrench and this one  really grips the small filter.
Great tool to have for stubborn filters. Great starting tool for a new General Service Tech. Really good for Subaru's
If you've ever had to change the oil in your Subaru, you know just how difficult the filter can be to remove with the exhaust manifold in the way. With this handy tool you just attach it to a 3/8&#34; extension and ratchet and you can say goodbye to burnt knuckles for good.The technicians here at the Subaru dealership I work at turned me on to these when I saw how easy they remove filters all day. I'm certain that this would work on a variety of other filter sizes as it expands to fit. Well worth the cash if you ask me.
This thing is ok for out in the open filters, but if you have limited space (ie Harley Filters) there is not enough room for the edges to catch on.  Not a miracle tool at all.
work great for my John Deere X500
I have needed this tool for years.The old style metal tape filter wrench never did do the job right.Now I have a very dependable tool that will remove the filter quickly.I highly recommend getting one of these for your tool box.
Very high quality oil filter wrench and it's made in USA!  Needs 3/8" wrench and gives good leverage to get the oil filter out.  Got this after I struggled with oil filter plier bought from a local B&M store.  Hoping to use this for a long time!
Lisle, great products an I love the quality of them and have had them for many years! You get what you pay for
I bought this wrench to remove the oil filters on my arctic cat quads.  I can never get them off and have resorted to punching holes in them with a screwdriver and then turning the screwdriver to remove the filter.  This wrench worked like a charm and I no longer have to tear  up the oil filter to remove it.
This tool surprised me.  It is made extremely well, I can't over-state this.  This will fit 99.9% of all oil filters, and there is no struggling with other types of tools/wrenches.  It has a spring mechanism where you simply put a ratchet on this and it self fits to any size filter.. and you twist.  Great grip,.. best wrench I've ever used and being universal mean you never need to swap out for another for any other vehicles/tractors, etc.  This replaces a dozen other tools.
i have all the others and they don't come close, makes the job fast and reliable. though one time it started crushing the filter I was worried once it crushes there's no way to use this tool. I found  it was on the edge of the filter moved it up more and it came right off.wish I had this decades ago
The oil filter on my Kubota tractor was cranked on tight by the dealership, and no oil filter wrench seemed to be able to get it off.This one did, and I was able to change my own oil.This filter also fits other sizes, too, so I can use it on my other vehicles.
Tool feels sturdy and like it would help, but ended up being a useless tool in the arsenal.  I wouldn't recommend this since you can hand tighten the oil filter if you used a textured one like the purolator.
This is the one to buy!Pros:- Cheap- Just the right size to remove the blue oil filter on my 2011 Subaru WRX. Attaches to a standard 3/4" ratchet. Hasn't seen a filter on my car that it couldn't remove.- If you're not sure about your filter size, it comes with a template on the back so you can measure up your car's filter against it to see if it works for you before you open it. I like that it has a good range of filters it can accommodate.Cons:- For filters that have been overtightened (i.e. at the dealership), it permanently dents the filter, but who cares? It doesn't dent the filters I installed to the proper tightening specification.- Packaging is kind of weaksauce, but I could care less.- It's not very pretty, and the spring and mechanism are all exposed, but again, this tool is about functionality and you only use it once every couple months.
Bought this after I could not remove a tight filter from my 2008 Camry with a cap-type remover.  This slips on the filter easily in confined spaces and grips the can well, thanks to the two spring-retained semicircles on this tool. Looks like this is very well made and should outlast me. Well worth the price to end the frustration of a frozen filter!
This is the best solution I've used for an all-in-one oil filter wrench (although you actually need 2 to cover the majority of sizes).  It works only to loosen, not to tighten - and of course you'd never want to tighten an oil filter with a tool anyway.  Very nice.Note that this is listed on Amazon at least twice, and one is priced almost three times as much as the other.
No oil filter within its size that this tool can not open.  Buy it once and no need to buy anything again.
This item is primarily used for REMOVAL, not installation of an oil filter that has been tightened too much to remove by hand. The half-circles of metal grip the canister of the oil filter and they dig into that sheet metal to prevent slipping when you apply pressure to your wrench handle and start to turn. The tool may need to dig in enough to dent the oil filter canister depending on the degree of excessive tightening by a previous installer. Each half circle on the tool is brought to initial grip and held there by a set of springs on a sliding mount to accommodate a variety of filter canister sizes.  I used it to remove the original factory oil filter for the first oil change on a new vehicle. I probably won't have to use it ever again. In 40 years of DIY oil changes across a couple dozen different cars, I've never had a leak by simply hand-tightening the canister to the mount.
Great, versatile oil filter.  I have a Passat and couldnt find a wrench to fit it easily. Bought this and it works great.
For the longest time I've avoided changing the oil on my wife's Camry myself simply because it's so cramped under the car and I could hardly even get my hand in to reach the oil filter, let alone get a traditional filter wrench up there. Well, I finally got sick of paying $85 for Jiffy Lube to change the oil and decided to give this tool a try. Worked like a charm. I popped my 3/8" drive socket extension onto the back, slide it over the filter, tightened down, and it popped right off without crushing. Couldn't have been any easier. This time around I replaced the filter with a K&N; filter that has the 1-inch nut on top since that's what I'd already bought, but I may start using this tool and traditional K&N; filters in the future just because it was so easy and it'd save me about $3 a filter.If you've never spent more than 5 seconds trying to loosen an oil filter, do yourself a favor and get this. It'll literally be that quick.
This seems like a well-made tool.  Good design, quality materials, solid construction.  Had a tough time removing my factory-installed filter, but this tool made the job a snap.  And a good price, too.  Highly recommended.
I purchased this back in 1992 for my Oldsmobile and have used it on every car since: Accord, Civic, Integra, GTI, 240SX, 200SX, Maxima, Sentra and I could go on... You name it and it works. If you have a super wide filter or really tight space where the ratchet attaches, it may not be ideal. In my opinion, it's worked on 95% of the vehicles I've owned and this tool is awesome!
If you are going to have oil change at home than you must have this good US made oil filter tool.
I bought this unit for hard to reach grease fittings. So far I have used it to gease u joints. Works decent.
I have a zerk fitting that is in a difficult spot.  Be sides that the standard coupler wouldn't fit, I couldn't hit the zerk fitting head on either.  I have to go in at a slight angle, which made this job a real challenge.I bought two other types of adapters from local auto parts stores without any success.One was the rubber tip, and the other was 4" needle adapter.  Both failed.  Rubber tip couldn't hold the pressure, leak grease around the rubber edge.  The 4" needle adapter was too long and the tip angle was too wide.Bought Lincoln needle nozzle next and it was perfect for this.  The tip was narrow, sharper angle, and the right length.  It fits on my grease pump without any problems.  I was really happy that I got the ball joint greased up.  I would buy this again.
I needed this for the newer style u-joint grease fittings (not zerks). There is no other efficient way to grease these new fittings without this injector. The picture doesn't show it , but the tip has a coating on it almost like bed lining to seal against the ball seat. I haven't tried it on conventional zerk fittings, but I don't see why it wouldn't work, especially on hard to reach/limited access fittings. I'm going to buy another one as backup since I can't find one locally.
works fine, nothing different from other needle greasers I have used.  I have never had one wear out, I generally lose hem before that
Works very well, just remove your zirk fitting on your gun and have at it.Gets into those tight places, tie rod ends ball joints, etc.
Will work great for what I bought it for.Haven't used it yet and will post if it turns out to be a pos.
I've used my Mityvac 7201 less than 10 times.  I have treated it very carefully, as I do all my stuff.  But still, it works poorly for me.The selector valve that you use to switch between evacuating/dispensing is ridiculously difficult to operate.  I can't just push or lift my selector valve to operate it.  No, I have to twist it while pushing/pulling like a madman, and hope I don't break anything (including my fingers).  I was able to loosen it up somewhat by spraying the valve with silicone/Teflon spray, and operating it repeatedly.  But (1) It's still not easy to operate, and (2) I shouldn't have to do that.The expandable plug that must be expanded to evacuate/dispense or removed to pour fluid out is ridiculously difficult to remove.  It's just a poor-fitting device.The tube connector where the main evacuation tube enters the top of the unit leaked when I put it in dispense mode.  I had to pay over $27 to get a replacement "Tube Connector Kit" (822566), since my unit is out of warranty.After replacing the tube connector and trying dispense mode again, I found that the top plate leaks.  I had not noticed this before, but it explains why it always took so much pumping when I evacuated oil!  When I use it in dispense mode now, the main tube doesn't leak anymore, but air and oil come out from under the top plate.  I removed the top plate, and sure enough, "Look Ma, no seal!"  It would be bad enough if the seal had merely failed, but for the seal not to be included in the first place is inexcusable.  Because I didn't notice this problem sooner, the seal (822821) is costing me an additional $13, including a ridiculous $8.75 fee for shipping.Now I've added (not replaced--added) the top seal, and while doing a test, I can hear that the unit leaks air at the top of the pump assembly.  I give up on this thing.This would be a great practical joke if it didn't cost me so much money.
I've done 3 oil changes on my BMW 330xi with this vacuum, and its still going strong. It removes oil quickly and without mess.I've been cleaning mine out with gasoline after i use it. Im not sure if this will make the vac last longer, but im hoping so. Definitely worth $80.
I haven't really used it yet for the reason intended, changing the oil in my jet ski.  So, I can't comment on how well it works.  The main reason for this review is to put it out there that it does not work with a 2000 Chevy Silverado.  The siphon tube does not fit thru the bottom of the dip stick tube.  It would be really nice if Mityvac had a published list of what vehicles it works with and what ones it does not.  I have my fingers crossed that it'll work with my jet ski, otherwise there will be a new/(un)used Mityvac on *****'slist.  Long story short, do your research to see if you can confirm or deny if it will work with your vehicle before you buy it.
I bought this back in march 2009, and have had nothing but flawless oil changes with it.In that time I have performed two lawn mower oil changes, and five car oil changes with this device. (Yes. I put a lot of miles on my car.)On the VW I use a fumoto valve instead of a traditional drain plug.  My Oil filter housing is also designed with a nipple allowing oil extraction.  This combination allows me to draw oil out of the car quickly and easily with a vacuum device such as this.  The Mityvac draws 5w40 and 0w40 out of the car in roughly seven minutes.Many would consider that slow. However I don't have to spend time torquing a drain bolt down, jacking up the car, or sloshing an oil container around.  Oil changes are easily half the time they used to be, and far cleaner.For oil disposal I simply reverse the flow on the Mityvac and put the oil in a multi gallon vessel.Before I bought this device I was worried about implosion: I prefer to change oil when it is warm or nearly operating temperature hot.  So far I have had no problems.
Bought it for oil extraction from a Mercedes and a SeaDoo.  Works great.  Also works for draining diffs, transfer cases, or transmissions before removing pans etc.  It can be kind of annoying to clean out but beats dealing with drain pans in hard to reach areas.  As the instructions say don't over pump.  10 pumps or so and just let it do it's thing.  The last thing you would want is for the reservoir to collapse in on you.
This fluid evacuator leaks around the top cover, both under vacuum and pressure. After taking the cover off it is apparent that the o-ring seal is too small to make up the gaps in the wavy top surface of the cylinder. I will keep it and make it work, most likely with silicone, but that sort of defeats the fluid dispensing function, as I will not be able to thoroughly clean the container without sealing it up with new silicone each time.The fact that it can be used for pressure or vacuum is good. The pump and associated plumbing works great, just a poor design for the cover seal.
I was apprehensive because of the reviews with people saying theirs only worked once.. But I get the feeling that they didn't understand how the thing works. You can easily damage the components by using it wrong. You pump the thing 3-4 times per quart, but you don't want to sit and pump while you're removing the fluids, that isn't how it works. Pump it a 3-4 times and wait for it to get done, then do it again. It goes pretty fast! I did my brakes, trany, oil, power steering, transfer case, and differential before pulling the plug to get the rest and not make a mess and radiator fluid on a couple different vehicles.. went smoothly. I recommend buying a half inch hose clamp for the rubber reducer.
The 7201 is too complicated. This makes it more expensive, but also less reliable. Those extra bits for pumping bidirectionally are prone to failure.Get the 7400 instead. It's cheaper and will last longer, because it's simpler.How often will you really use this to dispense fluid? Probably never. In that case, having the bidirectional pumping capability is really only one more thing to break.Although this unit holds an extra liter and a half versus the 7400, it still won't hold an entire oil change from a Mercedes. Meaning with either model, you'll be emptying it midway through the job.A good way to tell if your extractor works properly on your car is to pump all the oil and then pull the drain plug. If nothing comes out, your car is empty and the pump worked. If oil comes out, the pump didn't get it all and you probably should drain rather than pump your car. In theory the pump can get more out than draining, since it goes to the bottom of the pan, whereas the plug typically has a lip that prevents it from draining all the oil.
After reading all the various reviews on this, I knew I was taking a risk on the purchase but decided to roll the dice to see if it was my lucky day.First of all, I did not purchase this through anyone currently listed as a seller on Amazon, but the source is a very popular tool supplier that is listed for many other tools on amazon.  The priced was only about $4.00 more than the best listed.The mityvac arrived inside a sturdy shipping box that originated from Mityvac. Inside this box, the 7201 was nested inside its own box with a protective card board sleeve over the top of the handle. It arrived undamaged.Per the supplied instructions, I checked the screws in the upper lid to ensure they were tight (they were). I'm not sure if it came with a gasket under the lid that so many had stated was missing on some units. It worked, so why bother with taking the lid off.I tested the evaucation action by drawing a gallon of antifreeze inside the 7201. It did this quickly with only a few pumps of the handle. So far so good.Next, I tested the refilling capability by returning the antifreeze back into the one gallon container.  It did this quickly and very throughly leaving only about 1 oz in the botton of the reservoir.  Very very good.The supplied tubing is very rigid and I plan to replace it with some flexible hose from a local hardware store.I give this a 5 star rating.  Sturdy and well made.
This thing is well worth it overall.  It's not going to work for every vehicle, however.  My Corolla and my Yukon are both apparently not compatible with the down-the-tube method of oil removal.  For my Crown Vic, and my pre-80's cars, it's simply outstanding.It pulls an amazing amount of oil from the pan, just have to fish around a little with the hose after you get most of the oil out, in order to find any small pockets of oil remaining.  After about 3-4 minutes of suction, I removed the drain plug and checked.  I only got a tablespoon or so of drip, which is pretty good, overall.  Transmission oil is just as easy, but I think you'd be better off slightly elevating the front/rear/side in order to force fluid toward the dipstick because the pans are usually flatter/shallower.Quick, easy, and you can just pump it right back into the empty oil container.  You're still going to get some on you...Finally, my one complaint, there is no way to securely fasten the hose and adapter fittings to the pump when it's not in use.  Minor, but irritating, since the little friction clip is pretty much useless if you bump the hose out.  The fittings disappeared into the garage somewhere, since I set them aside while I pumped out the oil.  Would be much better to have a little plastic compartment on the side/base of the pump to drop those into.  Had to adapt a fuel line to use as an adapter.Would definitely buy again, and recommend to friends.  Love it.
I have been using oil extractors for a few years now, namely the Pela 6000 marine pump.  Although I am well experienced with cars, I currently have my oilpan drain plug replaced with a temperature sensor, so I prefer not to remove that and risk damaging, plus, I hate having to get under the car and pray not to spill oil everywhere.The Pela pump was great, the big issue was that there was no easy way to drain the container and if you weren't careful, while draining you would tip too far and cause an air bubble which made oil dump out with some force and splash everywhere (think of turning a 2liter bottle upside down).  Unfortunately I had to toss out the pump because it was starting to leak some oil out of the handle.I read some great things on automotive forums about the Mityvac, and was ecstatic to find this particular model that can not only pump, but easily evacuate fluid as well.  This comes in real handy when dealing with fluids such as brake fluid and transmission fluid.  On top of that, it provided me a VERY easy way to extract oil from the pump back into the bottles ;).The pump worked like a charm, and did exactly what it is intended to do.  This is great for my car because although the car holds about 5 quarts of oil, conventional draining from the pan only drains out about 4 quarts as oil is still left in the oil coolers.  Because of the vacuum that this produces inside of the oil sump, I manage to evacuate almost every drop of oil from the system.One note is that you MUST tighten the screws holding on the top cover.  They are a tad loose when you get the pump, but can easily be tightened and you do not have to worry about the leaking that others have experienced.
Use this for oil changes on my Subaru BRZ and it works great. Just stick the extension that has a smaller tube size right into the dip stick tube.
Works well but hard to empty. No matter how hard I try, I always end up with some spillage. Otherwise it's good for quick and easy oil changes. Both my cars have top mount filter cartridges. So why go under the car? If I had a car that required me to go under, I'd probably just pull the drain plug instead.
If it works, it works pretty good.  Chances are you will get one with a missing O ring though.  Several people on car forums I am a member of receive defective items including myself.  I called customer service after multiple emails went unanswered.  I told them I think it was missing an o ring because it would not hold a vaccum.  They said "yep it might be" and that was it, no "we will get one right out to you" or ship it back for an exchange.  They were very rude.  I just sealed it with some gasket maker and it works now but looks terrible.  I would go with a different unit with beter quality control.
I couldn't get to the lower adjusting screw with a ratchet, too thick and not long enough. This thing has a long handle on it and the ratcheting head is fairly thin. I was able to adjust my driver's headlight out of oncoming traffic's eye.
Got new headlights and this tool works like a charm. Its goon take a while to get your headlights just right. But its easy to do while driving around. Just pull over pop hood and adjust. Super easy.
If you are adjusting headlights on a Ford with 4mm adjusting screws this tool is a must. The review that states that the screw moves out enough to keep you from removing the tool from the end of the screw is questionable however. On all the  headlights I have seen, the adjustment on the light moves in and out and the screw dose not, so If you can get the tool on, you will always be able to get it off. Tool is well made and the infinite ratchet is handy. Should last a lifetime even though the vehicle will not. All mechanics I know have one and Amazon is the cheapest. I ordered one that said it was used, in good condition, for ten bucks. When it arrived, it was on the original blister pack, unopened. This is not always the case, but this time, it was. If you are thinking of buying one of these tools, do it.
This tool fits easily behind the headlight area in my 1996 Ranger pickup. The long handle makes it simple and quick to make adjustments. I saw in other reviews that the space in other Ford vehicles is tight, but there's plenty of room in the Ranger.It's not obvious which way to turn the screws for up/down or left/right, so you have to experiment. You just flip the wrench around to turn the other way. Unlike regular "clicking" ratchet wrenches, the fine-ratchet capability on this tool makes it easy to do micro-adjusting, and it also makes sure that you can turn the headlight screw even if you have only a short swing on the ratchet handle.(FYI: for the Ranger, the bottom screw is vertical, top screw is horizontal.)A great tool, makes an otherwise crummy job simple.
This thing is a life saver for adjusting those accursed 90's ford vehicle headlights. This makes it pretty easy. I'm glad I own this thing for use on my 94 mustang GT.
After I replaced the old faded headlights on my 2000 Ford CVPI, I noticed that they needed to be adjusted. I called a "local and official" state lamp adjusment shop and they quoted me $80 to adjust the two new headlamp assemblies I bought on E-Bay for $50. Right. So I tried to adjust them myself but it was very difficult and time consuming. I bought this tool from a local Napa Auto Parts store. The tool worked OK but unfortunately because the head is so big, it would only turn to a certain extent before being stopped by the other metal piece to the rear of the headlamp assembly unit. Another reviewer below mentioned the same problem. So in the end, the tool was really useless because I could not use it to completely turn the small screws all the way back towards the rear. Ford made such a poor design of their frame that I cannot believe how hard it was to change out my bulbs and headlamp assembly much less adjust them properly.
I needed to aim my headlights correctly after buying aftermarket housings.Did some research and found this tool, it works very well for my 01 Ford Taurus.
For my Crown Vic, this was the only way to get to the adjustment screws and be able to turn them.  Not much else to say, it's the right tool for a specific job.
...and perfectly-suited for the intended purpose. That's all I can - or need to - say about it. Case closed.
I needed it, so I had to buy it I elt it could had been cheaper but it got the job done.
Ordered this tool to align new headlamps I installed in my ranger. If you're looking at this review right now, you probably already know how difficult it is to access the headlamp adjusters. Thats where this little bundle of joy comes in, making it nearly effortless to align ford headlight assemblies. When you're not able (or willing) to use a small ratchet and metric socket to adjust the headlamps, than this is the tool for the job. And as always, Lisle makes an awesome product (which mostly tend to be made in the USA). Overall, great buy.
These are easy to use and comes with many sizes.  Take your time and the fuel line will disconnect just fine.
Solid connectors. You won't have any problems disconnecting that AC line. Some other plastic tools are flimsy and give too much when put to use. These are solid and get the job done.
Used this tool to remove my fuel line on a fuel filter change...OMG I was under the truck for over a hour wrestling with it! Eventually the tool broke! What a piece of junk! I ordered the metal sissor one off of Amazon, got the fuel line off in 2 minutes!!! LITERALLY! I heard the click, and the fuel filter just came out! Save yourself some time and aggrevation...if you have a Ford truck, get the sissor tool, not this plastic junk.
I got this to try to change out a fuel filter on a 03 F150.  It's very nice that it has a bunch of different sizes, but there's nothing to grab onto.  Once you slip it over the fuel line there's only the little larger piece of plastic to grab, and I was not about to generate enough force to pop off the back fuel line.  I also found that the harder I pushed the more the tool sort of opened up.  If you could get your fingers directly behind the wide end of this tool you could really generate a lot of force and probably pop the fuel line off easily.  The way it's set up, though, you can't.While it's more expensive, I think the larger aluminum one-size tools seem like the way to go.  There you actually have something to hold onto.  I should add, though, that I have a feeling my fuel line is a bit rusted / gummed up and so perhaps under normal conditions this tool might work without a huge amount of effort.  Pushing as hard as I could, though, I was not able to get the fuel line off with this tool.
than the first set I had purchased long long ago,,  maybe they were not lisle, but this compnay has been around a long time,  better than my harbor freight scissor kind
It works but like others said, theres nothing easy about getting the old one off. Takes some patience and upper body strength to get it going. Found a similar set locally for a couple bucks less. Quick shipping.
Title says it all.  This puller works well for what is is designed to do...pull seals.  Good tool to have for your shop.
Pops out seals easily. Long handle to give lots of leverage. Lisle tools are good quality mechanics tools that should last.
I decided I needed a new seal puller and picked this up cheap here on Amazon. I tried to pull two seals with it today and it just tore through them like a can opener. It would have been easier to use a hammer and a chisel.
Works as will as other seal pullers I've used.When using a seal puller for my 16&#34; FV wheels I've found that I need to use the assistance of a 5 lbs hammer to pull the seal.Of cource replace the seal with a new one. This is a common practice of RV repair shops.
An incredibly easy to use seal puller that is Made In The USA.  Excellent quality and built to last for many years of normal use.
I did the left side first...took a bit of pecking around.  The trans case is aluminum, so was wary of prying around with a screwdriver or some other McGiver tool.  Right side seal came out with one swing.  It works and is nicely constructed.
I used these to replace to CV boot clamps on a 2006 VW Jetta, and they crimped the clamp up perfectly. I could have tried with general pincer pliers, but these are the right tool for the job, and by doing the job myself the tool has more than paid for itself already.
These will slip off and damage the clamp as well as skin your knuckles.Maybe if you were in a place with good access to the clamp it would work. I was despirate when I bought these and just wasted money
It appears to be well made.  I needed it to secure a band on  cvc boot&#8230;works great.  The tool for the job!!
This tool is a must have for Oetiker clamps. This tool works perfectly! Once you determine the correct size Oetiker clamp with your hose and barb configuration, all`s it takes is one simple squeeze and your done! perfect! I recommend this tool!
Good heavy well made tool that will last a life time, or when they decide to change a clamp design witch ever comes first.  But it is one of those must have tools to do the job rite and make it easier .
And you're probably wondering what happened to the first one... very simple-- someone &#34;acquired it&#34; one fateful day. With that I was in need of getting another pair and after looking at the designs that are out there, I went with the same one that I had. What is nice is that it has a flat that when you crimp down on the ears it helps flatten it out so it is not a big bump. This definitely helps in preventing the clamp from coming apart or becoming misaligned too much while you are squeezing it. There is not much to say except that this one is exactly like my last one and I like the way it works.
Just what I was hoping for. Clamped the boots on my B7 Audi S4 with no trouble at all. Glad I have this in my toolbox now. Can't believe it took me so long to get it.
If you work on cars and front ends, you'll eventually need a tool like this for your CV boots.  Not all CV boots require this, but this particular one allows for torque wrenches or breakers bars to &#34;pinch&#34; the CV boot clamp for proper installation of your boot when applicable.
I wish the tool was about an inch longer. For a 1995 VW Jetta, with the tie rod inserted, I can't clip the wrench part in place because the tool is about a quarter inch too short. It's still usable but the wrench part won't clip in place so there's a lot more fumbling around.
this product worked perfectly and made short work of removing and installing both inner tie rod ends on my 96 camry, easy to use, although it said not to use a impact gun with tool to remove tie rod end, i had limited space to turn the ratchet, so i used the impact gun. no damage to tool, highly recommend this product.
I needed to replace the inner tie rod on my 97 Corolla. I have a fairly well equiped shop but needed this specialty tool to do the job.This tool allowed me to remove the inner tie rod lock nut with ease. It has several difference sizes of fittings that allow it to be used on other vehicles.This tool paid for itself by me doing the job. It is well made and worth the price.
This made the removal of my inner tie rods very easy. I have had issues in the past and wish I had this tool. I will use it only few times in my life but it was worth it.
Worked perfectly as advertisied, a real time saver, great product, good pricing.Would highly recommend, for a mechanic or weekend mechanics. Will save you lots of bucks!
I had never heard of OTC and was hesitant on buying this but due to other reviews bit the bullet.  OTC is very well built, I have bent similar products bought at auto parts stores but the OTC stuff gets the job done.
At less than $100, it's not much more than twice the price of one puller.  I had a stuck ball joint and got this and the ball joint puller was too small but one of the pitman arm pullers was just right.  So it lets you separate a lot of things in different situations without spending a lot of money.Everything is organized well in a sturdy plastic case.  Unlike some cases, this one is big enough that you don't have to turn the screws all the way in to fit the tools in the case.Very impressed at the price and selection.  It's not something I'll use every day but it's something that is nice to have when it's needed.  Besides, if I ever get a new car, I could probably sell this for at least what I paid for it.
You can't beat these tools in ease of replacing tie rod ends.  I haven't tried the pitman arm puller or the ball joint tool yet, but if they're anything like the tie rod tools, they'll make your life way easier.  Don't mess around with those pickle stabbers, get a real set of tools and make your life easier.  They're beefy enough to work on everything the &#34;home mechanic&#34; can throw at them, and it's really refreshing when you can take a tie rod end off with barely a twist of a wrench.  They come in a nice case too!
OTC makes good strong tools. This front service kit has worked like a charm for every front end suspension job I have done. Its  a must have kit to do front end service. Works for many makes and models. The case is durable and keeps everything organized. &#34;BUY IT&#34; it pays for its self, as soon as you use it one time.
I didnt need all the pieces but this kit had what i needed.  I may use the other pieces at a later time, so this kit for the price was a great investment.  Very hight quality.
I bought this kit to give me the parts to do tie rods and center link on an old MB diesel.  The kit was perfect and the tools were decent.  My main issue and reason for not given five stars is that this is not US-made.  Global economy or whatever, when I'm looking for quality tools, I'm not looking for products from overseas sold at top prices.  Sure, these are better than Harbor Freight, but I doubt the third world labor to make this was much higher than the HF part.But that is a rant to have another day, and I can point you towards a better kit for now.  So this is a great tool set for the DIY mechanic.. But I do hope that OTC brings manufacture to the USA.
I was originally just interested in one of the larger pullers for my suspension rebuild but decided it would be more cost effective in the long run getting this complete kit. Very happy I did because its proven to be quite versatile. The smaller puller works great at removing stubborn windshield wipers! All the pieces are very well made and should last for years of use...
I bought this to simply pop the lower ball joint on my 2006 Land Rover LR3 with 70K miles. I couldn't use the venerable pickle fork, so I had to breakdown and buy a front end set. This kit paid for itself in this one job alone. The dealer wanted over $700 for this job; It cost me $200 for parts and $94 for this kit. I used the longest puller for my job and it easily popped off the ball joint with just a couple of cranks with a normal length 1/2 drive breaker bar. The puller didn't even flinch. No warps or bends in the claws.I suspect this kit will serve me for life since I won't be abusing it with a commercial rate of use. I do work on cars more than the average backyard mechanic and I am confident you don't need to drop $400 more on a commercial grade name brand set.
This is another great OTC product! I purchased this kit to disassemble front end components without the use of a big hammer...lol... The tools worked great for their intended purpose. Well made and easy to use. Another great addition to my tool cabinet!
I rarely have a very high opinion of tools made in China but I have to admit that the quality of this set is really nice.I haven't broken anything yet but if I do I will update this review.For the price it's really nice.
These tools paid for them selves with the first use. Good quality but stick to cars and small trucks or you might have problems. Wish I had them when I rebuilt the front end of my Chevy S-10. I will never touch a pickel fork again!
Just as describes and my husband loved it.  He was able to get the job done in no time thanks to this product!
Didn't realize I already had the puller I needed, but it's a good kit to take apart a front end with little or no damage of the seals on the TRE'sGood kit to have......
OTC is reliable, and this is also reliable.  The parts are durable and machined well.  If you wok on front ends, you need this kit.  The case is also durable.
I want to buy another. Not cheap and flimsy like some of the other blowers I have had. Quality throughout!
This is a quality made in the USA product. I needed a blo-gun for various things. I wanted something to blow clean my tools in the garage. The rubber tip is great to protect items you don't want scratched. The gun has a bit of weight and it feels good in your hands. You can tell you are holding a quality item and it will last a long time.
Spend a few dollars more and get the quality part that dealerships use on their own cars. High quality, works great....
I like the style of the gun ,it is well designed and u can get into places with it that some others can't
I had a cheap blow gun in the garage that split when I tightened the fitting too much. This blow gun is very well made and should last a lifetime.
Very sturdy and well built feels like it last a very long time, worth every penny. For the price you definitely get your money's worth.
This is a simple, effective, and tough design that's been around for years.  The valve came properly greased/lubricated, so I know there was no chance of it pitting or rusting as the unit sat on the shelf waiting to be purchase. A little dab of additional lubricant every now and then to make sure the valve remains lubed will likely ensure solid operation for years to come.
But i was very impressed when I opened it and felt how sold and heavy it felt.  Definitely seems much better than prior ones I have had that are likely out of China.
Have not used it yet but the feel and quality in your hand speaks for itself, quality product MADE IN THE USA makes me proud there is still some of this out there in this great country. Have had Milton air products before and they are the BEST of the BEST and worth the difference you may have to pay, in the long haul the difference in price is really cheaper, they are pretty well built to last most of our life times.*BUY USA FOLKS*
It is apparently well made.  Works as you would expect.  Mine reads between 1 and 2lbs higher than the pressure compared with my racing gauge in the 29lb - 44lb range.  It is marked in 2lb increments but seems to bounce around a bit.  wouldn't count on getting closer than within 2 of your desired pressure with this unit.  It is good for filling past your point, knowing you are there,  then use a more accurate gauge and let air down to the exact pressure you seek.  For lots of uses it will be fine just to go with this tool and accept the +/- 2 lbs or so of error.
This is perhaps one of the best air chucks you can buy. True, it isn't cheap and you get what you pay for.Unfortunately though, it does not work 100% on the dualies on my motorhome, which is why I bought it. Turns out, I need the chuck version that has a straight inner tire chuck and angled outer tire chuck. This item has both angled inner and outer chucks.But I can buy a replacement chuck (which Amazon does not sell), or a combination chuck with 12&#34; hose (which Amazon does sell), so I can retrofit the chuck for my type dualie setup.I am giving it 5 stars because I simply ordered the wrong item, so I am not going to gig the product because of that. Amazon though could describe the products a bit better rather than making me go to the vendor's website and looking up the product number to see which one is what I need.
As others have written, the Milton S506 gauge is the top-of-the-line tire gauge and well worth the few extra bucks. You won't regret buying this one.
I have seen this type of dual check tire inflator with gauge at many service stations. No more airing up then change to a gauge to read the pressure. Gets tiring if you are checking all the tires on an RV. With the build in gauge you get the reading constantly as you put air in the tires. This is going to be my main tool for the RV.
This air gauge is dead on accurate, it seals completely, allows air to flow the way it should and the two headed chuck fit all cars, trucks and even those pesky hard to reach motorcycle valve stems. I own three motorcycles and there is nothing more aggravating than trying to fit a chuck in between rotors, fork tubes and tight spaces on a motorcycle. You know what I mean. This two headed angled chuck is angled perfectly to fit over a cycle stem without leaking or having to bend the valve stem. I love it.
I believe if your looking for something to make airing anything up these are &#34;The cats rear end.&#34; If you are some guy who want to complain that it's off .25698 of a pound or 1.94236 of a pound spend the 8000 dollars for the top of the line air gauge. If you want to air something up and recheck it with you .50 air gauge or your 30.00 Snap-on air gauge that was certified and find the numbers are off then don't buy this. If you like me, average Joe, that uses it to check tire pressure, air kids basketballs, and around the house airing jobs, I have had 2 in my life this is the 2nd in 40 years and they both work perfect for these needs and have never failed. Great shipping and thanks again Amazon for offering at cheaper price.
Nice rig but it becomes unhappy and sticks if you use it in cold weather , below 40 sit seems to stick. So if it sticks your back to using it as a tire inflator and using your tire pressure guage again. The entire reason for this thing is to pump air in read it your done. Not the case. If it sticks not you have lost faith in it.
The Milton S506 product was great, was just what I was looking for. I would recommend this to any one!
I purchased this inflator instead of purchasing a 0-100 psi gauge. Combined with a 2' flexzilla whip hose, it is exactly what I needed on my 10 gallon air tank.
Still the best tire inflator on the market. Very accurate and easy to use. those stick pressure gauges never seem to work well for me
Don't waste your time buying all those cheap China knock-offs. This tire inflator is built solid and  does the job.
I have a 5th wheel and I check the tire pressure frequently.  When inflating, it gets to be a chore to air up, remove the chuck and check the pressure.  A constant guessing game:  too much, not enough ... you can never tell.  With this gauge, it get it where I want it first try every try.Nice quality piece of equipment.  Buy one!
Used a quick connect to use with my existing Husky compressor. Very easy to use and easy to ready. It's very sturdy, and I have no concerns about it falling and taking a little abuse over the next few years.
I never thought  a tire inflator would make me think thoughts like incredible, beautiful, precision etc. etc., but this is no regular tire inflator. Besides the fact it is all those things it is also accurate and well built. You may spend a little more on this but it is money well spent, it feels like it will last a lifetime. This thing should literally be in an automotive museum.
This unit eliminates the need for a gauge and makes the job quicker. More than accurate for me. Fair price.
My family runs a small business that has been around almost 200 years. If my ancestors purchased one of these, my guess is it would still be working. The solid aluminum body looks great, doesn't leak and feels good in the hand. There is a reason gas stations use these!I like the fact that the unit can easily be taken apart and serviced/rebuilt. Love made in the U.S.A!The gauge reads accurate and is simple to use.
Great product. Solid and well built. I like the fact that you can service it if needed. I would recommend this if you want a solid inflator gauge.
This is a great quality -  made in the USA tire inflator.The ONLY problem I have found is this model does NOT have a deflate feature, the only was to lower the pressure is to raise the chuck up off the stem slightly to allow the air to leak out.
This is the old stand-by and works very well - you can always turn so you can see the dial.  It doesn't always sit well on the stems for some reason, but using this with an air compressor is so much faster than a small 12-volt compressor and hand gauge.
Man I love amazon I never have to stand in a lne at a store ever again (: and prices are as good or better and the Prime membershiop is the best money you could spend I think..  This air head is the best I've used had a diferent one that would bend the dang schrader valve 1 out of 5 times But that was a totaly different item and dealIn all the hundreds of tansactions I've done with amazon just one was a problem that the seller will not honor their warranty on a a auto radiator
The only flaw that kept me from leaving a 5-star rating is the "inaccurate" gauge.. Everything else works great & the inflator unit itself is built with quality material designed to withstand heavy use.After having read other's review here, I caliberated this Milton S-506 gauge against a high end digital gauge that I use on my passenger vehicles & the reading from this gauge is consistantly 4 psi lower.I bought this gauge for my Chevy DuraMax Dually, so I simply inflate the tires up to 64 psi in order to achieve 60 psi pressure on all the tires.So word to the wise, caliberate it against a better, more precise gauge first before you put it to use, this way you'll know how much to "offset" before you rely on it completely.Overall, it is an excellent value.
I bought this gage, because it's easy to use. Wife friendly, and it's sealed. No dirt will get into the gage. You can nail your presure real easy. Thats why I bought one for myself.  SW
I bought this to go with my Porter-cable 150psi, 6 Gal. compressor. Although the compressor comes with a tire inflation device, I like this one for the built-in gauge, the extension hose and the quality construction.
Sometime hard to see dial wish it was maybe more magified or even the even numbers on the guage in red might help but I do like it, checked it with a guarge and appears to be pretty accurate too! A dial guage seems to be easier for me to read, I would grade this from a B- to an A even because it is well made.
Excellent quality.  American made.  Top notch all the way around.  Built to last.
this item is worth the money when your are trying to set gap on spark plugs. very easy to use
If your working with spark plugs you need this. As standard as they come and guaranteed to work.  Helped me gap my plugs with no problems. If you don't know how to use, just youtube it.
I bought this in conjunction with spark plugs and anti seize and it worked great to dial in the plugs.
I bought this to gap some plugs that I was installing in my car and it works like a gapper should. Just a solid piece of metal that gradually gets bigger as you move along it. Easy to read and use. Would recommend.
I gapped my 8 new plugs in under ten minutes, solid quality and a necessary addition to the toolbox. It doesn't put pressure on the electrode when you're prying the gap wider, which makes it a very good design. This is my third one like it (I always seem to lose them) Just a note: if you've never used this style before, make sure you're using the hole to pry the gap open, resting it on the inner lip.
i used the one from craftsman an it doesnt work as well as this one. i recommend this to everyone
This is a nice, sturdy guage to check spark plug gap.  However, it has only an inch scale, with no metric equivalent on the reverse side.  So if you plan on gapping your plug to a metric value, forget this guage.  Even so, it felt good to use and not at all flimsy.  It's smoothly finished and the marking are clear and legible, making it easy to read.  Well worth what I paid for it.PS. Another reviewer said the one he received had the metric markings on the back side.  I found no such markings on mine -- perhaps the one I received was defective.  In any event, that doesn't alter my rating.  I still like it.
This works exactly as you expect. If your gap is too small, you can just slightly tilt the entire gauge while measuring the gap, and the gap will extend some... that is, measure, push to extend, re-measure, and repeat until you have the right gap.You can also use the inside of the small ring area to expand the gap. This is where I think the tool could improve. The small edge of the wedge on the inner ring could be smaller. Once, I happened to tap my gap too small to fit on that wedge, and had some trouble getting the gap to open back up enough to again work on the gauge.All in all, though, this is a necessity in my motorcycle tool bag.
had these before, it's a great little tool that's been around for a long time, trouble is that I or others have a habit of loosing them so here I go again. guess you can never have to many. still made in USA.
It's simple and effective.  You easily get an accurate rating on your spark plug gap, and you can use the hole to pry the electrode open if need be.  Very convenient tool to have if you're a Do-It-Yourselfer.
Works great, no issues
I should have returned this. It's no strobe light. The Inductive Timing light is so much easier, at least where you have battery power. Its made well but be sure to have the device fully inserted into the wires. Mine fell on the floor for not double checking the wire attachments and it could have damage it.
I have been working on my classic car for years, this product, at it's great price and quality is a great way to test for spark at your cars spark plug, and you can do it by yourself. One of the best tools I have in my toolbox.
This makes it very easy to find the problem. Plus no more holding onto the plug tip to see if you get shocked!
this is a very helpful tool that comes in handy when you think a spark plug has failed and isnt fireing and with this tool you wont have to wounder if the plug is bad or not and is worth buying and i recomend this tool to all do it yourselfers and mechanic shops as well thank you
great little gadget! No getting zapped anymore checking for spark or have the spark plug fall off the engine every time to pull the cord to check for spark!
Needed a good tester for ignition systems on most cars and trucks now days. nothing worse than having a cheap tester and not knowing whether the tester is good or not.  Plus the old put a sparkplug on the wire and try grounding it with the high voltage is not fun any more.  worth the money for a quick use tester.
Needed to check a sea doo. Bright enough to see in normal light and confirm spark.
Does what its supose to and does it accurate...Well made and marked...Numbers print a lil small, I guess you can only wright sooo big on the lil barrel... Giddy-Up.
Got tired of using a ruler or a penny to check tires.  This is very accurate and repeatable and allows me to monitor tire wear.  so simple and so easy and reasonably priced to me.  Nice if you are buying a used car to check the tire wear for remaining life as well as uneven wear across tire or side to side which can help id other problems.
This is everything you need in a tread depth gauge, and nothing you don't. Here's how you use it: You press the &#34;probe&#34; down into the tread gap to measure the depth. You then rotate the cylinder around to match the exact mark to the line. The measurements are on four sides of the cylinder, making them easier to read than being stacked on top of one another. Being able to rotate the cylinder makes it much easier to measure something as minute as 1/32 of an inch.
This did the trick for me, needed to be able to measure tread depth and it does work, its a little confusing to begin with, but once you use it, its easy to use and very handy as well.
Another eason to shop on Amazon - availability.  My local auto store was out of these.  I got this one at a very good price, and it works fine and is easy to read.  I rotate my tires on a regular basis and keep track of tread depth.  Having a few gauges like this around makes it quick and easy to do.  There are digital tread depth gauges that light up, but this is all you really need - no batteries.
There's not much to say here. It's a cheap product and it does it's job. The sliding motion is very rigid and hard to work with at times.
Measured my front and rear tires.  Front 6/32, rear 8/32.  Time to rotate.Accuracy is cleaverly done by putting the numbers around the barrel so accuracy is increased because numbers are spread apart.  Mechanically simple and small to fit in glove commpartment.Can't imagine any advantage to paying more for such a simple tool when this one works so well.  Quality is medium but more than sufficient for this purpose.  Only a few measurements needed for tires.  This tools is the one to buy.
It works well, I wanted to just keep track of how my tire wear was. My only concern was that it is not really calibrated to be right on the money, but if you keep this in mind, it is just an offset.
Any tech should have one of this when recommending replacement of a customers tire. Some states require you have this for state inspection.
It does exactly what it's supposed to do. No problems whatsoever.
Got this to try to extend the life on my motorcycle tires by adjusting the air to keep the tread depth similar on the middle of the tire and on the sides. It appears I was running too much air and the middle tread was wearing faster than the sides. The gauge is simple and straight forward, however, the scale goes around the cylinder that goes in and out, so if you measure tread depth at one point on the tire, you have to turn the gauge around to read tread depth at another point on the tire if it is more, or less, than the first reading. Also, while you can &#34;guestimate&#34; the depth (good enough for personal use) by reading the lines on the gauge, I would just go for one of the digital depth gauges if I had to buy one again.
I manage a tire shop and I use a tread depth gauge all day long, the cheap plastic ones were always breaking, so this all metal one will last a whole lot longer...
No more using the penny or quarter to measure the tire tread. No more second guessing. With this gauge, you can see the actual measurement at an affordable cost. The only drawback I noticed,like some reviewers say, is it leaks oil.
I just want to say thank you to milton for making a METAL tread depth gauge. I hate those little plastic ones. The best part about it is the numbers on the gauge are recessed, stamped, into the metal. So even if the black ink were to come off (hasnt come off ater a few years) you can still read the numbers. A little bit of lubrication with some silicone or rust penetrant helps keep it sliding smooth, and if you dont, it rusts up and makes it really rough and may even give some strange tread depth readings. The pintle is quite strong (used it as a screwdriver on a desperate situation once) and the ink is long lasting.
So your dad taught you to use a nickel and Lincoln's head to tell when it's time for new tires.  However these days, tread patterns and tire materials are a lot different.  It's handy to have tool specifically designed for the task.  The Milton is a pocket clip sized gauge that in increments of 1/64" tells you how your tread is wearing.  No more crawling under the wheel well to see Lincoln...  Just insert it over a tread groove and push down.  Where ever it rests it will stay.  Pull it out (get out your glasses) and read it.  That easy.  It's nice for non-gear heads and people who aren't as limber as they used to be alike.Stopping is the most important mechanical feature of your vehicle.  Tires obviously play a huge role in this, particularly when road conditions are wet and slippery.  So checking your tread and planning for the next big expense of replacing them is important.  Be sure to also check your tire pressure often as this plays a large role in tire wear and driving safety.
I have been using tape measures and the like for my car tires, but I didn't want to take a risk with my motorcycle tires.This tools is very simple to use.  Like others have mentioned, the grease can come off on your hands but that's ok.1/32 increments.I like that the gauge is a little wider so I can make sure it's level.
Perfect. Simple and perfect. Not oily, like others have been saying. It's just great. Add it to your arsenal of automotive tools today!
What can ya say--it very inexpensive, yet it WORKS!!!!!  I spent like $17 on a digital Fowler tread gauge only for it to tell me my tires had 23/32 tread left??  How is that possible, when new it is only 13/32??  If that were the case, I'm sure Yokohama woul dbe hunting me down to steal those tires,lolThis Milton tread gauge is very basic and it works!!  No batteries to worry about. It does feel a tad greasy when you touch it. I just keep it in a ziploc bag in my trucks cub hole!!  Too easy!!  Don't let the low price fool you, it works!!
I bought this first thinking it would be a good buy.  I left it in my glove box, only to find it one day, bent.  Did not last long in storage.  I then I bought the digital tire pressure and tread depth combo.  Way better product.  Look up - Accutire MS-48B Digital Combination Tire Thread Depth Gauge and Tire Pressure Gauge
I rated this product 5 stars for quality and ease of use. The scale is easy to read and moves easily and stays where it needs to be after reading the depth.
Its a tire gauge that is pretty basic to use. You insert the metal pin into the tire tread gap and the rear part tells you the depth. Walk around the vehicle and check all the tires. If the front tires are worn more than the rear, its time to rotate the front tires to the rear.
This is a great tread-depth gauge. It seems accurate and does what it is meant to do. It's built from metal, not plastic so it feels like it's a good quality tool.
Bought this to replace an older model that apparently grew a set of legs and walked out of the old tool box. Anyway its a handy little gauge and seems to be built just as well as my original one. Much better and more accurate than using coins...
I purchased this gauge on Amazon for $5.99 with FREE Super Saver ShippingIt is a handy tool and quite useful; the only drawbackfor me  is that it only measures in imperial measurements.Metric measurements are always more precise.
I bought this to watch my tire wear during the track season. In all honesty I've only used it once but it works.
I had never bothered to measure tread depths until I bought a travel trailer and realized you can wear the tread right off if you have the wrong electric brake controller installed. I bought one of these depth gauges so I can periodically measure the tread depth to be sure my brakes are working right. It does the job and is easy to use.
This product is pretty simple.  Interior tube slides up and down, no spring return.Looks durable enough to take the abuse of being thrown around.Optional, removable pen-style clip is included.
received two days ago, opened up the package, no grease or oil as reported by other users, works as it should be, handy little gadget, no more guesswork with the coins, let coins do their monetary duty.  All thumbs up on this purchase.
I truly don't know why I waited so long to get one of these. Take the guess work outta knowing weather your tires need replacing or will pass inspection. Can't go wrong with this one.
Simple device, works fine, not hard to read.  Nice to have this gauge to check tires from time to time and be able to verify what the tire guys are telling you.
Unit is 100% metal - definitely a plus. Seems quite durable and actually has some weight to it, not like a cheap plastic tool. I had no issue with oil - maybe they've changed their manufacturing process since other reviews were written.Does exactly as described and gives you a number to use so you can track the wear over time - Lincoln's head doesn't do that.Excellent price, would buy again if I lost the current one.
No more using a penny to make sure my tires are safe. This little gauge does the trick.  Highly recommended.
its a solid piece that's easy to read, very handy to monitor tread wear I would definitely buy it again
it's a depth gauge. not much to it- it does the job so you can better measure how much tire tread you have left. handy when you're looking to replace a tire and debating on whether or not you need to replace two tire, or have the new one shaved down.  a handy little tool.
I got it quickly it looks good can not wait to use it as soon as I can go out side .
This isn't the easiest tool to use in tight spots, and it's not particularly easy to read, but it gets the job done.
This gauge is great for the average person. I've used mine for years. I also have a digital gauge which I like a lot better but I paid a lot more money for it. This does everything a digital gauge does except it's a little harder to read. The increments are lost a lot larger. Working on my race car I prefer the digital gauge from Central Tools. It all depends on how much you want to spend. Both do the same thing.
TIRE TREAD DEPTH GAUGE, IT WORKS, I NOW KNOW I WILL NEED TIRES A LITTLE SOONER THAN I THOUGHT, A GOOD BUY IF FOR NO OTHER REASON THAN PEACE OF MIND =)
Old time tech, old time price, as good as new tech... It measures the depth fo tread.. so why all the digital infrared laser type depth gauge devices?  Do they think people are that stupid?  they must.  These are great and will last a lifetime.  If you can read a ruler and you understand tread depth varies at different points on the tire.. you're way ahead of anyway with a Buck Rogers laser dazer..
Simple and cheap. It works and appears to be accurate. Why use a penny when you can pay substantially more for this? :)
You may have a tire pressure gauge, but this tool allows you to measure accurately when your tires need replacing.  It is durable and precise in its ability to measure the depth of your tire treads.
There's really nothing to this gauge.  Very simple and it works.If it was shorter would've been even better, but it's okay for $5.Not greasy/oily on mine as others have reported.
A nice item to keep in your tool box. Keeps the guess work out, when checking your vehicle tires for wear.
Works just fine and useful for making sure that you are road legal and safe. easy to use and store.
IT ARRIVED ON TIME  AND WAS JUST AS  SHOWN IN  THE AD.  THE PRICE WAS GOOD.  EVERYTHING WAS FIN AND.iT WAS EASILY READABLE!!
This is a great product for the money. Worked as described and built very well. Highly recommend this to anyone that works on their own cars.
Waited too long to get this... after breaking connectors and fingernails it was time... Good tool and a fair price - MADE IN USA!!
A must have tool to work on any car, if your check or fixing electrical problems, it makes the connecting and disconnecting that much easier, and you don't have to break anything with this tool!!
The tool is a quality item that is well constructed and looks like it will last a lifetime. I have absolutely no complaint with the quality or construction but did note that the tool I received did not match the picture that should not be allowed for online sellers. My handle was grey in color instead of the advertised red. This does not detract from the tool's performance but I do find it unusual that Lilse would choose a dull color such as grey instead of a bright color that stands out. The grey acts as a camouflage if you drop it or set it down in your engine compartment making it hard to see and fish out from behind your firewall especially in poor lighting. The tool was a lot bigger than what I was expecting but that was actually something I liked. This tool will not help with all electrical connectors on every make and model due to the many different designs but is a welcome addition to my tool chest. Would definitely buy again if needed but would select the easier to see red handled version if I had the choice.
This tool was just what I needed for a difficult to access connector. Lots of under hood connectors get very brittle and fragile with age but this worked great in my application and I was able to lift the retaining snap just enough to remove it without breakage. Will it work every time...probably not but it always helps to have the right tool for the job to minimize frustration. The tool I received had a grey handle not red like the picture. Not a big deal for me but thought it was worth mentioning for people who care about that...
great heavy duty bag I have in my trunk. so many different spots to put your emergency items. and for the price you wont find anything better.
Far too flimsy. This thing feels like it needs to be packed to the gills in order to retain its rectangular shape. Would also appreciate some type of rubber/velcro grip on the bottom so it's not sliding around in my trunk when lightly loaded.It does it's job, hence the no-return, but at the same time I didn't expect &#34;soft sided&#34; to mean &#34;collapsable in all situations except fully loaded.
I was replacing an organizer I've had for years, that was just a little too small.  I saw this and hoped it would be a good replacement, but it wasn't.  If it's full of things it's alright, but it's totally soft sided with nothing really giving any shape to it, so if you don't have it full enough to hold its shape, it's going to start to fall in on itself.The mesh pockets on the outsides are alright but easy to get things stuck in that mesh.  I would've liked a couple of the open top pouches to be solid sides to facilitate holding different things.For the price, though, as long as you are going to keep stuff in it to help it hold its shape, it's a decent deal.  Not much you can find that's bigger than a visor organizer for under $20...
I considered all types of bags,plastic boxes and even Tupperware. But this Highland Organizer is super and fits in the left cornerof my trunk. At first glance, it appears flimsy but once it is opened and filled, it is quite substantial and hold a tremendousamount of stuff. I would consider a second one!
I wish this had rigid dividers instead of just fabric. The unit is too floppy in general unless you load it up with a lot of stuff.This is only a tiny but more useful than a standard duffel bag.I would recommend you spend a bit more and get this one -Snap-on 870116 21-Inch Trunk Organizer and Tool Carrier. I did and am much happier with it as it is ridid and seems to hold just about as much stuff.
Have Used Mothers protectant for years and love it. Does a great job and I like the smell. Have had numerous people make comments how our 2011 CRV looks and smells brand new still!!
This product is excellent.  If you are the type who pays attention to detail, especially cleaning your dash, you will not be dissapointed.  For best results, follow the directions EXACTLY (this goes for all Mother's brand products).  I've noticed that using Mother's two step model: (1) evenly apply the product over the surface, wait, then (2) buff the surface to ensure an even application.  Using this product like one would for armor all will not give you the intended results.  Additionally, even a left-leaning Liberal (I am not either) would love this product as the ingredients are ph balanced.
I use this stuff all over my jeep all plastic parts even under hood. shines and protect for a long time mothers is the best
I used to be able to find Turtle Wax UV protector, which was a no-gloss protectant, I liked for plastic headlamp and taillamp covers.  However, it's been out-of-production for a while.This stuff, though, is perfect.  No  running, no greasy residue, no excessive wiping required.
I used this product on my 2014 Genesis Coupe and it is decent. It kind of leaves a semi glossy surface. Nothing that will blind you like some armorall products haha.
Rather than buying the individual spray bottles it is easier to buy the refill in addition to one spray bottle. Mothers makes the best products hands down.
ALWAYS ALWAYS A GREAT PRODUCT FROM MOTHERS. They have such a quality line of car car products. You can always find anything your looking for...~!!
I had always used a different brand for all my interior car detailing.  I was out of product and came across this.  After reading some of the reviews I thought I would give it a try. Was I ever happy I did. This is the best detailing product for all interior car surfaces that I have ever used.  My car is 12 years old and I have always kept it clean and looking good.  After using Mother's Protectant on the dash and interior surfaces everything looked new again!  Even the faux wood trim.  I then applied the product to every seal around the window and doors, they then looked deep black and new.  In spots that were to small to get into I used an old toothbrush.  I have now made Mother's Protectant my go to interior detailing product as well as the product I use on all weather stripping and rubber seals.
Easy to apply. Long lasting protectant
This is by far the best protectant. All the other ones i have tried always leaves my dash board too shinny or too dull. This has the perfect amount of shine and it lasts for a long time.
AMAZING AWESOME WAX....~!!
I have been using the detailer as well as the liquid wax and I did not know what I had been missing. This paste wax last far longer than the liquid stuff. It is easy to apply and just as easy to polish. I love the product and it is priced very reasonably.This can will last me through many wax jobs.
I am a detaling nut and this wax over a top quality polish makes the car look loved!
I have been using this cleaner/wax for about 20 years.  I have tried many others, but I keep coming back to this over and over again. And it smells good too!!
Before this, I was using a spray wax. This takes a bit longer unless you have a power ball but it does a better job. Excellent, like all of the Mothers products I have tried so far
This pure carnuba wax goes on easy and wipes off easy and sure makes a car look brand new, of coarse I have a pretty good pint jod on my chrysler 300-C and that helps for the nice look.
You know the difference when you have this on your car and the rain pours.  The water doesn't stick.  Nice slick surface.
Mothers 05500 California Gold Carnauba Cleaner Wax Paste - 12 ozI HAVE A LOT OF BOTTLES AND CANS OF WAX AROUND THE GARAGE. After using this last weekend on my 69 I am tossing out all the other stuff and sticking to this product. My truck looks so sweet and silky smooth I am sold.***DOES NOT COME WITH APPLICATOR PAD***Buy with confidence.RagenRat
Have tried many different waxes on both modern and classic cars, both the old school rub-all-day types and the new-school spaceage polymers... but I keep on coming back to Mothers Carnauba.Thoroughly clean each of our cars about once per month, and then they get a good detailed waxing at least once each year. I will wash them with a good car wash, use a clay bar to remove oxidation and then rebuild the deep shine with this wax.Mothers Carnauba really is easy to apply and a little goes a long way. I wax sections of about three square feet at one time, rubbing in a good layer, giving it a little time to bond, then hand buffing the residual off.  The results looks great, but if I have a few extra minutes I'll usually run an electric buffer (have a nice one from Craftsman) over the entire car to give it that totally gleaming car show style finish.One can of Mother Carnauba does go a long way, which makes it a really good product for the price. If looking for a good wax, this one is highly recommended.
I bought this to compare to my favorite one. I can't see any differance? So give it a try. Costs a little less too.  SW
I have been using Mother's California Gold Carnauba Wax for over 20 years.  It's easy to apply, and tends to spread out nicely, so when it dries there usually isn't a thick layer with a lot of clumps, that needs to be removed.  Dried wax buildup happens in some areas, but it isn't as big of an issue as with some other brands.A can of wax usually lasts a really long time.  Of course buffing is the part that involves the most work, and while it still takes a little effort, it's not that huge of a chore with this product.  Very little dust is generated, and you get a nice shine that holds up reasonably well even under high UV exposure.Perhaps there is slightly less in the can now, or maybe the formula changed, but a can cost about $10 way back then, and it's still about the same price now.  Although I mostly prefer to use liquid or spray on type wax products, there are still times when I want to use paste wax, and this is the stuff I go with.  It does the job, doesn't require that much muscle, and also has a really nice smell.  Try it, you'll like it.
I've been purchasing fancy waxes and polishes.  They all look good just after being applied, but I noticed that they don't seem to last.  I thought I'd go back to the basics and just try good old carnauba wax.I am not disappointed and will stick with carnauba wax from now on.  It keeps on beading water way past the time that the others starting sheeting.
Looks great. Goes on easy and comes off easy.Only downside is it will last about a month or so depending on washing and weather.
If you want a product that has been around for yrs and yrs then buy this.  It will work good and cost less than others.
Hasn't changed my life, but it gives a nice polish. Goes on and off easily. Not a huge bottle, will order a couple next time.
I detailed two of my cars this week and used a paste wax on the Corvette while going through the identical process on my Jeep except using this liquid wax as the last step. The wax was very easy to put on and easy to use. In-fact I think it was easier to use than the paste wax. However, when I put both vehicles side by side the shines look identical. I think that is a plus for the liquid wax as it is easier to put on and remove than the paste waxes. I have never gotten a bad Mother's product. This is highly recommended. It may cost a  fraction more than some of the store brands however it is worth it.
I began with Step 1 Polish, and Step 2 Micro-Polish and Glaze, and finished up with the Step 3 Wax, using the Mothers Powerball 4Paint.  The Powerball put the wax on smoothly and uniformly, and after doing Step 1 and Step 2, my hands welcomed the break using the Powerball.  The car looks a brilliant white now.  With all the work preparing the finish, I put 3 coats of wax on it.  The car is a full-size, and there is enough Step 1 and Step 2 to do at least another car, and despite the 3 coats of wax, there is still enough in the bottle for maybe another 2 or 3 wax jobs.  Very pleased with the 3 Step process, and the Powerball.
The shine is pretty good and it still shined after 3 consecutive rain days. A little lasts a long way so use thin multiple coats instead of one thick coat. I had a little difficulty buffing off the haze at first (cos I let it dry too long) but i applied a few drops of water on the cloth and the haze came off pretty easily.
I got these for my brand new car since you do not really need to polish a new car. They work great. They pure Carnauba with no garbage added so you can rub them on any surface of your car and they do not leave a white film on, which is a huge bonus. They do give a nice shine and you really feel the protection they provide. I strongly recommend this WAX.
This was great. After using Mother's Clay Bar System, I applied this wax and it was as smooth as a baby's butt. Some other waxes that I have tried were much more difficult to apply and buff off.
this product is as good as the turtle platinun, carnauba Meguiars. and the prices are similar as well as the quality of the three brands, the brightness of the car depends on the quality of the painting and not the wax. for this reason the high prices of other products can not be justified, after several years of experience in this field I recommend fulfill any of the three, I recommend waxing every month depending on weather and if the car is exposed or not the sun ..
I really wasn't impressed with the overall result of this Polish, as part of the Mother's 3-step kit. I used all 3 steps, and still think I get better results from Tech Wax.
As the french say: cream de la cream.Doesn't get any better.First you polish your car and after a few hours you apply this product. You apply this product every week for 3 months and your car comes alive, like smiling at you.I finished restoring a 35 yrs old BMW classic and this is the last stage.One has to be careful since other drivers keep looking at your car and may crash.
Item arrived when promised, and was well packaged. I like the way this wax goes on, and it does leave a beautiful brilliant shine on my car.  It does require a little extra effort to get that sweet look.
Great wax! Hazed over in about a minute and came off really easily. Non-oily and gives a great shine. It didn't stain any trim pieces either. Plus it smells great like all the other Mothers polishes/waxes/detail sprays.
I like the shine it gives but water doesn't even bead up after a few short weeks.  Easy to apply and remove (much easier than NXT) but if it doesn't hold a bead why bother.  I think this would be a decent mid season wax but I won't bank on it for a winter storage wax.  In the end, wax is cheap - rust and a bad finish isn't.
After the rain I'd usually have dirt on the sides and on the back.  After doing all 3 steps and going through a day of rain, those pesky black rain drops weren't on the back or splash marks on the side.  the dirt didn't stick.
Works well.  I have been using Mothers for 6 years to wax my Honda Ridgeline truck and Audi A4 Cabriolet.  I do the 3 step process a couple times a year and then just reply Carnauba wax as needed.  This gives my car & truck a great finish and the paint still looks brand new on both!
I reviewed the other Mother's products and like I said before you cant beat this price. I bought steps 1-3 and the claybar. Once my products run out I will buy this again.
Ease of application and removal leaving a beautiful, durable shine. I have detailed high end cars for years and this is a great product for the price. Mother's is a name to trust when you want excellent product quality. They over achieve.
Mothers car wax and polish are the best car care products i have used. If you care about your cars paint i recommend buying 3 Mothers Ultra Soft Microfiber Quick Detail Towels, MOTHERS California Gold Car Wash and doing the three step polish and wax twice a year.
I WAX THE CAR/MOTORCYCLES ALL THE TIME AND I RATE THIS LIQUID WAX HIGHER THAN MEGUIAR'S THAT I HAVE USED FOR YEARS.  YOU WILL LIKE HOW IT GOES ON AND BUFFS/SHINES UP SO EASILY.  GREAT FRAGRANCE TOO.
I used the Mother's 3 step process on my C6 Corvette.  Easy to apply and wipe away.  Each step has a different purpose and I noticed a nice clean deep shine by the time I finished step 3.  I was a bit skeptical and had tried different carnauba waxes in the past.  But this 3 step process has given my car the best shine to date.  I'm a believer!
This product works and smells amazing, however only use this product if the paint is entirely clean, if not use Mothers Cleaner Wax instead as it cleans and protects in one step.
this is a really good wax. it gives a deep gloss and shine. It goes on easy and comes off easy without flaking.very good value.
This product shines like no other! Goes on easy, comes off easy. I've used every wax out there this one is by far the best. I use it on my new MazdaSpeed3. It keeps my car looking amazing. Water beeds for more than 3 months and I cover my car daily and wash it ever week. Good job mothers! Oh, by the way I use the three step system. This one works the best.
Very good product, goes on easy and more important comes off the same way. Easy to use by good old elbow grease if not using a DA machine. Do not hesitate to purchase. IMO, much better than that product that starts with M and beads water nicely. I am already on my second bottle and here at the big A I don't have to go to circus town (WM) in my car.
I've used many other 'over the counter' brands from Meguiar's NXT, GoldGlass to Eagle1 Nanowax and none of those products comes close to Mothers Pure Carnuba Wax when it comes to deep, reflective shine and ease of use. Period.I started using this product and noticed the difference right away. Seriously, this is the most underrated wax on the market. Anyone with a black car should give this wax a shot and I will make a bet that you too will see the difference.  Even my coworkers saw the difference right away.  Just by switching to this wax.  They commented that it was "brighter and really glossy".This wax does provide a very nice, reflective shine.  Very easy to apply and wipe off. You won't be disappointed with this wax.  Other waxes (especially those synthetic polymers wax) Such as NXT requires that you wait at least  20 minutes for the wax to dry before you buff it out.  Even then, they still show signs of "smears or streaks or oily residue" on dark colored cars.  This carnuba wax dries in no time.  By the time you apply the last coat, you can start buffing out the first panel you apply the wax on.The shine is just simply amazing.  The smell however is not.This is one of the most underrated waxes out there.  Do yourself and your car a favor and get this wax. (See comments for pics!)
Great stuff.  I use Mothers ultimate wax system and it brings back very aged paint.  I would recommend this product.
I used this as step 3 of the 3 step process which has as step 1 the Gold Pure Product and the Micro-Polishing Glaze as step 2.  This step is the hardest of the 3 and takes the same amount of time to do as steps 1 and 2 combined.  You could probably just use this on your clear coat finished vehicle and get excellent results.  The wax is pretty thick and it takes some effort to apply and some sustained effort to remove.  When you are finished you will have a smooth, shiny, mirror-like finish which is gorgeous.  Be prepared to dedicate an entire afternoon to do all 3 steps.  On my Mercedes SLK roadster it took 2 hours and I am very happy with the results.
I'm not a professional car detailer but I have been waxing my own car for a good 10 years and understand the steps. I hand waxed this product onto my car and it was difficult to polish out with my soft terry cloth. For some odd reason the wax was leaving residue even though I was trying to buff it out with fresh cloth. After buffing the car, it did not come out as expected and the surface did not feel like there was wax, in fact it felt like I just washed my car only. I'm thinking this product needs to be applied using an orbital buffer as it requires more even pressure throughout. I will follow up on this review after trying out using a buffer.
I have a dark colored car, so I purchased one of those "black" tinted spray waxes which claimed it also cleans and shines black plastic and metal trim.  Wrong.  I also use a regular (not black) liquid spray polish detailer.  It's okay on regular black plastic and window trim surfaces.But neither could clean the paste wax residue ruining the look of the textured black plastic on top of my rear bumper.  But Mothers Back-to-Black certainly did.  Now my car looks showroom new again.The product is a cream colored liquid (not black).  So my product applicator (an old sock) and my wiping cloth (an old t-shirt, both from my husband) aren't stained.  I'm very happy and I would I highly recommend this product to everyone.
This stuff works fantastic. I have a lot of black bumpers on my car, and after applying this the car really looks like new. It makes a bigger difference than I expected. You do need to reapply it every few months or so to keep the effect going.
I drive an older SUV that has a lot of plastic on the outside. The plastic trim had lost it's color and looked sun damaged and pretty terrible. At first, "back to black" didn't sound like what I needed, since the plastic I needed to treat was grey, not black. But, I read about this stuff on another website, and it can be used for all sorts of plastics/vinyls etc., not just black color. Anyway, this stuff really works. My car is looking much better now. I did the first coat and it is looking very good. I'll follow up with another coat soon, and hopefully it will look even better!
Bought product to try on mirrors and bumpers and mud flaps a friend said ot is amazing stuff we will see
The Jeep Wrangler (1999 model) has wide plastic type fenders over each wheel well. These black plastic fenders, at least on my vehicle, turned and discolored over the years. I tried numerous products and while many would restore the black, the color would eventually fade and I would be right back to where I started. I ordered this Mother's product and applied that to my fenders. I was very surprised at the amount of color restoration I got from applying two or three coats. The black did return and my fenders looked great. I have now been driving the vehicle about three months and I still have nice looking fenders. I also used the polish on my black running boards and the end caps on both the front and rear bumpers. All received the polish well and color looks good. It is easy to apply and then wife. Don't leave the polish on too long after drying as it will be more difficult to polish.
This product is PERFECT for keeping the plastic fenders and bumpers on my Wrangler JK.  I am kind of a freak about keeping my 'baby' looking new and this does the trick.  I've even had a fellow Jeep owner stop me in the parking lot of REI and ask me how I kept my bumpers and fenders looking so black.  Definitely does the trick... although a bottle doesn't go very far for me.
This product works well after multiple coats. My 8 year old Accord looks much better with the plastic pieces a rich black. Just be patient because you will have to put on around three coats over several months
Great for all those black trims on the car.Not a permanent fix, but should be good for a few months, depending on how faded your black parts are.
I use this on a variety of parts on my car. I use it on the B pillars, the black side mirror mounts, areas of trim around the door jams, trunk sealants, etc.I wash these parts with whatever method is necessary, make sure the parts are completely dry, apply the Back-to-Black and let it dwell for 10-15 minutes. Then wipe of the excess and reapply (with MF cloth or applicator). I let dwell again for ~10 minutes and wipe down excess with clean MF towel. I use the cheaper towels for these areas as there is no use in using premium MF towels for this type of project.The areas have a nice semi-gloss shine and last and last for at least a month or longer. I've never gone past one month without treating these same areas again so maybe they'd last even longer, but, I just prefer to keep my car looking reasonably clean.It's cheap enough and a little goes a loooong way. No need to over-apply. Use sparingly as using a 2nd application is recommended and worthwhile.
If you are restoring a 35 years old BMW classic you need only the best and this (as all Mothers products I have used so far- and they are many) is among if not the best.Several applications (every week)during the first 3 months have restored all rubber to its new like condition and this brings not only a better look but also brings back the purpose of seals all over the car. From noise reduction to air tightness to better working AC and well,many other advantages.Believe me, I don't own the company!
Under suggestion of the owner of a local autopart store, I tried this on my 2006 Mustang convertible top, which is black and made of vinyl. The results have been amazing. I was previously using Ragg Topp, but I find this way better in how easy it is to spread it. It is also far cheaper.
I thought that the product would be thicker but it goes on smooth and last for a long time just rember to buff it out with a clean cloth or when it rain it will streek.
Mothers products way back when they for motorcycle tanks and fenders were the shizzle. Lets just say if its mothers the price is a bit more but so is the quality.
I've tried every blackening product out there, Black-Magic, Armor All, Meguiar's, and even my own concoction and none work as well as this. Not only that, it lasts about 3-4 weeks outside in the weather, which I find amazing.Also it seems like the more you use it, the better it looks and the longer it stays black. Plus it has a pleasant smell, which is always nice.The only complaint I have is that it is a bit runny, which can make applying it a bit hard, but it's still worth every cent.A must have for anyone with black trim/molding!
I use this stuff to keep fenders black on my jeep tj. then I retouch every time I wash my jeep
I purchased this product based on positive reviews by amazon.com customers to restore the rear trim on my 1998 Buick Riviera. While it makes a nice shine, Back to Black did NOT make the trim black again; it remains grey. I expected a more drastic improvement, like some of the tire shine products.In fact, I tried Black Magic &#34;Tire Wet&#34; on the rear trim, and it provides at least as good a shine as Back to Black.Bottom line : product is okay, but will not by any means restore black trim back to black
I've heard of various tips and tricks to bring your black plastic exterior parts back to life - from using a heat gun, to, well, &#34;Back to Black&#34;.  This lasts longer, and doesn't require a heatgun treatment which may harm other parts.  I think it looks brilliant - and so far has not 'crazed' any surface I've used it on.  I can safely recommend this for a 'make it look newer' project.
Applied with a sponge wax applicator and follow up with a microfiber wipe down,  this product leaves a &#34;like new&#34; luster to the black plastic trim surfaces of your car. Easy to apply, the results have that just like new appearance that you look for. Great under the hood too where other products leave a greasy too wet look, this is my go to product for a classic, understated appearance.
this product works great ..I applied one coat and you could see the difference. I applied 2nd coat and my plastic trim looked brand new ..its been 3 wks and still looks great....the only down side is that it will stay oily or tacky until it dries..i will buy this product again ....
My car does not have a lot of black plastic trim. It's a Cadillac CTS, and the only black areas are around the front and rear fascia, and the door pillars. But these black plastic parts had begun to fade after about 2 years. The car is even garage kept most of the time. Many of the black trim restoring products on Amazon have a wide range of reviews; from 1 to 5 stars for most if not every similar product. I chose Mothers because I use many of their other products, typically with good results. Back to Black did not disappoint. I applied it to the plastic trim around the fascia using "12pcs Waxing Polish Wax Foam Sponge Applicator Pads Fit for Clean Car Vehicle Auto Glass High_quality Yellow Useful NEW" (from Amazon) which are ideal for this task. Mothers instructions state that the area should be buffed after application. I found buffing unnecessary on the trim around the fascia. I did try buffing at first, but these areas are somewhat rough-textured and seemed to absorb the liquid fairly quickly. Buffing did not change the appearance.However, on the door pillars, the texture is smooth and buffing did make a appreciable difference there. Buffing with a soft towel helped to more evenly distribute the Back to Black, eliminating some minor streaking resulting from application. Buffing also improved the gloss of the black color, which would have been more like flat black prior to buffing. So whether to buff or not depends on the type of material where the product is being applied. Back to Black is also very good at removing any excess wax that gets on the fascia trim areas.Most of the negative reviews of this and similar black detailing products are because they need periodic reapplication. I found this to be true also of Back to Black. But no black detailer is going to be a miracle product and last forever. Mothers lasts for 2 or 3 months depending on the weather and how frequently the car is washed. This seems perfectly reasonable to me.
I'm on my 3rd bottle of this stuff. It does the job for me. There might be a better product out there but every time I run out of Black-to-Black I just buy another bottle. It works so why should I try anything else? Ok, that's a bad attitude. When I use up all the product in this bottle I'll try something different. Maybe.
I tried this on my Exterior Black sidings and bumpers and it doesn't last long.  But on the interior black this product works well.  It keeps my interior black and new look.  I gave this an OK product but not really impressed with it.  Let's see how long my interior look last on this Black to Black product.  But for now it's an OK product.
Used on a second hand tonneau cover, restored the black back to new looking.  It took a couple of applications, but worked well.  Also effective on other trim items, not necessarily only black.  It works like a clear polish that leaves no white residue.
I used this in place of Armorall wipes one day to discover it did a better job and lasted way longer. This will turn anything that you have black (black plastic, rubber, leather, etc) that it is safe to use on, back to the original color. The only down side that I have noticed is that it will come off when wet. Otherwise, it looks great and doesn't seem to be affected by the sun, at least, not that I can tell.
When you first apply, this treatment looks great.  Then when it rains it streaks, so have to touch up.  This seems to occur even when applied and polished per directions.  When it is first applied though it really dressed up old flat dull black plastic trim on my vehicle.
This product restored my black trim on my bumper, fender and side door panels! The only draw back is the bottle is small and if you have a large truck you may want to invest in another bottle.
Bought Meguires and Mothers brands.  The Mothers brand is a lot better.  It gets the plastic trim back to black, and it stays that way alot longer than the Mequires brand
It's been three years since I last applied this to my '08 Avalanche, and my black trim was burned up, faded with a white film and looked  really shabby.  After washing and drying, and applying Mother's back to black I am thoroughly satisfied.  Mothers did a great job restoring my trim back to black.My trim was very dry and It absorbed so much product that I used the whole bottle and didn't get to the mud flaps and the running boards (which were not as bad as the trim around the bed and cab of the truck). A couple of things impressed me, it really evened out the blemishes and brought all the trim to a consistent black color.  This was extremely evident around the bed of the truck where part of flat areas are expose and some flats areas are protected by deck lids (on the various compartments), which when opened revealed a sharp line between the two areas.  After applying back to black you could not tell the difference, the trim was even in color and shine. It looked brand new...  Impressive, indeed.But just to say out loud, it's important to work back to black into the sun baked dry parts.  if it is really dry, like mine was, you may have to hit it several times.  That's the key, get the rag saturated with the product and keep working it in until the trim cannot absorb any more.  Once you've reached that point, go back with a clean dry towel and wipe off the excess and buff it so that the shine is in the trim and not from the excess product on the trim.  Don't go by sight, feel the trim with your hand until there is no excess product on it... keep drying and buffing until the trim shines on its own.  If you don't, you'll get streaking. If you do, you won't regret it.
I began with Step 1 Polish, and continued with the Step 2 Micro-Polish and Glaze, using the Mothers Powerball 4Paint.  The Powerball saved my hands, and this Micro-Polish and Glaze made the white surface of my car reflect like a mirror.  You can't see the micro scratches easily on a white car, but you could see how smooth the surface was, and you could feel it.  I followed up with 3 coats of the Step 3 wax, and the car looks showroom new.  There is enough left in the bottle, after doing my full-size car, for at least another full-size car.  Good value!
This product is very good but not great. It's their consumer grade polishing glaze and their professional line is really great! A good product at a very reasonable price.
When I hit the three-quarters post I'm ready for Mother's glaze to slide to the finish line.If you do it right the paint looks like glass. However, if you have a lousy paint job don't waste your money.This product is for people who can afford the best finishes and want to  sit around and get classy-eyed and polish their cars trying to impress someone. No machines. You need a microfiber towel and keep flipping it over  to get a really nice glare.I don't care what is in the stuff. It shows a noticeable difference. I care more about what beer I'll drink doing the job.
The Micro-Polish used with the regular Mother's polish really intensifies the shine. Plus it does a great job at filling in any larger scratches.
After using Step 1 - Pure Polish (really a pre-wax cleaner), I went on to this Glaze/Sealer.  And boy does it make my car look REAL good!Although this polish won't cut harsh enough to remove swirl marks and scratches, it seems to "hide" swirl marks and make them less visible (possibly by smoothing out the microscopic edges?).  Add to the fact that it doubles as a glaze/sealer, and it fills up the swirl marks and scratches.  Scratches are still visible, but the edges are smoothed out and less visible from farther away.  Swirl marks are still visible, but only up close and takes a tiny bit more focusing to see them.  So, it doesn't cure scratches or swirl marks very well, but what does it do best?  Enhance the color!This glaze makes the paint "pop" and adds even MORE depth, revealing long lost shades in some paint colors (in my case, Mazda's Galaxy Grey Mica).  It brings out the color of the paint and makes you appreciate your car even more!  I feel like this glaze will be effective even on lighter colored cars (maybe not white...) since it seems that darker colors seem to get all the love when it comes to detailing. ;)Believe me, after you do this step, you'll be looking at your car from different angles trying to figure out how many different colors & shades you can find and how "deep" the paint looks.Well worth it.
This is part of the 3 step process.  It brings the show room floor shine back to an aging vehicle.  You see the difference with each step.
I bought steps 1-3 and you cant beat the price.  This product is easy to use and it also smells great.
When it comes to car care mothers is the best. I did the three steps of the polish and wax products and it cleaned the jet black paint on my car very good.
I purchase this product and applied it.  I skipped Step 1 since im applying it to a bnew car.  After applying this product i can immediately notice the effect.  It's very shiny and Glossy.  Now for my Step 3 i did not use Mother's Carnauba but i used Mother's FX Synwax and what a combination.  I'm really glad i tried this combination.  It works with my car.  I hope it last long..
I use it to wax my cars. It works great and smells good. The price is reasonable compared to other products. I use Porter Cable 7424XP and Meguiars 6&#34; foam pads.
Reason I bought this:I have been cleaning, claying, then waxing for awhile now. I own an 06 scion TC and pampered it with the steps above. but then tragedy... minor scuffs from the kids getting out of the back seat. Careless people brushing their groceries/backpacks/fat butts against my freaggin car!after all the scuffs and scratches washing was the only real priority now, years later I look at my once gorgeous car and think to myself it still looks ... okay. then i miss that feeling of satisfaction of that wet/glossy look. I tried waxing which made the car shiny but the scars still remained, it only covered the lightest of scratches at most.Review:Then by looking up any new clay bar kits i happened to see amazon recommend a 3 step from mothers car care products. I didnt know about sealants, and after reading it i bought the whole kit and was surprised. step one cleaned well enough, but step 2 made those pesky scratches less noticeable, only I would see them since I know where they are. the deeper ones are still their but the glaze makes it so shiny its hard to focus on the scratches, which are usually the focus of a car. This is probably the best visual result from the 1-3 process.Tips and processClaying has to be key for it to work, so I think I like my 5 step process better. 1 wash/day 2. clay 3. mothers step 1 pre wax cleaner 4. mothers step 2 sealer glaze and last 5. Mothers step 3 California gold wax (if you arent a mothers fan for wax you can use any you like ontop of the glaze) Personally i like mothers wax, its shines well and easy to apply. I will wait to review the wax because I want to see its durability and water beading properties. I like it better than turtle wax paste, which i used years ago.
I suppose you could use this without first using the Gold Pure Polish and you will get a reasonably shining car.  However, if you want to do the job right, start with the Gold Pure Polish to get the pollution and other crime removed from your finish and the proceed with this glaze.  The glaze is not very thick so be careful squirting it out of the bottle.  This product goes on easily and comes off easily.  Afterwards your vehicle will be shiny, however to go all the way you need to finish the job with the Gold Carnauba Wax.  You need to commit to an entire afternoon to do all three steps.
I have been using this for years, and it is hands down the best quick detailer on the market. Products like Meguiars Ultimate Detailer are more of a spray wax type product rather than a detailer, as they withstand car washes. However, those products cannot be used on fresh paint, and they are a bit harder to apply/remove than the Mothers Showtime (which is safe for fresh paint - confirmed with Mothers). Not to mention it has a great smell, provides a deep shine, and fills in light swirl marks. The 24oz version from Amazon is a great deal, and if you try it, you won't be disappointed. The same goes for any Mothers product, actually.
I have used about every car detailer on the market for my Corvette as it goes to several shows a year. The Mothers brand caught my eye and even though it cost a little more than some of the other brands it is an excellent product. Easy to apply and wipes off with a nice shine. When I arrive at the show site, I take out my spray bottle of Mother'sCalifornia Gold and touch up any places needed so I have a great presentation for viewers.I have never had a poor product from Mothers.This is an update--I was out of this product and stopped at the car parts store and they were out of stock so I purchased a substitute which did an excellent job however I paid almost 80% more for the substitute product and the Mother's Detailer was equal to the higher priced product. I still think this is the best buy for detailer on the market.
I have been using "instant detailers"for over a decade, mostly the Meguiar's product in the purple spray bottle. It did a good job, smelled nice, and left the car clean.  But as I am always looking for a better shine, I decided to give the Mother's Instant Detailer a try, and I'm glad I did.  Indeed, until I decided to try the Mother's product, I assumed that all "instant detailers" were pretty much alike. Not so!  In my experience, the Mother's product not only cleans the car but it also produces greater shine, depth and gloss. It also seems to brighten the finish as well.  My take: it's a superior product.Mother's Instant Detailer is very mild, it smells great, and makes a noticeable difference in a car's appearance. I no longer use the other brand.Since discovering Mother's Instant Detailer I have tried a number of other Mother's wax products, and found them to be at least a notch or two above the current offerings of the major retail store competitors.  Of course, car detailing goals and results can be very subjective; nonetheless, for the discriminating car enthusiast who wants their car to look its best, do yourself a favor and give this product a try -- I think you'll like it.
I love this stuff! I can't keep my car in a garage, so I use a car cover almost every day of the year. I hate going through the day long meticulous labor of washing, clay baring, and waxing my car more than a couple times a year, so I use this stuff. After washing and clay baring my car, I use the Mother's wax and throw the cover on. Each week I dust the car, and depending on the need I use this spray detailer weekly or bi-weekly. I don't know exactly what's in it, but I assume it's some sort of liquid wax. It really helps to preserve the original wax job and helps it last for months. It also cleans bird droppings, grime, and general filth gently and easily. Using it couldn't be easier. Just spray on, wipe with a microfiber cloth, and dry with another microfiber cloth. One bottle will last me two to three uses on the entire car, depending on how heavy I am with the application. An excellent product all around!
I bought this because a friend told me about it and he was right because the shine is beautiful and it brings out the luster in the paint. Spray it on wipe it off wait and wipe off the hue and the car looks beautiful. If you go to car shows or want your ride to look like show room then buy this stuff,you can even spray it on the glass this stuff is great.
The good news is that this is easy to spray on and wipe off. The spray handle gives a fine mist that covers a good area. The spray wipes off easily. The bad news is that the shine is not much better than if I had just washed it and left it. Maybe it will get better over time as the coating builds up. It also streaks a bit but this is minimized if you use a good microfiber cloth.  It's good stuff but doesn't give me the kind of shine I would get from a regular wax job.
This product comes with Mothers clay bar kit and I've never used it by itself, but while clay barring my car. It's a nice product.
This is great for when the car is essentially clean  but needs a little buffing up! My car is always garaged and gets dusty even though it is in an enclosed environment. SO this is good stuff for when I don't need to actually wash the car.
I like them both, as both are the top end in auto cleaning products. I have a 12 year old Acura and it looks like new as I use this product after washes every 2 weeks. I wax twice a year(April and Oct ober)and touch up after every wash with this detailer. That is all it takes to keep a car looking like new as long as you own it. Takes no more than 15 minutes for the whole car.
I use this for small areas of the auto that gets water spots or dirty.  Excellent for dusting as well, avoids dry dusting that may leave swirls.
I love this stuff.  I don't want to wash my car every 4 days but it gets dusty and birds use my car for target practice while I'm at work.  Just spray my car down and wipe, takes less than 5 minutes and my car looks great.  Perfect item to use between washes.  And I love the smell!  I'll be buying this stuff by the gallons!
I like the other M brand better than Mothers. You have to switch rags constantly with this stuff. Not bad though.
It would have been a five star review. But 409 works better, on cleaning up a bike. Mother just makes the part you use it on look wet, and leaves the dirt beneath. Four stars...
i used it for few months but now shifted to other products as this doesnt provide you much sleek look i m expecting.
Love this stuff, makes your cars shine. Recommended for all who want a nice and easy shine. Very low price for this product.
I've used Mothers product for a long time and have never bee dissatisfied, and this detailing mist is perfect. Although probably not recommended I've used this on a slightly dirty, dirty not dusty, car and it had done a fantastic job. I just have plenty of micro fiber towels and keep changing the surface, finishing off with a dry buff. Our car looks great.
As its name, the instant detailer does it job quickly. I give it 4 stars since it does its job. However, I rather spend money to something else. For car outside, you should use the right product to make the waxing/polishing job last long. For car inside, you use plastic/vinyl protection on your leather/vinyl/plastic and fabric cleaning with good smell to do the job. The product has OK smell but not that great.
I used this with the Mothers Powerball 4Paint and it went on easily, and I could spend the time on every surface giving the polishing I wanted, without wearing out my hands.  I have a white car, so the effect was not as visible as it would be on a darker car, but the smooth feel of the surface afterwards told me it did a great job.  I also used the Step 2 Micro-Polish and Glaze, and Step 3 wax, and the car looks showroom new.  There is enough left in the bottle, after doing my full-size car, for at least another full-size car.  Good value!
Hazes in about 30 seconds and comes off relatively easy. It also gives a mirror like finish. Plus it does a good job of removing hairline scratches and swirl marks.
I recently got the whole Ultimate Wax System and decided to give it a shot.This polish IS A PRE-WAX CLEANER.  It is very mild and will take off old wax and oxidation, but it will NOT remove most swirl marks and scratches. (Consider something else if you're looking to cure these pre-wax!).  This polish would be more beneficial on cars with old wax and/or oxidation.  On newer vehicles, although this is not necessary unless you want to remove any previous wax you might have done, it's still worth using just for a peace of mind kind of thing.  It'll help revitalize the color on oxidized paint and it'll enhance the depth and color of non-oxidized paint.On my car, a Mazda3 in Galaxy Grey Mica, there was no oxidized paint, but after using this polish, it brings out the color a little bit more via the clear coat.  It adds a little more depth and shine, making for a nice pre-wax prep.Worth giving it a shot, whether your car is oxidized or not!
Mothers polish bought back the depth in my shine.  Used all 3 steps to make my car look new again
I had bought other mothers products from amazon and you cant beat the price. Step 3 really shines your car like a boss.
I like Mother's products. They are affordable, and work well when used correctly. The thing about mothers is it is not the best on the market, but as for price, availability, and ease of use any novice to car detailing can make a car look stunning.personal processI wash my car and used a clay bar to before using this product. The clay will remove heavy contaminants and prep the surface to be smooth. It so happens I use the mothers california gold clay bar kit which IMO is the best for the price. The detailer is just ok, the clay is great and so is the premium microfiber towel. The reason why I mentioned all of this is that you need to prep your car before starting to use the 1-2-3 system.So on to the actual review, the step one part they call a pre wax cleaner. If I'm not mistaken it is either a very mild type of car polish and may contain abrasives. Basically it will smooth out your cars surface, and make it shiny from the clear coat surface. I think it did a fair job making it shine and removing surface residue from the clay and detailer. It did an okay job so far with very light swirlmarks. since I am unfamiliar with other polishing compounds that I have been hearing about I will give this product of 3.5 rounded to 4 stars. just because I like it enough for the ease of use/money/amount and ending result. I may change the rating if I like other products I try in the future. but for this price and the amount they give (16oz) this will last me awhile because its 1-2 times a year use. now thats bang for the buck. On my Tc i estimate about 2oz was used for the entire car.
This is step 1 of a 3 step process to get your vehicle as close to show condition as possible.  It is easy to apply and easy to wipe off.  It removes a lot of pollution and other things which dull your finish so you probably will want to launder or even throw away the microfiber towels used to apply and remove this.  After you are done the finish is rather dull so only use this product if you are committed to at least going on to step 2, Polishing Glaze.
AWESOME PRODUCTS.....~!!!!
I really love the quality and scent of this cleaner.
This is one of the necessary evils to keep my vehicles looking good. It is not a lot of fun but it gets all the contaminats off your vehicle so you can polish. Comes with everything you need. Just spray the lubricant on the vehicle and on the clay itself and start rubbing. It is amazing how much comes off even after it has been washed. I normally do a 2 ft x 2 ft section and refold the clay after each section is done to get a clean side. When it becomes pretty bad I use it to clean off my wheels. I've tried both Meguiars and Mothers and I like Mothers a little better.
I used Mothers California Gold Clay Bar to clean my car's paint before using DA polisher.  I washed my car two times and then used Mother's clay bar.  Even after two washes, when I ran my hand on the paint to feel the surface before and after claying I could feel the difference.  After claying the paint was appreciably smoother.The application was very easy - just spray the included solution and slide the bar on the paint, knead the clay when it smudges appear.  The box warns that if the bar is dropped it has to be discarded, so I was mindful of not dropping it and I did not.  It was quite easy to hold and use.The only thing I did not like about this product is that the solution smelled like cinnamon.  I am not a fan of cinnamon and that smell is unpleasant to me.Overall, this is a great product.
This is the first time using a clay bar, very simple.Follow the instructions or look at the many videos on line.Quick and very easy to use and took less than 20 minutes
Very nice kit and amazon has the best price on this (beats walmart by a few dollars). The clay is a little tough to knead but it works nicely on paint and leaves it very smooth. You will probably use most of the showtime detailer so just be ready for that. The towel is nice as well, just some lint here and there. The whole process is time consuming, but it makes waxing your car easier and the shine will last a lot longer.
This is one product that in my opinion is well worth the money. I just finished the hood on my car and the result is great. You can feel the grit and grime on the surface and once you apply this product the surface is as smooth a it can be not to mention how shiney it was. I then applied Mother's wax and now have a surfce better looking that the day the vehicle left the dealership.
I used this on a 1994 Caddy and a 1991 Honda Goldwing and its amazing how slick it gets the surfaces.Of course after I clay barred them I always applied a good polish. Great kit.
I used this on my girlfriends 12 year old Solara, and it really did the job.  Her car was very rough to the touch, and after using this clay bar, it made it much smoother (almost like it had been waxed).  Make sure after using this clay bar to wax your car after.  The car now looks 100x better than it did before.
I enjoyed using this product on my vehicle. Looks and feels much smoother.I spent some time working on the entire car. It took a lot longer than the 30-45 minutes people have been posting.The "Mothers Clay Bar System" did remove most of the debris off of the surface, but it did leave behind dots of tree sap, and some tar that kicked up on the side of my car. (I did work on it extensively attempting to remove everything.) The system worked well for me, just not up to the hype I had read about.I noticed a big difference in drying off my car now. Before a microfiber towel would stick, now it glides!If you want to spend sometime with your car I would recommend it. Don't expect miracles.Hope this reviews helps!Thanks for reading it! :)
I would definitely recommend this to anybody who is looking for a clean finish. It is definitely worth the price and hard work.
Our Jaguar had specs on the entire back end and these clay slabs got them cleaned off. PERFECT!!!!!
It's a good kit for beginners because it has everything you need to get started.  I used this on my six month old Honda.  Since it's still new, there wasn't oxidation or anything like that.  Just normal industrial fallout that left a non-smooth feel when stroking the surface with the back of your hand.  Well, after claying the surface it's like someone finally gave the surface a real bath - baby smooth now.  I also used this on the glass and same effect.
This kit seems like more of a hassle than it was worth. After using one clay bar, my car's finish was indeed smoother, but it looked exactly the same. A few little spots of sap came out here and there, but I honestly think the same thing could've been achieved with Goo Gone and Windex.
Love all Mothers car care products. Use the clay after wash to remove any deposits in the paint, then 3M glaze to bring out the shine, followed by Mothers California Gold wax to protect and seal.  Two to three times a year is all you need.
The clay bar works just fine, this is the first time i try clay bars, but it does work; i dont really like the detailer that much, ive tried turtle wax ice, and the platinum series and those are much better detailers.  with that aside i dont mean to say that this detailer spray wont work, it does, but ive tried better ones like the ones i mentioned above
I couldn't believe my eyes that all the gunk that was stuck to my car disappeared! The Clay Bar System really helped restore my car paint like new. It was shiney and smooth~ I was scared to use this product, but my car really needed it. I'm really happy with the results and I plan to purchase more in the near future.
I've owned a black car for 25 years and keeping it clean and keeping swirls out for the paint is tough. So I bought another black car but this time I searched you tube for car care and found things about &#34;claying&#34; your car. I thought &#34;no way&#34; I'm going to rub a bar of clay on my black car, that would just scratch it to death. Well I was wrong, even after a good cleaning there is still dirt particles in the paint, just do the plastic bag test and you will see. I used the clay bar as instructed and it deep cleaned the surface and in turn I could seal the paint after the claying job. It does an amazing job on cleaning your paint. I have used it to remove scuff marks, bird doo, bugs, about anything that is on your paint.
I have been detailing cars and aircraft for forty years.I have tried almost every thing out there as far as waxes and cleaners go.I'm am a old school Simoniz guy. Yea, lots of work...but it works.I would always use a cleaner first, Dupont worked.I figured it might be time to try something new.So I tried the Mothers clay bar. Did not work well.I tried Meguires Clean and wax and that stuff is great.Tried Klasse, real good stuff.Micro fiber.. the more you spend, the better you get.The clay was a joke.
I've been using this product for years and will state for the record that it really does work. It will not bring back a badly oxidized, neglected paint job. It doesn't work miracles like that, but it really does work if you use on a car that hasn't been allowed to rot or been forgotten. This product works best when used after a thorough wash. Some people use it while washing, but I feel this can have a negative effect as it may help to embed dirt and contaminants instead of allowing the suds to lift and carry them away. Plenty of the included spray detailer must be used or else the clay will stick to the car. I personally don't rub too aggressively, and I don't believe that is necessary. After the clay the residue is wiped away with a microfiber cloth. While you can leave the car as is, it is a really good idea to put on a coat of wax immediately after claying the car. You will be amazed at how smooth and slick the car's paint will be after just claying, and with the wax it'll feel like you greased the surface. The results can be incredible if you are patient and follow the directions. The only thing to remember is that if the clay bar ever falls on the ground it must be thrown away. Trying to use it after that would be akin to taking a sanding block to the car. You can't go wrong with Mother's products.
I love this product and it works great; however, my only problem is that the detail spray is barely enough for a mid-sized sedan. That being said, It works great! I would have given 5 stars if there was twice as much detail spray.
Started detailing autos for local used car lot. Thought I would try this product for first time. The results turned out great. Product was easy to use. The auto dealer called to let me know it was the best detail he had ever seen. I am sold on Mother products and this one especially.
Used on my son's 2006 Scion XA.  Needed BAD!  Did the job as expected!  His car looks new! Thanks for the product!
I use this on My New 2013 KIA RIO and it pulls the Dirt off the Car after I thoroughly wash it. An Amazing product, works like a charm. The spray has a Cinnamon smell to it, its not bad but For people who don't like Cinnamon I feel sorry for you,k But I would use this None the Less.It pulls the contaminates off the car and yes you can hear it, it does help remove tar, bugs can be stubborn but do come off. Make sure you use plenty of spray and don't push hard, you need to glide across the paint.
If you have never used a clay bar on your car, this is going to blow your mind.  It is very easy to use, and only takes a few minutes - but yields the most amazing results.  The clay bar pulls the dirt (after a regular wash) from the paint and leaves a totally smooth mirror-like finish.  I've been using the Mother's version for a few years and each clay bar can last a dozen or so uses before it needs to be replaced - unless you drop it on the ground.  The spray is essentially very light soap water, but it provides all the lube you need.  I usually add this into the three step process after washing and polishing, but before waxing.You will simply not belive the before and after difference you will feel when running your fingers across the paint.Also works great on glass.
My wife parked under a tree that left tiny sap particles all over the car (a 2011 VW Sportwagen). I've tried using mineral spirits which did nothing so I tried this. While it didn't make the car perfect, it made a very noticeable improvement. Had I not dropped one of the bars on the ground and immediately discarded it, I think I could have made an even better improvement. I was careful not to press too hard, but I did use some pressure. As others noted, this did cause some very faints scratches which were easily removed with wax.
Have not used it yet, but wish it did not come with the clay bars...they just look like more work will be required.
This clay pack worked great on my car. I only used half a bar on my car. It took the gunk off the paint. I polished it after.
A friend of mine who drives a beautiful Porsche first told me about this product.  We were standing in my driveway looking at his freshly waxed car - when he said "just feel the car now - it is incredible".  He was right.  The car was glass smooth - and had a luster you normally only see the first day you drive the car off the lot.I bought the full kit, and have not detailed four of my cars with it, and I am a huge fan.  First of all - it is easy to use.  You can easily clean a large car with the brick in 1/2 hour - then apply the wax.  I use a power buffer that really gets the shine up - and then I finish with Mother's Top Coat - which makes the paint like new.The Bar strips off all the old wax and residue - and restores a shine I did not think possible.  I just detailed a seven year old Range Rover, and my wife was shocked that it looked "just like new".  I found that I could get two cars done with each brick - so this kit should do four cars.  Finish with a good quality wax, and I recommend the Top Coat.
This product brings back the depth to an aging vehicle but it is not for the weak in the arm.  It does take hours to claybar your vehicle.  Upside; you can see the difference once you complete the process.
Never did this type of detailing to my cars before and was introduced to it by a friend.After getting the hang of using a clay bar on vehicle it is a truly impressive thing to see as it strips off all the junk our cars seem to accumulate over time and gets off the stuff that harms paint and makes it both LOOK and FEEL horrible!For the money both this kit and the Meguiar's are a great deal and even though it only has 2 clay bars there is plenty  to get the job done on a few cars for sure! You should definetly get a refill bottle of the detail spray since it needs to be applied liberally when doing the clay bar process. Having a gallon jub handy is good to do since you cant let this stuff dry out during the job!Cant say enough about this system of cleaning your car off from all the oxidation and grime that builds up over the years!
This is a great clay bar kit at a good price. It comes with everything you'll need. 2 clay bars should be sufficient if you've never clay bar'd your car before, 1 is enough if you do so periodically (1-2 years). Awesome super smooth finish on your car removes pitted particulate and some swirls, but it does require good amount of elbow grease for great results!The application spray has this nice cinnamon scent to it, but I still don't think that that means it's good for you to keep inhaling it.
I purchased this product a few years back and have used it periodically prior to polishing and waxing my vehicles.  Very easy to use and does an exceptional job cleaning up the paint - the lubricant even smells good!  If you want to do a proper prep job prior to laying down polish and wax/sealant, this is the system that works.
After reading numerous raving reviews here at Amazon.com and at several other sites, and learning that auto clay was safe for clear coat paints because it works through a non-abrasive process, I decided to give it a try -- and boy, was I glad I did!My car was covered with a stubborn deposit of dirt and grime that simply would not come off with a car wash. It seemed that the dirt and grime had gotten lodged in the paint and wouldn't budge no matter how hard I tried washing the car. After every car wash, I would run my fingers through the paint and it would still feel gritty.That was when I learned about Mothers 07240 California Gold Clay Bar Paint Saving System Kit. The results were astounding! After using it, the paint no longer felt gritty but glassy-smooth. The paint was no longer dulled by contaminants and the car looked like it had a new coat of paint! I was immensely pleased with the results.Unlike a lot of car polish or polishing compounds that use abrasion to strip away surface contaminants, auto clay simply picks up surface contaminants and locks them into the clay. The clay looks and feels exactly like plasticine (Play-doh) and it is used along with the included "lubricant" spray (actually, an auto soap that provide lots of suds -- like Meguiar's Gold Class -- will work equally well.)Mind you, car polish still has its place in paint restoration because claying will not remove scratches; only a car polish or a polishing compound (harsher) can do that. And remember, always follow the claying with an application of wax to shield your paint from new contaminants. Also, clay your car every so often and you will keep the paint looking like new!I am giving Mothers 07240 California Gold Clay Bar Paint Saving System Kit my highest recommendation. Go on, try it and see for yourself firsthand the difference it makes in your car paint. It's worth every penny and I'm sure you'll be glad you did!
The clay bar is excellent, works wonders at removing all the little bits of grit and grime and leaving a mirror smooth-to-the-touch finish. The detailer and microfiber cloth are a bonus, however any quick detailer will work just fine for using the clay bar. I used the clay bar for the first time on my brand new Shelby GT500 which had a bit of grime built up from the trip from the factory to the dealer. I love how it felt after I was done. So smooooooth. I will definitely be using it often and will order another one of these in the future when I need to.
I like this kit a lot!It comes with 2 bigs bars of clay, think double the size of the Meguiars kit.A bottle of detail spray and a average quality microfiber cloth.I used autowash soap/water as a lube for the clay, did a great job on my 7 yr old van, I only washed it in 7 yrs....the paint is now smooth as a baby's bum, waxed it....My kids were wondering why the van was sooo slippery smooth and shineyI saved the detail spray to keep my cars looking tip top after washes.Great price here at Amazon, will keep buying it here.
I have not used the kit yet, I'm waiting for summer to come so that I can completely detail my car without worrying that I wasted my time doing so in rainy Oregon. But it looks quite promising and cannot wait to use it.
I bought this produt reading the reviews in amazon.com. The product is very good but did not removed 100% the grains of my car, but it gave a nice look.
DO NOT WAX OR POLISH YOUR CAR WITHOUT DOING THIS FIRST!  I was APPALLED at how much grit my clear coat was holding on to.  Ever walk through tall weeds and get burrs on your jeans?  That's what your clear coat does with dirt, brake dust, and other nasty grime that actually sticks to your car & SOAP & WATER CAN'T WASH OFF!After washing and drying your car, take a small amount of the clay (enough to fit in your palm, knead it so it's warm, and make it flat, about the size of the thickness of a pencil & large enough to fit flat on your palm).  Spray a small amount of the lubricant (that's what that stuff is meant for) and then gently without any pressure slide the clay along where you sprayed.  At first the clay will grab and you can feel it getting caught.  This is the clay actually sticking to the stuff on your paint & as you move the clay back and forth & around, you'll feel it starting to glide with zero interference or effort.  Now, take the clay off the car and look at it.  See the black stuff?  That was IN your clear coat!  Simply fold the clay a couple times and then flatten it back out to the size of your palm again.  And now with your finger, feel where you just clayed, and then move your finger to the next spot you're about to clay.  See?  Repeat until you do your entire car.  Should take maybe an hour at the most.Now it's time to wax/polish your car.  If you have a random orbital polishing system, use it now.  Your clear coat will be smooth as glass, and it's NEVER felt that smooth.Quite honestly, this took a 10 year old (what I felt was well taken care of) paint and made it glass smooth.  Feels like a show car now!
works as intended. tried it today and the paint on my car feels perfectly smooth!  it did not add any scratches either. i used half a clay bar to do a whole care and plenty of fluid left over for at least one more car. its pricey but seem to be worth it, next step cleaner then a few coats of wax.  the cars finish was instantly very clear and perfect looking but this was on a dark silver color before even applying any wax
There are two (2) 50 gram bars in the package but there is enough clays on each bar that I cut them in halves & used the halves without any problem.Water hardness makes a noticeable difference. If you have hard ground water like I do, my advice is to spend the few extra bucks to wash & clay your car in a self car wash where the water is softened or deionized.Other wise you will not reap the full benefit of claying a car as you are just grinding the paint with microscopic mineral deposits.Use water as lubricant, do not leave any soap on the paint & use the suds as lubricant as the chemical in soap will quickly break down the clay bar itself. You will find the clay "disintergrate" after 1-2 car washes if you rely on soap as lubricant.
This product works great by getting out any overspray or adhesives off the clear coat without damaging it. Highly recommended to help get out stubborn light scratches.
You really need to use this product if you want your car or truck to be at its best. I've been using it for the last few years and results are over the top. Your paints surface will be smooth as glass which in turn makes polishing your vehicle so much easier to apply and remove.An awesome product.
This was my first clay bar kit and I have to say it's very effective and easy to use.  The microfiber towel they provide is not the best of quality or else I'd give it 5 stars.  Overall, it's an excellent product and I wouldn't hesitate to purchase again.
You can clearly see the grime that it pulls up from the paint.  Helps bring back you paint from years of abuse.
Firm but easily broken so items can be removed for maintenance . I bought this to mount a trolling motor adapter plate on my boat . Worked well if nuts are properly tourqued everything will remain solid despite vibration and temp changes until purposely removed . Only way to better prepare would be to use safety wire and what a pain drilling things out to do so is .
Having a Harley vibration wreaks havoc on all your fasteners.  Everytime i do any repair i always cllean off the old threadlocker and apply a fresh new amount.  I rare if ever have to tighten down any bolts.
I have used this product for years and it works exactly as it's supposed to. It's not too hard to remove nuts or bolts after using this either, which is nice. I use it as directed in shop manuals and I sometimes put it on fasteners that don't call for it if I feel its necessary for safety.
Threadlocker is pretty difficult to rate.  There are many different manufacturers of Threadlocker and each company produces a variety of different strengths.  This specific product I feels does the job admirably.  I used it on the bolts for my Harley.  Have not noticed and &#34;loose&#34; bolts after applying this product.  Harley's vibrate a lot so this product seems to work.
This company makes the best clear silicone sealer that I've ever used. My mechanic always had some of this Threadlocker with him and used it occasionally. I received my little tube of it from Amazon with the rest of my order -- I have yet to apply it -- but I have seen it used and it works. Another tool box must -- to go along with my magnetic grabber and claw grabber. And you know where I found THOSE. Here.
I frequently use blue threadlocker on my restoration projects. It adds that extra insurance in putting together suspension components and other parts subject to vibration. Easy to disassemble if necessary, unlike the red Threadlocker product. A must for the auto enthusiast's tool box.
On certain fastener applications, where there is vibration and on rubber bushings, this is a must. make sure you are tightening the bolts to ther correct torque specifications.
I bought this to put on all my bolts on my saiga 5.45x39 project every thing holds strong.I recommend this product for any one doing small projects and don't want screws coming apart.
I've always been a fan of Loctite brand threadlocker, but I can honestly say that the Permatex brand works just as well.  Order blue if you still wish to remove the bolt, order red for a permanent lock needing heat to remove.
This isn't my first time using this product, and I keep coming back to it. It works well at holding fasteners in place (make sure there is not grease or other contaminants on it), yet it's still possible to unscrew them with moderate amounts of force.
high temp is correct, although the advise against using for head gasket, this works for what its supposed to be used for, no problems, small enough to use and toss (as it will dry out once opened).
I use it for all required applications. A friend that builds engines for a living uses it everywhere it can be.  I have never had a failure of this product.
The open tube of other brands has a short pot life. I buy this one because I get to use the whole tube no matter how long it takes.The tube also is stronger and you don't end up with a handful of stuff coming out where it is not supposed to.I buy this brand in quantity as I know that down the road when I open a new tube the stuff will be the same as the one I just finished.
This is excellent RTV high temp sealant.  I use it on my shovel head's exhaust gaskets to stop a minor leak, it worked like a charm and has not blown out after 1500 miles.
For any of you who have used this product before, you know what it is.  Otherwise, it's a gasket-maker for your automotive needs.  I just used it to re-seal my rear differential, and it worked great.

Seems to hold up very well in parts of the motor that are constantly exposed to engine oil. I use a thin coat on all gaskets exposed to oil like the oil pan, at the rear main cap parting line, intake corners etc. So far it has always worked very well and I've never experienced a leak from areas I have used it.
This RTV is intended for primary use as engine gasket maker - temperature and oil resistant. But it also works well as general purpose RTV when the near-black (dark gray) color is desirable. Which was true for my application - making gaskets for mounting car speakers in odd sized door application that required custom spacers. Worked great.The dark color is especially troublesome to get off the hands - use disposable gloves during application.This package, a small &#34;squeeze&#34; tube is not easiest for application of a regular bead. It is easier to use the slightly larger, calk-gun sized package, so consider that if the larger quantity is also helpful.
used it on my 1994 f150 2wd for the rear end cover. Sealed it without any issues! Did not seem to work well when i tried to use it on the plastic center cap though
As always, Permatex creates nice products and this is another. I used this to help seal around the knock sensor harness I replaced along with the knock sensors on a newly used 2004 Tahoe Z71. This product was easy to setup and seal helping to avoid more water from getting to the rear knock sensor. Great product and does exactly what you need it to. Best if you wore gloves for easier cleanup! highly recommend!
This Permatex Ultrablack is wonderful stuff, a tough sealant and it does NOT tend to harden in the tube - - it's always ready to use when I take off the cap. Unfortunately, this particular item is ONLY 1/2 OUNCE!!So it's not a good deal for the price. There is no info in the item posting, you have to notice the image and the "0.5oz" on the package (which I didn't). Go for the 3.5 ounce tube, much better deal.5 stars for the product, 2 stars for the incomplete description.
This is THE high temp silicone gasket sealant for stopping leaks or forming a makeshift seal in a pinch if you can't find a gasket.
I bought this because I thought the red permatex I used on my diff was leaking.  Turns out it was a pinion seal leak dripping down.  I've heard good things about all of permatex's products so I don't expect any less from this.For differential covers the red stuff worked fine for me and is a bit cheaper too.
I would recomend this for any DIYr! It's great to have around the garage when you need a gasket on the fly! Remeber, to let the gasket cure for 24 hours!
Works great.  Gaskets... Small leaks... Temp fixes or permanent.  The uses are endless.  It's a liquid rubber that dries into an oil resistant gasket.  What's not to like ?  If you lose the cap, you can even make another one out of the substance.
Used this RTV to create a gasket on an F150 differential cover. Used about 1/3 to 1/2 tube on the diff cover to ensure adequate coverage.  Applied around the bolt holes.  Begins to get tacky in about 5 minutes. Installed diff cover and finger tightened bolts, let set for approx. 1 hour.  Then tightened bolts to OEM specs.  Filled with gear oil and no leaks.
Used this when doing a valve cover gasket replacement.  o2 safe which is good.  No leaks when using this on my BMW gasket.
so this sat around for awhile before i used it and sure enough i go to use it and the top of the UNOPEN tube is hardened and unuse able this is BS and i cant even retuen it
Used this on the front and rear diff covers on my 04 Jeep TJ. Just followed the directions and had no leaks whatsoever. Good product! Always go with Permatex.
I bought this in order to seal some parts of my car's valve cover mating surfaces.The shop I paid for the timing belt service to be done did not do a good job.Valve cover gasket never leaked before, it started leaking after they put a new gasket.Obviously they did not clean the mating surfaces.I did the job myself since I did not trust the mechanics at that particular shop.It does not leak now.This product also helped me repair parts of glass molding (rubber parts around the rear glass) that started cracking, falling off.All in all it is a great product and is worth the money.
I recently rebuilt the engine on my GSXR and I used this instead of the Suzuki sealant recommended for use in the service manual when putting the case back together. This is a great product and worked great for my application. I have not experienced and leaks or problems by using this product. It has held up the the heat from the engine and has kept the oil inside the case.
Works perfectly on engine and transmission oil drain plugs on all cars and most valve gaskets on imports.  I use this stuff any where I can on the engine to prevent leaks happening.
I used this on my 2006 ford f150 spark plugs. This tube has more than enough to do the job. I won't know if it keeps theccarbon build up until I change them again. This is a made in the USA product.
If you leave spark plugs in an aluminum head for 100,000 miles, your spark plugs may break or the threads strip when you try to remove them.  Using anti-seize is supposed to prevent this.  If you use it, torque to the lower end of the tolerance because of the added lubrication from the anti-seize.  I never had spark plugs stuck even without anti-seize so I can't say for certain that it works but it is cheap insurance.  You can use it on any fasteners subject to corrosion.
Really the only good option for high temp engine and exhaust use. Worth the money, will last forever. I use it on exhaust sensor threads and spark plugs with no issue.
I have come to use this on all my spark plugs of all my cars. This is great for aluminum head motors that need special attention to heat expansion and removal. This is a big container so it lasts long and keeps well!
I use this to install spark plugs in my f150. Second time I used and no problems at all. The spark plugs came  out without a hitch and they still show the anti seize in their threads.
I bought this to use on my suppressor threads.  Works great, and a 8oz bottle will last a lifetime as long as it doesn't dry up, or I misplace it.
Used this product for many sparkplug swaps. A little goes a long way, this product has never let me down.
If you are going to change plugs on a 5.5 L ford with the real long plug  buy this prior so you can coat the plugs around the flat for possible an easy removal later
I used it on a recent spark plug install and I guess it will work OK.  Well, it was a little messy going on and I didn't have any trouble with the install.  But, I really won't know how well it works until I remove the plugs - hopefully, years from now.  :-D  So, maybe Amazon will still be around by then and I can give an update when that happens.  Either it works or it don't - we'll see.  :-)
Good price and decent amount for small projects. Would recommend to others and also recommend others to wear gloves when handling this.
Excellent product recommended by everyone. This tube will last a long time. I ordered it to install my spark plugs and they went in with ease.
Cover the plugs in these guys and your car will thank you.  I use them for spark plug applications without any issues. wouldn't install without it
Permatex 81343 Anti-Seize Lubricant, 1 oz. Tube==&#62; great stuff and works really well on my auto work or vehicles.  Thank you very much!
Cant say how it works until/if i ever need to remove the O2 sensor I used it to install.If i ever run out I will buy more.
For occasional use, this is a perfectly-sized tube.  If you need this for a shop, look for larger packages.Does what it needs to do.  Simple to apply, evenly and lightly coat the threads, and works well.
I bought this after reading a tutorial on changing my own spark plugs.  Application was easy but make sure you have a rag to wipe off any that gets on your hands.  It is bright silver.  I guess when I change my spark plugs next time I will see what kind of a difference it makes.  Only time will tell.  Many people swear by the stuff so I will continue to use it.  It works for many other things than spark plugs.
I like anti seize so much I put a little on anything I may need to take off again in the future. (Almost everything)It does what it is suppose to. I'm almost out and will be buying another tube.
Purchased a tube of this for routine spark plug replacement as recommended and, as mentioned in other reviews, only ended up using a small amount. Product seems to be good but won't really know until I remove the spark plugs again. New spark plugs did thread in much smoother than old ones came out but that is to be expected anyway. I will probably start using this on my lug nuts during tire rotations since I have a tube of it now.
Works great and plenty comes in the tube. I have used this anti-seize for years and have had nothing but good results. I apply to treads and when I need to remove whatever I installed, it comes right out. Simple product that works superbly at what it is suppose to do. Would recommend
Works as advertised.
Needed this with a recent sensor purchase.  Wish I had bought three though, since I use it on all my automotive and cycle needs.  Great price.
I have used this on fuel filter threads and it makes life a lot easier when it's time to replace the filter again.If you live in a salty environment where corrosion is a problem then use this product and your nuts and bolts will come apart easy.
this stuff really helps prevent rust on nuts and bolts. i lubed up my brake studs with the permatex anti seize and it lasted through out the whole winter without needing to be re-applied again. i actually apply this on every bolt i have to take out on my car like the struc bolts, tie-rod, axle nut, brake caliper bolts, etc. i dont know how well this would work against exhaust bolts however. the permatex anti seize does say it can tolerate 500 degree F of heat but never had the chance to test that out.
Make sure you use this any time you install new spark plugs - you'll be glad you did, when it comes time to change them again!
I had to put a O2 sensor in my Avalon. The instructions say to put this lube on it so it doesn't seize after it's gotten older. Seems to work like it should so if the part calls for Anti-Seize Lube, then this one works!
This stuff is great for keeping threads lubed up so they are easy to install/remove.  I used some on my new spark plugs and on my battery clamp.  My old plugs were very hard to get out because they didn't have any of this stuff.  Now the battery clamp and plugs will come out very easily.  It does have a strong smell to it.
I'm sure this product will do what it needs to do.  It's difficult for this product to really screw up what it's intended purpose is.  I use it to put on spark plugs and wheel lug nuts so they don't seize up and become impossible to remove.
Any metal craftsman/mechanic always keeps Permatex in his toolbox. If you have ever struggled with a seized bolt/nut, you will appreciate a product that prevents that from happening, as it always happens when you can't spare the time or patience needed to solve it.
I put this on all bolts, car rotor hubs, etc !!! Permatex makes the best lubricants so you cant go wrong. Good price on Amazon.
Put a small dab on my new spark plugs.  Silver color and greasy feel.  Each to put on threads and wipe excess off.  We'll see how they work in 50,000 miles when I go to replace the spark plugs.  This tube will last me forever.
Permatex is the stuff my automotive junkies.  It will allow you to undo what you have done.  You do know that spark plugs come back out don't you?  Make sure the application is correct.  Some metal combinations will prefer nickel over copper based and so on. but for general use, this is the goop for you.
Good product, fair price
This is anti-seize lubricant, as stated.  It appears to be of good quality, and works as it's supposed to.  I guess the real test will be when I go to remove the bolts again, but that won't be for a while.
This is a nice item to have in your tool chest / box. I use it whenever I assemble things which may need to be taken apart again. I even use it on my vehicle wheel lugs, with good results. I recommend this item.
This is a common problem on all these sealers, the caps are horrible and they are basically one time use. The latest trick i have used is putting a clear wrap under the cap to help seal it but even so after time it hardens. The product itself works well and it costs a bit as you can tell compared to non cooper mix.
I used this on a two stroke gas engine head gasket that was blown. I had my doubts, but has been fine for that job.
Product is as described. Good sealant, used it to strengthen the seal around an oil pan heater pad. The truck goes through automatic wash bay weekly and I have not had any issues with seal failure causing water to fry the pad.
Taking a chance on this product. Had to repair a size able hole in one of my pipes. It just has to hold about 10 days until the replacement part arrives. Been about 5 days now so I may make it. Satisfied with this as I didn't expect it would last this long!
all I ever use, AAA+++
Used this for my SV650 when I put on my new Delkevic exhaust. First time around I did not put enough around the pipe and as a result exhaust was leaking out of it. The next time i made sure to put enough on it and let it sit for 24 hours to harden. I have had it on there for 6 months now and have not had any problems at all. Just make sure you read the instructions and don't skimp out on the product.
Purchased this product to remove a minor scratch, it ate through my clearcoat and left me with $400 in damage. Had an auto detailer look at the damage before getting it fixed, he asked what product caused it and I told him &#34;ScratchX 2.0&#34; - he replied &#34;Oh, I would never even use that stuff, it's too abrasive.&#34;Bottom line, from my experience with this product: do not purchase it under any circumstance unless you are very experienced working on cars.This is truly a one star item. Avoid at all costs.
i tried it on a superficial scratch, and kept rubbing the product several times, and reapplied 3 time and scratch is stil there, i tried it with foam pad, microfiber pad, microfiber towel, worst product meguairs produce.
This scratch remover seems to be more of a polish  and lube that will remove the surface scratches for the paint. It does not appear to have any &#34;grinding&#34; type ingredients in the paste.It will have little of no impact on deep scratches or deep nicks in the paint. It is easy to out on and remove and will a decent job for those light scratches. It did not remove any discoloring on my paint such as a stain left by a bird dropping. It ddi make the blemish lighter though.
I have scratches on the hood of my truck. ( Black Paint ) I have tried a few other products without much success. With Meguires, I am making progress. Although a lot of elbow grease is required.
I purchased this product due to the fact that I was (unfortunately) involved in a small collision, where another driver hit my passenger side of my car, backing up. Anyway, there was decent scratches all along both passenger side doors, as well as white marks from the offending vehicle.After cleaning the area lightly, and applying this with the Meguiars Applicator pads (which weren't cheap, but ended up being worth it), many of the scratches which were an eyesore were actually gone. I applied this for around 3 minutes on bad areas, and 1-2 on minor areas, working it in and adding more as I massaged the scratches.This isn't a miracle cure for paint by any means, but it for sure masked many scratches that weren't too deep. Unfortunately, it doesn't last if you wash the car, or even if the car gets wet in a mild rain shower.I would not recommend this product.
Used this on a black Dodge Charger with clear coat and the sparkly paint.It did a good job of removing finger nail marks under the door handles and minor scratches where things were dragged over the back bumper to put them in the trunk.It did not harm the clear coat.I would buy this again.
this product works wonders, proving that meguiars is one of the best commercial use, body and interior detailers. Not too abbrasive, wont leave scratches and serves its purpose very well. I think this is like the concentrated version of their &#34;ultimate compound&#34;.
I had quite a few scratches and scuff marks on my door handles. I had bought this product and tryed it. It was very easy to use. After the treatment of this product on my door handles, I don't seem to notice any more scratches. I am verry immpressed with this product.
I'm quite impressed at how good this product worked.  I have a black car and some careless idiot slammed their white car door into mine, leaving a series of marks.  I bought some Scratch X because it had gotten mainly good reviews and tried it.  The label simply says to rub it on with a terry cloth, let dry, then buff away, if it were only that easy!  For Scratch X to work you need to apply it to a soft cloth (I used an old tshirt) and rub AGAINST the scratch until it (the Scratch X, not the actual scratch!) disappears on the area.  Apply more Scratch X and keep repeating this step until the scratch is nearly gone (it took me about 5 times).  After that, turn the same cloth (in my case a tshirt) over and buff the residue away.  I applied quite a bit of pressure to the area and as you could imagine my arm and wrist became quite tired by the time I was finished, but it was indeed worth it.  I treated another scratch just behind my side view mirror and while applying more Scratch X to the cloth, I actually lost track as to where the scratch was, so I'm pleased with the overall results.
You need patience, but it works great. I have a short attention span and got pissed off after 30 seconds of rubbing it (stupid, I know) and was going to rant about this. Then I calmed down and rubbed a moderately deep scratch for another 2 minutes as hard as I could without damaging the paint. It worked. It wasn't perfect but more than 12 inches away there was no way you could tell. It obviously won't work on scratches where there's no paint left, but if there's the white haze over it, it should work. My method was about half circular motions and half 90 against the grain. If you rub even a little bit in the direction of the scratch, any scratch removing compound is likely to screw you even more.
Meguiar's Scratch X 2.0 seems to do the job on little scratches or when you need to get a little paint off.
removes fine scratches, not anything deep into the paint.  But gets out minor scrapes and scratches.  Put a coat of wax on the area after using this product and it will shine beautifully.
Let me preface by saying if you have deep scratches (catch w/your finger nail) this will help but not do magic.My wonderful mechanic stepped on the bumper of my truck when getting into the engine and it left horrible scratchesfrom his muddy boots. I was sick over it but this cleared it up about 90%.I had another patch on my hood (got truck used so this was already on it) and it looks like someone took a Brillo pad and scrubbed back and forth about 10 times. It was pretty bad and I could almost feel them with my finger nail. The clear coat also appeared to have been removed because in addition to the scratches, the area was very dull (vehicle is dark blue).Well scratch X took about 80% of the damage away and I followed up with meguiars high gloss polish and their carnauba wax. It now looks 95% better and I have to look to see any traces of the scratches and the gloss is back.I did all of this in less than 30 minutes. I also noticed this removed the swirl marks as well.Anyone who rates this stuff poorly is either not doing something right in the application process or is expecting it to do miracles with very deep scratches.ps, I did use a mothers powerball attached to a drill with a combination of hand polishing etc
I ordered this to try to fix a few long scratches in my New Jeep Wrangler Unlimited doors. My girlfriend drove too close to some branches and scratched the whole side of the vehicle. Our Jeep is the dark green and is otherwise scratch free.I gave the Jeep a good wash and dry and set to work. I used a microfiber cloth and work in small circles until I was done. I would tell you that at first I didn't think it was going to work. I had to rub with good pressure for quite a while, and slowly the scratches began to fade. I got to a point where I wasn't seeing much more improvement but couldn't see the scratches unless I caught it at the right angle. I followed this up with a good wax with some Mothers Carnuba Wax and I would tell you it looks at least as good as new now.I would guess from my experience that if the scratches were excessively deep than this would not work so well, but for a light surface scratch that does not penetrate the color layer then there is no doubt that it works great.
I am very hopeful the Meguiar's NAME will make the product a 5 star AFTER I use it.  Hope to avoid getting scratches on my paint until then:)
Bought this due to the impressive adverts. But I was expecting something a little bit stronger. I didn't manage to get the finger nail scratch marks under the handle, but it was definitely lighter. Used Ultimate Compound to remove it instead.
I would have purchased it on Amazon, but I could not wait to try it out. It works better than I thought on light scratches that do not go through the paint but only through the clear-coat. I was able to quickly fix damage caused by rubbing against a metal fence. The side panel looks 97-99% as good as new. As others have mentioned, It takes a lot of elbow grease. Nest time I'll invest in a power polisher. Boy do my arms hurt. But with a power polisher, you have to be careful to not burn the finish. Thank you all Fellow "Amazonians" for the reviews and tips.
Not to remove scratches, but to conceal and and make look presentable. It works well and does what it is supposed to do. Great for light scratches. Harder to use on black cars, but with a little patience it works well.
5-7-13I scratched my vehicle on accident from when I was scraping ice of my windshield and the ice scraper slipped a few times on me.  The scratches were pretty noticeable, so I decided to see if I could find something that would help remove them.  I did some research and discovered Meguiar's Scratch X 2.0.  It had good reviews so I decided that I had nothing to lose.  I was very happy with how many scratches it made disappear.  There was deeper ones that it could not remove but it made all the light scratches disappear.  It also works great as a headlight cleaner if you have some headlights that are yellow from the UV rays.  It made my headlights clear again and look like new.  I would definitely recommend this product to anyone.Edit 6-11-14I was very pleased with this product at first but after a couple of heavy rains I noticed that the scratches are appearing back.  So I am going to take off two stars, but it has performed well with headlight cleaning.  It made the headlights look like new and they are still clear and new looking after a month.  I would still recommend this product but only if you are going to use it as a headlight cleaner.
This is not a rub on, buff off product, like wax.  It takes a lot of rubbing against the scratch.It appears to be doing more harm than good, adding scratches to my fairly dark vehicle.  I'm using it by hand with a foam applicator, which never has scratched my finish when waxing.  I find the results of a good coat of wax do a better job and don't add additional swirlmark scratches like this stuff.  It may work better with a power buffer.  By hand, it's pretty useless.
This product works at least as well as other similary priced scratch removers/hiders....only really effective on very shallow and narrow scratches and swirl marks. I have tried 3 of these specialized scratch products, and none of them hide scratches quite as well as regular Eagle One NanoWax (now discontinued). These products work by filling in the scratch with material that makes the scratch visible only under certain lighting conditions and viewing angles. Meguiars, like most of the others, work better than ordinary wax at hiding very minor scratches, but don't expect miracles.
Doesn't work worth a darn.  Regular wax works better than this product.  Very disappointed with Mequiar which I thought was a good brand.  I will go back to Turtle products from now on.
This stuff is absolutely amazing.  At first, I thought this is snake oil, but with it being Meguiars I figured I would give it a shot.  All I can say is this will pull out a scratch you didn't think would come out.  Now I am not saying I have taken a key and used this product, I am no infomercial salesman, but this product works great to pull scratches out of most finishes.
I've purchased a variety of scratch removing products. Many of them worked well but almost all of them left noticeable swirl scratches, sometimes worse than the original scratch I'm trying to remove, especially on high-gloss black paint and clear-coats. This product works like a charm with minimal swirl/scratch marks (but suggest you try it on an inconspicuous spot first).
I wasn't surprised when I tried the 2.0.  Very effective polish for novice to enthusiast just as how it was with their original ScratchX.For those that aren't getting good results, you are probably not using the product correctly, or your scratch is just too deep.I like that there is no shaking needed.  I just grab the bottle, pour a dab onto my pad, and immediately use.Also the worked in polish easily wipes off the panel.I am very happy with the results.I consider myself a weekend car enthusiast, use professional equipment to detail my cars.
Does what it says it does......looks great !
I use it to keep the clear lexan cover on my squad car light bar maintained.  Makes it look like new and seems to provide a lasting protective finish that is superior to other products that I've tried.  Works well on those "plastic" headlight covers that tend to haze over.  The container tube is good quality and has not cracked and split open like some other brands I've used.  They even put a hole in the base of the tube so you can hang it on a nail on the garage wall (or on a chain around your neck, I suppose).On paint???  Outstanding!!  I think you'll be pleased.
This product removed several scratches from my car, only two were left. Mainly because they most likely too far into the car. But I also had paint from a cart or another car scrape onto mine, and it removed it completely. I was so excited. But I do wish it went a little further into the paint to remove the deep scratches.
As title says - waste of time, money and calories. I have 08 BMW 335i Sport. Silver color. Have long scratches similar to those that guy posted in product images. Spent almost an hour, tried all different techniques. This product simply doesn't work. If you have a new car with nice paint, I would avoid buying this. It might work for some old cars which paint is in different condition, but not for me - sorry.P.S: I bought a full set of Meguiar's paint care, you can find my reviews on other products as well. What actually worked for me (somewhat) is Ultimate Wax and Clay Kit (contaminant removal kit), Clay Kit is very hard to apply though, but it works.
I closed the garage on my car by accident while backing out.  Not sure what happened but my stupid &#34;smart car&#34; didn't detect the garage door closing and it closed on my trunk!  So much for technology making life easier.  Back to &#34;looking back&#34; instead of depending on sensors and my back-up cam.Any how, the garage door put a huge scratch on my trunk and taillights.  I was able to remove all the surface scratch on my trunk and it looks good as new!The scratch on the chrome molding and taillight was too deep and couldn't be removed.  But I knew that when I got this.  This product is great for those light scratches.Easy to apply and easy to buff out.  I just use a regular cotton towel.  Microfiber towels are too soft.
I just had my car at a car show and used this to touch up several places on the car. The shine the liquid wax gave was compatible with the paste wax already on the car. The Mequiar's products are among the best. I use this ONLY as a touch up as I still prefer the paste wax for a deeper coat and longevity. This is great when you don't want to spend a lot of time or your just need touch ups here and there.
Very easy on and off with an excellent shine when done.  So far has lasted and makes cleaning the car easy.
The key to making this wax stand out is doing the prep work1)Washing2)claying3)Polishing4)WaxingThe wax is best applied on a cool surface.  If you can comfortably lay your hand on the surface of your vehicle for 30 seconds with out burning your good to go.Apply a very thin coat and buff off after about an hour.  You can get about 14 applications or more from this bottle.
very easy to use and provide great protection and shine. I see no reason to use separate polish as I did a comparison and this alone provides same level of shine as using Meguairs #7 polish. Plus this is a wax and provides protection.
While you must have your paint cleaned and prepped, GC liquid wax is no doubt will amplify the gloss even more. Application is easy on and easy off. Just avoid from hitting the plastic trim. Comes even easier with the use of DA. longevity is somewhere around 1-3 months. then you need to re-apply the wax. one bottle could easily cover 10 medium sized cars.
This is great wax! It truly deserves the Gold Class name. I use this after the Meguiar's Ultimate Polish. I also have migrated to a 6 in buffer/polisher. I used to do all of my polishing and waxing by hand, and with the buffer, this turns out great. I have an 89 LeSabre that is Black Sapphire in color. Before using the polish/wax combo, it looked more like a darker blue. Nothing really deep. After polishing and waxing, it now looks like the black in black sapphire. It looks great in the shade, as it should and looks beautiful in the sun. There is a nice deep, glassy color, and I am pleased with the results. The water also beads very nice, too.
I love taking care of my vehicles. I have used many expensive, imported products over the years. However, Meguiar's keeps winning me back with their incredible offerings. They are of high quality, effective, easy to find, and affordable. However, take the affordable off. I'd use their products, if they were 3x the price because I've used products that cost that much and are less effective.Meguiar's Gold Class Liquid Wax is another example of that experience. Meguiar's effectively markets this wax and who doesn't love using something called Gold Class that comes in beautiful packaging?  However, it is not smoke and mirrors.  Inside the bottle is a very good wax that will greatly enhance your paint's finish, while providing all-important protection.For optimum results I strongly encourage you before you apply Gold Class, to clay your car, clean with a paint cleaner (i.e. Deep Crystal Step 1), polish with a pure polish (Deep Crystal Step 2 or #7 Show Car Polish), and then apply this wax. The results are truly remarkable. Again, I have used many waxes to top off my detailing, and Gold Class is one I keep going back to.  It's one of my favorites and one of the best.To maintain your shine, remove loose dirt and contaminants with Quick Detailer, or Ultimate Quick Detailer.Meguiar's keeps delivering the good stuff, and I'm a fan.
My black seven-year old car had very heavy swirl marks after a "detailer" at a car wash removed hard water spots from the paint.  The car looked horrible; it looked worse clean than when it was dirty.  I decided that there was nothing I could do to make it look worse, so, rather than repainting the car, I decided to try to restore my car's paint.  Since I have no experience in using DA polisher or any compounds, I searched the web for the instructions and watched a video (see comments for URL).I washed and clayed the car with Mother's Clay Bar. Then I used Ultra Cut compound with Meguiar's DA polisher and Meguiar's 7006 cutting pad followed by Meguiar's Ultra Finishing Polish using the same DA polisher and Meguiar's 9006 pad.  I saw an impressive reduction in swirl marks and scratches.  The black paint looked almost like a mirror.  I could not remove every single scratch, but the paint looked much better than before and much better than paint on many seven year old cars.After Cutting and Finishing compounds, I applied Meguiar's Mirror Glaze and two coats of Meguiar's NXT was.  It worked very well.  I am extremely happy with the results.A month later I tried Meguiar's Ultimate Compound followed by Glaze and NXT, but I did not see any significant improvement from the earlier results.
This is a top quality product.  It does a really good job of getting a smooth, shiny finish on any car.  I use it with a Porter-Cable buffer, and it is well worth the low price.  I have standardized on Meguiar's products.
I've used this product along with several other Meguiar's car are products and am aware of their quality reputation. Truth be told, I chose this product over the 3m glaze because it was available through Prime and I could get it delivered faster. I prefer 3m products and most likely always will.That aside, this glaze works very well. The glaze has the look of dark mustard. Several thin coats of this glaze provide a deep shine.I've used this glaze on a black colored vehicle and a white one. It almost seems as if the black car was excessively prone to picking up light lines(super thin scratches). This was not as noticeable on the white paint finish.This glaze is a good buy.
I started using meguiar's polish and wax since 1992.  the mirror glaze makes the car looks great if you did it right.  If you use the clay bar before waxing and it will provide great results too.
This product was used on a silver car with paint in good to very good condition (some swirl marks, no chips or sun damage).It did cause the paint to shine more than without it and was enough that it will be in my regular routine.For this I used a clay bar first, then this polish, then three applications of the NXT wax and the car looks great.
I am in love with Meguair's products and this will leave your car looking like its brand new!!  Easy on and easy off!!
I will keep this simple. If you want to have a "Wet Look" paint finish, this can help you achieve that.  This is how I got my 3 year old car looking like a show car.1. Wash you car with Meguiars Car Wash.  Make sure to get all the dirt off.  Dry thoroughly.  I use a super absorbent chamois to speed up the process.  Make sure to do this in the shade.  The car's surface should be cool to the touch.2. Use the Meguiars Claybar. Keep going until your hand glides on top of the paint.  This will give your paint a glass smooth finish.3. Apply Meguiars Paint Cleaner with a Random Orbital Buffer or Meguiars Buffer.  This will remove any stains and very fine swirls.4. Apply this Mirror Glaze with the Random Orbital buffer.  Wipe off and buff using a Microfiber Cloth.5. Apply your choice of Meguiars Waxes with the Orbital buffer.  I personally prefer the Meguiars NXT wax because I dont have to wait long after applying the wax before I can wipe off and buff.6.  Maintain this new finish by using the Mequiars Ultimate Quick Detailer often to clean any dust,tree sap or bird droppings that may land on your car. The Detailer will keep it lookng great and also extend the UV protection.You just need to do this entire process once or twice a year.  Regularly, you just need to wash your car at least once a week.  And you can re-apply Meguiars wax once a month or as often as you like as their waxes do not damage your clear coat.  That is why I only use their products.
It works really well with the two different colored foam pads. Use this compound as a one step and it's great.
Not really impressed with this product. The Meguiar's cleaner/wax product does a much better job. This may be good for some cars, but not mine.
I used this on my dark red mustang and did half the car only. I could not tell any difference. Went back and finished the car and it looked great but it look great before using this so not sure what I was gaining.By reading all the reviews I was expecting a wow factor.Maybe it does better on older cars but my mustang is not new either but in good shape.Also used it on an 09 Focus and again, no difference.Makes me wonder with these clear coats in that these products do not get down to the paint level and sinceclear coats are already glossy, a good polish does little.Not that impressed but will give it 3 stars since most people have good luck with it but my advise is if you havea car with good paint and clear coat, do not expect miracles.
Meguiar's wax is great. I use all their products. And no complaints.
I have been using this polish on my cars for years. Twice a year I polish THEN wax with meguiars high tech yellow wax. It's the polish that shines the car, then the wax protects the polish. Easy to wipe on, easy to remove. The best thing is it does not take long to do and it keep the car looking new.
This polish, paired with the Number 26 wax gives an incredible result.  Highly recommended for a phenomenally deep shine. Serious depth
While I haven't tried this with my rotary, M7 definitely will be on my to buy list. hand application is easy as 123 and abc, just follow the instructions behind the bottle and you are good to go. Applied it with the 'straight-line' application rather than the conventional circular motion.easy on and easy off. Just make sure your paint is clean ie no contiminants or whatsoever.
I used this on a 92 Mercedes 500SL which I had found sitting on a lot. Once this car was mine, I noticed it has some weathered and rough looking areas on the hood, where rain had left deposits. I simply rubbed this on that area, left it over night, and took off that coat. The repeated the process about 3 times. Within 4-5 days, the hood looked like the rest of the car. That is exactly what I bought it for, and it worked perfect.
Ultimate shine for a black car!  I am quickly becoming a little OCD when it comes to my black car.  I am new to personal car detailing but have learned a ton from Meguiar's website and youtube.  I washed my car way too many times at the self serve car wash last winter and swirled the heck out of the paint.  I purchased M9 Swirl remover 2.0 and did the car after washing and claying.  This glaze does  exactly what I expected.  It adds depth and really good shine to the paint.  A few have said you can apply this with a machine but it dries so fast I cant see how that would work.  I used a 3 inch applicator and did one panel at a time. I used a very small amount, maybe a nickel sized drop per panel and little goes a long way.  Its suggested to apply this in straight lines and that seemed to work very well.  It dries very quickly, almost crusting over before you finish applying it.  I buffed it off in the opposite direction of the way it was applied and the luster and shine is really incredible.  I used Meguiar's microfiber towels to remove the glaze.  I didn't notice any improvement in hiding the slight blemishes the car still has but the shine is well worth the extra step.
We use this glaze as a precursor to a wax.  We wash, clay, glaze and wax........then we put on cheap sunglasses and hi-5 each other for a job well done.Buy and use this glaze.  You won't be disappointed.
I bought NXT based on the positive reviews here.  Applied the wax to two cars.  Although NXT makes the paint slippy and shiny, I see no difference between NXT and other synthetic wax products (e.g.  NuFinish).  No surprise at all.  I rather get Nufinish because it is cheaper.
this product is good but not outstanding as Barry Meguiar says not last as long as he says I've used both summer and winter and in 6 weeks lost many of its properties. in the real world, not in the world of Barry Meguiar you have to wax the car every month if you want to protect your car. is not true that regardless of price waxes last for many months.since you apply the wax starts to degrade the environment, sun. uv, rain, dust. when you wash you remove the wax inevitably part because dust and pollution and the polluters and stick to the wax and when you remove these contaminants also remove the wax.
Like the shine so far, will see how long it lasts, one week so far and water is still beading off the car
Product is easy on/off. Provides a decent length of protection and a great shine. I use this product as my base coat of wax and layer finer waxes on top. Also, the included foam applicator is great. I actually use that applicator with more expensive waxes and use foam applicators from other sites with the NXT gen 2.0.
Used this on two cars, one silver and one black.Both were done on a cool day in the garage after a clay bar routine.The silver car was super easy and looked great when finished. It came off even easier and faster than I expected using micro-fiber cloths.The black car took more work and had swirls at first. I hit it with an orbital buffer and the swirls were gone.Highly recommend two applications of this for full coverage. It goes fast enough that two applications are no big deal.
NXT Tech 2.0 was okay, but not great for a synthetic wax containing no carnauba. It didn't really last long in terms of water beading after a few washes/rainy weather. I'd recommend picking up some Collinite 845 if you want that deep shine of a carnauba, but the durability of a synthetic that'll last longer than this minus the shiny marketing scheme. For even longer lasting durability (with carnauba), I would recommend Collinite 476.I've always wondered why Collinite never utilized Amazon Prime because it is a great way to find great/proven products. Based on reviews about their products, they rely solely on word of mouth and apparently are one of those brands (Zaino, DoDo Juice, PoorBoys) that just don't market. It seems that in the waxing world, the best products are harder to find.I apologize for ranting about Collinite when this is supposed to be about NXT 2.0, but if you really care about your car, you owe it to yourself to give Collinite a shot and see for yourself.You have the option to disagree with me and ignore my review, but just take a minute to look up Collinite and decide. You'll be glad you did.
Decent wax... my car looks nice but I'm not sure it's worth the high price. Can't really say much more.
My father and I restore cars as a hobby for friends. I got my father hooked on this wax after we got done with a 1928 Ford pick-up. Black paint after a buff still has a dul look to it, great shine but a dul look. This wax makes paint POP. After a few washes the wax still holds to the paint.
I have had 4 Lexus and I have only used Meguire products on them.  My new Lexus is a black 2013 Lexus. This is the best wax to keep a great shine. The car finish is like glass. People remark to me about the shine and want to know what I use. I am a great advertisement for Meguire
I've been using only this car wax for years, it's been the best for me, easy to apply and wipe off, doesn't streak, and lasts long enough in hot weather.  I use it every 3 months, I guess it can be used more often.
Finally used up my first bottle of this after a few years.  The great thing about this wax is that it is easy to remove the dried haze.  You can leave it overnight if want and it still buffs off easily.  Also it does not turn most plastic white if you get some on the plastic but I still avoid it.You don't need to apply much, just enough to cover the surface.  Does not have much polishing action so the paint needs to be clean before starting.  Also I use it on chrome, chromed plastic, etc.
This wax is just okay. It has easy application and removal. The overall result is good; however, I would prefer a good Carnauba wax. A good wax from Meguiar's or Mothers is much less expensive and will last much longer than this product. I agree with many other people that a car wash or two and you need to reapply. Disappointing.
I decided to try this polish after using both Turtle Wax & Mothers on most ofmy previous cars and to date I have had no regrets.Meguiar's NXT Generation Tech Wax 2 is very simple to apply and goes on easilyand also wipes off effortlessly without leaving any white waxy residue; it providesgood protection.It gives a clean bright, deep, long-lasting, beautiful shine to my black 2011 Nissan Tiida;in addition it leaves the surface smooth and glossy.
I don't have a major problem with this wax but I don't love it.  I can see the lifespan of the wax coating being short.
I have a black car and have used several different waxes over the years. I find this wax to have wonderful results when used in conjunction with their Ultimate Compound and Ultimate Polish. I did my entire car by hand over a weekend (it took many, many hours) with very good results. I am very pleased with this wax and find it superior to others I have tried.
Nu Finish and this product were listed as the top spots with Nu Finish liquid beating this one out only due to a lower cost and it being their best buy then.  Well I have Nu Finish and I have used it on a lot of cars and there is nothing wrong with it.  I just wanted to try something new.  This stuff goes on with less mess than the Nu Finish, comes off easier IMHO and also I believe it has a better shine.  I did however use a Meguiars polish before putting this wax on and I had never done that before ever using the Nu Finish.  I'll wax with this stuff about once a month and every weekend when I don't use this wax I use theMeguiar's Ultimate Quik Wax
Goes on SUPER easy. Comes off super easy. I used one towel to take it off, and another to shine it up. Worked like a charm. I actually did it in the near dark, trying to beat a rainstorm coming in. (It is fall!) My red Ru (WRX) looks better than when I drove it off the lot 7 years ago.
Car need a good cleanup to shine?  Use this.  I have a black Lexus and when used, its amazing how much of the hairline scratches go away and how deep and glossy the black ends up.  Use their Ultimate Compound first and follow with this.  It will make the shine and depth come out even more.  Looks like it just came out of a paint shop, has that &#34;wet&#34; look.  Impressed.
I bought this wax and also the cheaper Meguiars "Cleaner Wax". I applied both to my car..and I really don't see any shine difference. The one thing great about this wax is that it hides fine scratches well... shine wise...no difference.
I am a car nut. I have garage full of waxes that i have acquired over the years.  This one is my favorite one.  I like this wax and also the spray on version for touch ups.  applies like any other wax but the shine is really nice and seems to last longer that some of the other waxes.
I've owned this wax for some time.  It doesn't last more than a month - if that. It's a pain to put on and take off.  It goes on ok, but taking it off is another story, leaves a almost a oily residue until you wash your car, or use numerous towels/microfiber to take it off.  How much do you really want to rub your paint to get the residue off (I have black paint)?  I haven't really seen any good protection from the elements or from birds/bugs.  One postitive is that it does smell good when applying it but I'm sure Meguiars added the fragrance for some marketing perspective.  All in all, for the price compared to durability - this stuff is a waste and not sure why Meguiars even put it on the market.
My experience is purely anecdotal as I have no real comparison here. I bought some last year. I put it on late summer and it survived the winter pretty well. I put another coat on this spring and it looks great still. I have always used liquid waxes since a typical car wash for me lasts 4 hours (nothing compared to detailing I know), I just run out of steam by the time waxing gets on the table. It is by far the easiest to apply of all the ones I have tried in the past. I will probably pick it up again unless this is the year I finally go DA.
very expensive and like all coatings you have to love to do this stuff to your car - still, this is a quality product from a trusted name although it does require regular reapplication more often than it claims to whether or not your car goes through a car wash or is washed by hand
The benefits of this wax are that it goes on and comes off like butter, and leaves a nice, deep shine.  The problem with it is that it doesn't LAST LONG.  I just waxed my Truck 5 weeks ago and the water isn't beading off anymore.  It only rained once here and while i've done a couple of washes since the wax, my car wash soap (meguiars or mothers) won't strip off any wax.  So while this product looks great, it's only lasted about a month...that isn't gonna cut it.  I'm not waxing my truck 12 times a year.  I've read great things about the newly released Ultimate Liquid wax which has the newest in wax technological advances and has some amazing polymer properties...so I bought 2 bottles of it and will wax sometime in the next couple of weeks.  Per Meguiar's, they say that the ultimate liquid wax will out-last ANY of their other waxes and because of the newest advances in the wax formula itself,...I'm anxious to use it.  Once I do, rest assured i'll be leaving a review for that too.  All in all this tech wax 2.0 is a good wax but just doesn't last long.
This wax is great, I've been a detailer for a couple of years now using other wax's and polish's, and I've recently discovered this product. I mainly use it for my personal car or if I have to quickly wax a black sold car for work, it makes my job easier and I'm really happy with the final results of the product. I would recommend this product both to other professional detailer's, or to someone who would use once to twice a year.
I love taking care of my vehicles.  I have used many expensive, imported products over the years.  However, Meguiar's keeps winning me back with their incredible offerings.  They are of high quality, effective, easy to find, and affordable.  However, take the affordable off.  I'd use their products, if they were 3x the price because I've used products that cost that much and are less effective.Meguiar's NXT Generation Tech Wax 2.0 highlights that experience.  I didn't want to like this wax/sealant as much as ones I paid thirty, forty, or fifty dollars to buy.  However, the results were obvious. On my vehicles, this is the best wax/sealant I have ever used.For optimum results I strongly encourage you before apply NXT 2.0, clay your car, clean with a paint cleaner (i.e. Scratch X or Deep Crystal Step 1), polish with a pure polish (Deep Crystal Step 2 or #7 Show Car Polish), and then apply this wax.  The results are truly remarkable.To maintain your shine, remove loose dirt and contaminants with Quick Exterior Detailer, or Ultimate Exterior Detailer.Meguiar's keeps delivering the good stuff, and I'm a fan.
I tried many expensive wax before even with Perma Plate sole at dealership(dealer will charge $450 for the job) but, NXT generation wax does the same thing at such low price. You can feel the surface just as smooth as PermaPlate. The best of all, if you apply on the trim and rubber part of the car, It will not leave white residue as other product, and gave the car deeper dark (like new) color.
This is an easy to apply excellent wax. It does contain petroleum distillates (not stated on package but I called company to find out) so I cannot get any on the 3M film installed on the nose of my Corvette, a disadvantage for this vehicle. For waxing on paint it does a great job and is very durable on our 4Runner daily driver. I deducted one star because there was no yellow application pad in the package as stated.  Called Meguiars and they are sending me one.7/3 update... Deducted an additional star as no sponge received on timely basis as had been promised by Maguiars.
Meguiars came out with the original NXT around 2005 and it was actually a pretty good product.  Not the greatest shine but was fairly durable and easy to apply.  Then, sometime a few years later, NXT 2.0 was introduced and to me, it was a huge step backwards.  Although it just received a highly favorable rating from the big consumer magazine, it is far from one of the best products on the market.  This version 2.0 has very poor gloss characteristics on dark colored cars and the durability is just terrible, literally no more than six weeks before water stops sheeting off the car.I maintain eight different personal cars and so am almost always waxing something.  I think all the high priced, multi-step products are just so much snake oil being sold at outrageous prices and trust me, I've tried almost all of them.  Good surface prep is the key to the success of any wax/synthetic product and that involves clay, light cut cleaner, polish and then the final way.  Once prepped properly, just about any product will do really well and, if applied regularly, will protect the finish and make future preps unnecessary.  My current favorite for durability and shine is Turtle Wax cleaner/carnuba although the good old Meguiars cleaner was in the purple bottle is still a darn good product at a bargain price.
This product is easy to apply and easy to wipe off.  But, on black cars especially, it does not give a nice deep glossy or "wet look" shine.  It leaves more of a streaky oily finish.I switched over to yellow carnuba wax and the difference was night and day.  I have a full bottle that I no longer use and it's just sitting in the garage collecting dust.If you have a black car, and stick with carunba wax instead of synthetics. Meguiar's to make great products, but this one fails to impress.I get a better shine off of Meguiar's cleaner wax than this NXT stuff.But a friend introduced me to Mothers pure carnuba wax and I have since made a switch in brand.  I mean the shine you get with this stuff is just insane.
I have been a faithful user of Meguiar's products for a long time. I use a vast array of their products on the SUV, truck, convertible, RV, and granite countertops.
You must use mequiars products and pads if you want the best results!!!  I have tried others and they are top notch!!!
I use it for applying polish. Works great. I used it for about 6 uses then it wore out. I suppose I could have gotten another one out of it. The too I think I was pushing on it a little too hard so it would probably last a little longer. I bought more of them. I'm new to using a polisher to wax a car so I'm not really one to rate this but its the best ( and only) one I've ever used.
like stated with the other pads i have bought for my Meguiars DA polisher i get a great shine after using these pads. no complaints what so ever.
Meguiar's makes great products and this is no different. Easy to change the pad and the pad stays in place one it is set. This pad also does not absorb all the wax either. This is a good thing.
I had a couple of cars to detail and I used these pads with my Porter-Cable 7424XP 6-Inch Variable-Speed Polisher and Astro Pneumatic 4607 5&#34; PU Velcro Backing Pad on the car that had a pretty even surface with few scratches and blemishes. I used Meguiar's Ultra Cut Compound 105 (as there were only light marks to remove). Produced a great finish!
There's not too much exciting here, but after using these pads on a couple of cars, I can tell you that they hold up to extended use, don't break apart, and the hook and loop backing works perfectly. You definitely cannot go wrong here.
I was suprised how well and how easy they worked even on an extended van.  It saves wear and tear on the shoulders.
I used this pad with the Porter Cable buffer and Astro Pneumatic 4607 5" PU Velcro Backing Pad to apply Meguiar's Ultra Finishing Polish and it worked great. This pad is easy to clean.
Used these pads with a Ryobi polisher and the Meguiar's Ultimate Compound, Polish and NXT 2.0 wax. Cleaned with some Simple Green and warm water in a bucket and they're good as new.
I have a Porter Cable 7336SP dual action polisher with the backing pad and the Meguiar's 6.5 inch pads fit perfectly and securely. I like these pad very much. I use Meguiar's Ultimate Polish with this pad to remove minor swirls and minor scratches on the clean coat of my car. I place product on the pad, lay it on the car and turn on the polisher so as not to sling product. The Porter Cable 7336 polisher is not the most powerful, so when I first begin polishing, the machine rotates the pad when I don't add much pressure. However, as the product becomes loaded with wet polish, the pad begins to drag and loses its rotation. It helps that the pad is not &#34;so&#34; thick and that the edges are tapered. I've solved the problem by having a second pad to change out to finish the second half of the vehicle. The pads are easy to clean and I let them dry with the Velcro pad facing up. I am pleased with the results.
I highly reccomend this with the Meguiar's DA polisher,  perfect to use with Meguiars Ultimate Polish! But make sure you remove any contaminants from your paint beforehand!
Haven't used it yet because I'm still looking for the interface to hook on my buffer wheel...I bought something for that and I'm still back to &#34;square zero&#34;...you would think that in the marketing of this sort of product the seller would fill in the gaps on the other things you need to hook everything up. Not sure I can use it without buying a totally new buffer (which I really don't want to do, since I just bought one). If you already have a hook and loop wheel on your buffer, this product may be just fine.
After buying the Meguiars DA Polisher and the "frequently bought together deal" including the 6.5" finishing pad and the 6.5" polishing pad I found out directly from Meguiars that they have updated the pads to 7" which include a recess to make centering the polisher's backing pad easier AND have improved the Velcro backing pad adhesive so that the new 7" pads are actually machine washable.  The Velcro pad is attached far more securely.  The older 6.5" pads often lose their Velcro backing due to washing/cleaning.There is no doubt in my mind that the pad material is of high quality on either the new 7.0"  or this older 6.5" pad, it's just that Meguiar's has improved and updated their pads now.  The recess on the back of the pad definitely aids the user in centering the pad, that one feature alone makes buying the 7.0" pad a no-brainer.  Combine that with the improved backing pad adhesive and now we have a slam dunk.Here are the links for the newest and improved pads:SOFTBUFF 2.0 FOAM POLISHING PAD 7 inchMeguiar's W 9207 7" Soft Buff 2.0 Foam Finishing Pad
Great pad and performs as advertised. Easy to put on and take off of the buffer machine.  I highly recommend this work taking excellent car of the paint finish on your car.
Needed to buff a new paint job, and was using the Meguires polishing compound.  Tried some cloth things, and they did not work.  This does work, and does a great job with as little effort as possible.  Much better than trying to do it by hand.
I use these pads for final polishing and sealant application.  Yes, I flat out love these pads.  Oh yeah.After washing and cleaning the paint surface with the proper compound, I follow up with Ultra Cut and sealant, both of which I apply using this pad.  Surface prep listed below:1. Wash with Meguiar's Gold Class Car Wash.2. Clean surface with Ryobi, 6&#34; orbital sander and 6&#34; terry cloth pad combined with Meguiar's &#34;Ultra Cut Compound&#34; or &#34;Medium Cut Cleaner.&#34;3, Polish surface with Ryobi, 6&#34; orbital sander, with Hook-Loop Velcro strips attached to pad and polish with &#34;Ultra Finishing Polish&#34; applied using a 6.5&#34; soft foam polishing pad; the yellow 6.5&#34; foam pad.4. Finish using the yellow, 6.5&#34; soft foam polishing pad.  The Synthetic Sealant goes on very easy and with a micro cloth, comes off equally easy and leaves a very satisfying shine.Warning: due to splatter factor, make sure to smear Ultra Finishing Polish and Synthetic Sealant onto the surface before turning the dual action (DA) buffer on.After taking the time to wash and clean the surface of the paint with Ultra and/or Medium Cut Compound, applying Ultra Finishing Polish and Synthetic Sealant to the paint is pleasure as with this pad, it goes on very nicely.(all compounds, polishes and sealants are removed with clean micro fiber cloths.)In my opinion, for final polish or sealant application, these pads are the bomb.
I use it as second stage of polishing my car using Porter Cable 7424XP. It works great after 2-3 usages. I don't now how long it will last. I will update the review later.
I used this pad with theMeguiar's G110v2 Professional Dual Action Polisherto applyMeguiar's  M-0616 Mirror Glaze Professional Cleaner/Wax. 16 oz. liquidand thenMeguiar's  NXT Generation Tech Wax 2.0 (18-Ounce Liquid).The pad stayed securely on the polisher (hooks and loops system) and followed the car's body fine.  I only had one pad and had to wash it after using Mirror Glaze and before using NXT Wax. I attached the wet pad to the DA polisher and turned it on to spin the water out of the pad. The pad did not fly off.Using the DA Polisher and foam pads allowed me to perform a lot of time and labor consuming tasks in a lot less time if I attempted to do it by hand.I am very satisfied with this pad.
I have been a faithful user of Meguiar's products for a long time.  I use a vast array of their products on the SUV, truck, convertible, RV, and granite countertops.
I cant smile enough when I use this.  If you ever used a cheap pad and then use this one you will never go back!!  Great product for everyone who wants their job done right!
I prefer this pad over the one supplied with my Porter Cablr Polisher.  Its really soft and works into the corners and tight places easily.  This is also my favorite pad of all the Megs pads as its the easiest to work.
bought these for my Meguiars DA polisher. they work like they should. i get a great reflection on my cardinal red truck after using all the pads offered.cant go wrong with meguiars!
I used these pads with my Porter-Cable 7424XP 6-Inch Variable-Speed Polisher and Astro Pneumatic 4607 5&#34; PU Velcro Backing Pad to do a finish polish on my car after doing some cutting. The final feel and shine on the car was amazing.
This thing works great with a mild abrasive compound.  I used it on my Honda Civics, and it shines them right up.
works well and easy to clean. great to get swirls out of my black car. I use it with meguiar's finishing polish.
I purchased this with the cuting pad (Maroon). They both are high quality and seem like they will last a decent amount of use.
I used this pad on my truck and 5th wheel trailer with good success. Because it's so soft it holds a lot of polish and is a little hard to clean. It seems to be better quality than some of the other soft pads I've tried. I hope it can hold up to the hook and loop system taking it off and putting it on. I do recommend this pad. More updates to follow as I use it more times.
I used this with the Porter Cable buffer & Astro Pneumatic 4607 5" PU Velcro Backing Pad to apply Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax and it worked great but I noticed it absorbed a lot of the wax so it wasn't easy to clean. I ended up throwing it away because I couldn't get all of the wax out of it.
This pad works well with my Porter Cable 7424 auto polisher.I used it with wax,polish,and glaze, and it works well with all of them.If I can get a few more uses out of it I will come back and give it 5 stars.
Works great with the 205. Velcro is awesome, swap pads in seconds.easy to clean. totally happy with the shine.
The Meguiar's buffer system takes a lot of getting used to because these pads are hook and loop attachment.  The hook and loop (Velcro) is not very strong, and it is glued to the foam.  This means 2 things...  the pads will fly off and have to be constantly re-centered and reattached while you're working.. and once they get hot the glue lets go and then you need a new pad.  This is very poor design for a buffer system that costs $150 for the tool and $0 per pad.  If you can get past those limitations, you will get a well buffed car.
I'm very happy with this product it works great with a Meguiars wax of your choice (preferably Ultimate Wax due to its forgiveness)
This is a leather spray that does help keep the leather soft and looking nice. It is NOT a heavy duty cleaner thus if your leather is in really poor condition like one of my chair covers, this spray will not do the job. This works well on my auto seats and does give a good shine and soft feeling. I like the product. It is easily applied. Do not apply if the leather is really hot after sitting in the driveway as it gets sticky. I should have known better.
I like Meguiars products , they are good value and this Leather Spray is great . No white residue like the other leather cleaner.
There is not much left to say about this stuff it is the very best product I have ever used. it just made my seats look new and feel so soft.
I really like Meguiar's products. The leather spray here is no different, it works and I also like it too. Will buy again when I need more.
Good day to all This is good for conditioning. But not for cleaning though. I was looking fot this to clean as well. but it failed in that. But it did condition it though. The other Meguiar's have done the job. But tis one slipped a bit. I know I can fine what I am looking for through them though.
I've used Meguiar's products for decades, and I trust the brand. I've used this leather cleaner/conditioner for a few years now on BMW leather, and I've been pleased with the results. For weekly/monthly cleaning it is great. Easy to use and does not leave excessive residue on the leather. Also works great for any leather in the house - such as leather furniture, etc.
This stuff is easy to use, and really works well. Anybody that is a car nut, will use this stuff, and for good reason, it's a great product.
I love the smell but the shine on my leather jacket doesn't last too long.  I would say about 3 days to a week.
This product I'm finding does a nice job on my black leather Ford seats. This is my second bottle. A quick spritz on the seats and a couple on a white microfiber towel and i run over the seats quickly. The dirt appears to be on the towel when I am done and the seats shine nicely. It does not leave any grease feel which is important in a convertible in the summer when dust will stick if there is any type of residue like that left over. I use it once a week after a wash just to keep the appearance up. I'm going to try it on my leather couches inside the house instead of buying the kit that they sold me with the setup which dried out quickly. Meguiars goes on quick and comes off easy. Nice Product!They also sell products that separate these into two separate bottles. So far, I'm not changing. The car is a 2012 and does't need deep deep cleaning, which I imagine the other products are for leather that is older and needs more attention
Does a super job on brass, copper, silver, aluminum, bronze and stainless steel. Polishes most metals to a mirror-like finish. I've been using this polish for many years and would definitely recommend it.
Had I been thinking I would have taken before and after shots of the flute cleaning.  Basically, the flute hadn't been used in over 30 years and sat around becoming dull and oxidized.  Needless to say, after some dabs of Flitz and about 10 or more squares of paper towels, it looks brand new!  The paper towels and my hands were so black with oxidation, it was truly amazing.This stuff has done it all for me and I can easily say it is the best cleaner an polish out there.  Hands down.
I have used Flitz extensively over a 15 year timeframe.  I used to detail corporate aircraft, and we had large panels of polished aluminum on spinners, nacelles, and leading edges of the wings.  Flitz made the job go quick, and it provided one of the longest lasting results.  Today, I still use it on cars for brightwork, and on jewelry, silverware, and a multitude of other uses.  2 pounds lasts me a long time despite frequent use.  Flitz also does a good job restoring plastic headlight lenses.
I ordered this polish to clean up my aluminum wheels as demonstrated on a YouTube video. It did a good job with the wheels but I also tried it on the oxidized headlight lenses of the car as well. I didn't use any powered buffing wheel as I wasn't sure of the effect on the plastic. However, it didn't take too much rubbing to totally restore the clarity of the lenses. I've also used this on brass and it really worked there too. A little bit goes a long way so this tube should last quite a while.
incredible polish! it polishes chrome and silver to make it look like new. i use it on many metal objects and it is especially good on polishing a large silver rope bracelet.
I have used this before and it works great . I use it on my stainless steel sink and it comes out great . It also does a great job on the brass poles on the outside of my building. It lasts longer than other polishes
I used this pad to applyMeguiar's M10532 Ultra Cut CompoundandMeguiar's M20532 Ultra Finishing PolishusingMeguiar's G110v2 Professional Dual Action Polisher.The pad stayed on the polisher (hooks and loops system) and followed contours of my car's body well.  I only had one pad and had to wash it after using Ultra Cut Compound and before using Ultra Finishing Polish.  I attached the wet pad to the DA polisher and turned it on to spin the water out of the pad.  The pad did not fly off.I am very satisfied with this pad.
If you want quality than look no further.  This is an awesome pad with a nice thickness to it. Not like those cheapies that feel thin and are flimsy.
Pad works as described.  I used it along with M105 to remove swirls marks on my black Tundra.  Product dries quickly so work a small section at a time.
bought these for my Meguiars DA polisher. they get swirls out with no problem. use these with some ultimate compound and your swirls are gone!will be buying more soon.
Easy to use and easy to change back and forth between this cutting pad and the polishing pad when I was ready. This pad does not absorb all the wax like other pads I have used.This is the best part of this pad.
I used these pads with my Porter-Cable 7424XP 6-Inch Variable-Speed Polisher and Astro Pneumatic 4607 5&#34; PU Velcro Backing Pad to remove some deeper scratches and blemishes and after a couple of attempts all the scratches were gone - use a quality compound like the Meguiar's Ultra Cut Compound 105/205 and you'll get a great finish!
I just used this pad to remove oxidation of a very large Rv. I used it with McGuires 3 part RV oxidation compound set for fiberglass. It took a med blemished oxidated gelcoat finish and turned it into a mirror finish smooth, no burns or scratches.Oxidation is totally off finish. Its a great pad. Well worth the cost and it really held up enough to do entire 28 ft rv. Good solid foam no junk. Make sure you clean pad as it builds up. I just hold a hand scrub brush on wheel and let in spin on pad. Pad is strong enough to stand up to some good pressure.
This pad takes off the tough stuff.  Use it, then use a 9000-series pad for final buffing.  You'll love the result.
Great product and works well. However the Manufacture as a limitation on the packaging of not for DA (dual action) sander/buffer. I called and they said it only applies to this cutting pad and not the Finishing pad.... With that said I have used the pad with a DA buffer.... They said it will not hold up. I have no problem with it on a Porter-Cable DA.
I used this with the Porter Cable buffer & Astro Pneumatic 4607 5" PU Velcro Backing Pad to apply Meguiar's Ultimate Compound and it worked great on paint that was oxidized and it was easy to clean the pad.
Worked great with the 508, cuts fast had has a great shine. Easy to clean and I love the Velcro.So easy to swap pads. great stuff
I use this with my meguiar's buffer and it cuts the toughest paint oxidation off in about 5 minutes (when used with rubbing compound).
This pad and the yellow polishing pad are perfect. Cell foam material is durable, wash and reuse. This pad worked perfectly on my Home Depot's Ridgid Random Orbital Sander with the hook and loop pad. Don't spend $140+ on a so called "car" random orbital polisher. The Ridgid is basically the same thing...yet only costs $60 and I can use it for home improvement work after my car is done. Meguiar's Scratch X 2.0 also works good with this pad to remove minor scratches and blemishes. Use Ultimate Compound for heavier oxidization.
Used to use the bigger counterparts but now I find these to be much more convenient for getting into tighter spaces and allow for more precision.  Will be buying the softer pads soon l.  I use the red for agressive scratches that wet sanding puts in your auto body.  Works like a charm!  I use it with meguiars ultra cutting compound, follow it up with the 8000 yellow with diamond cut and finish with the 9000 with the m205, can't go wrong
This cutting pad works wonders on removing light swirls, oxidization, minor scratches, etc. but do not use if you are not familiar with the cut/polish system as it's a rather aggressive buffing pad. Works great with Meguiar's Ultimate Compound after a wash & clay bar.
I use it as first stage of polishing my car using Porter Cable 7424XP. It works great after 2-3 usages. I don't now how long it will last. I will update the review later.
I've had a good experience with these ramps. They're easy to line up, wide enough to provide confidence, and they seem plenty strong. They're light enough to be very easy to lift and move around.These ramps are not hollow shells; they have supports on the inside. Because of this, you cannot place one ramp inside the other for storage.It took a few times for me to get used to driving up these ramps.  Let's face it, driving up an incline in your garage is not something you are probably used to.  The second time I did it, my tires hit the raised lip on the ramp (the one designed to stop the wheels) pretty hard.  When it did this, it made a loud noise, and I suffered a moment of terror before I realized that nothing was wrong.I decided it would be much easier to drive up these ramps if I could see what I was doing.  So, I bought a cheap full-length mirror at Target (the kind designed to be mounted on the inside of a bedroom door).  Now when I use these ramps, I set the mirror down on my garage floor lengthwise, leaning against the wall, adjusted so I can see my front driver-side tire the whole time.  This has made it vastly easier to drive up the ramps with confidence--and without killing my transmission. The same trick also makes backing down the ramps easier. It's important to be going extremely slowly at the point when the tires leave the ramps and make first contact with the floor. If you're going too fast, the suspension will bounce, which (depending on the vehicle) could damage something when the underside of the vehicle hits the higher portion of the ramps.
**************ALWAYS CHECK YOUR RAMPS BEFORE EACH USE!!!!!!!!!!I have used these multiple times and have not seen any signs of wear.  Traction going up and down is fine as well.  Only thing I would have liked is if the first bump was more pronounced like my car set is to let you know you reached the top.  Just a note, the ramp portion cannot be separated like some other models.
I bought this item because my hydraulic jack was leaking and I always had to top it up everytime I wanted to use it, which alone can take me 15 to 20mins to do.  With this, I just drive up and in a matter of about 2 mins I'm ready to work on my car.  It makes my DIY fluid changes and inspections MUCH easier and quicker.I have a 2005 Mazda 3, and I have absolutely no problems with it sliding, moving, or touching when I drive up on it.Although my car is not even half the weight of the 8000lb capacity model, I bought the 12000lb version just to be on the safe side.I've had this product for just under a year, and I use it every 4 - 5 weeks.  I highly recommend it if you like to save money and do your own oil changes.
bought this for my CRV originally. now still works with my Honda Pilot. has lasted 5+ years and still going strong. holds the front weight of the car easily. just line it up right and drive slowly up the ramp. it can take a beating and is very hard plastic.i can change my own oil now easily and for dirt cheap yet high quality.extremely satisfied. would highly recommend. (if you are tight on a budget just park half on a curb and it should give enough space underneath, but this lets you do it in your own garage in a much nicer fashion)ADDITIONAL ITEMS TO HAVE WHEN CHANGING OIL:- a couple jack stands (i always use this as a backup as never good to have a car fall on you)- 4 tire chocks to prevent rear tires from moving by accident (always use parking brake as well)- socket wrench (walmart extendable one is solid)- oil and oil filter- gloves and lots of newspaper to prevent oil messes (definitely will be some)- oil pan (walmart has a solid large one. the bigger the better. should have built in spout)- about 1 hr of time... drive it around a bit first to warm up oil so it flows faster, careful as it will be hot)- channellock tongue and groove plier in case you need help to remove the oil filter (it is crazy tight initially but doesn't have to be)
Agree with everybody else this is a great polisher.  A bit on the costly size BUT is seems to last forever because you need so little.Not something I use every day but often enough so I always know where it is.  Couple years ago my tube looked empty so I ordered another.  That "empty" one is still going and going.  Just a dab goes and goes.One caviat, use an old T-shirt to polish with and whatever cloth you use do not plan on washing grey to black remains out of the cloth.  No big deal.Bought a gorgous old Navy brass 8" bell with lots of tarnish.  Looked pretty good with the old patena but even better with the bright shine Simicrome put on it.  Been hanging outside long enough to put the patena back, LOL.  Use it to call the birds at feeding time.
Best polish I have found..
The luster I got in five minutes polishing with Simichrome took half an hour of elbow grease using another polisher product.  I was suspicious of their marketing department writing reviews here, but I must say, Wow!  Best of all it only takes a little bit of product to get great results, and yes, it is somehow shinier than everything else I have tried - as if it removes a veil that prevents the metal from showing its best. Two thumbs up!!
I used Simichrome on some golf irons where I used a MAP torch to heat the epoxy. This caused a light heat stain to form on the hosel, which is just surface oxidation. Simichrome removed it, but so did Blue Magic which is less expensive and readily available.I tried Simichrome on my Ducati exhaust, which has turned purple at the cylinder heads. Simichrome didn't even dent the oxidation, which Blue Magic will help reduce. I did notice that Simichrome seems to provide a brighter luster to polished surfaces and even brushed surfaces.Overall: 3/5 stars, expensive, can be hard to find, Blue Magic does the same job mostly. I felt Simichrome provided a shinier finish after an application.
I had heard the lore of Simichrome many years ago from a car enthusiast who raved about it but thought it to be like a unicorn-until I found it on Amazon.  After ordering it and trying it, I agree that this is a fine, maybe the best, metal polish out there.  It smells strong and somewhat offensive, but works like nothing else I have ever seen.  I tried it first on a dull piece of silverware and in minutes, it gleamed.  My cars chrome wheels and fenders and exhaust tips never looked so shiny (feel free to check out the results on my cars in 'Customer Profile images').  Brass buttons on a dress blouse and brass door hardware sparkled.  Simichrome is just awesome.  It is expensive, but a little goes a long way.  Despite all the items I mentioned polishing, I still have ~75% of the tube left.  Just squeeze a little onto a soft cloth, rub on the metal for a minute or two and buff off to a brilliant shine.HINT:  This polish works awesome to restore the lustre on many metals, but be careful when using this on items that are metal plated or made of lower quality metals because Simichrome will buff the metal right off of it.  For an application like that, be extra careful.  That said, it speaks to just how effective this stuff is.
I've had the chance to compare this stuff with Mother's Mag and Aluminum polish and Harley Davidson's Bright Chrome polish. Simichrome comes out on top! Just that simple. It actually shines the metal whereas Mother's might clean some but Simi outshines it.
Yes a bold statement, if you don't need to heavy grit polishing and are looking for a lasting luster and shine then a little of this goes a long way. Have always bought in the tubes as you use so little but to do my '72's alloy's I got this can and it will last beyond that for many years. This is flat out amazing stuff and I use it for jewelry as well.
Used this to polish the cases on my 97 Harley Sportster.  The aluminum cases and chromed accessories were in pretty neglected shape.  I bought this on a recommendation from a friend and it works amazingly well.  Not the cheapest polish but it goes a long way.  I've used it with a Mother's Ball but of course hand polishing works the best.
This polish really does a beautiful job on virtually any metal.I would guess I've been using this polish for over 30 yearsand have found there's pretty much no end to what this polish is good for.It gives a gleaming shine on:Brass ~ silver ~ copper ~ gold ~ chrome ~ aluminum ~ pewter ~ stainless steel ~ and more.It's not good on many painted nor plated surfaces as it may remove paint & plating.I can say from experience that it ruins/removes the gold or silver flashing on china.I use this on so many things that I keep tubes of simichrome in the house & garage for convenience.Plus carry it in both the car & truck as it's proven to be very use-full when antiquing.Especially for checking if an item is Bakelite.The pink polish will turn a yellowish (dark yellow to a canary) if it's Bakelite ~no matter what color of Bakelite your testing.The polish will stay pink if it's not Bakelite.While cleaning our un-hearted garage this past fall I found a particle tube behind a cabinetthat must have been there for over 20 years ~ and it was still fresh & worked like new!Freezing doesn't damage it, I leave it in the garage & autos years around.This polish leaves a protective finish so metals don't darken again as quickly ~while adding a beautiful shine.
If there was ever a product the exceeds expectations, this is it. If you have ANY kind of bare metal and particularly stainless steel this is it. Yes it is labor intensive but the outcome is never in doubt. Its going to shine. Great automotive or household maintenance product.
I've been away from this product for a few years. Iw as trying a wide variety of different polishes. This is still the best. Nothing else is close.
Also had some baked on oil stains on  tti ceramic coated headers on our 70 challenger caused by leaking rear main seal. Once repaired tried semichrome to remove them. No success at all.  Again pulled out the mother's,,,,although slow and tedious, it did the job with no damage to ceramic coating.Screw on lid on mother's makes far better sense.  Semichrome lid requires an inconvenient  pry tool to remove,,,,which tends to clobber lid causing it to not seal well.  Additionally semichrome is somewhat on the order as twice as expensive.  I should have purchased a tube instead of a can to give it a try,,,would have saved 15 or so dollars.
I use this stuff to shine the chrome on my motorcycle. I also like to use it to polish feed ramps on shootin irons.
I polished all the Aluminum on my banshee ATV with this and it worked great. it was easy to use and made all the aluminum come out like chrome without too much elbow grease. Was here fast and did its job great, if you need to get anything polished you can use this and it will come out great.
I have nothing but great things to say about Simichrome. I have quite an arsenal of Detailing supplies (ask the Mrs, She wants to strangle me) Literally a few thousand dollars worth. I have put honest effort into all of the metal polishes I have used in the past and none of them stack up to Simichrome. Flitz metal polish is a distant second. If you can find the old Brasso in the metal can grab it! Its the old formula made prior to the VOC regulation changes and it is amazing. Simichrome paste is pretty damn close to Brasso if not better.
For years I have tried different polishing compounds and I have never found one that works better than mothers aluminum polish until now. The polish comes in a tooth paste like tube, just a little bit of this polish gives a nice clean haze free shine on my motorcycle rims. The polish is easy to go on and easy to wipe off. It is not hash or grainy so no need to worry about hairline scratches.I will purchase again when this batch runs out.
I have been buying this product for several years now, and I love everything about it. The fragrance and how easy it is to place in vents.
Great stuff!  Gets rid of odor takes a little too long to arrive but I knew that when I ordered it.
Really wasn't sure if this would work. Didn't even understand how to use it until I received it. Sat on the shelf until the heater in my Tundra reminded me that I needed something that would remove that musty, moldy odor. This has a long tube that you insert into the vents in the center of the dash. Push the tubing in as far as you can (which is almost all of the tubing's length) and depress the button on the top. I did it both vents but never emptied the can. Then ran the blower. It wasn't until a few days later when the weather was typically that which would make me notice the musty smell but it wasn't there!! Very, very happy with this and even happier that I didn't have to take the truck to a repair shop for a 'flushing' of the venting system. Try it, you'll like it!!
It's been a month and it's pretty much has cleared the musty smell from the ax however the car has never had it done in 10 years until so I think I'll get another one and do it again in a couple of months and see if any left over is there but it does do the job.  Oh and be carefull because other people complain that the hose curls up and goes back out and sprays them in the face.  It didn't happen to me but just in case. You are not so sharp  Ha!!
We fed the line down into the central part of the A/C from the dash side, let it all go, and followed the rest of the instructions.  We did this in spring and it's been fresh since.  Now we're in September there might be a 'hint' of smell coming back after a long hot summer.. so if I have to do this every year., okay.
This is a very comfortable product to eliminate some stubborn odors from your Car Air conditioning system. I was having a very damp mildew odor from my car but was unable to find a good effective solution to that.I got my air conditioning system cleaned,refrigerant vacuumed and refilled but was unable to get rid of that smell completely. However after reading reviews on Amazon,decided to give it a try and yes,it did it well. Will definitely recommend this if you wanted to get rid of unwanted disturbing odors and will suggest to use it periodically to make your ride more pleasant.
This product has to be the best in my opinion, it works on plastics to bring that almost new look back, when car was purchased. Iove this product and will probably purchase again when I run out.
This is the only product that I have ever used on the &#34;Soft-touch&#34; interiors on the 5 VWs and 1 Audi that I have owned. I have never had a problem with peeling and probably never will, as long as I use this to clean the itnerior. Has a pleasant smell and works really well!
I have just used this product for the first time today. I have been using another very popular interior detailer. I used the other detailer just a short time ago and thought the interior was clean. Einszett Premium not only lifted a lot more grime off my vinyl dash and door panels, it is not slick like the other detailer/cleaner. I will be using Einzett from now on.
Works great and has a pleasant citrus smell. But man does the mist burn your eyes. Made my interior look new and dried to a natural low shine. Did not attract dust or stay wet like other products. I will be buying more of this.
Will continue to keep ths stuff in the garage. Cleans great, smells great, leaves no residue behind, and seems to keep dust from attracting to the dash.
I've read rave reviews on this stuff for years, finally ordered some and the reviews are right. great product.Pros- no/low shine. no greasy feel. nice smell, after a while.Cons- strong smell at first but it dissipates quickly.
After reading the reviews on this product, I decided to bite the bullet and pay the high price for cockpit premium. I couldn't wait to get the stuff and start using it and I was excited to see for myself firsthand what the great fragrance was that everyone was &#34;ramping & raving about.Yes, the smell is nice for the whole 5 minutes you smell it. But after that, it dissipates into the air and you no longer can smell it. As far as the cleaning part goes, I'm not impressed with that either.I would not recommend this product to a friend unless it was $5 to $6 bucks cheaper.
This cleaner and protectant works well. The smell is a bit overwhelming but it luckily goes away after a few hours. The results so far are good. Not sure how much better this is vs less expensive products but so far less dust build up. Real test will be in spring and summer.
I like this a lot better than ArmorAll. It smells nice and doesn't leave any residue behind. It's more expensive than other stuff, so I'm not thrilled about that. If it was under $10 I would give it 5 stars.
ArmorAll is great if you're in your teens and want your interior to look like you cleaned it with a can of crisco.  Even their matte products still leave you with a glossy sheen.  When it comes to me and my cars, I tend to look for quality products that I can use over and over again.  I've always found that with einszett products.  From interior to exterior, their products work flawlessly and produce great results.  The additional minty, slightly clinical yet sweet smell is always welcome in my vehicles.  Don't think twice, you won't be disappointed.
Simply the best protectant I've ever tried. No greasy feeling like armor all, no tacky feeling like Meguiar's. The scent is a pleasant &#34;fresh&#34; smell. Does a fairly good job of taking off scuffs and such. It doesn't seem to attract dust, so flat trim looks better longer.A little goes a long way. I find I use about a quarter as much of this as I do the other protectants when doing my interior. Given this, while it isn't cheap, it really ends up costing less over the long term.
Leaps and bounds better then Armour All. No greasy residue. Product only needs 1 application about every 2 weeks for lasting results.
This product is great. I just wish I could find it locally. It cleans so well and doesn't leave a greasy film on anything. I hate that it has alcohol in it but seeing as they make/made factory products for BMW I'm not too concerned.The results are better than anything I used. I even bought some for my Dad!
Actually this took a little modification. I changed the bolts that adjust the height to clip pins to make it quicker to change. However the product works great on my Nissan Frontier.
Better than using one of those kitchen style steps, because it will not slide out from under you when you are making a long reach. I would recommend picking up a pack of rubber bumpers (http://www.amazon.com/Waxman-4215495N-2-Inch-Bumper-Square/dp/B001WAK6E2/ref=pd_sim_indust_3 ) to prevent this from scratching your wheels.
I do like this but you should be aware of the caveats.  It fits on my SUV and truck but is too large for my car wheel wells, and as another reviewer stated, it does not fit on all SUV's and trucks.Pros: It is easy to use, convenient, sturdy when it fits a vehicle.Cons: Time consuming to adjust the step (three positions, but you will likely choose one and leave it; it has 2 thumb screws and painted metal that fits tightly with holes being difficult to line up), the storage bag only fits it if it is left in the shipped position (lowest); it does not fit in the bag if you change the step to a different position. Therefore, if it is changed just leave it out of the bag, or take the time to change it back.If it was designed to change height with push buttons like for the tire width adjustment, and had a bag that fit in all positions it would get more stars. If this is not what you want to work with for a ~$30 investment, maybe a $19 Rubbermaid step-stool from Costco would be better and more easily positioned, like for washing your car where there is no wheel to anchor to. It is really only good in the 2 wheel positions, so it is mainly a window/wiper access and rear roof access device.UPDATE:  After trying to use it on both vehicles I find I do need to change the step position, which on this unit is difficult. So, due to too much hassle, I returned it.Thank you, again, Amazon for your Amazingly easy return policy, again making Amazon online shopping a trustworthy experience.
This is a tough unit and critical to clean the windows of my RV and truck.  I am glad I bought the 'used' one -- couldn't tell it wasn't brand new!  The unit is a little heavy - but that's good for what it does.  I wish I could adjust the angle of the step plate though... right now when mounted it actually is ~10* dropped from level and I would not want to slip off this thing (but the louvers will preclude that from happening I suspect).
I have an old 55 GMC with a Napco 4wd on 37 inches tires and it stands pretty high. Even getting to the oil dip stick is a challenge without a step.That tire step is really great, it unfolds and installs in 2 seconds over the tire. It fits my 37x12.5 (it won't work with a bigger tire) and is pretty stable.It comes with a nice pouch with handles to carry it with you everywhere you go. It folds nicely and can be stored under your seat. A really great item, and I am considering buying a 2nd one so that I can have one on each side when I am working in the engine bay of the truck.
This worked perfectly for my 2003 Ford Excursion.  It fit right over the tire and gave me the extra height I wanted to load bikes on the roof and a car top carrier.  Seems very sturdy and well made.  The bag that comes with it is a nice bonus feature.  I see what others have mentioned though about the adjustable step and folding it up in the bag.  If you place the step in any position except for the lowest, you will not be able to store it in the bag folded.  All that said, it will still fold up in that position and you could easily put a bunge around it and store it that way.
This unit is a new experience in loading and retreiving items from the bed of my pickup. It also makes it easier to was the top of my truck. I would buy it again( that is, if this one ever broke or got lost), which isn't likely ,since it is very durably made.
I tower out at 5'7&#34; which is not considered tall when it comes to working on or retrieving items from the bed of my 4x4 truck. This came in a nice carrying case that stores well behind the front seats in my truck without scratching anything. I have put on the front tire trying out the fit and it will work well .
Very nice item, allows me to reach areas I couldn't prior without a step ladder.Keep it right in the truck, assembles easiliy and takes very little space.
the bag it came with dosent fit it, if youve got it adjusted to the middle or top setting, this does exactley what they say, seems pretty rugged, it fits my duratrac 245/75/16s perfect and holds my 225lb self no prob.
I bought this to get up on the roof of my VW Vanagon to a after market rack.It gave me very little step up and didn't really work as the tire was too small to begin with.I ended up buying a telescopic ladder here at Amazon, those are awesome but spendy.It does allow me to work on my engine on my Chevy 1-ton truck.I would not recommend this item to a friend.
Glad to find this product. Since my 2013 Tundra is so high that I can't even jump up to enter the truck bed.
This little product has its place, but I don't think in its present form that it can replace road flares.  The idea is a good one, and with a little tweaking, the product might be a great item for an emergency road kit.  If they made the flare bigger, larger light emitting head, and light from all sides, I think they would have a winner.  In its current form, it is too small and too lightweight to be of much use.  One would need several, and at almost $10 each, that would be expensive.  I think a couple of them in a glove box might be a good idea, but no replacement for a huge flashlight and some road flares.A good idea but needs work.
I was expecting more from this product, but perhaps I was hoping for too much.  The LED is bright for night or twilight usage, and has a solid or blinking setup, but this is not a day flare.  Keep a traditional flare for daytime emergencies.I do like the light and especially the innovation, but I'll add it to my kit and not just rely on it alone.
This may be something that would be nice to have in your emergency pack, but it is small, toylike and not really functional as a "flare"  The light that is generated is bright in both the flash and continous shine mode, but the light is directional.  It projects basically in one direction as opposed to being a genuine flare style that projects in a 360 degree radius.  For a carry-around for emergency use it would provide some help, but I think there are better flameless flares on the market that would work better.  This is a lower cost item, so you may want to consider that when you make a comparison.  I give it three out of 5 stars but I can't recommend it to anyone who may consider this to be a complete emergency flare solution.
Because of the chemicals used, the old fashioned pyrotechnic flares are hard to find.  You might find a 3 pack at the local auto store or order a 50 pack box from the distributor via truck shipment, but few mail order houses want to deal with the shipping requirements for the flammable goods and oxidizers.Enter the LED flare.  This product has one bright LED that when the button is pressed once, it flashes.  It's bright in one direction, but not nearly as bright as a burning flare.  The magnet is quite powerful - I figured it would be little more than a refrigerator magnet but it grabbed onto my car quite well.As a map light, it's not really usable since maps have colors used and this is monochromatic light.  Also the directional led and lens in front of it form a 1/2" x 3" strip of red light on paper with the second press of the light button.  The 3rd press turns it off.To ensure it's ready to use, I'd recommend storing the batteries externally.  Also remember to gain anyone's attention you'll need to aim it into their eyes.With just one red LED it's not that bright - I've seen much better 12V LED arrays on amazon that are placed into a reflector and spread left, straight on, and right for a much brighter, and wider beam.Because of the dim output, and lack of usability as a map light, plus trying to replace a 15 minute pyrotechnic flare that you can not look at due to the brightness with one red led I am giving the product just 3 stars.  It's pushing a 2 star product.
From the moment you touch the package, you'll begin to wonder if this came from a dollar store. It has that knockoff look and feel that you just don't see in mainstream stores.And once you have the "flare" out of the packaging, you'll probably notice how it's about ready to crack before you even screw on the battery cap. You may even notice (or be disturbed by) the similar look this has to a more adult-oriented item.But hey, the box says it's a super-bright LED that's as good as a flare, right? Well, that's not so true. The dopey LED isn't very bright at all. If this is as bright as a flare, then a MagLite is as bright as the sun. I wrote it off to the crazy no-name AAA batteries and tried some fresh Duracells. Same result.But... but... it says it has a map light, too! Indeed, it does. Hopefully, there's nothing red on your map, because the "map light" is that same dopey red LED -- but not blinking. And really, that's something to give some serious thought to. If it was really that bright, would they suggest you use it as a map light? I think not.If anything, I'd think that using this as a road flare is more likely to confuse drivers than warn them. In fact, the only useful application this has that I can think of, is using the loophole to tie it to your kid on Halloween. That is, if you're angry with your kid and want to shame them with something that's not even as bright as a Glow Stick.Paying more than the cost of a candy bar for this is pure insanity.
This is a little red flashlight, period.  Yes, the red light is bright, and yes, it blinks if you set it to do so.  But this would NEVER take the place of a real flare under any circumstances.DO NOT buy this to replace the flares you should carry in your car emergency kit!!!!Most flashlights have the light beam coming straight out of the end of the tube.  This one has the light coming off the side, like a beacon or lighthouse.  It can ONLY be viewed from straight on!  While a flare puts out intense light in all directions (like a sparkler) this little flashlight only puts out light in one direction - the direction you have faced the beam.  DO NOT BUY, except as a toy, or as a hiking signal light - I have given it two stars for it being at least that useful.Flare?  No way.
I thought this sounded like a handy item to have in my car for emergencies, so when the Amazon Vine program offered it for review, I ordered it.  First of all, it's cheap plastic and made in China.  That alone will usually put me off of buying an item I see in a store.I inserted the included batteries and turned it on.  It emits a red light that can either blink or remain static.  I thought the light seemed small and feeble, but I waited until nighttime to give it a real test.  I set it on my car with the magnetic end holding it to the hood and walked down the driveway to see it from a distance.  Although the red light was visible, it wasn't nearly bright enough to be used as a flare in a roadside emergency.  It wasn't even as bright or eyecatching as the lights you see on bicycle riders at night.I would never rely on this product to warn oncoming cars of a breakdown.  Nobody would know what it was even if they saw it in time to react.  I'm sticking with real flares, which are visible from far away and instantly tell other drivers of an accident or hazard ahead.I hope nobody decides to use this product as a "safety flare" in their cars!  I won't even keep it in my car as a "map light" as they suggest on the package.  I'll rely on the small mag light I already have in the car.
I was enthused when I first saw this product. I strive to keep safety items in the car and house, so this one seemed perfect. A flare that runs on batteries? I could get a bunch of these for my car and for my boyfriend's car, and make sure we're always safe!I popped in the batteries and turned it on. This is a flare? I took it outside. I tried it at night. There NO way a car coming down a highway is going to see that tiny light and know anything is going on. A person relying on this is setting themselves up for a catastrophic disaster. Having a high-powered flare isn't just a casual "nice to have" thing. It can literally be the difference between staying alive and having a sleepy trucker barrel into the car, demolishing it.The light isn't even strong enough to read by in the car. There's nothing I would use this for. And the fact that they market it as a flare safety device concerns me greatly. I worry that someone will fall for that claim, try to use it as a flare, and end up with serious injuries - or worse.I highly recommend that people buy REAL FLARES for their cars and check on them every year or two. Have flashlights. Check the batteries. Safety is important.Definitely do not buy this product.
If you're familiar with the red flashing LED bicycle tailights seen on so many bikes these days, then you'll understand whan I say that this unit is essentially a one-LED version of those lights. Yes, it's visible from a good distance away, but only if you're directly behind it; the lens that focuses the light from the LED concentrates it over perhaps 10 degrees. The base has a magnet it it that will allow it to stand up on the roof of a car, assuming the roof is metal, which is still true for most cars. So as a road flare, it's better than nothing, but still nowhere near as visible as a traditional flare, or just putting on on your car's four-way emergency flashers.So what use it is? It might be useful as a rescue device, for signaling, or locating someone in the woods at night (if they had the presence of mind to bring it along with them). Given the low price, it might be worth experimenting with.
Would be nice if it lighted all the way around, instead of just on one side.  Therefore it can only be seen from one direction. It's not as bright as a regular flare.  I guess it would be better than nothing in an emergency.
There are definitely some advantages to this over a traditional flare. It will last much longer, and it has a magnetic base that is strong enough to hold it on a metal part of your car.  The battery cap screws on and has a gasket in case it is raining. It is also compact and lightweight.The disadvantage is that it isn't anywhere near as bright as a flare. It has a single LED that is very directional. If it was placed on the road in front of a car it would be very easy to overlook.I think a folding triangle with reflective tape along with a couple of flares would be a safer alternative.Sean P. Logue, 2010
Pros: battery driven; flashing or steady light; flameless flare; can be used as a map light; reusable. Could be used effectively as a light that does not seriously degrade night vision.Cons: Product claims to be visible at 1000 ft, but this is only possible within a few degrees of view. One half of the top lights up for a dim presentation, but the bright LED shines out through a narrow beam like a small red flashlight. Consequently, the flare would probably not be useful in a traffic situation since it would have to be precisely aligned with oncoming traffic and would only be visible by the few drivers within this narrow beam of light. It is certainly not a good substitute for a real flare which is much brighter and omnidirectional. This little light is not as good as the emergency flashers built into vehicles.If you want a safety flare to carry in your vehicle, buy the real thing. If you want a light you can use as a map light without distracting a driver, or to see where you're walking without seriously degrading your night vision, this red light will do that well.
Haven't tried it yet since I purchased it for an emergency. But it seems good. I will let everyone know once I actually use it.
I measured it at 500 feet in the dark.  It is clearly visable.  But headlights will wash it out as some point as a car approaches it.  And if there are lights beyond your vehicle it may get lost.  However, it is inexpensive and certainly better than leaving your emergency blinkers on if you are going to be away for long enough for them to drain your battery.  I wouldn't buy just one per vehicle.  I'd buy several.  The magnetic feature is very handy.  But the key is getting your vehicle off the road as far as possible so emergency lighting is not as important.  If you can't I'd use emegegency flashers and get back to your vehicle ASAP.  And forget about using this during the day.  You can't see it from far enough away to avoid an accident.
I ordered this to help make a better fit for the bike rack on the front of a Ford Expedition. I was specifically hunting for a fairly short extension because I wanted the bikes to stick out no further than necessary. The selection of holes in this extension allowed me to adjust the fit into the receiver, as well as the fit of the bike rack into the extension. This allowed me to fit the bikes about 2 inches closer to the vehicle than any other extension I was able to find. Very pleased with its performance.
I'm going to give this extension 4 stars because it was beefy and didn't rattle when I attached it to my Wrangler.  However, I returned it for a refund after finding out that Yakima does not want you to use a hitch extension with their racks.  As a matter of fact, no bike carriers do.  Knocked off 1 star because the place selling the hitch says you can use it for a bike rack.
I wish it came with a locking pin instead of the bolt, but other than that, this is a good solution for mounting my bike on the back of my Jeep with an oversized spare.
I have had this item on my jeep for just about 2 years now.  I need it because of the 35 inch tire on my tailgate covers access to the normal hitch area.  It has been used to haul many items and has worked flawlessly.  ( trailer 5x10, boat, 16ft, and a cargo cart with 300lbs in it )  It has zero rust on it and I am very impressed with it over all.  Also noted that I do a lot of 4x4ing with my jeep and have dropped the rear end off a few steep drops and this extension caught the weight of the jeep without any sort of damage to it.  A++ in my book!
Works as advertised! Heavy duty construction. Don't know that I care for the bolt that hold it in place would rather use a locking pin as I do with all of my other hitch devices. But that can probably be remedied if I can get out the threaded insert.
The label on the box clearly says "Not for towing". This is used mainly for bike rack.Easy to install and quality is OK. It comes with a bolt and washer for securing the extension to your vehicle. The bolt and washer work together to prevent hitch extension from wobbling. So, it's like getting both the hitch extension and a wobbling stopper in one good price.In summary, it serves the intended purpose well with the addition of wobbling stopper. Good deal.
First and foremost THIS IS NOT FOR TOWING! This is not the fault of the product, so don't give it a low rating just because you can't misuse it.Installation is as easy as pie. Just remove your trucks (or other vehicle) ball hitch and shove this extension in. Then hook up your bike rack as usual and ta-da! All ready to go, no more bike not fitting or rubbing on the back of the spare tire!However I'm a bit suspicious of the quality of the piece. The weld around the two pieces that make up this extension are poorly done (a lot of splatter from whoever/whatever welded it). Yes it isn't holding or towing thousands of pounds, but I do expect a certain degree of quality.An effective product that works as advertised, just a bit concerned on the quality and how long it will hold up to being used and abused... only time will tell.Pros:Priced well for what it does.A simple fix for a very annoying problem (bike not fitting because the spare tire is in the way).Fits any standard hitch.Cons:Iffy weld.Provided bolt isn't stainless, so expect it to rust.
This does what it says it does. It is really heavy and is a bit much to lug around, but overall good.
I added this to my double receiver so as to use my bike rack and cargo hauler at the same time. Without this accessory my cargo hauler was too close to the bikes. This provide the added distance for clearance,
My dad has used Kroil for years but I wasn't able to find this in stores anywhere. Amazon to the rescue! While doing a brake job I had a couple bolts which I was NOT able to move. I tried PB Blaster and got nowhere. I sprayed on the Kroil and first I noticed that even though its thicker in consistency, it penetrates just as well (if not better) than PB blaster. It also bubbles a lot more (which I guess means its having a better chemical reaction.) After about an hour I tried the bolts again and they came loose right away!
You have found the best there is, no more looking - yep, right here - BUY IT!!!!
This penetrating solvent is easy to use and seems to work well.  I've used it to free up several rusted up bolts and such and, after giving it time to work, it has worked every time, so far.  :-)
A friend of mine turned me on to this stuff.  I've not bought anything but Kano products since (well, I think this stuff is all they make).  Spray it (liberally) onto your stuck fastener (over torqued, rusted, salted, dirty, whatever), and just walk away.  Come back in five minutes.  Still stuck?  Spray on some more and come back in an hour.  If it's still stuck (and this has only happened to me once), let it soak overnight.I know with other penetrating oils, I've ended up drilling out my fair share of fasteners.  Since I've been using Kroil, I probably haven't had to drill out a stuck bolt in over a year.  (Smells like flowers, too.  Oily flowers.)  And if you're not the only mechanically oriented person around, either order a bunch, or find a good place to hide the stuff ...
Probably the best penetrating oil out there, but by far, the most expensive. Seafoam cost about half the price of SiliKroil, and is also very good. I would say that the Seafoam brand is a close second.
I USE THIS ALMOST EVERYDAY - ESPECIALLY DURING THESE (15) DEGREE DAYS AND NIGHTS.  THEY WILL TAKE A TOLL ON YOUR BATTERIES.  GOOD PRICE AND FAST DELIVERY.  A+
haven't used mine yet. Just got it everything seems to be working fine looks and good.I purchased this charger cause I have a Ford F 250 Super Duty with a diesel. A friend of mine has this same charger and it works flawlessly and will start this diesel when the batteries are dead.the only time u have a dead battery and need a jump nobody's ever around. So no more calling someone for a jump.
I bought this charger to replace my old one which lasted 18 years and was used at least twice a week in our shop. The new one ways half of what the one did, so I hope it will last as long. This is a great charger, the only thing missing from it, is an automatic shut off, for when the battery is completely charged. But for 1/2 the cost of our old shop charger I Will Take It.  So far so good.
This item was well packaged and arrived intact.  Assembly was pretty easy.  It's a nice looking unit and the quality looks good.  I used it once to start my neighbors car.  Seems to have plenty of power.  It's nice to know that if my battery gets weak at the house at least, I'll be ready.
I bought this in September 2011 on Amazon, and it's still performing flawlessly after more than two years of moderate use.There's already lot's of reviews of this charger, so I'll be brief and to the point.What I like:It's never failed to start a car with a dead battery. Just set it for 200 amps, let it sit for a couple minutes and crank the car up. The cables are generally long enough to accomplish whatever job needs done.What I don't like:Chintzy wheels could be better.Battery tester is basically a joke... it doesn't give an exact voltage and maxes out at 12.7 volts. I'd like to have had an option for timed charge and a sensor that would charge to full capacity and then go to &#34;trickle&#34; mode.I'm giving this charger four stars in spite of its shortcomings because it has worked flawlessly for over two years, and it was reasonably priced when I bought it. I feel comfortable recommending this charger to anyone who need a good battery charger, but would make sure I told them of the weaknesses of this charger.
Fits and looks good. Nothing spectacular, but it helps dress up your license plate.  Happy with the purchase I made.
The main reason I like this style frame is that the license plate goes on top of the frame, no part of the frame obscures anything on the plate.  Most bulkier frames cover about a 1" wide strip at the top and/or bottom of the plate.  In some states this may be illegal, not sure about my state, PA.I have a "vanity" plate, and found most typical frames cover the text at the bottom of the plate.  This frame is only visible around the perimeter of the plate, which gives it a very nice appearance without getting in the way or being gaudy.The only complaint I have is that the chrome will begin to pit and flake after a few years, this is the second frame I purchased.  The first one lasted about 4 years.  However, for the cost, a new frame every few years is still a good deal to improve the look of a plain plate mounted on the car.
THIS IS A STURDY AND INEXPENSIVE LICENSE PLATE HOLDER THAT ALLOWS FOR THE PLATE TO SIT ON THE EDGE OF THE HOLDER BECAUSE OF IT'S DESIGN.  GOOD PRODUCT.
This item shipped defective. Parts not covered with chrome are rusting. This is usually a good product, I have purchased the same product recently and did have any problem. I need to have these two plates replaced.
Texas passed a law that the license plate frame could not obscure any lettering on the license plate.  I wanted some nice chrome frames for our cars and truck and these fit the bill exactly.  The chrome finish is good and through many car washing none of it has peeled or flaked off.  These are nice frames for the price.
Just installed this today. July 23, 2013 on the rear of our 2006 Lincoln Town Car and it looks just right. It's made of chrome plated metal (zinc) not plastic. As received, the chrome finish is fine, but after reading reviews about it deteriorating, I gave it a coat of Simoniz front and back including the mounting tabs before mounting. Hope it will help to retard oxidation. I replaced the UGLY black dealership advertising frame with this one and it looks great. Many cars have only two mounting screw anchors at the top of the plate. Initially with the two screws tightened, the bottom of the plate stuck out. I had to gently bend the license plate very slightly to make it not quite flat so it fit flush with the frame at the bottom and all around. It might also be corrected by adding two SHORT mounting screws and nuts to attach the bottom of the plate to only the frame tabs.The "perimeter" frame mounts BEHIND the license plate hiding the mounting tabs, thereby exposing the entire plate: just the simple narrow chrome frame shows. Also, no grief from fussy police or vehicle inspectors because of an obscured state name, motto, etc. I found very few available perimeter frames and for Amazon's cheap price of this one, if it only lasts a year I'll buy a couple more of them. Will likely buy one or two for our other car as well. I would have given it 5 stars, but for the possible impending corrosion mentioned in several reviews. Mounting screws were not included with the frame.Update 4/5/14 Uh, oh. Downgraded to 2 stars.The nasty snowy, salty winter we had here in NJ took its toll and pitted the chrome frames despite the Simoniz treatment. I plan to order 2 new ones and try clear-coating them on both sides to see if that helps preserve them.
Works great if your state requires a front license plate to be installed on you freakin', brand new car!  Oklahoma is lucky!  Good quality plastic which appears to be of quality that will last the life of the car.  The screws went into the brand new bumper (ouch!) just like butter.  Recommended.
This plate holder is great. It has many wide cutouts to adjust plate position almost infinitely. Used zipties to hold it through the grill of my car to avoid drilling into the bumper and it holds pretty well.
Anything plastic concerns me with durability.  About all I can say is it fits, looks nice, and supports our license plate.  I don't know if it could take much winter graveled road abuse but time will tell and the plate should absorb most of the shock.  Works for now.
This does what I hoped.  Easy to install.  Holds plate well.  I do worry that the plastic will break over time with the temperature changes or with a slight tap from another car.  This has not happened yet though.  I am glad I bought it.
Screws are very soft and are easy to strip and not stainless.Plate is flimsy so think thoroughly about how to secure it best
I tried to get at the local auto parts stores, no on had in stock, thank you amazon, now my front plate and it doesn't rattle any more
My new Focus comes with dealer plate, replacing it with this plus screw cover and there's no ad anymore, I like it.
Okay so i got my truck used, It had a license plate thing on the front, I knew I didn't have screws or anything. I bought this kit,  and it worked! the little small white things you put in the holes that the screws go in, fits perfect and works great!!! Exactly what I needed
Works great and looks great so far. I think if someone really wants to take your plate they can, but this will stop most.
The fasteners are just like, if not better than what you would buy at your local parts store. Seeing if they will last as long as they should, is a matter of time, but, at first impression, I think they will.
This is a very well made as well as thought out product. Come with everything needed for installation. Great bang for the buck.
A bit of a splurge but these little touches make me feel good when I look at my Valkyrie.
I needed to replace my front tag holder and figured that I would like to have something that people just can't come up with a screwdriver and take it off. Granted you can take one look at it and pick up a hollow star key / wrench and take it off but at least it make it a little harder for the drive by plate theft. I gave this 4 starts only because of the construction of the Allen key like wrench which comes with the set. Instead of having the key portion in the short end so that you have the leverage of the long when you tighten the screws down but instead the key portion is in the tip of the long end so that you only have about one inch of tool to tighten the screws with so if they're tight, you'll end up like me with a box end wrench looped over the tool to complete the job. I still recommend this product.
Yey you can buy stainless steel screws at your local hardware store and get your licence plate mounted but when you are thousands of mile from a Lowes or Ace then this is a great option. The screws are of good quality and so are the plastic plugs. I would imagine a similar item at Advance Auto or Auto Zone being a comparative price, and this way you don't pay sales tax and shipping is free.
This is a great little deterrent to thieves stealing your vanity license plates.  I'm happy.  It doesn't fit all cars.  Make sure it fits your car or else it might be too tight!!
This is a great replacement bolt kit for your License plate mounts.  I personally did not need the grommets but the bolts were exactly what i needed.  Only negative is that the key for the bolts should have been grooved on both ends, as the groove is only on the tip of the long end leaving you to struggle with the short end of the key when the bolt gets really tight.  Advise using something like a Ratchet extender on it....
Not much to say, other than to let people know these work on Ford vehicles.I installed them on my Truck and my wife's Escape.  Both vehicles only use 2 screws so I was able to use one package for the 2 vehicles.On my truck I took the extra time to reach behind and put the white plastic "nut" on the end of the screw (on the tip of the screw that stuck through the bumper).  This will make it pretty much impossible to remove the screws without holding onto the nut.(I think the white plastic thing is actually meant as a bushing for larger holes???)For my wife's escape I couldn't reach the back side of the screw without take apart the hatch so I just put the screws in.Like others have said, this isn't "bulletproof" - but it will deter theft.  I could take out the old screws with my pocketknife so anyone walking by could steal the license plate in about 10 seconds time.  This will prevent that type of theft...
Nice fit and Stainless bolts. Nice security feature with the special Torx wrench provided. Won't rust in our harsh NY winters.
This is a great little deterrent to thieves stealing your vanity license plates. I'm happy. It doesn't fit all cars. Make sure it fits your car or else it might be too tight!!
Great product.
Bought them with the cruiser plates and while they did fit the plates they did not fit the wholes on the car. Dont know why. Work fine on the front but not the rear. Also they are security screws, so do not lose the device that comes with them. FYI
These Cruiser Accessories 81330 Locking Fasteners, Import-Stainless are exactly what I needed to mount my plate securely to my truck.  Though I ordered them for my car, it had no plate mount to use them on and I couldn't get up behind the plastic bumper to back up the screws with the locking nuts.  Nuts!
This is a product is made of high quality fasteners and nuts and includes the hex key wrench for installation. Great valuie.
A bit pricey but high quality fasteners with a tamper resistant head. If you have a good local hardware store you may want to try putting one of these together yourself.
A little pricey, should have come with the cruiser plate cover.  Bolted right on my 06 M3, no need for the nuts.
This is great for using with your vanity license plates.  I highly recommend it.  The star shape in the middle is easy to crack into though.  All you have to do is spend 10 bucks at your local Lowe's or Home Depot.  As long as your thief is lazy, you will be fine.
Nice to have something other than a standard flat or Phillips head screw if you have a nice plate frame or even a backup camera mounted over your plates. If your mounting screws go straight into your car rather than taking the lock nuts behind a bracket, these screws will most likely be too big to fit. I just drilled out the plastic pieces that were mounted to my car and then just threaded these in. Ended up with a nice tight fit. Add the little plastic caps for a nice clean look.Cruiser Accessories 82050 Screw Covers, Black
Clean and as described.  No issue with the screws or the nylon nuts.  It appeared the nuts were zinc plated... (?)
With the proper sized pan head machine screws these plastic chrome screw covers fit well.  I've used them for about three years.  In the past year a couple of the caps were lost so I purchased some new sets.
They do cover up the ugly screws but once winter road salts get on them the chrome turns green and will not clean up. I guess the decision is, do you buy new ones every spring?
fell off almost immediately ---  but it was cheap so no big loss...  only someone anal as me would think the small lic plate screws need covering :)
This product is advertised as Chrome and is Plastic, and not worth the time or the money. They are cheap and do not stay together!
These chrome caps would not work on my plate. The license plate screws heads were larger than the plastic rings that hold the caps. I ended up using them on my motorcycle. These caps were less money at my local Harley dealer too. I'd give them a pass next time.
Used these on my ventage auto chrome plate frame.They look nice & fit well. I like them & recommend them.
I have two cars, both of which require the large #14 sheet metal self-tapping screws to mount the plate to the nylon retainers behind the plate (the ones mounted on the car that the screws screw into). Problem is that diameter of the plastic ring that holds the screw covers is too small to take the screw's large diameter head. The maximum screw head diameter that will fit the ring is .435 inch (11 millimeters). Option 1: Replace the nylon retainers on the car, but different cars have different retainers so one must search for new ones that will accept a #12 screw. Option 2: Try to find #14 self-tapping screws with smaller heads. I shopped around for #14 screws with smaller heads to no avail. Option 3: Grind down the screw head's diameter. Option 4 (not good): On one car I used #12 sheet metal screws that have a smaller diameter, but DO fit the rings, and wrapped the threads with tape. This sort of works, but I really can't tighten them down satisfactorily. So I have to check their security now and then. I'm leaving the other car as is for now. Maybe someone has more practical ideas? Sure would like to hear of them. BTW, SEE THE UPDATE BELOW.UPDATE 11/16/13:I think I've found a viable solution to the above problem. I used a #12 sheet metal self-tapping screw, placed a 1/2-inch long piece of ordinary shrink tubing (1/4" i.d.) over the threads towards the pointed end of the screw. Used a heat gun (or you can use a match, BIC lighter or soldering iron) to shrink the tubing which effectively increases the thread diameter to about that of a #14 screw. This allows me to tighten the screw securely and will last much longer than ordinary tape. One more thing: The THICKNESS of the screw head doesn't quite allow the chrome cap to fully snap into place over the nylon ring. The top of the head needs to be filed down a little leaving enough Philips "X" to use the screwdriver.
Cover fits well with their screw. They should've sell it as package. Nonetheless, perfect match and my car is now ad free.
Very clever item that adds a clean look to your license plate frame. Hides the screw heads and gives a finished look to your license plate installation. I plan on keeping some of these on hand. Wish I had thought of this.
I've gotten a few sets of these (4) to cover the heads of my front and rear license plate bolts and I've had mostly good results from these covers. I reviewed a separate kit that came with the bolts and threaded plastic mounts for your bumper but that did not directly talk about the covers (I think, who can remember?). These covers and the clear plastic rings which allow the caps to be held in place are easy to install with the single exception that the holes in the clear plastic rings are almost always a little larger that the diameter of the bolts holding your plate in place. This creates the small problem of a chance to accidently crush the top of the ring as you re-tighten each bolt because the ring will sit low on the bolt threads causing the outer portion of the ring (which allows the cap to &#34;snap&#34; and be held in place) so that it falls under the back of the bolt head. So you'll need to slip the ring over the bolt head and you get near the end of tightening down the bolt. The only other problem I've had with these caps is that one cap in one set (new) split as I was snapping it onto the clear plastic ring. I had extras form an old set so no big deal. I never &#34;lost&#34; one of these caps from it popping off during driving so they're a great cover and they do come in multiple colors depending on what you're looking for. I recommend this product.
A little pricey for something that should have come with the license plate cover, but whatever.  They snap right on the screw posts and stay put pretty well-- I have had them fall off when drying the plate with a towel, just fyi...
I'm pleased with the appearance of these on my nouveau plate cover, but they feel incredibly cheap and I don't expect them to stay on while driving down the road. I understand you need to be able to take them back off, but I feel like they're going to fall off on their own!We'll see how it turns out.
The covers pop off and are worthless.  Don't buy this junk!  Looks great when you install but the covers won't stay on when the car is moving.
I decided to try these out, and I'm glad I did! The black ones look really god in combination with the carbon fiber license plate frame I also got from Amazon -REAL 100% CARBON FIBER LICENSE PLATE FRAME TAG COVER FFSince most plates only use two screws, one set covers front and rear (If you are lucky enough to live where a front plate is required)The white ring mounts like a washer under your mounting screws, and the black cap just snaps over the top. Seems to hold well enough to not fall off, but they pull of easily if you have to get to your screws. Another reviewer mentioned that they trap water in and rusted his mounting hardware. That is good to know. I would suggest going with stainless steel mounting hardware just in case. (Which isn't a bad idea anyway)
This is like the icing on the cake for finishing the plates.  I see a lot of nice cars with ugly dealer plate frames and rusted bolts....why why why??  Just remove the frame, get these caps and hide the ugly screws.  :)Make sure your screw heads are not the hex head as it will not fit inside the caps.  Smaller phillips head machine and tapping screws will fit no problem.
Bought the stainless steel cruiser screws and had no idea how to put them on. The packaging that amazon ship them in did not have proper instructions, so it took a while to figure out. Once it stops raining and Ill put them on they should work perfectly.
I have an auto alarm but the blinking led is in a place that is not noticeable to a potential thief. I put loop tape on the back and placed it on my dash and loaded it with 2 Amazon AAA batteries.  It has two flashing LEDs that alternated and really attracts attention.  Although it does have an on-off switch I left it on 24/7 for a Month and it's still going strong. Much longer than I expected.It is visible in the daytime so long as it's not 'directly' in the sun.Quite happy with this, good product.
I have no idea if this has ever prevented anybody from messing with my car, but it gives me a little extra peace of mind when I park my nice car in a not-so-friendly part of town. I debated on buying a real security system for my car, but the general consensus around my neighborhood is that a car alarm won't even turn a head and an overly sensitive alarm is likely to get your car vandalized from annoyed neighbors. This works great for my car because it hides nicely on the dash and with my window tint you cant see that it's a cheap stand-alone box. The lights however shine brightly enough to be seen through the tint even in the day. I've had the same batteries in it for over a year. I probably only use it a couple hours a month.
This is a cheap piece of junk made in a well-known foreign Asian land known for producing junk. The two lights are NOT LED and do not flash quickly like a real security system. They are dull lights, alternating from one to the other. Don't waste your money or batteries. Anyone will tell its fake. I threw mine in the garbage...wasn't worth sending back.
Although it doesn't look like the real car alarm blinking lights that I have or have seen, it is certainly better than nothing. I purchased one for my nephew along with an inexpensive motion alarm. I highly recommend that you get both for a vechicle that has no alarm. It'd probably be more realistic not to place this device in absolute plain sight. While you want the flashing to be visible, you don't want the would be theives to see that the unit is NOT built into your vehicle. My advice is to get one of these to ward off potential theives, but first you should at least get a wireless motion detector. If you can only afford one or the other, get the real alarm first. The "Wireless Motion Sensor Detector Alarm With 2 REMOTE" by MacTop for $14 + $7 shipping is pretty good. One nice thing is that it also has a red LED light that is always on, even when the alarm is not enabled. That is good for letting people know there is some type of electronic security in the vehicle. Best of luck avoiding the theives.
This product does not seem like much to look at but when used at night,it is very effective and easy to see.I always place mineLED lights in an area of my car that is not to obvious. I would not place on the dashboard but perhaps on the side of my console orin a storage area in the dashboard. It can be a deterrent to car thefts.
I recently purchased this item to use for off road recovery while using the Hi-Lift jack. It's well made, heavy duty and should work just fine!
this is a great compliment to anawesome jack!  I highly recommend having this if you own the jack.  It can be of great use when using the jack is tough due to angles, etc.
bought this to use with my k2500 4x4 suburban as the standard jack no longer works with a lift kit and bigger tires.this is a must have for a hi-lift jack. with the 60" jack it works perfectly. i originally tried it with a 48" and it just wasn't enough due to the loss of about 8" of useable lift due to the chain hanging lower.
This is one other item you need for your Hi-Lift jack. This allows you to lift curved bumpers, or ones without notches in them specifically for this type of jack. Great small accessory that goes well with the jack itself. Heavy duty and will last many years. I did modify this with some rubber to not mar metal finish of my bumpers though. If you have plastic bumpers, don't use this, it will leave marks. A friend of mine did that with my jack and them complained. Like it was the jacks fault he was stupid. This is metal and could scratch if you are trying to lift someone that is softer material. Comes with bolts that look too small but do the job. I added larger ones that are stronger, but the ones that come with it are rated for the correct weight loading. You need this for your jack. Will help with some fence posts of odd shape as well.
I'm a little disappointed in Hi-Lift Jack. Top is 2 piece and welded in the middle. Should have been one piece. They supplied a bolt rather than some sort of quick release pin to attach it. A bolt with a hand tightened nut will vibrate loose during transport. The hook on the bottom could have been a little deeper to grab onto other items other than round bumpers more securely. All in all a good add-on for your Hi-lift jack but it could have been designed a little better.
I have the Hi-Lift jack and felt that this item would be great for an insurance policy if something happened to the jack and I needed to make an emergency repair.  In fact, I purchased two of them just in case, and maybe help out someone without the kit.  I highly recommend, and they will last as long as the jack does if you never need them.
If you own a Hi-Lift, I may suggest to have this repair kit. You don't know when you will have to use it.
i bought this to replace worn out pins and springs on my 20 year old Hi Lift Jack... Jack is still in good working order and will use the fix it kit, as a back up!
I bought this to replace the parts from a jack I've had for 16 years. It had bent/rusted parts from all of the years of use/abuse I put it through.  This kit was drop-in easy and worked perfectly.
The great thing about a Hi-Lift jack is that it will last longer than you. However, at some point you're going to need to replace the climbing pins. If I were buying these separately at the hardware store, I be out $6 tops. Oh well, they work and that's what counts!
Fits on my Hi-Lift jack just fine. Does exactly what it is supposed to do.If you are using it on wheels that are deep make sure the straps are long enough to reach the spoke pattern.
i have a jeep XJ cherokee with about 6" of lift and 33" tires.  I have a 48" hi-lift jack.  I got the smaller one mainly b/c of space as i wanted it to fit under my rear seat in my jeep.  With the 48" i can use my front bumper or my rocker rails as jack points, however it would be pretty difficult to get a tire off the ground unless i maxed out the jack.  This item helps a lot to raise the wheel off the ground and be able to put something underneath the wheel for better traction like a log or rock.  My only small complaint is that there is a nut that holds this onto your hi-lift.  would be better if the nut was a bit longer and that it came with a wing nut instead of a lock nut.  Otherwise the build quality is very good, it has a rubber pad that goes up against the tire.  The hooks are extremely strong and the straps are stitched very very well.
I think it is a must when you own a Hi-Lift and your car have soft (plastic) bumpers.Just one suggestion, please read carefully how to operate this product because if you don't do it you have the risk to break it as happened to one friend last weekend when we went off-road.
I have a 2005 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon with 33&#34; tires that I just bought last year. I drive it around the 'burbs 99.999% of the time, so obviously I need a Hi-Lift X-Treme Jack and accessories to go with it the other 0.001% of the time.For my application, this works great. It's solid and looks cool.
This is a must if you own the Hi-Lift jack.  This makes using the jack so much easier in many cicumstances.  I bought it to go along with my 48" Extreme model for my 2011 Polaris Ranger Crew and unfortunately 9I guess fortunately) I have not had the opportinuty to use this attachment on my own rig but have already had the chance to use it to help others!  I love it!
A very simple concept but someone had to be the first to invent it. I suspect others will soon imitate this.Photos show lifting tires. No doubt it would work fine for that - especially with heavy, over size tires (as shown) or farm equipment tires. But it's good for so much more.A piece of steel under the corner of a small building, set hooks under the steel, and lift the building for re-leveling. Hook it under a mower deck of a riding mower to remove/sharpen blades.You trust your jack, now trust the accessories they provide so you can get the most from it. Be sure to get the base for the jack, better than carrying around a piece of 2x6 and no one will toss it on your camp fire, either.
Great accessory for when you get stuck and need to lift just one wheel to perform a self recovery to get back on the trail/street.
Hi lift lives up to the name still, and at first i was sceptical, the packing was ify and it didnt seem to solid, but regardless had to test it out attached to my jack, and it lifted my jeep no problem.
Bought this to go with my Hi-Lift and it is pretty nifty. Bolts onto the jack and works perfect with the 265/75/16 tires on MT classic lock rims on my Jeep XJ. Very handy and takes up very little space. I haven't abused it much yet so can't say anything about durability but it seems solid and well built to me. Sure beats piling stuff under a bottle jack!
Great addition for my Hi-lift jack. They should have included a quick release pin rather than a bolt to attach it to the jack. The hand tightened bolt vibrated loose and was lost on the first trail ride. Other than that it was well designed and of good quality and of great use the first time out.
i really like this lil thing! it is well made and very useful for a lot of applications! hi lift are making great kit these days just seem to be really over priced........
This product works well. However as some others have said a bolt to hold the thing on the jack isn't really needed and is rather cumbersome to remove and install. A quick pin would have been better. DO YOU HEAR THAT HI-LIFT?
If you have a high lift jack this is a must have.  You know you will need this in the worst of situations and this will provide better floatation in soft soil and sand.
Very heavy duty and should work just as advertised in soft sand, soil, mud, etc. Haven't actually used it yet but fully expect that it will live up to its claims! Hi-Lift is a great company and I will continue to buy their products.
Your Hi Lift jack will not work well for you if you are off-road.  Sand = Nope. Mud = Nope.  Must have a wide base to make the jack work correctly. (I know from experience - ugh)
Product was shipped and received in short order as advertised. Its a thick chunk of plastic that is reinforced with ribbing. Should hold up fairly well in conjunction with the Hi-Lift jack.
I have used this a couple of time with my Hi-Lift Extreme jack.  Fortunately i have not need to use it for anything important but it is build to last.  it is a great compliment to a wonderful product.
i like very thing about this product except the color. it really made jacking up my jeep easier. an when using it in the mud it didnt sinkat all really.
I just got this today, I was amazed the base is perfect for the HI Lift jack, it is a lot bigger than picture shows (12&#34; x 14&#34;) I would highly recommend getting this, it could save your life, or prevent injuries using an unstable jack. &#34;This should come with the jack&#34;. Will last longer than a piece of wood, and is easy to clean.
Why is this better than a piece of lumber? Nobody mistakes it for firewood and tosses it into a camp fire... leaving you with nothing just when you happen to need it.Haven't tried it in mud but have used it on soft sand and softer dirt. Worked great. The load is spread out over an area of almost one square foot. A bit expensive for a piece of plastic but worth it.
I love my Hi-Lift jack and use it frequently, decided to get this to help in mud/sand so the jack doesn't sink.The quality is fantastic.  Very sturdy, thick, fits the base perfectly.  Only thing that sucks is the price -- almost $40 for this is ridiculous
Havent had to use this base but I glad I have on hand for 4 wheeling if you have a hi lift jack you should have this as well
nice jack base... sturdy with a jagged edge for scraping dirt away to get a flat place to set up jack..
The National Seashore requires vehicles carry a piece of plywood to act as a base for a jack.  This base puts plywood to shame.  The jack won't slip off, the base is heavy plastic so it won't rot or break.  And you can't get slivers from it.I got the Off-Road Base so the jack wouldn't sink out of sight in soft ground.
ARB base plate, nice thick plastic, works great.  Essential part of your kit if you carry a Hi-Lift on your truck.
I live in the desert so this farm jack base is a life saver as most often the jack is used in sand. This base is much larger than expected which is good for better weight distribution.
You can use this bad boy as a base for your Wrangler's bottle jack - especially if your lift kit has put the axles a tad out of reach. If you have a Discovery, you will need to Dremel out small notch for the OEM bottle jack.  High Lift jacks are great accessories, but they're not all that safe for changing tires in the field when you think about it.  For that, a bottle jack with a good base and an axle lift point will get you going just fine.
This kit is just ok.  Every piece in the kit is extremely light weight.  If you are a mall crawler and only hit fire roads than this will do fine, if it's much more than that then look at the ARB kits.
The items that came with the kit appear to be of good quality and should be useful on the trail. Seems a bit overpriced for the overall kit. You still need to buy some quality chain to go with the kit. So expect to spend another 50-100 dollars for that.
i used it help pull out another car that i couldnt natch out. it was well worth the money an beat having to call a tow truck
These jacks can be so comically dangerous they could come with an Emergency room discount . They always have been . That is just the nature of them I guess . Not much gets higher , especially for the weight and bulk . Maybe I will work out a bumper mount .
AND IT SAVED MY BUTT, COMBINED WITH A 30FT. STRAP AND THE HILIFT EXTREME I WAS ABLE TO PULL MYSELF OUT OF A GNARLY HOLE I FOUND AT THE BOTTOM OF A SNOWMOBILE TRAIL IN MY JEEP YESTERDAY. WOULD HAVE BEEN EFFED WITHOUT IT.  THE BAG IT COMES IN IS CRAP BUT THE GEAR IS SOLID.
The life of an engine depends on Mobil 1 V-Twin 20W-50 Synthetic Motor Oil for Motorcycles to prevent friction which causes heat.  You can get along without it but you will get along by foot.
You can use this oil in for the engine oil, primary, and transmission in Harley's.  My Streetglide seems to run cooler using this full synthetic compared to the dyno oils.  With Mobil 1 you cant go wrong.  It is a high quality oil and a good price.  A lot cheaper than royal purple.
Bought this oil for my '09 Buell xb12ss Lightning Long which has a V2 Harley engine.Read much about the specs of all the different oils and this one was the best synthetic.[...]
Best price for this item anywhere.  A must have for your bike if you do your own work.  Will purchase again in a few months.
This is the Only oil I use in my Dyna Street Bob since 2008, Engine runs cooler, Shifts Great, Here in Florida as you all know it gets mighty Hot. This is the only Oil I will ever use in my Bikes.
Mobil 1 V-Twin 20W-50I was skeptical about using this oil in my Ducati 696 at first, because the manual had specified 15W-50 and many other riders wanted me to use a 10W-40 instead. Many of them claimed that the 20W-50 was designed for slow revving Harley-Davidsons with true V-Twins instead of the somewhat higher revving L-Twins from Ducati.I had clutch slippage with Rotella T6 5W-40, so I tried the M1 V-Twin 20W-50 because it is the only over the counter synthetic xW-50 JASO MA-compliant oil I can find outside the realm of boutique Motorcycle-specific oils from Motul or Silkolene at nearly double the price.The V-Twin 20W-50 is fairly thick out of the bottle, and my 696's engine starts up with a slow lumbering attitude and sound. I contacted Mobil to make sure they would recommend it, and they stated that the V-Twin 20W-50 was the correct oil to use in my 696. Once on the road, I didn't hear/feel anything wrong. WOT 9000 RPM upshifts were clean and precise. The datalogs I got from my Ducati Data Acquisition did not show any RPM spikes, and I did not hear the cat-like screeches after an upshift.As for the high-revving engine comment earlier, I looked up Buell's 1125 and Aprilia's RSV4 engine oil requirements. They both called for 15W-50, and Amsoil's catalog showed recommendations for 20W-50. The 1125 and RSV4 are by no means low revving engines, they can rev higher than most of Ducati's engines which are already fairly high at 9k-11k RPM.Overall: 5/5 stars, great oil to use if your bike needs 15W-50.
Mobil 1 V-Twin 20W-50 Synthetic Motor Oil for Motorcycle is great synthetic oil for your bike and the price is very competitive.
Bought it for a friend.He was recommended by another as with 19 years of using this oil on his shadow vlx, the engine still didnt need a rebuild.
This is the only oil I've used in my Harley's for many many years.  It does what it's designed to do and it does it very well.  Great stuff.
Bought this for our 2003 BMW R 1150R.Even as a female I understand that Mobil 1 is THE standard for synthetic, and we would never buy another brand for any of our engines.
I recommend this oil to all Harley owners. I have extensively researched what motor oil to run in my 2006 Sportster 883 and decided to go with Mobil 1 V-Twin. This is the same oil weight as the Harley &#34;formula&#34; stuff, only you don't have to go to the dealer to get it. I firmly believe this makes my bike run better and it has been proven to run Harley's cooler. I run my bike hard in the Texas heat and conventional oils would break down and turn black after only ~1,200 miles or so; I won't make that mistake again as I won't have that problem with Mobil 1. I also use this as my primary fluid on the Sporty. Simply drain the primary oil and drop in a quary of Mobil 1 and you're back out riding with superior protection.KEEP IN MIND THAT A CASE OF THESE MAY COST MORE THAN ORDERING INDIVIDUAL BOTTLES SO CHECK BOTH PRICES BEFORE BUYING
I have used Mobil 1 on all my vehicle's for years and after buying a new to me, HD 2010 ultra Limited was pleased to see the they also made the V-twin moil 1 for it. I call them to ask what makes this a better product than the OEM oil that HD sell's and they explained that it is specially formulated to meet or exceed the requirement need with air cooled HD engineers as well as trans and primary case requirements. I believe that they manufacture a superior product and will be only running it on my bike.
20W50 should really protect my bike and I love Mobil 1 oil for my cars, so this worked out fine...price wasn't even that bad
After a few cycles using the HD SYN3 oil, I decided to change my own oil and use this Mobil 1 in the engine.  Having never been satisfied with the "just after the oil change feeling" with SYN3, there was a noticeable improvement in engine smoothness and reduction in engine noise during the next 2,500 miles I kept this oil in the bike.  These are things you notice when you become connected to your bike, as you fellow bikers know.  I have used Mobil 1 since because of this experience and because I can get it from Amazon cheap.  It's probably not as good as AIMSOIL, but it's very good and I'm confident it's doing a great job.
I bought this only to use the pump and it is great. I like it that the pump shows you the air pressure at the same time that you are putting air in the tire.
What can I say, simple & quick flat repair especially for my motorcycle. Rode 2100 miles after pulling a nail out before getting internal patch put on, never ever leaked one pound of air the entire trip with this Slime in it!!  It would have been a long hard push to a safe spot and waiting for a tow truck then finding a MC shop to repair the tire if not for Slime kit. A serious MUST have!
Our BMW came with run-flat tires and no room for a spare.  Those run flats were noisier, wore out faster, and rode rougher than the non-run flat version of the same tire.  They were also much more expensive.  We swapped to those non-run-flat tires but worried about finding a roofing nail or bad pothole in the road one day and regretting it.Thanks to this kit we no longer have to worry.  I've used slime in other cars before an it outperforms fix-a-flat easily.  Its a little harder to put in than the competitor but you can keep this in your car year-round and you couldn't do that with an aerosol can.This kit can help provide peace of mind for you whether you keep it in your car, your spouse's car, your kid's car, or wherever.
Just bought one today. Tested it and it works fine.Pros:Gauge is fairly accurate (better one so far)Not bad overall build quality, slightly beefier than the other cheap ones i've seenThe tire valve plug seals very well and comes off just as easily - GREAT !The cables wrap around the case and fits snugly inside the compressor neatlyNice compact sizeNice carry case.Cons:Loud as hellLifespan: unknown yetConclusion: not bad for a cheap compressor. If you are looking a cheap decent compressor this is it.
I am still searching for the best black car wax, but this is pretty good. I cannot give it five stars though. I would probably rate it at 3.5 stars. I am toying with the idea of using Carbon Zymol but it seems very expensive at $50 - $70. I have used this Turtle Wax product on our 2 year old Black Nissan Altima. I love the shiny jet black color, but it is a very unforgiving paint color, as every single chip, scratch, swirl, defect will show, not to mention water spots right after rinsing the car, prior to drying it off. The only thing that I can do is to take it to the car wash and let them wash it so that there are no spots. Our water is just too hard to wash it at home unless you have a white car or silver. Take it home after the wash and clay bar the sucker (Meguiars makes the best clay bar kit). Then you can use their ultimate compound to make it even smoother or visa-versa. If you do use the Ultimate compound be prepared that it will remove any old wax or dye that may be hiding the small scratches. Then you can use a nice car wax. Meguiars NXT 2.0 is good (no I don't work for Meguiars, they just make excellent products). This Turtle wax product does hide a few small scratches and the chip stick works pretty good. The shine is not fantastic, but it is pretty good, and it is inexpensive. I am going to try a black crayon next, instead of the chip stick, just to see if it works as well. I bet it will. The chip stick works best in the full sun by the way. Be prepared to get your hands a little blackened and your microfiber cloths blackened as well. They will still work after a good wash, so you do not have to throw them away. Still searching....
I have a '97 S/C  Cobra I use as a daily driver.  This stuff works great for  getting rid of small imperfections and keeping the car "Black".  Doesn't work for bigger scratches or chips tho....
This is OK as far as it goes... and the color stick IS useful... but if you really want a perfect finish, go with the turtle wax Black Bo system instead.  It's more work but well worth the time.
The chip stick does a reasonably good job hiding stone chips and deep scratches, but the black polish itself does not seem to be any more effective than any other polish and it makes a mess out of your rags. I was hoping that the black polish would at least fill the smallest chips and scratches, but no dice, the only thing that does anything is the chip stick but not sure yet how long it will last.
I have an 11 year old chevy pickup which we use on the ranch and the finish on the truck gets abused on a regular basis.  I waxed the truck a couple of months ago and the rain water still beads and the dirt easily comes off now when I wash the truck.
Let's start off by examining the product claims made by the manufacturer, since some people seem to think that those of us who aren't fans of this product are at fault for expecting it to live up to those claims:* Cleans and lubricates the fuel system* Cleans and lubricates the carburetor and injectorsThese are the words of Lucas Oil Products (on lucasoil.com), not me.  So, if you want to lambaste me (or us) for expecting this product to clean our fuel systems, you will have to first explain why we should not expect it to, given that the manufacturer says it will.Sea Foam Motor Treatment is claimed by the manufacturer (on seafoamsales.com) to:* Cleans internal fuel system components* Clean carburetors, fuel injectorsDo you see the (claimed) overlap between the Lucas and Sea Foam products?I bought a couple 5.25-ounce bottles of this stuff for my car, which had a very rough idle.  Certain that all the positive reviews couldn't be wrong, I also bought a gallon of it at my local auto parts store (fortunately, I got a steep discount).I put one bottle through the fuel system.  No improvement.  Then another bottle.  Still nothing.  No noticeable improvement whatsoever.Eventually, I tried Sea Foam Motor Treatment, and with one bottle of that, got the results I was after.  No, I didn't mix the products.As far as I am concerned, this product is positively useless for cleaning the fuel system.  &lt;-- And is "cleaning the fuel system" a stated product claim?  Yes it is, thanks for asking!
I use this regularly and have been for quite some time. Keeps everything running smooth!
These 'miracle-in-a-bottle' things can get reviews from all over the place, both positive and negative, so I don't want to join the extreme voices here.  My experience is based on necessity since the winter fuel here in the northwest is so lousy that all of our vehicles start rough and burn hard.  The awful performance is most obviously when you need to suddenly accelerate hard and the vehicle misfires or stutters.So I tried a couple bottles of this Lucas fuel stuff in two or our rigs and the main thing I noticed was that things are smoother, as you'd expect in normal circumstances.  Now I bought the gallon version and am refilling these smaller bottles and using it full time (pencils out to be about a buck a treatment doing it this way) and it's been about five tanks.  Definitely smoother but not noticing any savings in the miles per gallon department yet.  Perhaps on long trips where it's mostly freeway mileage?  Don't know and really don't care.  The injectors are clear and things are as they should be.Not a miracle, just maintenance...
geat stuff i use it ones in a whie, really helps to clean the system, to be honest i do not notice the effect but the car run really smoth like brand new so cant be better
I had K&N; filters before on BMW cars in the early 2000s, despite all sorts of warnings about it can damage mass air flow (MAF) meter. Love them because they do give that extra-something to the engine during acceleration.K&N; now assures public that its tests were accepted by major car manufacturers, and that it will not void any warranty by the dealer service centers. That obviously speaks volumes. I got this for a recent model Sienna V6 and it fits fine. Look forward to save money over the lifetime while increase engine performance a bit.
I have installed this on each of my cars and my motor cycle. I'm not sure exactly what &#34;extra power&#34; it gives me, but I am sure that cleaning and reusing this is better than throwing a disposable away. Cheaper also
I immediately noticed a change in performance.  The old filter was dirty and replacing with this one gives my Camry more power and acceleration.
This is my third K&N; filter that I had purchased. When Amazon had a sale, I immediately bought a third for my 05 Camry. I also have filters for my 2007 Highlander and 1997 Chevy G3500. They all have given me smoother acceleration and a 10% increase in fuel economy. I went from 19-20MPG to 22-23MPG. It's only a couple MPG, but it really adds up in the long run. I wasn't expecting massive gains, because as other reviewers have said, if these filters gave significant increases in MPG, all the Car manufacturers would be installing these as standard or creating their own versions.As for the horsepower increase claim, I would only know if I put the car on a Dyno, so I can't say if there's a difference.Overall, worth the buy if you don't want to keep buying new disposable filters.
It is used to replace my OEM filter but no improvement can be seen both in performance or gas mileage.
Well I purchased these to save me money in replacement costs and the promise of saving some gas also, no issues
What more can I say; it's a K&N.  I don't know about gas mileage and horsepower but I do know that I spend less money on air filters and my car and low-pressure turbo breathes better.
This filter is cheaper over the long run that buying replacement paper filters.  You will also enjoy better filtering and more airflow with this unit.
No directions and I was confused which side to put it in.  Google it I guess.  However no issues.  I did not look to see if there was any gas improvements.
This is actually my second K&N; filter purchase for the same vehicle.  I find it easier to have two so I can quickly swap them out and have the car ready to go while I wash, clean and more importantly let dry the other filter.  I've never had any issues with this filter, been using it on my 08 Toyota Highlander V6 for over 50k miles so far.  I have cleaned the MAF twice as part of my routine maintenance procedure using CRC Mass Air Flow Cleaner.  The stuff works like a charm.  Use this filter on the 08 Highlander 3.5 V6 with confidence, just my opinion of course!Note: this is a tight fit for the my vehicle, so please make sure you have some patience.  Tip:  Disconnect the main intake hose first (loosen the collar with a 10mm socket).  and then remove all of the mini vacuum hoses and then loosen the two 10mm lid screws.  The whole top should come free.
The fact that you don't have to buy any more air filters is why all my cars have K&N filters.
Great product. Just to confirm its quality I asked a very well known detail shop what they use and it was Lexol
The Lexol cleaner works just as claimed. I used it on a small, out of the way patch before doing all the seats in our vehicle.
I have been using Lexol Cleaner and Conditioner on my cars, trucks and leather furniture for years. It preserves the leather perfectly and I highly recommend it to any who is looking for leather cleaner. I recommend getting the conditioner as well. I will buy this product again.
I needed this cleaner for my leather couches.  These are big couches, a lot of surface area to clean.  Prior to that, I wasn't getting the leather clean all the time using just a damp cloth.While I don't enjoy cleaning, I didn't mind too much using this Lexol product.  This is a very mild product that you don't have to be careful about in terms of breathing or getting it on your clothes.  With a little scrubbing action, like circular movements, it foams up a bit and the leather gets cleaned.  It really works.I've used the Lexol leather conditioner for awhile.  That one is not as easy to work with because you have to buff your leather, and you'll want to ventilate the room while using a lot of it as I do.  But the Lexol leather cleaner is mild and easy to use.
Easy to apply, easy to use. Moisten the surface to be cleaned lightly with a bit of water spray, then pour some Lexol cleaner on your hands. Don't worry, it's safe (as are most leather cleaning products. Remember, leather is basically skin). Rub it in everywhere, then use a soft brush to agitate the surface. Use a wet cloth to wipe the Lexol off. Bam! Clean as can be. You might be surprised how dirty your chair can get when you see the colour of the Lexol foam after scrubbing. Make sure you apply leather conditioner/oil after cleaning to maintain the leather itself. This product is only the cleaner side of things.
Works great. Even used it on a very old pair of leather shoes I had given up on. Did a great job of cleaning them.
Tried using meguiars in the past with mediocre results.  Switched to Lexol to clean the leather in an SL550, made the leather look brand new.  Finished the leather cleaning with the Lexol conditioner as lexol suggests.
As with all lexol products...excellant quality and serves my needs extremely well.  I highly recommend all of lexol products.
I purchased this because our 16 year old and 9 year old cars both have leather interiors, and, ashamedly, I've never done much with them other than go over them with a "leather wipe".Plus, I have a wallet which I really like, but after 4 years of carrying it, age is showing.The Lexol did well getting everything clean, and it was both easy-to-apply and easy to remove.  I can say this size is a little difficult to get just a little on a rag or heavy-duty paper towel.  Actually, I found a wet, and I mean wet, not damp, paper towel was the best applicator.A little goes a pretty long way.  I see the back seats of both cars on the docket for next weekend, and then, after recovering, I'll tackle the L-shaped leather sofa.  That'll take a couple of hours, at least, but it'll look great.Tip:  Follow up with Leather Honey.  Just go check out the reviews...they're not exaggerating.
I always use this followed by an application of lexol leather conditioner. I've also used Blue Magic leather cleaner and conditioner and I found this to be much better. The blue magic stuff generally leaves my leather feeling a bit dry and not slick. I usually apply to leather then leave it to sit for 15 minutes before applying leather conditioner. It gets rid of dirt smudges quite well without leaving much of a spot like you see if cleaning with water.I've also tried this on leather shoes. It helped remove a few minor scuffs (probably just dirt). but bigger scuffs do remain. Should always follow with leather conditioner.
Good cleaner, really remove the dirt from my car seats and sofa. 1 star off for the flimsy bottle cap, broke when I try to tighten it harder.
I own my own auto detailing business and I use this 80% of the time to clean the leather before conditioning. The only time that I do not is when the leather is really dirty, in that case I will use APC to clean the leather. But most of the time this works perfect. Make sure to use the conditioner after for perfect leather.
I'm not a professional and I haven't spent a lot of time detailing my car, but I did some research and wanted to get the best feel and look for my car and tried this product. I've heard everyone talk about the clay and I really don't know the difference, but that may be simply that I am new to detailing my car. Anyway, it took the contaminants off my car and make it as smooth as glass. I can tell from using it that it was smoothing out the surface of the car in seconds! And it was fun! I took the time and did my car in less than an hour and it's look great ever since.
This will definitely be on my to do list when I wash/wax my car.  Even though I cleaned and rinsed my car, the clay picked up other surface impurities missed earlier.  The resulting smooth surface allowed me to have a mirror like finish to the car. It was fast and easy to do.
Meguiar's Clay kit took the bugs ground into the front of my 2011 GMC Terrain without marring the surface. Very solid product.
I clayed the SUV in just several hours! This kit comes complete with the spray, 2 clay bars, and a microfiber cloth. Just wash the car well and start claying. You will be very happy with the difference your car feels after you clay!
I think meguiars is the best product for the price on the market today, you cant go wrong with all of the items they sell just read the directions first.
This is a nice kit for a beginner like myself who wants to get all of the sap and tar off the finish of my car. I had an issue with my order though. I was missing one of the bars. Amazon refunded me though they always come through! That is why i love ordering from Amazon.Although this product works great, it is time consuming as is any clay bar on a car.
Alright first off i want to start by sayiing there is plenty of clay in this kit to clay multiple cars. All of the reviews claiming the amount of clay in this kit is not enough are crazy.I use nothing but Meguiars products for detailing vehicles whether they are my own or for someone else. Everything i have used from this company leaves great results with the right technique.Claying a vehicle cleans and removes any kind of bonded contaminants from the paint on your vehicle. This process greatly inproves the results you get from polishing and waxing your vhicle. it allows the wax to do its job and protect the paint. I just finished detailing a 2002 Mustang GT and a 2010 Camaro RS, both yellow in color. after claying the vehicles the paint was very smooth, applied my polish,Meguiar's Ultimate Polish - 16 oz.and followed with wax,Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax - 16 oz.and on the Camaro i gave Megs yellow wax a try instead of the ultimate wax.Meguiars Hi-Tech Yellow Wax 16 ouncesboth waxes performed great and left the cars looking great! everything was applied using Megs DA poolisherMeguiar's Professional Dual Action PolisherClaying is a must when trying to get a great show car paint finish!
Claying your car is a very important step nowadays.  There is so much pollution in the air and it sits on the paint surface and often gets ground into the paint.  My car was brand new, but it sat on the car lot front line, next to a major Highway and major feeder street, so it had quite a bit of particles on it.  You could not see it, but you could feel it.  I used the clay kit by Meguiar's to remove all of the particles before I waxed my car.  The surface, after claying, was absolutely smooth and the wax went on easily.
Pretty good deal for a clay bar. The microfiber towel is a good size too and the kit is cheaper than other setups I've seen. It does what it's suppose to with regards to prepping the surface for compound/polish/wax or really whatever you end up applying. Don't drop the clay though it sticks to everything. Sadly the kit probably is only good for 2 applications but I doubt you'll see any greater options for cheaper.
Started this on a silver car with a pretty good finish.When done, the finish looked better and felt much smoother.Great way to prep for the wax job.
I keep my car in Showroom condition, and this Clay bar is a major reason I can keep it that way.Pros:Easy to useProduces a mirror like finish every timeNecessary before applying a base waxKit is inexpensiveClay bar caseRemoves paint over sprayConsI wish the clay bar was larger so it was easier to hold.SummaryProfessional detailed mirror finish.  A must buy for people that want to keep their car looking it's best.
If you have never used a clay bar on your car - buy this kit.  You will be amazed at the results.
When researching what to do to make my car paint smooth as glass, I found this clay kit.  Works wonders, especially on weathered finishes.  Test your paint surface for roughness (everyone's has some) by putting your hand in a plastic baggie and wipe it over your car paint.  If it feels rough, which it should, then Meguiar's Clay Detailer is the cure!  Using the spray as a lubricant, the clay is rubbed along the paint surface removing bonded contaminants which cannot be removed by washing alone (tar, etc.).  I love it!
I was expecting more clay but I guess for the price it is okay. I have had to park my new car under trees and the paint has gotten all sorts of specs and things that appear to be imbedded in it. I hope this product works; I have not had the time to try it out yet but only expect the best from Meguiars.
this product did smooth out my hood pretty well. Not quite the results I expected but it was still a big improvement. Very easy to use/apply etc.
This is the only clay bar kit I've used, so I can't compare it to others, but based on the results, all I can say is "Holy Cow"!  I've been washing and waxing my cars for 20 years, usually using a 3-step system (cleaner, polish, wax), and I usually get pretty decent results.  But I've heard so much about claying, I had to give it a try, and I'm glad I did.On my 2006 Honda Pilot with 100K+ miles, I washed and clayed first and was amazed at how much smoother the paint was.  I then tested a panel with Meguairs' Ultimate Cleaning Compound, and it did make an improvement, so I "cleaned" the car, then polished (Ultimate Polish) and waxed (Ultimate Wax), using an orbital polisher.  It took a few hours, but the results are astounding.  The paint is literally (not figuratively) smooth as glass.  I don't think it even felt like this when it was brand new.  The mirror finish is incredible.So if you've never clayed your car before, don't hesitate.  Just be sure to use lots of the included Quick Detailer for lubricant.I found the Meguiar's kit to be very good.  I broke off about 1/3 of the clay bar and that got me through half the car, then I used another 1/3 for the rest (including the windows).  So assuming that was the proper amount, I should be able to do 3 cars with the 2 bars in this kit.  Watch a few of the YouTube videos showing how to clay (including "folding" the clay when it becomes dirty) so you know exactly what to do.
While researching which wax to buy, I found out about clay kits. I'd never used them before. What a difference in the finish. I'm amazed.
This kit was easy to use.  Removed years of neglect on my newly acquired truck.  Removed a great deal of contaminents from the paint.
It is easy to apply. It makes my car look really nice and fun. I love it and recommend it
Never did this type of detailing to my cars before and was introduced to it by a friend.After getting the hang of using a clay bar on vehicle it is a truly impressive thing to see as it strips off all the junk our cars seem to accumulate over time and gets off the stuff that harms paint and makes it both LOOK and FEEL horrible!For the money both this kit and the Mothers are a great deal and even though it only has 2 clay bars there is plenty  to get the job done on a few cars for sure! You should definetly get a refill bottle of the detail spray since it needs to be applied liberally when doing the clay bar process. Having a gallon jub handy is good to do since you cant let this stuff dry out during the job!Cant say enough about this system of cleaning your car off from all the oxidation and grime that builds up over the years!
After the initial car wash, use the quick detailer (spray a lot) and the clay bar to remove the stains or bird droppings that wouldn't come off with the car was alone. This is my first time using this and it is amazing. It leaves your car feeling very smooth too, and it even has a pleasant smell!
I have never had a car I cared enough about to clay before, but now I do, I purchased this kit, and I've liked it.Other reviews go into more detail - No complaints from me, I'd buy this again...
I had used another brand up to this point and the clay would consistently fall apart on me. The Meguiar's clay held together and I was able to use way less on my car. The QD spray is a perfect lubricant to use with the clay and it smells good.
So many people who clean their own cars never clay (most never heard of it).  It's so simple to do, just once every few months do a clay of your car. This kit is great, because it includes a bottle of Quik Detailer. You spray the Quik Detailer, rub the clay, and *bam* watch your car shine.If you want to save money, you could just buy the clay seperately and use some sort of liquid.  Clay does require a liquid application in order to work.  But if you just want to save hassle and get it all in one shot, do this.  Then you can figure out how to save money after you've got the hang of claying.
I wondered about whether I really should use this. It is extra work, my car is always protected. Well, guess what? Some areas (protected from the wind) hardly changed the color of the clay. Others, like leading edges... wow! I also found a couple of old bug deposits and this scrubbed them clean (with a little help from a fingernail) and smooth. I can't believe what it did! So then I used Meguiar's wax, and my car is like a NEW CAR! I could not believe what it did to that paint! It looks better than when I bought it. It was new, but in its second year as a loss leader. (A red little WRX hotrod! Long story sort, I wanted a red cute car, and didn't know I bought a hotrod until much later.) Anyway, it is AWESOME now! The mirrors had started to lose their red most of all, and now they are as deep as the rest of it. LOVE it, and the extra time is very worth it. It doesn't even take all that long to use, either. Spray, scrub, wipe, and then wax it. Love their wax, too.
Do what as it says and you'll get the results you wanted. don't expect it to remove heavy sapping or years neglected birds dropping on the paint. otherwise, this kit will ready your car for polsihing or waxing
This clay bar kit makes keeping my car surface smooth. This one time I parked under a tree and tree sap flew all over my car. made my car feel ugly. I just rubbed the clay over my car after washing and it was smooth again.The clay works well, but it requires a lot of effort.Don't have to use the detail spray if you run out, i've been using water and it still picks up the contaminants.
I like this and the Mother's kit.It did a great job on one of my cars, clay bar is pretty small, therefore the 4/5 stars...Clay is pretty mild compared to the Mother's kit clay bar.The Meguiar's kit did come with a cleaner wax sample bottle...I have not used this sample yet, but from what i heard, is pretty effective in removing anything the "mild" Meguiars clay cannot remove.It comes with a nice microfiber cloth & a case for the clay.The bottle of detail spray was not enough...but since it was my 1st time using a clay kit, I assume I used too much?I highly recommend this kit on what you get, just wish the clay bars were as big as the Mothers kit, but since the Mothers did not come with a case or cleaner wax sample....I guess it depends on what you value more?Meguiars kit:smaller clay barsclaybar casedetail spraycleaner wax sample bottlebigger microfiber clothMothers Kit:larger clay bars (almost twice as much as the Megs kit)detail sprayslightly smaller microfiber clothAgain, i like both kits
Did a nice job though the clay was a bit too tacky which required more of the spray lubricant to be applied.  Car looks and feels new again.
I bought this clay kit because i had used the mothers clay kit before and i wanted to try this one. It is very good the only thing that make this product not make me want to buy it again is that the microfiber towel that came with it is not as soft as the one in the mothers clay kit it is a bit bigger but not as soft.
It is what it is. I have tried a few different brands and have yet to discern a difference. I buy whatever is cheapest at the time. This worked well while I had it. I did notice it sticks a bit more than some others I have tried. Not enough for me to avoid it in the future if it is on sale.
Never clayed befor, but seemed to work decent enough...I used the spray that comes with it as the lubricant, and all went well...I never noticed the gritty feel to the car before, but once you know about it, and use this, you'll understand...makes it smooth like glass!
If you have never used a clay bar to remove contaminents, this is the one to try. It works exactly as advertised.
It comes with 2 100gram bar. Based on some reviews, I cut each into 4 pieces. It works pretty well. It is not sticky. The solution smells good. I am little bit concerned when the liquid runs out. Somebody point out that you can use Dawn dish liquid (1oz per 32 oz of water) would do the good lubricated job.
Great clay bar kit that anyone can use, includes two large clay bars, microfiber towel, and clay lube spray.
Worked well for me, hard to apply - after work is done get ready to spend even more time cleaning your car from CLAY. But overall - it worked, can't complain. Removed contaminants very good and price is fair.(See my other reviews of Meguiar's products.)Recommended.
I was hoping to use the clay bar to remove water spots on a new truck but the one provided with this Mequiar's kit was worthless for this purpose. The kit does include everything you need to apply the products in the kit which is a plus and probably the reason the kit is so popular.
great compressor..was afraid if i used it 1 hr to inflate 4 large tires it would burn out..but no..it seems to be well built for china made..and u cant beat the cost
I needed an air compressor for my Polaris Rzr.  This one is compact and doesn't take up much room.  Works off a cigarrette 12v plug or alligator clips to a battery.  Works well and is a necessity if you're trail riding and get a flat.
This is a pretty simple, cheap compressor.  As others have said, you can take it out of the housing and turn it into a compact compressor that you can store easily.  Especially useful for motorcycles.  Don't try to use it on the battery without turning on the engine though.  You might end up draining your battery.I attach it to a gauge that has a passthrough valve and can check tire pressure and fill up easily before going out for a ride.  Since it's always best to do the tires before you start riding on them, this works out well for me.Accu Gage Air Check Inflate TiresIs the gauge I use
I have owned mine for at least 10 years and have used it quite often during that period. For the price it's a great value. The only hit is that you will need a gauge to check how much pressure is in your tire. There is a valve attached that allows you to check pressure without removing the air hose from the tire.Once again mine has workked well for a lot of years and it has taken quite a bit of abuse in that time. If you are looking for an occasional use inexpensivve inflator and do not mind using a gauge to check pressure than this one fits the bill.Update:Had to finally purchase a new one. Even though the product posting states the pressure check valve comes with DO NOT BELIEVE IT. The new ones do NOT have it and that brings my rating down on this. Had I known that I would not have purchased it. Not worth returning because I bundled it with something else and got free shipping which they would now charge me. My first bad purchase on here. Bummer!
I have been using this product for years and it has never failed me. I now have one in each car for emergency purposes. It is noisybut strong and durable.
I have three of these and they all work just fine! I keep them in the trunk of my cars with a tire repair kit! They are a little noisy and rattles around a bit when inflating, but it does the job!
No complaints.  The thing does jump around a bit and scoot across the ground/floor whenever you are using it but it works and has worked for me for 10 or 12 tire top-offs now w/no issues.
i have used it a few times and it dise not do what is said of the product the interior doea not come clean it does take up a little dust but thats it ,it did not clean all the dust like it said it would
This duster is very handy to clean up your car or truck. It is a fairly large wand that has treated fibers that attract and hold the dust so you can quickly clean your dash, seats and any surface in your vehicle. Dust sticks to the fibers so you are not just stirring up the dust you are collecting it.I like it because I don't have to spray any cleaner and wipe it all up.  This is much faster.  They say you should not wash it as it will remove the treatment from the fibers so I just shake the duster off when I am done.  I can't stand a dusty dirty car and I want to make it look nice and protect my investment.  This duster works quickly and doesn't scratch your car's interior.  The tapered and flat dusting wand even reaches into tight spaces like along the front of your dash against the front window.I like mine and use it all the time!
Despite the 2 negative reviews, this duster works surprisingly well for me. I have several dusters for picking up dust and this is the best one I have.Pros:1) Nice shape, has a sharp tip to go into corners. Easy to hold and doesn't cause fatigue because it is light.2) Catches a lot of dust. Mine doesn't leave any lint behind and I don't know why the other reviewers' do. Perhaps they didn't whack out all the lint when it was new.3) I have feather like dusters as well and I don't like those because those handles bend. This one you can run it anywhere and push it in places because the handle doesn't bend.In fact, it works so well that I take it out and use it inside the house. Once it picks up enough dust I take it outside and whack it against another similar duster. It is very surprising how much dust flies out.Anyway, my experience is that it has worked well for me and I wished I'd bought more than one. It works so well that I use it for computer screens as well as blinds and table tops.
If your interior is already cleaned, don't use it.  It will leave lots of lint on your dash.  I have a one week new car and i wanted to keep my interior dust free.  So I got this from Amazon with other car care products.  I had applied some ArmorAll on my dash and leather seats to keep it protected.  After  a few days I am noticing some dusts are beginning to collect on my dash.  So I wanted to start using this duster.  After opening it brand new out of the blister pack, I used it on my dash and it left a trail of lint on my dash and door panel.  I thought the duster is chemically treated so that it should "Pick UP" dust instead of leaving "LINT"?  Now I am not sure if I would ever use this again....
Not quite up to the quality of the "California Dusters" we've used in the past, but they'll work.  We just use them to dust product off in our warehouse or show rooms.
I use this with my Viair compressor and it makes things much easier. Also great for bypassing the cigarette lighter to charge the battery for many trickle chargers.Only thing I wish was that the clamps opened a little more to fit easier on the terminals/connectors.
I bought this for the cig end, so I cut off the alligator clips.  The clips seem a bit cheap, but the the cig end seems well made.
I got a power plug to power plug style &#34;jumper&#34; device for my daughter, in case the 12V battery on her Prius dies.  Since the Prius doesn't use the 12V battery to start the motor, she doesn't need real jumper cables.  However, it's a keyless ignition, so she will not be able to jump power plug to power plug.  The battery on the Prius is has small terminals, so these are a nice size and should do the job of getting power from someone else's light to her battery.
This is put together well. Not sure why I would need it but just in case I want to run an inverter off of a 12 vdc battery then I can
I have few spare batteries can be used for various car appliances. This tool helps to quickly tap into power of each battery. Also my car battery tester uses the DC adapter (cigarette lighter type), so the test can be done easily on each battery with this adapter.
The cord is long enough for my Jeep, but may not be long enough for larger vehicles if used for a tire air compressor (which is why I bought it). Seems to be fine, other then as I said the handles easily fall off. But for the price, it should work fine for occasional use.
Very handy to toss in the trunk.  Using this will protect your ciggy lighter socket that could get overloaded.  Every car should have one. I use it for an air pump and a very powerful camp light.Note, most lighter plugs are limited to around 10 amps by fuse or circuit breaker in addition they have long run of small (higher resistance) wire to the jack which 'may' cause a voltage drop to your equipment.Short of 'hard wiring directly' this is the next best thing.This has none of that and of course it's the same as hooking directly to the battery so know what you are doing (sparks, load, polarity, fingers)...You might also want to pick up a heavy duty male to female ciggy plug extension cord...
Got this for use with my tire pump, and this works well! My pump kept on tripping my 30 amp AC fuse, the pump was approved for 30amp but I couldn't get it to work. Using this bypasses the AC fuse and it works. I just wish it was a bit longer.
We bought my dad an automatic satellite for his camper, so he would never miss his Twin's games.  The dish needed a 12v power source and this was the cheapest easiest solution for us at the time.  He just hooks this to his battery and plugs in the dish, and boom, there is his baseball game. I also bought him a 120v to cigarette converter but he uses this since it is handier.
I have used this to power a compressor I used to change my break fluid and to put air in my tires. I love this little gadget. I lost a sleeve on one of the negative (black) clips. Still works great but I deducted a star due to the sleeve sliding off. Not a deal breaker by any means.Buy this product. It is very handy.
This adapter works, but the clips do not open wide enough to clamp on my battery posts. I was able to attach to the cables coming off the posts, albeit barely adhering.
the clamps are chincy, the wire guage is smaller than the 12' extension I put on the other end of it. If you're not going to put a huge load on it then I'm sure it will work but you get what you pay for. If it was heavier duty and had an in-line fuse then I'd be happy with it.
I bought this for my viar 85 p with the 12 foot extension so for 14 bucks I have 14 more feet . Just be careful to make sure the wires are not near moving parts or the hot manifolds . Works well . I pump one tire , let it cool a few minutes and do another . Would work with the pump to plug a tire on the side of the road without taking off the car . Just pump up the flat , spray windex to find the leak . Clean it out , plug , and inflate . Then cut off the excess in 15 min if you used glue like you should for a permanent plug . If I ever find the time I hope to mount a female ligher adapter direct off the battery  next to my hitch so I can reach a trailer tire now I need to either unhitch the tow vehicle and move back or take the tire off . I am disabled so it is difficult but I recently bought a impact wrench so I am looking for a good jack as my tow vehicle uses a bumper one not useable for the trailer . The viar 85 p will blow up a 15 inch tire in about 1 min 45 seconds from flat so the wires do not get hot , just let it cool a equal amount before doing the next . If your just topping off it is no problem . Puts in 10 pounds in under a minute .
I got this when I read the reviews about the lighter outlet blowing fuses. I don't like the clamp quality but they are ok, I can fix anything so if they go bad I will just replace them with better quailty
First of all, the cigarette lighter outlet just does not have enough amps to jump start a car's motor. Secondly, the plug was shattered upon arrival and render this battery cable unusable.
I bought this to work with the Master Flow 1040 air pump. I have one and it never blew my fuse. I have been reading that some vehicles may have lower rated fuses in the Accessory circuit. I tested this by connecting it to the battery and the pump ran just fine.
I use this cable with my solar kit and am very happy with the durable construction. I use a small solar panel to charge up my deep cell battery, and then attach these clamps to the positive and negative posts. Voila; an instant DC power socket.I also use these clamps on my car battery when I want to get the most watt power for electronic devices. When paired with a small USB inverter, I can get the full 140 watts from it, instead of the 100 watts available through my cigarette lighter.The cables are of middle thickness, but are smooth and well constructed. The clamps are secure when attached to battery posts, and easy to remove. The length is a bit on the spare side, but I understand that these cables cannot be too long and still provide useful electrical  juice. I'm pleased with this purchase, and plan to order a second one to live inside my car.
I bought this to use with a Vivair air compressor that draws about 15A.  It will work off some accessory sockets, my bimmer works for instance, but not for very long without the engine running.  In my truck, the amp draw is high for the accessory socket and it is only active with the engine running.  This is a bit of a pain when you want to check and air up your tires.  So I clip this to the battery terminals and I am good to go.  The clips are not huge but work fine for me and the construction overall is fine.  It is nothing very fancy but it is well worth the modest price IMHO.
It looks as if it should work but I have yet to test it so the jury is still out on its overall performance.
Bought this to use with an air compressor. I didn't want to risk shorting out a fuse using the compressor in the cigarette lighter in the car.
Instant 12v receptacle, not much more I can say about it.  the leads are a little scrawny but comparable to similar products.
I got this to go along with my 12volt air compressor I got. I'll carry it in my atv in case I run across any situation that I may need it. It's heavy duty made so it shouldn't build up to much heat when in continuous use.
I use these to run a 12v air inflater that is 13 amps. and prevent blowing the fuse on the cigarette fuse. works well, heavier wire than others.
Nothing special, i just got it and it works. Will post in the future if any problems occur or if it holds up well.
Given the reviews, I expected a good quality product, but this item exceeded my expectations.  This is not just some piece of junk that will get the job done, I expect it to last.  I ordered this to hook up to a 12v tractor battery to supply power to my electronics while camping.  I quickly hooked the clamps to my battery, plugged in my phones charger and it began to charge.  I plan on putting together a complete set-up with a solar charger and power inverter.  I am going to order a few more of these for other uses as they come up.
I got two of these.  One arrived with the solder joint on the clip end already popped off, which I fixed, and the other lost connectivity on the sealed socket end within the first few uses.  I'm considering returning them.  They just aren't well enough built to hold up.
Headline says it all.  I use it to pump up a water well pressure tank from a 12 v battery using a small portable air compressor.
Does exactly what I had planned.  Fairly sturdy item that should perform well for a long time.  Not complicated to use.
Shopped around and found the best price on Amazon. This is a handy device to have around whether you own a boat or just a car. Well built and can charge anthing that has a 12V adapter..
These are well build and durable. Although i cut the alligator clips off the product works great and will last.
I sit in my deer blind from dark to dark and texting my buddies and playing games on the cell phone helps alleviate the bordom.  Bad thing is, the cell goes dead before dark.  I carted a 12 volt ar battery to my blind, hooked the Roadpro to it and now my cell battery never goes dead.  Plus, the car battery will keep you charged for a long long time.  I don't keep the phone plugged in, only when it starts going dead I charge it enough to get me by and then charge it at camp for the night.
Good to have on hand for emergencies. Small so it doesn't take up a lot of space. Worth the price.
Both the stock photo, and the J.Koster JPG you see of this product are no longer valid, and whatyou get is what my JPG shows.The product has been cheapened by shortening the wires by half (now 1 foot)by the time you spread the wires apart enough for the clamps to reach bothterminals on a standard sized 12 volt car battery, you have just taken up halfthe wire length which leaves you 6 inches left over.I have not stripped the insulation of the wires to check gauge, but it can't be anymorethan 18; 16 at the most.While the product does work, you would have to use it right on top of the battery, which isOK for me, as I only use it for test purposes.As far as the whole "Front panel illumination" line, I can't figure out why that is in theproduct blurb!The product comes in a cheap clear plastic bag, NOT A THERMAL FORMED PACK! as is shown, sothe product you see is not the product you get.Again, see my JPG of what you ACTUALLY GET.Due to the low price, it is not worth returning, but you should be aware of these changes.
I have a buick lasabre and we were blowing fuses running laptops and a few other things the cigarette lighter. But as it wasn't designed with all the appliances in mind, the built in wiring is light and designed for 7.5A max.Since the battery is under the back seat, I just needed a simple connector that would run into the cabin. This has 12 gage wire and I put a 20A fuse in line and it has worked without problems every since.
I was pleasantly surprised to find out it has 14 gauge wiring which should handle most anything required and nice clamps.  A very good item for the price I paid.
I use it to hook the compressor right up to my battery . The clamps connect well .Three more words
Just what I was looking for.  Works well and have not had any issues.  The quality could be better, but it was also priced right.
I have not used this product yet but it arrived on time and well packaged. Appears durable enough. When I do use it in the spring I expect no problems since it is a pretty simple mechanism. Two wires running off clamps should present no problem. I will update after use.
The gauge on this wire is only 16gauge and it will not safely power all the items that you may wish to run off your battery.
I originally purchased this to use in conjunction with myEquus 3721 Battery and Charging System Monitorbecause I wanted to get an accurate reading of my car battery's voltage. Using that device plugged directly in the the lighter port was not accurate because my car's electrical system is all powered up along with the lighter port.I also use this adapter now when using my car vac (with engine running) as well. It can also be used with powerful air compressors that would normally blow the lighter fuse in your car as this enables you to plug those directly to the battery, bypassing the car's fuses.
This gizmo is just what I needed to run my tire inflator directly off the battery to avoid blowing fuses. This doesn't seem super heavy duty, but does the job just fine. btw, the compressor runs much faster directly off the battery than from the cigarette lighter.Note, the length of the cord isn't too long so I recommend the cigarette lighter extesion cord.
If you know why you need one of these, you won't be disappointed. Quality construction and works well. Great buy.
I needed this item for an air compressor that draws 15A, and my 12V socket can only handle 10A.  This item is perfect, and small enough to fit in my air compressor's case.  It would be nice if we know how many amps it could handle, but the wire gauge provided is more than enough for my 15A need.
After recently purchasing a new motorcycle, I like to be seen. So I purchased these PIAA bulbs and wow, what a differance they make. Although they are claimed to be legal in all states, these babies really light up the night.Now if they last a while, I'll be completely happy with them. Some other brands seem to wear out quickly. PIAA has the best name in automotive lighting. But right now, I am completely happy with them. I ride during the day with my brights on and use the dims at night. But when I own the road by myself and switch on the high-beams, the night turns into day. You can see it all. I don't think many hazards will be able to jump out in front of me without me seeing them first. And that in its self is worth everything to me.They were a little more expensive, but as far as I'm concerned, worth every penney. Still a really good deal.
I installed these to replace my stock, yellowish, non-impressive Toyota FJ Cruiser headlamps.  You can see the difference in a pic I posted, the drivers side is the PIAA and the passenger side is the stock lamp.  The PIAA is visually whiter without the blue look.  I have not spent a lot of time with them on dark country roads yet but the initial feeling is that they should be an excellent upgrade.  I will post up once I have a few miles on them in the dead of dark!Update July 2013.  I love these lights and they are still going strong.  Excellent white light for dark, dark country road driving.  FJ should have come with white lights like this from the factory, they are a great match!Update October 2013....they are still working GREAT!
These bulbs are fantastic! They aren't "blue" at all. Instead they are pure white. If you look at the bulbs when they're turned on, they give a tiny hint of blue, but the light they emit is completely pure white. They light up the road VERY well and reflect much better off objects than my previous stock halogens. A VERY good buy!!
I always have my headlights on whenever I'm driving - day or night.  I had read these bulbs burn out quickly, but I got a full year before the first one burnt out, leading to this order.  That was not really any different than my normal bulb life experience prior to switching to PIAA Xtreme White.During the burnt out time I used a standard bulb.  The difference in brightness and visibility was signifcant.  These make a difference in helping me see better when night driving.
These bulbs work as described. The 4000Ks illuminate clear white for those who want no yellow or blue hues. They are definitely brighter than standard bulbs, but keep in mind nothing will emulate HID brightness.
I just made the switch from the traditional sealed beams on my E30 to some Hella H4's and H1's so I needed some bulbs that would emit a bright white light since I could do that in the new headlights. I almost went for the generic yellow bulbs that allegedly last longer, but I am so glad I didn't and spent a few extra pennies on these. They are so bright that when I combine them with the high beams which are also the same type of high performance bulbs these are, I can see almost a full mile down the highway at night. The generic sealed beams lit up the road well, but nowhere NEAR as much as these do.And for all of the people complaining and moaning about these high performace bulbs not lasting very long: DO NOT TOUCH THE GLASS OF THE BULB!!! This will allow the oil on your hands to get onto the bulb so when it heats up during operation, it heats it up even more, cracks the bulb, and there you have it. Roasted bulbs. So when you are handling them, I suggest you use rubber gloves and don't even THINK about touching the glass of the bulbs. Instead, handle the bulbs by the metal endings so you do will not crack the bulbs. Use your heads before you bash a high quality product and undermine its reputation.
I bought this because the other lights that put out similar Lumens don't last as long.Also it was bought to replace the HID that I was very disappointed in because of a 2 bulb system that distorts, and has holes in the light pattern.This light does a great job and I will see if it last as long as the company says.
The stock headlight and bulb in my Harley are just okay.  I put this bulb in and the light went from "on the border of" yellow to very white with a hint of blue.  I went down a dark, unlit road the other day and flipped on the brights - WOW!  Be sure your headlight is aimed right, because these things project out much farther than your old standard bulb.  We'll see how long they last on a rumbling Harley with a stiff suspension, but so far I'd recommend them if you can get them for around $50.
These horns are just the ticket in replacing stock inferior horns. These are a much nicer sounding horn than the loud blast of an air horn. Perfect horns to boost the warning ability of your vehicle without sounding like a Big Rig.
Like title says I bought them to replace the wimpy locking acknowledgement/alarm horn with this low tone American truck sounding that is also louderThe only downside I can think of, it is considerably larger and I had to cut the factory harness to attach it.I'm buying a second set for my dads Silverado. His horn just crapped out on himWould give 5 stars if it was louderPS I bought them &#34;used&#34; but were like new. no signs of wear at all. just got a cheaper price
There are two horns, not one. One is 400Hz and the other one is 500Hz.PIAA | Automotive Sports Horn (400/500Hz) #85110The are exact fits on the mounts as the OEM horns and use the same bolts. A 1/4 inch drive ratchet and a 12mm socket is needed to remove and install the bolt. They came with grounding leads with ring spade lugs that mounted readily under the existing M6 bolts on the radiator supports. All you need is a 10mm socket.The two wiring harness leads are too short to connect the horns. Two wire tie mounts hold the harness to the aluminum bumper reinforcement. You can cut off the ties and use the OEM harness to connect the horns, but I chose not to.  I prefer NOT to cut off the OEM connector blocks.I made two pigtail extensions out of 18 gauge black primary wire, 5 inches long. One end needs a 1/4 inch wide exposed male quick disconnect. The other end needs an insulated female 1/4 inch quick disconnect terminal. Since I used 18 gauge wire, I used the red coded ones.The exposed male connector slides into the OEM horn connector perfectly. The female one clips easily onto the positive terminal of each horn.The horns how have a weather shield on the apertures.Best thing to my surprise is that they appear to be very high quality and Made in Japan.Also nice is that they need no modification to the horn relay or circuit.
I bought this dual horn kit from another outlet, but figured I'd add my review here. This was purchased for a 2012 Wrangler Unlimited. The stock horn is fairly weak and usually doesn't produce a reaction from anyone who has cut me off or drives 15 mph while chatting on their phones.The install was rather tight. I didn't remove the front grill and just worked from the top down, right above the driver-side headlight. I mounted one right to the bracket where the stock horn was, and the other was mounted in a nearby hole where a hood alarm sensor would be located. Since I don't have a remote start kit, the sensor was absent.I highly recommend that you have some type of magnetic tool to pick up dropped bolts. Unless you remove the grill, you will be dropping things. Also, the kit comes with nothing more than the two horns and 2 ground wires. I had to purchase the mounting bolts/nuts and decided that, rather than splice into the factory wiring, to make a couple of harnesses (see image). I used male blade connectors on one end of (2) 10", 18 gauge wires, then used splice connectors to attach another 6" wire to each of these leads. On all of the (4) remaining wire ends, I placed female blade connectors. It turned the wiring job into a simple plug-n-play operation, while utilizing the factory hot and ground.The horns are definitely louder and the dual horn tone cuts through like a champ. It does startle people all around me when I lay on it. That was the idea, so I'm really happy with it. Supposedly, they upgraded 2013 models to a dual horn. Some report that it's still weaker than this PIAA upgrade. I recommend this horn kit if you want to restore your horn's functionality.
My 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser's stock horn was, well, pretty pathetic.  A single horn that wasn't very loud and would easily get lost on the highway - and it's amazing how many people are unable to see that bright yellow SUV so a horn that works is cruicial to my survival.  The PIAA horns dropped in with very little work - the FJ is wired for a second horn, so all you need are a couple of electrical tips, about 3 feet of copper wire, and a 10mm bolt and you can put the pair of these in front of your radiator where they'll do the most good - most other cars, I suspect, will have similarly easy installations.  The difference in volume was immediately noticeable.  They're not train horns, and they won't make your ears bleed, but they're appropriately loud car horns that install easily.
I really thought this PIAA horn combo would really have attitude. Sadly these do not. The youtube sound clips are deceiving at best. I gave this horn combo a 3 star rating bc they have a very clear high low tone sound to them. If you are merely looking to replace the factory horns, then these will do it. You`ll probably find less expensive horns than these that would suffice in that case. If you are looking for louder horns, then do yourself a favor and continue searching.
Put on 2009 Street Bob.  Stickers came off fine.  Fits at the A section of the front frame, little hole there.  Find a bolt, done.  (Well, that and plug it in).
Really like this wash.  Has a very sweet smell like candy.  Truck came out looking great and water sheened right off.
I love this car soap, it's just rather expensive. However, unlike many other car soaps, like Meguiars Gold Class (which is easy to find locally and less expensive), this needs very little to create a lot of suds. This is a very rich soap that clings to the paint while you are washing, helping to protect your finish from dirt and other debris that could scratch. Highly recommend.
I previously used a Turtle Wax car wash to wash my vehicle. Decided to pay a little bit more and try this out. Excellent product. It leaves a distinct shine on the vehicle. A couple of my co-workers even asked if I had gotten the car detailed. I paid $13 before Amazon dropped the price to $10 so I got a little ripped off, but this product is definitely worth the few dollars more you pay over the mainstream  brands.
I use this in a sprayer with a bit of water for dilution. It smells nice, like bubble gum. :-)
I love all of Mothers products. They truly are a good value and product. My car does really look clean after using this, but it is Vermont, so it doesn't last long!
Here in Texas our cars don't get that dirty, however this soap does a great job getting what dirt we do get off.
Plenty of suds with my soft water. Don't need to use much, just follow instructions. Mother's makes nice products IMHO.
Before Mothers California Gold, I was using Meguiar's Gold Class exclusively for my car wash.  I thought the Meguiar's was quite good. It had the best cleaning power and was the least harsh of the car washes that you could get at the auto parts store. After using Mothers, I think I will be switching car wash soaps. This soap actually made it easier for me to dry the car! As the label states, I was able to achieve a dry, spot-free car with fewer passes of the towel as compared to the Meguiar's, which took more passes.Make the switch. I know I will.
this is a wounderful bottle of washing soap for your car or truck or van or just about anything as it makes the vehicale look better and yet brighter and it shows that you care about your vehicale enough to keep it clean as its a investment and is worth the cash to buy this soap and will give you a shiney and clean look and i highly recommend this soap to everyone and all my friends and employees and family thank you...
This is the best wash Ive found, you need very little to do the job. Try this Iam sure you will like it also!
The soap suds well and keeps it's suds during my entire car wash. It leaves a nice shine and doesn't streak much at all.
I use this paired with a lambs wool mitt to clean my car every time and it turns out great every time.  This stuff will last too because it is super concentrated.  The car shines even if I don't use wax.
Doesn't take much per bucket, so this will last me quite a while, especially with my tiny smart car.Does a good job cleaning, as others have said, little residue so it rinses well and with a chamois dry, leaves the finish looking very good.And doesn't "funk up" your washing mitt and other washing accessories as some other products I've used in the past did.
It really does make a difference to use soap that is made for cars. I was using Simple Green before, which was fine, but this stuff cleans the bugs and other sticky stuff right off and leaves the car looking good, with less effort. Nice smell too.
Mothers' products are always top notch.  An ounce or so in a 2 gallon bucket and you have all the suds and cleaning power you need for the average wash.
I have been using Zip Wax  Car Wash for a while now.Last week I decided to switched to Mothers  Car Wash; to be honestI have seen no major difference in the products; they all do mostly the same job,cleaning grime and dirty from the paint surface without destroying the wax.
This is one of the best car washes I've ever used.  What surprised me is how great this stuff smells!  It's really a nice touch when washing your car to have such a pleasant odor, no joke.  But the bottom line is that this does a great job of cleaning the car without anything hazardous to your vehicle.  I use this on my Porsche Boxster S and know many other Porsche owners who swear by it for good reason.Cheers
Product does a good job sudsing as any good car wash detergent should.  Bonus, has a pleasant smell to it.  Would recommend it to any car enthusiast.
The smell alone is five stars, smells like bubble gum.  But the product works really well too...it leaves a great shine and I barely put any in the bucket and it produced a lot of suds so this bottle will last me a long time.
I got this for my dad as a gift, he loves taking care of his car and he was pleased with it.
This vehicle cleaning solution did a nice job.  It effectively washed the vehicle (dried bug guts and all), left very few streaks and was easy to rinse off. I see no reason to look elsewhere for another product.
Works just like the nearly interchangable Meguiar's. Top notch stuff, everything it makes. These two the only brands I use.
This stuff is expensive and you only get a small amount.  Lets face it, 32oz is a medium soda.  MOTHERS, please give us a little more for the $, your product is great though.  4 stars for quality, loses the 5th for the amount you get for the $.
It's a carwash and a sort of garage/yard freshener.  After every carwash my yard and garage smells good so it's a kinda dual purpose to me.  Aside from smell the carwash does it's job on cleaning my SUV pretty well.  My son likes to help me wash the car because of the smell and that is an extra selling point to me :
The product works well. I've used it for years with good results. You don't need very much, I use 1/4 cup in a five gallon bucket. It cleans the car without stripping the wax, and dries to a streak-free clean.
Are you kidding me...the bubblegum smell is awesome!When paired with warm water and a decent wash mitt, this product does seem to loosen up dirt and bugs and makes cleaning rather easy.I've been using this product for years and haven't had any complaints until I left my car inside my warehouse and used the acetylene torch to do some metal cutting. The fallout from the torch stuck to the car like glue and nothing has been able to take it off except for a product called Super Gloss Ultimate.Unfortunately, the Super Gloss Ultimate is extremely hard to find, but for those interested it can be purchased at iShoptogive.com. No, it's not a car wash soap, it's a wax.
When the grime and break dust on my aluminum wheels gets really thick and hard to remove, that's when I break out the aluminum wheel wash and mini detail brushes:Meguiar's G14324 Hot Rims Aluminum Wheel Wash - 24 oz.,Mothers Detail Brush Set - 2 Pack.But even these may not restore the shine.  For that, I use Mothers Mag & Aluminum Polish.  It works great, and it leaves my aluminum wheels looking shiny and like new.I normally use one of my husband's old (white) athletic socks to apply it - by wearing it on my hand like a sock puppet.  The instructions say to use the polish sparingly, so I just put a dab on the sock and rub it around.  It removes any remaining road grime, brake dust - and water stains, which are sometimes the hardest to clean - fully restoring the finish to its previous luster.  The old sock "hand puppet" allows me to reach into every nook and cranny.  I then use a cheap microfiber wiping cloth to finish the job and remove the polish.I couldn't be happier with the results.  This isn't something I use every time I wash my car or my wheels.  But when I need it - nothing else works quite as well. I highly recommend Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish.  This jar will probably last you a really long time.  Enjoy.p.s. I find it's sometimes easier and more comfortable to polish my wheels - by taking the tires & wheels off of the car.  Gee, isn't that what hubby's are for?  If he's in the mood, he doesn't seem to mind.  This allows me to stand up while I work.  Just a suggestion.
This polish works very well.  Mothers is a great brand and have not had any issues with any of there products.  Using this polish is simple and very effective.  It will make metals look brand new when you spend the time to get down into the crevices.I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs a good polish.
Just a smidge of this product will turn a once tarnished nasty piece of aluminum into a beautiful shine that you wouldn't believe. Really you can see your reflection in the surface after polishing it up. Will always purchase Mothers Mag and Al polish
Using this for polishing stainless steel pistols as well as internal gun parts. So far, it works great without the usual noxious fumes and stench of some other cleaners.
Maybe it was my buffing tool but this paste struggled with cleaning up my mags neglected through a Michigan winter . I have allot left before I run out so I will update if anything changes . This is a fine polish not really for cleaning from my experience with use and since they mags didn't clean up I can't comment on fine finsish polishing . Need something a little grittier to buff before using this as a final polish . I have had very good luck with simichrome but it is allot more expensive by volume .
Been looking for something to shine up this ole diamond plate toolbox I bought from craigslist.Tried regular car wax,nothing,Brasso,nothing.Decide to try this & see what happened.Made the box look brand new.Couldnt be happier.Might have to get more to have on hand.Took some pics to show how this stuff worked,but I only see a way to add a video.Thought you used to be to put pics here.Oh well.
this is a wounderful polish and cleaner for rimms and wheeles and makes them shine and look good i highly recomend this polish to all my friends and family and customers and now i recomend it to you please try i know you will like it and will continue to use it as we shure do thanks again
I use this stuff for all kinds of metals that I need to shine up. Mainly use this on my Ruger Mark III Hunter, it is all stainless steel and this stuff really cleans/polish's very well, a little goes along way.
I used some to polish my kitchen sink.  I think the sink is made of galvanized metal and I am not sure if this works on that, because it didn't make it shine anymore than it was.  But on the faucets and sprayer, this thing made it like a mirror shine.  It was amazing.  Definately give this stuff a try, just be sure to test it first.  Read the directions carefully.
I have 19" Aluminum wheels on my BMW.  I had the lip refinished a few years ago to fix some curb rash.  The refinisher didn't redo the clearcoat, so the wheels eventually got water stains on the refinished rim.  This stuff really worked well to clean it up.  It takes some elbow grease, but the results are remarkable.Beware, as it says on the package, if your rag doesn't turn black, the surface can't be polished.I didn't realize how small this 5oz package was though.  I used about a quarter of the tub doing four wheels.
This is some of the best metal polish paste I've ever used. Even though it isn't explicitly stated in the description, it does work on other surfaces if care is taken. For example, I polished and buffed the tinted windscreen for a vintage Japanese motorcycle I am restoring. Took off all the dirt and allowed it to be polished and buffed. Looks much better than it previously did. Works on any household metals like tea kettles, stainless steel sinks, silverware, etc. Can't go wrong and the price is right.
This product works great as advertised.  Be sure to constantly change or use a clean cloth.I would recommend it without a doubt.
Mothers 5101 Mag & Aluminum Polish Paste - 10 ozWOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!My wheels look better 8 years later than they did new.Worked hours polishing and cleaning but..... The final product is amazing.Buy this stuff.Recommend the small power ball using this.RagenRat
I've used every kind of wax and polish there is and this Mag and Aluminum Polish works great on wheels. It will add shine and luster to polished aluminum wheels where they have faded or tarnished a bit. I use it by hand but you could use it with a buffer if your wheels are really tarnished.I would not recommend it for highly polished wheels or aluminum, for that I recommend Mother's Billet Polish. The difference between the two Mother's polishes is the amount of abrasive and cleaners in each one. If your wheels or aluminum parts are in really good shape, the Billet Polish will give them a mirror finish, the Mag and Aluminum Polish will probably slightly dull the finish. If the wheels or aluminum parts have lost their shine then I would recommend the Mag and Aluminum Polish. There is a big difference between the two but not detailed enough on Mother's website.
This is a brilliant metal polish. My wife even uses it on the candle holders. It will shine up the dullest brass until it literally gleans. Great, great stuff.
Its ok there is better glass cleaner out there I bought it cause you can use it on tints cause theres no ammonia I wont get again
My new Accord didn't respond well to Windex, the so-called &#34;supreme&#34; glass cleaner.  I thought something was wrong with my window, being coated with oil or something. Not the case once I determined Windex = pure junk after trying this Mothers' glass cleaner.  Wow!  What it cleaned perfectly without any streaks at all, even with using cheap paper towels.  So if you're frustrated with poor quality glass cleaning because of Windex or some other junk cleaner, don't hesitate to click and buy !  It's rarely in stores by the way.
I required an ammonia-free window cleaner for my tinted windows. This does the job quite nicely. It isn't how well it does, rather how safely it does it.
Here in central New England Windshield attract grime and saltin winter.  It is too cold (27) to use most glass cleaners.This Mothers cleans better than others and is practicallystreak free.
I'm an absolute fan of 90% of Mother's products and this glass cleaner is worth the price for removing streaks and that &#34;film&#34; on the inside windshield.  Was hoping the price was a little lower since this is only glass cleaner, however, was less than what I'd pay at the local auto store (which doesn't carry it anyway, so the price is irrelevant I guess).
Works as advertised, glass turns out very cleaned, almost even reflective at certain lights/angles.The best way to use this is to apply it like a wax - use one towel to spread it around, and a dry towel to &#34;buff&#34; it. It will show if you don't
This cleaner works very well on my auto windows. I have tried many auto window cleaners and so far this is the best. Unfortunately you can not find this product in stores. So, I will buy this on Amazon cause it works.
AWESOME PRODUCT as usual from Mothers.This company never lets me down and always has top quality products for my car...~!
I use a lot of Mothers products but this glass cleaners is the worse. It leave streaks all over the glass. Also, when used on the inside of the glass it fogs up the glass. At night the glass fogs up so bad it becomes dangerous. I've tried using a Microfiber and Terry cloth towel. I've switched back to straight water to clean the glass.
I purchased a bottle of Mothers Glass cleaner simply because I have used other Mothers products (waxes) and they seem to work very well. Also, this cleaner is safe for tinted windows because it does not contain ammonia.Unfortunately, I was extremely disappointed with this glass cleaner as it streaked more than Windex and no matter what I tried, I could not remove the streaks at all!I did not notice any difference in the streakiness between non-tinted and tinted glass. Both were pretty bad.I ended up just throwing the bottle out and went back to using microfiber cloths and purified/distilled water.
This works extremely well at removing scratches from instrument cluster plastic. When trying to remove scratches from very soft plastic like an instrument cluster, you need to make sure you are using a soft application method. At first, get a nitrile glove and gently apply the product with your finger. Make sure to not let the product dry as it will be hard to remove. If that doesn't work, use a high quality microfiber towel and don't apply too much pressure. Worked perfectly for me.This also is great at removing scratches from a motorcycle windscreen. I used this on my bike with a Smartwax 70301 foam applicator pad and it remvoed 90% of the scratches.
There are no Mother's products that I have tried that are not good and do just as advertised.I use this one on the windshield of my two motorcycles.
I only use mothers brand for all my Jeep needs. very good plastic polish. if you have a jeep with plastic windows this is the product for your jeep keeps windows clear and scratch free.
This is a Very Good product I bought a New 2013 KIA RIO and bugs and Dirt and Grime get on those Plastic Headlights, and Small Scratches. this is a Very Good product I have found that When you clean the plastic with mothers glass cleaner and then buff by hand this stuff into the lenses it helps with the bugs and scratches.
Lately, there seems no difference between polishing compound/rubbing compound. The latter used to refer to very coarse material but this no longer seems true.I use this compound mostly on plastics and it can remove residual adhesive, scratches, etc... It can also be used to polish clear coat layer on metallic paint. Paint whatever with metallic paint first, then spray a few layers of clear paint (gloss). Wait a day or two to completely dry and lightly polish with this compound & soft cloth. You'd be happy with the result.
with plastic bumpers being the norm, thought I'd use this plastic polish.  It brings the shine to the plastic painted areas just like step 2 does to the metal.
This is a GREAT product (what isn't from Mothers honestly??) to buff up and polish plastics.  I used this for my upper third brake light for my ranger and it took the dull hazy out of it and made it nice and shiny.  Used it also on the plastic on the gauge cluster and it made it nice as well.I would NOT use this to polish the headlights... get a kit that is DESIGNED for headlight restores, that is a multistep process...etc.  This has minor abrasives but once buffed out leaves the plastic with a nice smooth almost deep finish to it.  I'm sure it has oils to put back into the pores of the plastic.Overall a solid product to bring back some life in dull and worn looking plastic pieces.  Plus it doesn't break the bank...Thanks,-Nige
Charges without fear of overcharging.  Does a great job of maintaining my battery in perfect condition in all conditions.  Super compact unit with ample cord length.  Highly recommended!
I bough this because I have a Honda accord that a track and sits in the garage all winter.  I need something to keep my Otpima red top charged and this does the job perfectly!!  No issues and highly recommend it!!!
The tender works marginally well and after a few years the grounding prong pulled loose of the plug. I cut the unit's plug off and replaced it. This unit keeps the battery charged but I've noticed my voltmeter reads just over 13 volts every morning so it seems to me that this unit is keeping the battery barely charged instead of fully charged. I recently bought a Solar ProLogix 12 amp battery charger that seems much better built and keeps the battery more fully charged. If the ProLogix literature is to be believed, it is a much more sophisticated unit than the battery tender while the cost is just a few bucks more.
I do not know if this is any better than any other but I have 4 of them and have given several as presents. This works on all types of batteries and even my 2009 BMW motorcycle when BMW says it will not.Good product
I am using this device to trickle charge 2 scooters, a Honda & a Yamaha. The quick connectors (which I haven't installed yet) are great and will make make this process of switching from one scooter to another much easier. I highly recommend this charger.
Have used it to charge my Beemer. Good unit, I believe the OEM BMW unit is also a rebranded Deltran. I fried the first one by plugging it into a 220V outlet and bought a second one with no hesitation.
This is Battery Tender's "smart" charger which can be used with the new AGM battery technology - which is exactly why I bought it. It works great and my seasonal sports car (allergic to ice and snow) will require fewer batteries now. This is the best product of its type on the market.
I tried the Same, model BMW had made for their Parts Department. Even with a discount and the BMW Sticker and a Car Club Discount, Not the Same as the Real Thing. (Returned it Promptly back to BMW)Amazon.com comes through again! The Battery Tender has all the Features for your Car, Bike or Outdoor Equipment! The Extra Battery Connectors were first to get added to my cart, then the 25' Extension. It also has traditional Clamp on Clips for regular jobs. Much More flexible for long term needs of a Car Nut, Motorcycle Nut or anything else that has a Battery! 12V and Stored most of the time. Perfect to leave in Float Mode and the Battery life will definitely be extended.I am going to wire up everything I own and permanently wire them for a Battery Tender, Even the Generator!Bought a Battery Tender Bag to keep all of the Accessories, GREAT Engineering and Options! I will one day own a wall mount to power my entire collection of Toys!Enjoy!BatmanDSM
I have used Battery Tender chargers for decades now.  The product is always well-made and reliable.  It can handle any battery and is great for batteries being stored long-term for maintaining a charge.  I use it in my garage to keep the motorcycle battery charged during the winter.  Highly recommended.
Works great! Had one from Griot's and it fried 3 batteries before I figured out it was the charger, not the batteries. Bought this one and it
The &#34;Battery Tender 021-0128 Battery Tender Plus 12V Battery Charger&#34; is a best buy.  It does everything they say it will do.  The add for it is not over blown and it did bring my battery back to life.  I am really glad I got it;
I bought this for my 1996 Harley and found this to be the best battery tender. It works great and keeps my battery conditioned over a long Pennsylvania winter! When spring comes my bike's battery is ready to go. I have owned this product for about 2 years and it is great. It is so simple to use and has the connections necessary to use on different batteries. My uncle ended up buying this exact one for his tractor and trolling motor on his boat. He is also impressed by the quality!
I've had one for years on my Harley FatBoy.  I got 7 years out of the HD battery cus this thing is always on the bike when the bike is parked in the garage, a fantastic product, low cost top quality.  It keeps the battery in perfect shape, always.  It does everything claimed by the mfg.  I have even used it in an emergency once for my car battery, where I left something on inside the car all week without realizing, battery was dead, rather then jump and possible cause a problem in the newer cars with damaging all the electronics in the car I put the Deltran on for a couple of hours and it brought the battery back to life to start the car.  This tiny thing charged up an Audi A6 battery which is enormous, and it paid for itelf over time by keeping my HD batttery good for 7 years!!! And bike batterys sit around unused a lot more than a car does.  Fantastic product, it is teh best out there too, other brand chargers have issues, these don't.  Perfect
This is a good little charger.. no bullcrap .. you just plug it in and it kicks butt.. i like it :-)
At the time when I bought this I only had once motorcycle. Now I have two and with I bought the one with multiple ends. I would recomend to anyone who want to keep a battery on standby and not be dead when you go to try to start it.
I own several vehicles and motorcycles and I had one of the pre china battery tenders and it lasted for several years. it did so well I bought 3 more of the battery tender pluses at one time at Christmas 2010.one worked for about 9 months and then would not go into the float mode. It killed the battery from overcharging. hooked up the next on a different battery and it worked about 2 weeks before doing the same thing(not going into float mode).  the 3rd one lasted less than a week........... each has a 10 year warranty so I phoned deltran and spoke to their "tech". he cannot understand my problem........ tried on different batteries. plugged into outlet first blah ,blah ,blah. I paid over $100.00 for 3 of these Chinese junk chargers.I can send them back and they will check at my cost if nothing is found wrong I would be charged a service fee and return shipping. poor customer service ,bad quality. for what these cost they should last.Do yourself a favor and do NOT buy these battery tender chargers........Update: 1-15-2014 buy an xtreme charger......I have 3 of the red xtreme charger, see my review ........
I had the 'Jr.' version of this Battery Tender and for my VT1100 it wasn't sufficient to keep the battery at the ready to start; all it did was prevent battery deterioration and sulfation.  The 'Plus' model does the battery tickling to prevent self-destruction, but it also charges the battery and keeps it at max for me and ready anytime I want to start the bike, including in the cold weather.
Charges my Harley Streetglide battery flawlessly.  I love that it also has a storage mode on it so that you do not overcharge your battery.  For the price it is a must have in your home or shop.
I have one Battery Tender Plus and love it, No problems with it. Works Great on the quads and motorcycle, Also put it on my electric start generator. I make a habit of every month to swap it from one unit to the other for a couple of days.Till fully charged. All batteries keep at full charge. Also put it on my pick up and jeep when i don't drive them much.Also i charge the battery in the trailer. I guess i am to cheap to buy another. But this way i look at the batteries and check.The pick up and Jeep and trailer have big batteries and take a little longer to fully charge. Great unit.A must have and AMAZON has a great price.
I purchased this Battery Tender to keep the battery in my summer car charged up in the off season.  Unfortunately this battery tender caused my battery to leak acid all over the trunk of my car causing corrosion and requiring an expensive repair.  I purchased this unit specifically because it's NOT supposed to overcharge a car battery.  What a mistake.  Don't buy this product - it doesn't work as advertised.  I reached out to the manufacturer via their website twice but they never responded to me.  Faulty product + no customer service = fail.
So, I have both a Battery Tender Plus and a Junior.  They're great devices; I've brought batteries seemingly back from the dead with them when some other chargers I had could not.  However, there are two points worth making:The Junior and Plus have the same logic; they only differ in the maximum charging current.  Basically, the Plus will charge a battery up faster.  If you're only using them for storage or you're not in a hurry, save nearly $20 and get the Junior.  But I expect that you'll be happy with either one.The one complaint I have is with the Warranty.  My Plus stopped working recently.  I'm not sure why; perhaps a power surge or something; it's not like I've ever dropped or abused it.  In any event, since they have a 10 year warranty, I called Deltran up.  I can send the unit in (which will cost me $8+ for shipping with some kind of tracking so I can verify that it arrived) and then they charge $17 and change for a "warranty diagnosic" and return shipping.  So, it basically costs around $25 to get my $40 device serviced under warranty.  It's not a completely unreasonable sum, but if Deltran really had faith in their products, they could easily eat that cost - I think I should at least not have to pay for a diagnostic fee on something under warranty which I've already proven to not work in multiple outlets and on multiple batteries. I think I'll just pay the extra $15 to get a brand new one, and use this as a paper weight.But anyway, the products work really well.  My advice is just to buy this assuming there's really no warranty; as long as that's your expectation, you won't be disappointed.
Bought this to maintain a VMAX battery to work with an inverter.  Seems to be doing it's job correctly.  My spouse has a few of these in the Jr. model, I think.I wanted this plus model, I hate to wait...
This charger is just what is needed for those times when your battery is low or dead and you need to get back in the action.Small but large on help for your AUtomotive Battery.  Can be used on any type of Automotive Battery.  Even charges and normalizes Deep cycle batteries and won't over charge either.  A real  little Dynamo
Very good! if you don't have one and you are thinking of getting one, just get it!
Bought this to recharge my riding Lawn Mower battery. It has not been run during the winter as my grass is dormant. I tried to start it the other day and it just would not start. It sounded like the battery was getting weak. So I purchased this at a reasonable price and tried it. It charged the battery over night and now it starts just fine. Easy to use. You can leave it attached and after charging the battery, it will switch to the &#34;trickle&#34; mode, keeping the battery charge topped off.
A neighbor told me about this - its not a full fledged battery charge, but it offers convenience as I have a number of vehicles that sit idle at times and having a trickle charger without worrying about overcharging is great.
This is perfect to keep my battery charged in my dual battery truck that is used seldomit took over 8 hours to load the batteries as I expected not bad for a 1.25a charger
I have had motorcycles and cars for years.  Keeping the batteries from sulphating is a big problem for other than every day drivers.  The technology in the Battery Tender Plus is exactly what I need for the batteries in my classic cars as well as my Harley.  I like it so much that I bought Battery Tender Plus units for my two brothers so that they can keep the batteries alive in their motorcycles too...  Great product and I hope to be able to save some bucks not having to replace batteries as often, not to mention that I can hop on my Harley and take off at a moment's notice...  I plan to use it on my boat marine battery too.....  I may order the 4-up model to be able to keep multiple batteries alive at the same time....
Living on a farm I have many pieces of equipment that is not used every day and this unit keeps the batteries topped up so when I need the equipment it is ready to go. Also it keeps my second truck charged up during the winter.
Of all the battery chargers on the market, the Battery Tender is the best.  The device is small and portable, works exceptionally well for maintaining batteries and does not over charge (over charging can decrease the overall life of your battery).  It is simple to operate and can be left hooked up to a dormant battery while it is not in use.  The Battery Tender can be used while the battery is hooked up to a vehicle/mower/etc. or not.  Highly recommended. I comparison shop a lot before buying anything - hopefully you can benefit from my time investment and review.
Does the job it says it does.  I connected the quick-connect to my battery in my 2004 Honda Civic LX.  I poked the quick-connect through my hood so I don't have to raise my hood every time I want to change the battery.  I pull in the garage (after driving) and connect the battery charger with the quick-connect.  I let it charge all the time.  I rarely drive; so it helps keep the battery charged.
Time will tell, but this battery tender appears to be very well made. The unit is pretty compact and solidly built. I am not a fan of plastic in my garage. It typically indicates to me that the manufacturer is looking to cut costs and maximize profit vs. putting out the highest quality product that they can. This unit has a metal housing.Anyhow, this unit was super easy to set up on my motorcycle and lawnmower. With the leads already installed, I just have to plug it in. The conditioning mode of this tender will go a long ways in increasing the battery life as well.I would certainly recommend this unit!
This is the Cadillac of battery chargers.  I put my Miata on the charger each winter.  Doesn't overcharge the battery, doesn't dry out the cells, just works perfectly.  It will even charge up a dead battery if you give it a few days.  At this low amperage it isn't ideal for this, but it will work.This is about $50.  A new battery is about $100.  Leaving a battery discharging or not charging for a long time (months) kills the battery.  Do the math and you see you can't afford not to have one.
Bought this to keep the battery fully charged when I store my mustang for the winter.  Does a great job at keeping it charged and if I ever try to turn the car on it starts up right away.  With new cars constantly draining the batteries, I think this is a must if your car sits for more than a week.
I have one on my motorcycle, and purchased this one to tend my trailer batteries through the winter. I went onto the Battery tender web site to find out how to hook up batteries in parallel so I can charge the 2 Marine deep cycle batteries that power my trailer. It is working great and looking at the diagrams I will be able to hook up my 2 spare trailer batteries in parallel for a total of 4 deep cycle batteries.
This is one of the better battery chargers out there.  Why?  Because it is temperature compensated.  This is important if the battery will be exposed to variations in temperature, either hot or cold.  Other brands offer desulfation and remote temperature sensing, which is valuable, but this one can be found cheap, and gives good performance.
This is perfect.  It comes with some small alligator clamps and also comes with wires that can be more permanently installed.  It charges and cycles the battery so it won't overcharge.  Cord lengths are long enough and the unit has a nice led system to tell you what it is doing.  This is exactly what I needed for my car which sometimes spends a few weeks in the garage without being used.  Tired of coming home from business trips to a dead battery that needs to be jumped (then replaced).
I purchased this Battery Tender Plus in July of 2011, it's now March 2014 and it still works flawlessly.I use it in the winter to keep my motorcycle battery topped off.Not much else to say except that this was a wise investment. Trickle charging with this is the best way to maintain the longevity of your battery.Would recommend to anyone parking a car, truck, or motor home for more than 3-4 weeks. Or anyone parking a motorcycle for over 2-3 weeks.
A good handy item to have. I have used it on my motorcycle, lawn motor, 2 scooters and have tender leads on all of these items plus my farm tractor. I also brought a couple of tender leads with the battery clamps, one in my motorcycle and the other is with my farm tractor in case I have a dead battery all I have to do is hook those leads to jumper cable and battery tender leads, am ready to start whatever the jumper cables are hook up to. Make sure that the jumper cable negative and positive are not touching each other
I had my Vespa dealership recharge my Piaggio BV250 battery after winter storage.  They actually used this battery tender to charge it for me.  However, they only sold the Deltran Tender Jr (0.75 Amp).  This charger has a faster charging time than the 0.75 Amp.  My batteries charge in about 4-6 hours whereas the Jr take about double that (though exact timing obviously depends on how depleted your batteries are).  I've used this charger since then and it's been great.  It's simple to use: plug it in, connect the clamps or leads to your battery and wait for the green light to light up (indicating a full charge).  There are two sets of connecting cables (one is a clamp and the other a screw on) which is good depending on your need.  One benefit of these two cables is that they actually fit into each other and can be used to connect your battery to your bike WHILE your battery is outside of your bike - I had to use this feature because I accidentally shut my seat (lock is battery powered) when the battery was out and had to connect my battery remotely.If you have a Vespa or other scooter, I would highly recommend getting this charger.  In cold weather, scooter batteries die in about 3-6 weeks of inactivity.
I have several of this model and one with less output but that one is weather/water tight for my boat and jet skis and have been using them for around ten plus years and none have failed yet, other chargers I have bought at auto parts suppliers have never lasted and did not maintain batteries as well it is apparent the batteries are either made better or these charges just maintain them better I am pretty sure it is these chargers.
Great for those batteries that you don't use year round on motorcycles, rvs, lawn mowers, etc.Like it enough to purchase a double one the following year.
this charger works perfectly and is just what i needed to keep my bmw battery topped off for it doesn't get driven much.
Add me to the list of failures...after 11 months. I do not know why I ignored over 30 one star reviews. I thought with all of the positives, they must be flukes. Well mine just fried, nasty burnt electronics smell, no lights, no output. It did not hurt the car it was attached to and I discovered it very soon after failure. It is not worth the hassle indicated by others to file a warranty claim. I ordered an Xtreme hoping for longer life and good performance. Anybody reading this review, beware! The failure rate on these Deltrans is too high.
I have been using a Battery Tender Junior for about 5 years on my motorcycle.  I always plug in the bike and it works great.I recently purchased the Battery Tender Plus to use on my Duramax truck (2 batteries).  It seems to work great so far.  I expect long life of the unit and the batteries just as I have in the past using this line of Battery Tenders.I give it 4 instead of 5 stars only because of the short length of cable they give you.  The Junior's cables are so long that I can run that thing clear across the room.  The Plus' cables are so short that I had to splice in more cable.  They apparently don't expect you to charge your batteries in-vehicle with the Plus.By the way, the Plus brings my 2 very large batteries in my truck upto full charge in less than 8 hours.  They are new batteries and the truck's charging system works just fine and the truck is even driven almost everyday.  However, there is alot of parasitic draw on the batteries with the remote start / alarm system on overnite.  Combined with the 100 plus degree heat of the desert, the Battery Tender Plus is warranted.Of course I would not expect it to recharge my truck batteries if they were dead.  It is not designed to.  Make sure you look at the specs and know what you need.  I just needed a battery tender - something that would keep my batteries at full charge or restore the bit of charge lost overnite from the parasitic draw of the car alarm / starter.  By spec, the Battery Tender Plus cannot recharge these large batteries from dead.  Again, know what you need.  The tech folks at Deltran can help you with that.
Had a bit of bad luck with my first unit I ordered. the charger would not enter its 'float' mode where it maintains charge from 100-103%. amazon replaced no problem (love amazon's returns! no hassle) and got one that worked great. I love this thing. In the winter It gets quite cold where I live and I have 2 cars. Sometimes I don't run 1 for maybe a week or more at a time, so while it sits I throw the charger on it. When I go to drive, disconnect cords, and she roars to life. When I first got this I was using to charge a battery that had completely died. It charged the battery in about 24 hours, the battery was a full size 12v car battery. I believe the manual said it should have taken around 18 hours. Either way, for getting a battery maintaining and charging device for this price I have been very happy with the product. These come with 2 types of cords, one is just the alligator clips and the other you can use to actually put under the screw that holds the battery cables in place to the battery. I have the more permanent one on my car and just use the alligator clips for my truck. If you really like the permanent ones you can order and extra set of them, I think they cost 5-6$. Overall very happy with product and would buy again if I needed another charger.
I've had my Battery Tender Plus for 10 years, it has bounced off the concrete garage floor a number of times and still works fine. It has really extended the life of my motorcycle batteries. I leave it plugged in all of the time, it will not overcharge or boil a battery. Excellent product.
I got this to plug in to my lawn mower a few weeks till spring to make sure the battery had a good charge, since I had to use a motorcycle to jump it earlier in the winter, to see if it worked after I bought it (came with the house). This Battery Tender did the job. I plugged it in for a few weeks, and then when it came time to start up the mower, it had no issues.The small size of the unit is a plus, as it is easy to store when not in use.
I'm one of the klutzy people who really can't manage technology, but I bought this one because my friend suggested it. I loved how easy this charger was to use, and it came with very easy to follow instructions. It's a really top notch product, and I recommend it to all my car-savvy chicks.
I doubt this thing needs another 5-star review on top of the thousand it already has but just to chime in, this product is great: simple, easy to setup and understand and comes with more parts and connectors than you probably need.I have this paired with an Odyssey battery (B0000BYEXOand it was no trouble, straight out of the box.  Plugged it in, attached it with clips (there are other options here, but the clips seemed easiest) and it started charging.  I checked back a bit later and it was in "Storage" mode and nothing exploded so all happy on that front.I was surprised that something this small and inexpensive could be such a nice battery charger and tender.
I have one permanently connected on my mini-motorhome.  It works great while connected to AC power AND the engine is running.  Whenever I'm hooked up to AC power, the battery is maintained when powered up and not damaged when the engine is running.  I'd surely call this a must have for RV's.
Have a Junior for my Toro Zero Turn lawn mower and two tender plusses for my Fiat Abarth and Benz AMG...they are easy to install and work great.....you can not go wrong with this product.
Had my battery tender plus for just over 2 years and it worked great for those 2 years maintaining the battery in an antique car. Recently I put it on the battery on my daily driver and the charge light didn't come on. Testing on several other batteries seems its lost its status lights and all its regulation and just puts out a constant 15 volts now cooking whatever battery I hook it up to. Their tech support was rude and unknowledgeable. Of course their warranty is a joke since it will cost 50% of its value just to make use of their warranty. I considered buying another but with so many other choices now on the market I can't rationalize the battery tenders high price. I replaced it with a Vector for the same price which has twice the features.
No complain, is working right and perfect. 4 stars cause it should bring a switch to turn on and off and the clam to connect to battery is week it should be stronger .I will update . let's see how long last, I never have one.
I have a 2000 Mustang GT convertible that I keep garaged and drive on nice,sunny days. I had been using a cheap trickle charger from Harbor Freight. Recently I discovered the battery had died so I decided it was time for a &#34;real&#34; charger. The reviews were great so I decided to give it a try. It is a small but powerful unit. It took  my battery from stone dead  to a full charge within 24 hours and it automatically maintains a full charge. It uses LED lights to let you know the status of your battery. I wish it had a gauge instead of the lights but I still would highly recommend this to friends and family.
After owning this for only a short duration, this seems to be the ticket to a longer lasting battery. For a vehicle that sits more that it is driven this is certainly cheaper than the headache of a dead, and possibly damaged battery.  Very small size with nice build quality and cables.
I now have 5 Battery Tender Plus chargers. Ever since I started keeping my little used batteries on a Battery Tender, I have not had a battery failure.When I first bought my Generator (over 15 years ago) the starter batteries would only last a couple years because the Generator was used so infrequently, sometimes not for a couple years. Since then, I now leave a Battery Tender connected and also start the Generator once a year. The current battery in my Generator has now been in for almost 10 years!I had to replace the battery recently (2 years ago) in my Polaris 800 ATV because it kept going dead (after couple months) because I didn't keep it on a charger (it sits in a shed with no electricity). I didn't think it would be a problem because I use the ATV 4-5 times a year. But modern AGM and Freedom Batteries cannot tolerate repeated deep discharges. I knew better but was too lazy to keep pulling the battery out or running a very long extension cord to the shed. Now I remove the battery and keep it connected to a Battery Tender.I could site many more instances where I am now getting triple or even greater life from equipment or vehicle batteries by keeping them connected to a Battery Tender Plus. Given that even a small ATV battery costs upwards of $60, the cost of a Battery Tender will pay for itself in a few years.And Battery Tenders have a 10 year warranty, unheard of for any battery charger.
It works, and that's all that matters. Returning from overseas, I got home and went straight to the garage to fire up my Harley. The battery tender showed a good charge. I disconnected it and she started right up.
I have used this for years on my motorcycle battery. The adapters are included , so I leave it hooked up to my battery and run the wire under the seat. When I'm ready to hook it up , all i have to do is plug it in .This one i bought for my mother to use when her car sits idle for a few months every year while she travels.
I have used Battery Tender products for some years so had high expectations of the Battery Tender Plus.  I use it to keep my truck and ATV batteries in tip top condition as they are not used regularly and have had a tendency to go flat.  The charger makes light work of recharging and when in maintenance mode keeps the batteries fully charged.  Electrical consumption while maintaining charge is very light.
The day before I was to leave on a trip I found the battery was dead in my car. I don't drive this particular one often so I knew I could jump it but sometimes when they are that low driving it doesn't bring it back up enough. So I checked Amazon for this charger and they just happened to have it local so I got it that day - awesome luck! Charged it over night and the next day we were off. It didn't get to a full charge so when we got back I put it back on until the green light came on. Then I stuck it on the other car. I plan to use this once a week on both cars. The size of this charger is so convenient I will take it with me just in case.
Never lost a battery to winter low temperatures/forgetting to charge it since I got this.  I peer thru a garage door window occasionally to check that it's little LED light is green, and that's it.  I chose this brand because it doesn't drain your battery if the power goes off.  We have power outages here from time to time, and our old wiring has had some bad connections show up in our house's history, so I didn't want that worry.Chose the Plus model because I'm using it on a size 27 or 29 (can't recall which) deep cycle battery.  It took a long while charging when the battery was 50% discharged, but it does do it - no need to fast charge the battery first with another charger.
Works very well, good for the bike, car or boat.  The unit does tend to get a bit warm whne in use.
I was tired of my RV batteries not correctly maintaining charge. Had used other "Bargain Brand" chargers with poor results. Seems to be working fine. I use it to maintain two 6 volt batteries wired in series. I am monitoring the price of this item and plan to buy another if and when the price drops. (Easy to do if you leave one in your Amazon Cart.Steve
I bought a battery tender Jr & the BIG ONE,for cold weather in Pa.Cant really tell the difference,suggest the Jr unless you have specific needs.
We have a 2006 MDX which is rarely driven....its a family car.  That fact alone means that the battery wont have enough juice to start the car when we need it.  The TENDER not only charged this battery, but kept it under control so that the car started perfect when we needed it.  This is a must have product for your garage.
Bought this because of all the reviews, but it did not work for me.  My Harley uses an AGM battery, and found out after the purchase that this charger cannot charge an AGM battery.  For a simple battery maintainer, this product is big and heavy.  I expected more.
Battery Tender Plus - supports my 2-Bank system & allows me to keep charged all batteries...definitely recommend to others.  Would buy again & again & again.  Great price & fast shipping.
Purchased this to maintain the battery in one of my vehicles that sits over the winter.Shipped extremely fast (received next day) and just got done hooking it up. I remove the battery from my vehicle because I didn't have any outlets near the car and I didn't want to run an extension cord because I am sure someone would trip on it or unplug it.This unit came with 2 cords to attach to the battery (via alligator clips or ring terminals). I ended up using the alligator clips and everything worked out just fine.I then plugged the unit into the wall and the red light came on which means that the battery needed to be charged. It's been on for about an hour now, but that's ok with me because I purchased this thing to maintain the battery, not to rapidly charge it.I do like the fact that the manufacturer offers a 10 year warranty for this item, however it clearly states in the manual that you need to send $15.95 with the unit for evaluation, shipping & handling. Then the warranty card states that if any repairs need to be made, the company will notify you of the cost. Sounds like some sort of a screwy scam to me, but if this unit ever fails (hopefully in many years to come) I will simply purchase another one because I am sure it would cost you about $5-10 to ship the unit back to the manufacturer, then you need to include your $16 fee and then pay for any repairs. The darn thing only costs $40...why would you pay and waste your time trying to collect on the warranty?All in all, I like this thing and as long as it works for many years I will be happy.***UPDATE 2/18***I ended up putting the battery back in the car and running a HD extension cord.I've checked the battery every few days with a volt meter and it is holding constant at about 13.27 volts.Still happy with my purchase.
Fairly new battery from autozone.  Brand new, it measured14v.  Left the cabin light/3rd stop light on overnight by accident and battery was down to 12.7v.  Still good enough, but my alternator wasn't taking the battery back to 14v.  Tried this tender for about 12 hours.  Voltage is better.  It works.
This is an excellent way to keep your battery topped up all year round, with the very slow charging rate and safety cut outs your battery will always be in tip top shape. i have two, one on each of my bikes and i think they were a great buy.
This is a nice little compact charger that I like so much that I got the accessory plug-in battery hookups so I could use it without the clamps on my pickup and motorcycles.
Purchased the battery tender to maintain a full, healthy charge on my vehicle and generator batteries. My vehicles and generator don't get used very often, so i'm really hoping this product extends the life and performance of my batteries. Since it has arrived, I've been very impressed with it's performance. This product is much smaller and safer than any other charger/tender I've yet to come across. Keep in mind that this is a trickle charger, charging only 1.25amps per hour, so it does take some time to properly charge a battery. As the instructions annotate, it will NOT charge a totally dead battery (for safety reasons). This is defined as a battery with 3V or less charge, per the manual. It goes on to explain that when this is the case, the battery is likely defective and needs to be tested/replaced. Overall, very happy with this purchase. Only thing that could've made me happier would be if it was made in America.
I use this to keep the battery charged on my motorcycle during the off season. No problems or complaints whatsoever.
If you have one of the millions of GM pick ups with the base mirrors these are a reasonable add on for towing.  They are easy to install after some practice.  Easy to remove - not sure why some other reviewers had problems with this...  Just unscrew the clamp and slide them off.  They are a little tough to adjust because you need to move the mirror beyond where you want it and let it snap back a bit. Just takes a little time.  Once adjusted they stayed put. They are stable on the highway but on bumpy roads they cause my OEM mirror glass to vibrate more than the add ons.  This is probably due to the extra weight of these.  You will definitely want to take them off when you are not towing.  They make your truck look like Dumbo and people will bump them in parking lots.  Best price by far was Amazon when I bought them.
save your money.  cheap plastic stuff that wont work.  it wont stay on the mirror it is supposed to attach to. falls off blows off.
Exactly what was offered, fit nicely, no major prep work, won't fade or crack, adjusts perfectly, easy removal and fits under seat in truck
Can see the sides of my camper and vehicles behind me just perfect!! Easy to mount! They look like factory mirrors and do not shake or rattle. Love em'!!
Put these on a 2006 Yukon Denali XL to see around a 26' travel trailer. They fit like a glove and look very nice. Both the mount and the mirror are solid. You can adjust the little mirror, but it is stiff enough that it doesn't vibrate going down the road. The instructions recommend cleaning your mirror before you put these on and I would recommend it too. The didn't scratch my mirrors and they were hard to slide on and off, but they are tight enough that if you have a large chunk of something on your mirror, it may cause damage to your mirror over time.
These mirrors are just what I expected. They are easy to install, fit perfectly, project far enough to see along the side of the trailer and do not vibrate in the wind. I feel that they are better than the built-in extending mirrors, and cost far less. I have not had to adjust them since the first time I set them up.
Our Chevy truck has chrome on the forward facing part of the mirror.  After using these mirrors for a few camping trips, it ended up getting a little scuffed.  It wasn't bad, but it was noticable.I would have taken them off after each trip, but the installation (although not overly difficult) was not easy enough for me to do so every day.As for functionality, the mirror is a little small, and although it DID give me increased visiblity, it wasn't quite what I was expecting.Maybe I was expecting too much from this mirror, but I couldn't bring myself to give it 5-stars.  I'll keep using them (especially since the chrome is already scuffed!!!), but this isn't a 5-star item.
Let me tell you, backing up a 35 foot camper is a pain when you only have the stock mirrors!!!! These made all those troubles disappear and might have saved my marriage too. My wife can't seem to get the hang guiding me back. There was usually lots of yelling and cussing involved!!! Anyway these mirrors work great and are very easy to take on and off. I've had them on at 85 mph and they didn't even budge. And no the camper wasn't hooked up at the time!!!
I purchased this for my 2005 Avalanche to use while I am towing my 28 foot camper.  Prior to having these all I could see behind me was my camper, now I can see any car that is behind me, it's a must have for anyone pulling a trailer that is difficult to see behind and is much better and more stock looking than the other mirror options out there.
Repeat Order. This is nothing more to say.  I bought this the first time based on others recommendations, was pleased, and now have re-ordered.  That about says it all.
Love these. They actually make the &#34;black water&#34; black. When dumping with a clear elbow, it's a bit more pleasant.
You cant beat this product for keeping your RV tanks smelling fresh and clean.  I have tried just about everything else and nothing compares.  Also, fyi, the house boats at lake powell (near grand canyon) also use this product daily in the boat tanks.
Easy to use and really did a good job eliminating holding tank odors. I've tried many different options and I'll stay with this one. Drop a packet or two into the tank and forget about it!
I've been using these for the last year.  I have had no real odor problems.  Easy to use, just drop one in the tank and your good to go.
Highly recommended.  Just make sure it has ample water to get started (1 gallon minimum).  Used in warm and cooler weather without issue.*Update:  4/2014: after camping an entire season with these, I found that they didn't work very well.  Tissue and waste didn't seem to break down very well, and it most certainly doesn't mask odors very well.  I even tried using 2 packets instead of one (for a 30 gallon tank); no difference aside from things being very blue!I think I'm going to try the "tried and true" Happy Campers  Organic treatment next.
Aside from the fact that it kinda reminds me of bubble gum when I put it in the tank (I have no idea why it smells like that to me), this product does what it needs to do - keeps the odor of our waste tank to a minimum. We combine these with Walex BIO-11530 Bio-Pak Natural Holding Tank Deodorizer and Waste Digester to manage the odor with these, and digest the waste products with the other. Combined they allow you to empty your tank less often and take longer off-grid trips without being revolted when you get back to a dumping station.
Drop a few of these blue bomb to ward of those nasty tank odors. They help keep the sensors clean too!
This product is added to the black tank only when we are traveling in an attempt to control the "morning startup slosh odors.
Ok, finally have actually used this in the travel trailer.  It was a 3 day 3 night trip.  When time to empty the waste water, the smell was not nearly as bad as we were expecting(from watching youtube videos), and these porta- pak packets is why.  My sister uses a fluid deodorizer that breaks down waste and I use these.  She has tote that gallon sized thing each trip, mix it up with the correct water etc....  All you do with these is 'drop it in'.  No it doesn't add a citrus smell or cutesy smell, it just simply does what it's supposed to do.  As easy as the dishwasher gel packs....really like this product.
These seem to work a bit better than some of the other packets.  Maybe it's that my waste is stinkier than others'
this is a great value vs the packs of 10 at the camping stores. I will repurchase here only, thanks!
I have been using the liquid blue stuff for 4 years and never had a problem until trying these blue packets. Now I had to call out a pluber because the toilet paper was not breaking down. Don't waste your money on this stuff!!!!!!!!!!!! And by the way amazon won;t let you return it either!!!!!!!!!!!
Smell the freshness in these tablets. I usually will toss one in the toilet on my travel trailer at the beginning of my camping trip and it will deodorize it. I never get a smell from the toilet while using these. They are great. One per camping trip is all you need. I have a 40 gallon black water tank. I have not tried other tablets because I am very happy with these.
Walex TOI-91799 Porta-Pak Holding Tank Deodorizer, Not as well as I thought it should would work. Had to put several pak's in. And yes I empty my tanks every week.
These packets do an amazing job at keeping my RV tanks from stinking on hot days.Best I have triedHighly Recommended
These work just fine.  We're new to RV'ing and any advise is welcome.  But these seem to keep things in good working order.
This product screws into the city water inlet and then I hook up my air compressor to it to pressurize the lines to blow them out.  This is my first time winterizing and we'll see if I did an adequate job, but it was pretty easy to use.  If I didn't and I have some plumbing damage, it wasn't because of this product but rather that I didn't do an adequate job of clearing all the water out of the system.
To keep plastic water pipes from freezing in winter, this device is used to blow any excess water out the pipes.  Easier to use and cheaper than using marine antifreeze.
This works very well for blowing out water supply lines in an RV's plumbing system.  Be aware that there can be water still in the lines even after blowing out air through every faucet, so when winterizing, it can't hurt to use a RV safe antifreeze just to keep the water at the low spots (elbows, valves) from freezing.
I bought this one which cost a bit more but I am sick of all the plastic junk and this one appears it will last forever.
For years I make shifted air hose attachments for blowing water out othoses and lines before freezing season.  Lo and behold, here is a handyattachment for hoses that simplifies the work tremendously.
Have not used it yet but nice to have when needed. Thought this would help winterize if no RV antifreeze available.
This plug is a must if you winterized your own trailer to blow the water from the lines so they don't freeze.
Works like crap. Does not allow enough air in to blow lines out. Save your money and use an air nozzle instead. Trust me!
Makes blowing out you water system do winterizing so much easier. Only thing better would be a way for it to hang on to the air hose by itself ;-)
I used this tool to winterize our travel trailer.  Simply screw it on to your water hook-up, and then attach your standard air adaptor to your compressor hose - and presto - you're in business.The tip is flexible, but secure.  That is, after connecting your air hose to this plug, you can tip the hose in any of 360-degress, and it will flex.  This is great, because in colder weather a more rigid adaptor might break.I would recommend this plug for anyone that wants to winterize their RV, and I would purchase it again.
I bought this version over the plastic version because you can connect any type of air compressor to it. The adapter is the same kind as used in car and bicycle tires.I used it last weekend to clear the water lines of my travel trailer and it worked as advertized.I initially was going to just use a bicycle pump to push the water out, but I managed to borrow an air compressor at the last minute. I blew the lines for about 30 minutes and then pumped in some RV antifreeze as recommended by my trailer manufacturer.Even though you'll only use this adapter once a year, I would recommend this over the plastic version because it should last a lifetime.
I have at present two coaches and have had to do the line blowing out thing on them both and am very glad I bought this handy little item
Great for blowing out the water lines in a RV.  While I've been using one for several years to winterize my RV, I bought this one to winterize a vacant rental home I have.  Very heavy duty metal and does exactly what they claim.
This product is for turning a petcock valve, not for removing/installing a drain plug.  It's my fault for not reading the description clearly, but what I wanted was a tool for removing the drain plug on my Atwood 6 gal water heater in my travel trailer.  The nylon plug is in an awkward location and without a long socket extension (which I dont' have) it is a pain to screw and unscrew.  Even though this plug is only finger-tight.
This is a great tool.  Due to arthritis, I could never get the drain plug insertedcorrectly so it leaked profusely.  This enabled me to insert the plug(a replacementmetal one)with no leaks!
Got this to use with the valve I purchased which was the wrong size, so have not used it, but never hurts to have it in case.
I could easily have made this tool, but I'm getting lazy in my old age. It beats using a pair of channel locks, and much neater.
I have not had to use this yet but it seems well built and would get the job done right
This little guy helps keep a 'cold plate' fridge with a balanced temperature.  You may find the fridge running more often due to air movement.The 4 star rating is due to the considerations required on placement due to the air intake location.
I had this unit for about 2 months.  Works fairly well.  The tabs on the bottom of the unit broke after a month.  I used tape for awhile and then gave up on it.  Try the:  Valterra A10-2606 FridgeCool 11.28 mA Fan with On/Off Switch.  I've had it for five years without any problem.  The Valterra is much easier on batteries too.
seems to be working pretty good. hasn't had any food smell hanging around in fridge. uses 2 d batt h
This is our second Camco Fridge Airator.  The old one lasted for 7 years.  They are efficient and work well at keeping the temperature even throughout the fridge.  Rated it a three since this unit does not stay closed very well once the batteries are mounted inside.  They provide some outward pressure on the closure mechanism (pressure needed to provide battery contact).  Like the old unit, it uses plastic tabs to hold it closed.  Looks identical to the old unit (and it stayed closed), so maybe just a problem with this particular unit's tabs?  Not a deal breaker, as I put an elastic band around it to make sure it stays closed while were driving down the road.
Like the single bars, this can be dislodged.I am looking at gluing in some sort of seat to hold it more securely.Good idea but needs improvement.
Keeps items from falling out on TT/RV
I just installed 3 of these and they fit well and are well made. I am expecting them to hold up for years.
I think this is going to save the eggs. The last few times we have taken the trailer on a trip all was well but the it items in the refrigerator that shifted. Last trip it was three dozen eggs that fell when the door was opened. I hope all will be well now.
this refrigerator bar works great! I like it because it's adjustable and keeps items from moving around as I travel.
Works great with the single bars to keep things in order in the refrig. Traveling every other day makes it easy to step up with out having to go in and setting everything back in place or clearing up spills.
We ordered a couple of these because we bought one when we got our RV and see how useful it can be.  Also lots cheaper than at RV center.  Thanks
This keeps taller items in my RVs fridge secure as we are going down the road!! No more crying over spilled milk!
This helps to keep things in my RV frisge from shifting while we are motering down the road.  It sets up with ease.
The bars did keep the food in the fridge from sliding around when we traveled but it doesn't fit really tight so if something heavy was in there it would probably push the bars around.  I've had better luck using the packing pillows that come in packages.
I purchase two of these for when we are traveling from home to campsite in our motorcoach.  These are not spring loaded, like I originally thought.  You install by placing it where you want it and then turning each rod to tighten against the side of your refrigerator.  Removal requires that you loosen the rods.  Works great.  We leave on in place but the second one is used only during transportation.
These things actually work. They keep stuff secure and they are not just for use in the fridge. I would buy again.
Maybe on bus-sized class A motorhomes with larger refrigerators this is useful, but it is not any good for my RV refrigerator (26 ft vehicle, decent sized refrigerator).  I don't use this, as it is too large, and use the single bars instead.  They work well.
Clever item. You can push all your refrigerator items back and hold them there while traveling. To lengthen, you have to unscrew the upper and bottom rod. Then you have to twist them while holding in place in the fridge to tighten them.
This holds milk, 2 liters and other tall items in place in you do not have to worry about them spilling as you travel.
Easy to install. Screw out each tube to the necessary length, and the rubber ends hold the bar in place. Just got back from a trip. My refrigerator door somehow came open. Thank goodness I had these in place or I would have had a major clean-up.
What a difference it makes.  There are many varieties of hose support.  This one is tough plastic.  Easy to store, and works perfectly.  Expands very easily and slopes perfectly to make dumping easy, quick and hassle free.  Never dump without it.
I have two sewer connections on my trailer, so I initially wasn't sure what to do.  The first two trips I just connected up the hoses to the Y connected and then had to "milk" the contents into the sewer.  This was not fun.  This product almost completely eliminates that horrible process and keeps things flowing downhill.  I actually purchased two - one for each sewer connection.  This keeps the elevation correct to the Y connector.  After that, the site was pretty level, so there wasn't much of a problem.I've only used these once, so I cannot comment on longevity, but I would likely replace them if they break sooner than later.
Trivia:  You can't have a sewer hose on the ground in Oregon.  It must be elevated!Betcha didn't know that, but what the heck!  It's always nice to have your "stuff" run downhill into the dump station instead of just sitting there in the hose!  Some people (Joe Flatlanders) carry a rain gutter to accomplish the same thing, but is a rain gutter collapsible into a nice little package with a handle?Word to the wise:  NEVER leave you black tank gate valve open!  It's ok to leave your gray tank open but NEVER leave your blank tank valve open!
The sewer hose support is very handy. Comes small enought and with a nice handle to carry. It expands from 1 foot to 20 feet and inbetween. Now there is no worries about not having enough of a pitch on the sewer hose from the camper to the sewer drain. With this placed properly so that the sewer hose slants away from the camper towards the drain (and not up hill) I dont have to worry about a potiential clog in the hose and everything empting out with a proper flow.
A must have item, but use care as this can break (and still be usable).I would not be without one.
Camco 43041 RV 15' Sidewinder Plastic Sewer Hose SupportGood price and needed 2 of them to hook both dump stations together on our new camper.
broke on day 1. bit cheap in construction.would recommend different product, or even a different approach all together
This is such a great item. It keeps the sewer hose from sagging or laying flat on the ground. Gentle slope all the way from the RV to the sewer inlet.
I camp at a nice camp ground.  It's more rustic than many RV parks and popluar campgrounds so not everything's perfect.  But hey that's why we camp right?  One thing that is less than pleasureable is the time spent at the dump station.  My station is slightly elevated over the road height so one person had to hold the hose up so everything could flow downhill and another person had to operate the dump valves and water at the station.  No longer!  Set the hose in the craddle...pull the valve...hold the flush water valve.  That's it!!!  Now this was designed for full service parks that have sewer hook-ups right next to the rig, but it will work equally well for both.  The carry handle acts as a retainer, and like all good RV productions it folds nicley into a compact and light package that stores easly most anywhere.  The price is good here on Amazon, beating out all retailers I've found with the savings on shipping.
Item arrived late yesterday. Just unpacked today. Took it out, reviewed it, unfolded it, folded it back up, stored it camper. Very straight forward and perfect for our travel trailer. Compact easy to open and close. The sewer hose we got with it fits perfectly. Should make for a much easier time dealing with the hose and draining. Plus it keeps the drain hose off the ground, which was really what I wanted.
highly recomend it for other rvers. i have one on each rv. the longer the better when it comes to this. if you only use it a short distance then you have better stability. if used along way still holds hose up fine as it was designed.
Vast improvement over using branches, bits of wood or handy stones. Folds up and easy to carry. A must have sewer hose item.
This product works great as support for the camper's sewer hose and stores away very quickly and compact.  Very happy with the purchase.
My old slunky was a bad bad thing it never worked this has some quirks its 15 feet of 25 feet of hose so it takes some getting used to overall better off
Sorry to say, I  have never used the sewer hose support as of yet.  So  I can not really say how good it is. I guess it is a great hose support if you have to use it.  Sorry, can not say how it works
If you decide to get this I also rcomend you get some lengths of gutter, at least 2 pieces, you can lay in on the expanded matrix so the gutter hose will not fall between the expanded sectiond.  So this and you have a great working system.
Easy to use, easy to store without taking up much room.  Holds the hose at a nice flow angle for good drainage.
This is my third one to buy..... why? They work great and I have bought them for family with RV's! It really helps with keeping the lines clear.
As others indicate it's light plastic having easy-to-break plastic scissor arms so I've handled mine gently; has &lt;20 uses and still folds for space-saving stowage as designed.Like Worst: I have difficulty keeping Support upright; it's frustrating to set up without it toppling over.Many times (99%) after I've accessed secure setup (with big rocks or other helping keep it upright) I'll find it toppled over due to chute heft, expansion etc, a recurrent frustrating issue.Yeah, now while thinking about it, less I like ... I'd not buy again; will search for one different/sturdy when this one expires.Anyway, I keep chute short and steep, it helps.  I keep grey and black dump valve closed until tanks partially full, then drain by pulling black (poop) valve release first allowing it to drain then pull grey (sinks & showers) valve release; recommend freshwater rinse (before RV storage) if equipped.3 Stars for Price, 3 Stars Other, perhaps fair.Kyle
We can't even get this type of thing in Australia - greatest invention ever for RVs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's just so handy!
This sewer hose support compresses to about one foot or will stretch out to match the length of a fifteen or twenty-foot hose. A convenient plastic carrying handle holds the assembly together for easy transport and storage. Using this support to keep the sewer hose off the ground can provide a smooth slope from the RV to the campsite sewer connection to ensure a continuous, efficient flow of the effluent without pooling that could freeze in cold weather and cause backups.  Raising your sewer hose with this assembly also makes it less likely that someone will step on it.  It's made of lightweight plastic which, if handled roughly, will snap.  But with reasonable care it should provide many years of useful service.
Very easy to use, very easy to fold up and handle makes it super easy to carry and store.  Works great!  Beats leaving your black water hose on the ground or rot and helps the flow into the septic.
All RV'ers should have one. I bought this before right after I bought my TT, and used it right away. It's particularly useful when you have a long run to the sewer drain. Much better and easier to use than a couple rocks or pieces of wood.
This affordable plastic sewer hose support works well for our trailer needs.  I like that it's compact and easy to close.  Highly recommend!
this makes installing and running your sewer hose really easy just route it to the dump hook up and ly the hose in it you are good to go!
This is a great hose support as compared with the one I had before this. Not only does it have a carry handle that keeps it compact for storage, it has a deep enough area for the hose that the hose doesnt just slide right off the support like my old one. This one is also much stronger built and doesn't flip over on its side. Works great, easy to use, easy to store and well worth the money.
Seems a bit on the fragile side but after using it for a while and handling it gently, it's proven worth the money. Carrying handle makes for clean compact storage.
I like the Camco brand.  The nice thing about the Sidewinder is that you can snap and unsnap parts of it to change the length.  It comes with a handle that most of us probably toss away with the box.  The handle takes up too much room and is not worth the bother when preparing to move.  Who wants to wrap your arms around a muddy sewer hose holder to wrestle the handle back on?  I just tuck the holder into a bag for the move.
Before getting these I had seen others using them, but not appreciating how well they work to keep things moving in the sewer hose.  Now we use this even with the Smart Tank.  They are well designed and hardy to stand up well even when stretched out over a pretty good distance.  Yes they can be secured to the ground if need be.
While this may not be sexy, it sure is handy!  Also, it beats the heck out of using leveling blocks or whatever you can scrouge!  Helps keep you from having a smelly stoppage :-)
Very light, it stores easily and the handle makes it easy to haul around and easy to store.  Holds the sewer hose in a nice even drop from rig to dump regardless of the distance it has to go.
This is an ok product, but not as well constructed as I thought it would be, I found it to be very flimsy and figure it won't be long before the &#34;joints&#34; break from expanding and contracting
This thing is a breeze to use, but I've had some segments snap apart while I'm setting up. The arches are tall enough so I can snake my water hose under one of the supports.
Its a lot bulkier than I expected.  other than that is fine.
Seems a little flimsy but i guess it's sufficient for what it needs to do.  Good design.  Rack holds it in collapsed position for easy storage.  I think they could sell for less since it is only about 2 pounds of plastic.
this is a great product does everything it says.this fixed my drain hose problems and kept the waste water flowing.
After purchasing this, I spend a lot less time lifting and shaking the sewer hose to get all of the good bits moving.  It's nice having gravity on your side.It's flexible, so it can follow a lateral curve if that's what you need it to. Folds up quickly and the carrying handle keeps it compact for stowing.
have not tried to put the support to use yet, but was purchased for this summer use.I have never used one previously but will use it for sure.
Can not imagine camping in a hook up camping area without this product. Keeps the sewer hose at the proper angle so that tanks drain completely with ease and no sags that would trap waste. Have been using for some time now and have had no problems at all!
I had 20 ft before the sewer connect and this unit supported it all the way with room to spare. Light weight and easy to snap back and store.
I love that this sewer hose support is nice and compact.  It is really easy to carry this around and stores easily in my trailer!
Does just what is says it will do.  It makes filling the fresh water tank less messy, simple as that.
replaced rubber seal so not to get wet. all in all not to bad. a little better made would 't hurt. I would pay for more for better!!!!!!!
This nozzle is an exact replacement for the one I have used for 10 years. The old one got tired, but this one is as good as the original
Makes filling your tank a lot easier and less guessing.
It is a shutoff, does what it is supposed to. Camco 40003 RV Water Tank Filler with Shutoff Valve.  would buy again
bought for my older RV and works like a champ..it is plastic and seems solid..no con 's noted thus far;;;
Works as advertised in that it allowed my fresh water tank to 'breath' as I filled it to compacity.Before I would get air bubble blow back but not any more.
attach, turn on water, and stuff into filler.  its not a modern marvel or a super high quality piece but it does the job and you dont have to hold the hose there manually for 5 minutes or more while you top up the fresh tanks.
I got one of these initially so I could shut off the water at the hose end instead of at the faucet. It works great for that but the long tube also allows me to just slide it into the fill nozzle on my fifth wheel and leave it while it fills instead of having to hold it in place like I had to do with the hose. I would highly recommend.
...that the clear hose may come disconnected from the yellow fitting and fall right down into my fw tank.  It hasn't happened yet, but it surely could.  I'm very careful when I use it to inspect the tightness of that (friction) connection.  When it becomes weak, I'll replace it.Hopefully by then, one of my fw hoses will have sprung a leak, and I could just cut off a foot on the female side of the hose and use that!
Pros:Light weightLength is goodBias cut on the end is a great feature.Cons:Valve does not completely shut off water flow.Takes some serious pressure to turn off valve.This makes filling my RV potable water tank so much easier. Once it is full, I can shut off the water at the filler tube, rather than having to run back to the spigot. It also prevents excessive back flow.
If you RV, you want one of these. We never use the fresh water tanks in our RV for drinking (we buy bottled water for that), but for washing dishes, bathing, and other purposes, we do. So having clean water is still important.While no inexpensive filter will provide 100% clean safe drinking water, at least these filters get rid of most of the gunk that might clog up your water system.
I use this filter to fill up my 45 gallon water tank as well as using it inline on the city water connection.  That way I'm assured fresh, clean water if I'm dry-camping or at a FHU campsite!  Sometimes I go the extra distance to fill up a couple of Britta Water Filter bottles and put them in the fridge for cold, fresh water!
we drink water from our RV faucets.  Never knowing what you will get a camp grounds, this levels the playing fields.  we have never had  a bad experience with water taste or smell in the past 3 yrs.  we have been all over the US camping.  i replace it annually.
This Camco water filter works well on our pop-up camper and did make a noticeable difference in the taste of the water at the campground we stayed at. We forgot to replace our old filter and had to use the water straight out of the hookup on the first night, but picked up this filter at a local big box the next day. There was a marked improvement in the taste of the water when using this filter.We will replace this filter at the end of the season with a new one.Recommended!CFH
It works well with our rv and the attention spring keeps the water hose from kinking.  A person should replace their filter every year.Make sure you buy a water reducer on your rv, I have see people NOT USE a water reducer & the pressure in a camp ground can be as high as 65lbs and/or higher, an rv can only take 30 to 35lbs.Good Luck
I bought this because some reviewers said it cleaned up water for pressure washing . I found it restricted flow to much . My fault for buying it for a non recommended application . I have very hard water and a spigot that is unfiltered from my well . Put this on it and use that to hand water my plants . Works ok for that as the lower flow is no big deal when filling up the plant watering jug . Gave it a four and thought about a 3 because of how much it slowed down flow . Every time it is utilized it takes a while to get consistent flow and it is at about 1/2 the normal rate out of my well which is in the specs required for flow and pressure . it is my  belief this could be a issue  in the proper application also . Make a note that a $9 pressure regulator is suggested when RVing and not knowing the pressure of the systems one is connecting too . You will know if you needed one your hose will  burst . Good hoses are not cheap either and all us older individuals know it is worth having a good one that bends and coils easily  in any  weather .Note flow improved with use rather quickly . Once you get all the air pockets out this works well . Worth trying again for the pressure washer , will comment later after buying a second one to try ! This is the one to buy with the flexible extension .
No more water spots after rinsing my cars, and it seems the wax I use lasts longer.  I guess the chlorine and other nasty stuff in our tap water does more than spot, it seems to have an affect on your was.  Try these and see the visual difference.
Used this to help take the bite (and particulates) off of city water while camping all over the eastern/southern US this past summer.  Replace each season (these don't store well after being used for a few months).  Note: these do not help for water sources high in sulphur (well water), but they were never meant to.
Received yesterday. Checked it out thoroughly and appears to be well made and for me, it's a great price. That said, Let me see how many trips I get out of it before I go all in on this. If I get a full season - i.e., I don't have to order another one until this time next year - then I'll stand by my rating. If I have to order another one sooner - well - I'll be back to rate accordingly.
I spend about 10 solid weeks a year during the summer on the road with our family of 6 people. For years I have bought one of these before each season. We get an entire summer out  of one of these and I have never been let down by bad tasting water. Why spend a lot when this filter does what you need.I have used these filters for about 12 years and they are the best for the money. They really last a few months of constant use.I mounted this water filter in line inside trailer where I was able to cut main line in and added hose fittings to accomadate the filter ( most water lines in are a hose material untill they tie into pex tubing so this was easy to do with basic hose fittings ((if its easy to get to as mine is)).Doing it this way I dont need to mess with the filter everytime I setup and breakdown anymore outside trailer.I also add a 2nd one on the cold water side of the main kitchen sink. Pex tubing is what the trailer has as water piping as do most RV these days. I added filter to the pex piping using pex hose fitting as well to accomadate the filter. They sell the filters in 2 packs for about 24.00 so for me its way less exspensive installing these 2 great filters and not worrying about clean water all summer. End of season I simply unscrew the old filter and put in new ones in 5 min. We used to do the type facuet filters along with this filter outside trailer, but that gets old after awhile turning it on and off.Happy Rv Trails
Great value and great water filter
Campground water is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get.  We filter the water going into the trailer and play it safe.  This filter works very well.
it works as advertised and is keeping the hard water stains off of the shower. it says good for 1 season so i am not sure how long that is. we shall see.
I don't know what the water is like in all the campgrounds we go to, and don't want to have to check the water! Having this attached to the water supply is just plain common sense!
Great .........
I found washing cars at home in Florida did not give the same results as California Bay Area water. Too much spoting and white residue left.Saw a review where some one else used this filter for improving car wash water so I bought this filter.PROGreat looking product for the costGret looking packagingProduct screw thread fit water tight to water source and hoseAfter a few gallons the water comes out clear and works well for washing a car and rinsing it offCONWater flow a first was about 60% of normal due I assume to flow restrictionWater flow after a few more minutes and less than 5 gallons was reduced to 10% of normalThe reduced flow could barely remove the car wash soapFirst few gallons had a lot of black, I assume carbon, color to the water that became clean and clear water as seen in the bucketNote: I did verify the high flow direction as the lable showed. I may try to upload photos later.OverallFor Florida hose water in the space coast area and used for car wash this is not a good product. For a motorcycle or small product okay.For other uses I have no ideaWould not buy again
Just started RVing and decided I should have one of these in the water line just in case.  It fits and connects well.  If it gets rid of one bad thing that is great for me.
Use this when washing your car, glass will come out much more clear, and no more water marks or swirl marks.
Wife want even travel with out one. Use it everywhere we go. Save the end caps and re-install and keep it clean. Easy to order and delivered in a few days
I bought this for my new 5th Wheel RV. Never leave home without it. Water comes from lakes. Fish live and poop in lakes. Don't ever trust water from faucets when camping.
This filter works great!  It doesn't appear to reduce the flow and once the loose charcoal/carbon is purged from the filter, the water was clean and tasted fine.  Before hooking it up to your camper, make sure that you hook it up to a hose and purge all of the loose particulate matter from the filter or else you will have to purge a bunch of carbon from your camper plumbing system.
I wasn't sure what type of water filtration to get but decided on this one for the brand, reviews, design and cost.  It connects easily and securely.  I believe it helps, but honestly I haven't done a &#34;taste test&#34; of a campground's water with and without the filter (maybe I should...?).  I also use this to tank up our onboard water storage when I am using it.  NOTE:  You will want to run water through the filter for several minutes before hooking it up to clear out the carbon dust.  It looks disconcerting to see blackish water coming out of the filter until you realize that it is simply from the unused carbon.  Although I've only had this a week, I've used it while camping already.  You can order this with confidence!
Seems to be a good product but does not remove all the odors associated with the water. It wasn't advertised to take out all the odor,just greatly reduce them.  We had some odors from water in a local campground. No taste issues so I think that was o.k and the odor wasn't all that bad but don't think it will take out all odors competely.
The RV park that I have set up in has terrible water both smell and taste. I am used to bottle water so the drinking was not as important to me but the smell had to go. This has worked like a dream.
These filters work very well in eliminating some of the strange tastes from certan water sources.  It's difficult to judge how long to use it before replacing it, but it does work.  The Flexible Hose Protector is a piece of junk - it doesn't last that long and is difficult to use.
Although I bought expensive potable water hoses for my motorhome and gave them a good rinsing before connecting them, I still detected that distinctive "hose taste" in my RV's water.  Installing this filter between the hose and my RV eliminated that taste.  It also filters out odd odors and tastes that I encounter with some campground water.  When there are high chlorine levels in the water, this filter won't get rid of all of it but it does knock it down.  Be sure to rinse the filter for about one minute before connecting it to your RV for the first time or you'll get black carbon powder in your water.  The included flexible hose protector works perfectly; enabling me to connect the filter directly to my RV water inlet without the need for any other fittings, allowing me to close and lock the access door.After using one of these filters for about a year, I would not consider ever connecting my motorhome to any water supply without having this filter on-line.
This really helps but isn't perfect. I have used this for washing my car. Since a low flow rate is best for efficiency, I use a pressure washer. My pressure washer is rated at 1.8 gallons per minute. That flow rate is below the recommended maximum rate easily. I definitely wipe the Windows. If I don't dry my car it does have some spots. I might not be getting all the soap off, but I do think it's the filter. Here's a tip for you. When your first filter starts to show signs of inefficiency, screw your next filter into it but in 2nd place. Even if your older filter is only getting half of the minerals, that's half of as much going into the fresh filter. When you eventually start to see more spots than the norm, take the oldest filter off and add your new filter after the flow of the filter that's been there. I hope you got my explanation. Happy car washing!
This filter is a must have if you want to have water that is clean and as pure as your home filtered water. I believe that by using this filter the water that we will get from the different campsights will be as close to home aas possible. Easy to use and store a must have for those who are concerned about what they drink.
Put this on the RV and all the iron and chlorine and other unwanted minerals are neutralized. We keep spares on every trip.
Does what it's supposed to.  I ran into problems with leaks at either ends.  The threaded ends are plastic and can be stripped out.  Note - this filter is supposed to be replaced every so often.  Because of the possibility of leaks, once you get it connected to the long and short hoses you'll want to keep it connected.
i use this in addition to my built-in RV water filter.  we used it to fill our freshwater tank at home so that we had familiar and clean water at the RV park.  couldn't tell the difference between &#34;RV&#34; water and drinking from home faucet.  CAUTION: be sure to rinse out the carbon before using it--squirt water through the filter and you'll see lots of carbon residue... continue until the water is clear (only a few seconds) and then you're good to go.
The water coming our of this filter feels almost as good as a home water softener. It will help prevent sediment buildup in your fresh tank. Run it for a minute or two before the first use to flush the carbon dust. I cant comment on taste as I bring bottled drinking water but I have used the water for cooking with excellent results.
Good in line carbon filter. Remember to flush it good prior to use in order to get the fines rinsed out. Woerks as advertised to clean up not so great water that is found in some campgrounds.AAA+++
Don't go RV'ing without one of these.  Many campgrounds use well water and it often tastes bad.  This filter elliminates that and gives you tasty, drinkable water at every facet.  Connect this directly to your water pressure regulator, and then to the hose, so your rv hose does not accumulate the nasty water tastes as well.  Don't forget to use it when you fill your fresh water tank as well...
Used this filter when filling our new RV's fresh water tank prior to heading out on a boondocking adventure. Our local water is fairly hard, we noticed much improved in taste and haven't seen hard water deposits after a couple of uses. So far so good.
We have used this product many times before and were very happy with the product.Never had no other issues with this product.
Have used this filter for almost a year now and will be replacing it in the next few weeks. Really don't know how you can tell if it is used up or not, but we're just going to replace it every year until we find out something different. Having said that we can attest that there have not been any illness's, bad tastes or smells from our water when we've been hooked up to a park's water supply. Have been in RV Resorts to overnight spaces and so far everything has been fine.
A water filter is a very simply but essential device when you are RV'ing. Water quality tends to vary widlely from site to site. Having a filter helps with removing particulate matter and does improve the taste and smell of well water. This one is very well made, does not leak at either end and is easy to store when not in use.I tend to change the filter with each season of use.
Used this for the first time this summer, will buy more for next year. Easy to connect to the trailer and hose bib.
This is a good value and it's useful.  It's a one time set up and then hopefully it will help get the job done over and over.  I've purchased two of these.  one for a Pop UP camper I've owned since 2008 and the other for an Airstream camper we acquired in July.  For winterizing I also use the  Camco 36143 RV Blow Out Plug with Brass Quick Connect (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002XL2IEA/ref=oh_details_o00_s01_i01) also available through Amazon Prime.  These to gadgets make winterizing much easier.
I purchased this to add the antifreeze to my camper. I found it easier to remove the fill tube nozzle under the cabinet and dump right into the tank. I bought this because I thought I needed it to flush my new camper. I didn't use it at all, because the way the pump lines were hooked up. It wouldn't have worked anyways. Might be ok for older campers, just not new ones.
Hooking up this valve will make winterizing a recreation vehicle. I place the tread tape on the water pump (facing the valve), and the threads that will connect the water tank and the pump. The plastic grey connector is easier to connect to pump first the tighten it down with a wrench. Now attach the valve to the pump by spinning the valve until tight and snug it up with tools. now attach hose from tank to valve until it is tight. I left the metal cap on until I need to winterize the camper again, but you can leave the hose on the by-pass valve if you likeand curl it up next to the pump. Just make sure you can read the wording on the valve for position it is in. Now you are ready to winterize the pipes at anytime you want. Before it took me about 1 hour to winterize a camper. This was switching the hose from the water tank to a hose to a gallon of RV anti-freeze. Since it took me 15 minutes to install, now the amount of time it will take to winterize my camper will be 5 minutes and no more banged up hands from working in a small area. That is the time to turn the valve and run a gallon of rv anti-freeze thru the system and resetting valve back to water tank.
The valve looks good but I ended up returning it as it wouldnt work for the way I needed to hook this into my RV's water system. Application was for a 2012 Keystone Cougar 327RES.
i thought i would winterize my camper instead of paying someone big bucks.  simple to install and even easier to winterize.
If you have a RV, trailer or any unit that has a waterpump in it, this is a must!!!!!!. The 2 way toggle that attaches to the input side of pump. You Then switch the toggle valve off the fresh water tank toward hose and pull RV antifreeze directly from the gallon bottle you buy at store for storing you unit before the winter. Simple follow install instructions that comes with package ( very easy to do for almost anyone)Here is how I do my units***Once installed simply move valve to direction of antifreeze hose. Make sure all facets are off before starting anything, turn on water pump switch in RV unit and I go to each cold water side of facuet**** till water/antifreeze comes out pink .....I do all cold side facets first.NOTE*You must ((((empty)))) hot water tank before storage every season or if water freezes in water tank or it will crack your 6 gallon tank and make you replace hotwater unit.Once that is complete I allow just enough antifreeze to flow to tank and out of open plug where I see pink color and quickly shut off pump. Then I turn off Hot water by- pass switch most RVS and trailers have them standard past 10 years. If you do not have one on your unit they can be installed.( if not I would have one installed Amazon sells that kit as well or you can just run enough antifreeze into tank to cover bottom where left over water will lie and freeze)Once BY-pass to hotwater tank is switched over, then I go to each hot water facuet until The water comes through pink. Do toilets, showers even outside shower if you have one on unit. I use about 1 to 2 gallons of RV antifreeze a season(ABOUT $10.00 worth to insure no frozen water lines, a small price to pay) I always allow enough antifreeze to come out of facuets to make sure the traps in drains are filled with antifreeze to cover them as well. Whole project to winterize your unit will take under 15min.!!! Its very easy for most to do and you will know its done fully by doing it yourself.
Took some work to install because my RV had non-standard fittings which is by no means Camco's fault.  Once installed, works great and makes the whole winterizing routine tons easier.
Not much to say, it either works or it doesn't.... this product is not rocket science and does what it claims.
New at RVing and living in Colorado this is a very necessary item I was told to have for winterizing RV. Very easy to connect depending on access to water pump. Once connected it makes winterizing very easy from now on. Forget trying to make your own. For the price it would be hard to bet it.
I used this in my KZ Spree 19' travel trailer to winterize the plumbing myself.The instructions are clear, the fittings are correct and fit well with no leaks.It took me no more than 15 minutes to install this kit, which is then left in place for next year saving even more time and money, and flush the plumbing with three gallons of anti-freeze.Without this kit, it would have cost twice as much to assemble my own set-up at home-depot, and taken twice as long. This is reasonably priced, shipped quickly, and is a much better alternative then filling your freshwater supply with many more gallons of coolant.Bottom line. It works well, doesn't leak, and saves time and money.
Easy installation and works as advertised. I see a lot of complaints about the hose being to short but for me it was on the money. I guess there would be instances that you'd need a longer hose but you know you gotta work with what you got. I moved the container closer...
This winterizing kit was delivered promptly and is a good quality product. It installed easily and quickly without any special tools. I opted to use pipe dope on the the plastic fittings since that's what was used originally on the trailer. Instructions were spot on.
This kit makes it super easy to winterize your camper. This 3 way valve will allow you to easily the pump pull from the gallons of pink RV antifreeze. When spring comes around you just need to turn the valve so it pulls from your fresh water tank and flush out the lines with fresh water.
simple to install and of high quality believe it or not the fittings and valves are very good.  makes winterizing a one man snap!!!!!
Simple to install and easy to use. Our newest camper didnthave an antifreeze pickup.  This installed in about 10 mins and I have used winterize the camper 3 times so far, with no problems
Excellent product.  Does exactly as it's supposed to.  Just don't be a moron like I was and pay attention to the direction of the arrows and think about how the water will get sucked from the bottle.  I had mine connected backwards for about 30 minutes until I figured out why it was not sucking anything from the anti-freeze bottle.  Once I corrected my mistake, it worked like a charm.  Definitely a must-have for any rv'er especially one that lives in the north.
Last year we installed this kit before winter and this year it took longer to move stuff around inside the camper to get access to the pump and heater bypass than it took to connect an pump anti-freeze through the pipes.  The other benefit is we use about 4 litres of anti-freeze to flush the pipes and do not have to put any into the holding tank.
I haven't had these on long enough to say they will definitely last for years, but they feel like they will.  All three of my originals have cracked in the two years we've had our trailer, starting at year one and the third one just recently.  When replacing I can feel the difference from the old ones and these is huge, these just feel much thicker and stronger.  The price difference really isn't much, I don't see any reason to buy the cheapies at all.  If you haven't done it before, installation on these types of lids is very easy.  If you have easy roof access it's a piece of cake, will just take a couple minutes.  I climbed on the roof for the first one, the second one I just reached up thru the opening and changed the lids.  It took a few minutes longer that way, had to feel my way thru it, but it was still pretty easy.  The only thing you have to do on the outside is align the slot on the lid so you can slide it over the metal lip on the frame.  The rest is under the lid where you can see.EDIT: I have a forest river trailer, 2009.  These fit perfectly.  I have three vent lids, all 3 originals were replaced within the two years but first was with a standard, before I knew about these.  That one I just replaced again with one of these.  It was so brittle it practically came apart in my hands.  The other two are these and they still feel strong.
Fit great and looks so much better than the cracked, wasp infested cover that let all the snow and rain in.I don't mind repairing things for people, but lets do it before there is other damage.
This was bought as a replacement for my RV and it was very easy to install, great price and very durable. Thank you!
I agonized over buying this cover as I wasn't sure it fit. When I recieved it I was relieved that it worked just fine. It took some fiddling to install it, but eventually I got it on. Not we will see if it is unbreakable or not. The original vent cover was literally shredded by hail.
Compared to other vent covers n the market this one's the thickest one we've ever bought. With time all plastics succumb to the destructive nature of UV radiation. The roof-top of an RV is subjected to unrelenting sun and we've had several vent covers crumble and blow away  in a strong wind storms leaving the trailer interior below subject to moisture.Polycarbonate is another of many plastic compounds, and also subject to UV damage but the thickness of these covers indicates that they will likely last far longer than past covers.Diminished light transmission - The thickness of these covers does limit the opacity/light transmission of these covers relative to thinner white covers so be prepared for that.Fit in a standard RV/Trailer rooftop vent was good.
Good quality R.V. water heater drain valve. Brass construction with a steel finger tip handle built in. A vital component when winterizing or just performing general maintenance. Teflon tape will seal threads upon install. Great replacement for older leaking or rusty valves.
In the past I have used nylon plugs but they are difficult to remove over time.  The drain valve I purchased is installed semi permanently and the drain cock only needs to opened to winterize the water heater.
Seemed like a good idea, but it leaked incessantly no matter how much I tightened even with Teflon tape on the threads.  I returned it.
Just what it is - brass drain plug.  Normal quality as you would buy in a hardware store if you could find this configuration for this specific purpose.
I received the valve on time and it was very well packaged. I have installed the valve and it works very well on my RV hot water tank.
You have to have this. Mounts most typically on the outside of the RV.. Just tilt the outside door/vent open and Olsen the peacock valve. No tools required!  Very cool!
It does work as advertized, only small criticism is that it drains painfully slowly, even with a little air pressure fed into the system but it's still easier than removing the drain plug completely since mine's a pain to reach.
This drain works good but is starting to corrode. It really should be made from stainless steel or even plastic.
Fits perfect, operates fine, it is slow to drain but it's a lot easier since you can open it by hand and before the plug needed a socket and I was always worried about loosing the plug and had to jump back when removing it to keep from getting wet.  I know not much of an improvment but the fact I don't have to dig the socket and ratchet out of the tool box made it worth it to me.
This makes draining you water heater a breeze compared to removing plugs etc.  Pretty simple to use and does the trick.
If you have a camper water heater like mine its almost impossible to get a wrench on the drain plug.  This solves the problem.
Everytime I go to empty the hot water tank on my RV, I always say, "I'm gonna get me the plug w/the petcock in it. Well, one day while on Amazon, I saw this and ordered it before I forgot to. Works as advertised.
No matter how little or how much plummers tape I used this unit would not seal.  And the butterfly valve metal bends easily.  Would not recommend.  I ended up putting the original plastic plug back in.  DIsappointed.
I bought this valve with high hopes of simplifying the regular draining of our 6-gal Atwood RV water heater, as removal of the standard nylon plug is a pain due to its location.  If you are looking to purchase this product under the same pretense, let me save you the time -- in my case, the better part of an afternoon.First, a quick explanation of how the valve works -- there are actually three components at play: 1) the large diameter plug that screws into the water heater, 2) a secondary plug that screws into the first, and 3) the actual valve which you open and close to drain the water.  I believe the intent of this design is to allow &#34;regular&#34; draining of the water heater with the last/smallest valve, while removal of the medium nut could be used perhaps at the end of the season to allow more sediment and debris to exit the tank quickly (due to the larger diameter).  Sidenote: opening the actual valve (the smallest component) drains the tank very, very slowly, and sometimes only at a trickle if you can't get air behind the water -- in my case, I had to open the pressure relief valve (in addition to all faucets) to produce an acceptable drain rate.While the valve piece never had any issues with leaking, the other components did.  I tried screwing in these nuts with and without Teflon tape, and at various depths.  No matter what the combination, there was always a small leak coming from either of these pieces.  There appeared to be no way to practically stop the leaking.  I also tried wrapping the nuts with an excess of Teflon tape (5+ wraps), to no avail.I gave up after about 2-3 hours of tinkering, returned the valve to Amazon, and ended up sticking with the standard nylon plug.  Hint: Sears sells a 15/16 offset wrench that is perfect for removing these plugs.
This valve is exactly what I needed to make draining the hot water tank in my RV a breeze. Unfortunately, it arrived with a quality control problem - the T-handle was not properly crimped onto the valve shaft. The first time I tried to use the valve, the handle came right off in my hand. Rather than fool aroung with the nuisance of returning it, I reworked the crimp with a hammer & punch. I was able to make it secure enough that I can use the valve without the handle coming loose. Hopefully, it will not work loose & be lost due to vibrations on the road.
Purchased this insert to replace some of the insert that had cracked and was badly weathered. It is a large roll, but I found it to be very stiff and difficult to install unless nested up.  I have been repairing RV's professionally for more than 20 years, and have never found any trim insert this hard to work with. It may be just an old batch, but still not the standard I am accustomed to from Camco.
Good quality vinyl trim, better than the original.  Note the 1 in. trim fits corner or roof trim. Most door and some window trim requires 3/4 in. trim. Shipping was as expected Amazon Prime (2 days).
The inserts work very good for what I did use of the roll.  I did replace the inserts on my camper.  The inserts take a beating with the weather and fade over time.  Easy installation and make the unit look much better.  Would purchase again if needed.
It's white vinyl insert and it works. It's a decent quality and flexible enough to feed into the track easily on a warm day. I say this because when trying to install it here in Minnesota in November it's a bit stiff to work with unless it's warm (but then so am I) so make sure you replace it in warmer weather or warm the tape with a blow dryer as you work.
Easily flexible, not difficult to work into the slotted channel. Just set one side and work the other as you go across - shouldn't be any need for tools to insert this unless you have screws holding the channel that were not centered and flat in the channel.  If that's the case, you'll want to use a plastic type tool to avoid puncturing the vinyl.
You never know when you might need a first aid kit for your car. I just never knew what kinds of things I should have in it. After buying this, I feel like I could make my own first aid kits for auto in the future. It's so much cheaper to do it that way.
After looking online at &#34;ready-made&#34; emergency auto kits, I made up emergency bags of my own for my kids' trunks, just in case the MN roads got the best of them.  The pre-made kits were either too expensive and filled with the cheapest junk, or they just didn't have an intelligent assortment of things I know people need (from experience).  Many of those kits were labeled by AAA.  So, strangely when I went looking for a first aid kit with something more than band-aids and rubber gloves (who really needs those, anyway?), I found this, complete with gauze and tape and stuff you need in the real-world if you get stuck, stranded, or hurt.  I wanted to go a little bigger with other things like peroxide and cold compress, but it was cheaper to buy those separately and just go with this kit.
I bought these as emergency First Aid kits for the cars in my family. I have not had a chance to try them yet. I hope I never have to. I added some more Triple antibiotic packs and more band aid sizes. I also added individually packed aspirins,
This is a good little starter kit for the glove box or something similar. Has a good amount to take care of little cuts and scrapes.
My intention was to have a minimal first aid kit for the car.  This little pack is reasonably well constructed, small, and even has belt loops (that I'll never use, but a great thought).  It's not going to handle major trauma, but for the occassional bandage, insect sting, wound cleaning, or field dressing, it's what you need.  There's enough extra room in the case to add two or three more items to personalize the assortment.  The contents are packaged in 3 mini zip-lock baggies, and there are common refills available for it all.
works well, easy to store...light weight and the string makes pulling it out from my wheels easier. I purchased 4 of these thinking I needed them for front and back wheels, but really only needed them for either front or back use at one time...still... I have an extra set just in case I ever leave them somewhere by accident.
The wheel chocks arrived to day and look great.  They appear to be very sturdy and well made.  I have a manual transmission car, and have been needing chocks to keep the car from rolling while doing routine maintenance.  I purchased two...one kept in the trunk of my car for emergency use, and one for the garage.
Very heavy duty plastic and solid construction.  These work as advertised (using on a 16 foot 2700 pound travel trailer with 24&#34; tires).
ok, but very light weight
First off, my fault for not realizing these are sold in single units and not in pairs. That being said, I'm glad I didn't buy a second one, as these are hard plastic and will slide easily and not take hold unless you put a rubber mat under it. The good news is, you can pick up a pair of real rubber chocks at Harbor Freight for less than 20 bucks which work great.
Very nice sturdy chock with a convenient synthetic leash.  Looks just like the one pictured.  I purchased two.  The price is for one each.  The size is just right for compact vehicles such as a Ford Ranger or other small Truck or Car with Stock Tires.
Yes, these are wheel chocks.  They're not fancy, but they will hold a round piece of rubber just fine.
Strings are convenient to pull them out. They're made of thick solid plastic, they're strong. They're smaller than I expected, they're even smallish on my jet ski trailer, I'm not sure I'd trust them with a full size vehicle on any significant grade.
This chock does the job. It is light weight and very durable. We use it to assure that our race trailer doesn't move after we disconnect it from the tow vehicle. Good pricing and availability.
I only had a set of small metal chocks that came with the floor jack I have so I went with a chock with a little more size. I bought these and am very happy with them. A nice bright red/orange color for visibility, comes with a small rope loop to hang on the wall or pull out from tire placement and sturdy construction. It has rows of ridges to hold against the tire and on the bottom to prevent slipping. I'm sure the bottom ridges will work on soft surfaces but I'll have to wait until I use them to see if they slip or not on concrete / hard surfaces. I recommend this product.
I kind of like the strong on the beck of these wheel chocks. Theya re portable and travel well. I use these to chock minivans and suvs when I help my family to preventative maintenance on their vehicles for oil changes, brake pad changes, etc. They dont feel as flimsy as those cheap black ones youd get from wal Mart. These feel more durable and well built, yet lightweight.
Sure wish they had these in the military verses the wooden ones we had.This plastic Chock is just as effective and so much easier to pull out use and put away.  The String makes it easy to pull away from your wheel.  And they don't add to much weight to your load
I bought this wheel chock to prevent my truck from slipping down an icy roadway during freezing weather at my mountain cabin.  I have to park on the road above my cabin during inclement weather because my driveway is too iced up to drive on.  This roadway has an incline and in the past,  my truck slid backwards on the ice after putting the truck in park and setting the parking brake.  I put this wheel chock behind the rear tire and it keeps my truck from sliding on the ice.  The nice thing about the strap on the wheel is the wheel chock usually freezes to the road during the night and I can pull it loose when I need to remove the chock.This chock is expensive, but worth the extra expense and I am going to order another one so both wheels are chocked
Using these to chock our travel trailer, a 30-footer.  Works just fine, and the straps make it easy to remove when preparing to go.  Would definitely purchase again.
These are good. Not necessarily better than other wheel chock. Honestly a wheel chock is a wheel chock. However, the cord makes all the difference. When you kick these up under the tires and then jack a car the chocks wedge up under there really tight. When the car comes down the chocks need some help to come out. Yank the cord and you're done. I also like having a bright color chock so I don't forget they are there. Don't buy black ones. They'll blend in with the tires you're likely to forget. These are very noticeable. The chock itself is on par with others, but the features (cord and color) are what make it stand out.
If you plan to use wheel chocks frequently, more than 2 or 3 times per year, you should consider investing in a better (more expensive) set. But, if you only need a set of chocks to occasionally do some DIY on your vehicle, these will fit the bill nicely and will not empty your wallet.They are made of hard plastic. They are not rubber, so be aware of that when you decide. However, I have used them several times to change wheels on my vehicles, and they work just fine. The little cord on them is not of much use, except for carrying them. You'll never yank them out from under a wheel (when pinched) with this little cord. A good hammer tap or kick usually does the trick.One complaint I have is that there is no "grip side" to these chocks. They are smooth plastic on all sides. There are moulded ribs on the flat side, but if you are working on a smooth surface, like a garage floor, they will not grip at all. So it is important to ensure they are tightly wedged. Some strips of rubber on the bottom surface would have been nice.Overall, they work fine if you don't plan to put them to hard routine work.
these are great! i love that it has the string to remove. I only bought on set and ended up buying a differ set for the other side of my trailer and these work much better then my other set. i am going to buy another set of these.
I'm hoping the quality holds up as they appear plastic and my trailer weighs  over 5000lbs and sits on a small incline.  I will correct my review if they don't work but they were a good price.
Nice durable plastic chock. Not much more to say other than it is effective at what it is supposed to do. I do have a small concern that the string will snap at some point, however.
Does a great job at keeping the wheels chocked on all types of surfaces. Very pleased so far. A lot better than using 2x4's.
I love this chock. I have used two now for four travel trailer treks. They do the job and are easy to store. I like the red color because that allows me to easily find them in my trailer storage compartment...under all of the other gear I haul around.
They work just great for what I want.  I have two sets of them that I use on my travel trailer.  Will buy two more sets when the others that I use wear out.
Works great IF you have a surface that will give some friction, like concrete or asphalt.  Get two, tie them together about 18&#34; apart.  Harder to lose AND you get to look like one of those guys at the airport pre-flighting a plane ;-} !
These work but they are now the great quality, but good for the price pay. I would spend a little more and get better quality.
It does just what it needs to do. It keeps my trailer from taking off down the road and wrecking everything in its path.
Purchased on Amazon after reviewing prices and shipping on other sites as Amazon had best price as usual!Item works well to keep my utility trailer from slipping down the driveway. Made of plastic but is quite strong. I know because I forgot to remove it when starting to drive off and noticed I was having problems. Quickly remembering the wheel block I thought it would be ruined but to my surprise looked not the worse for wear. Good little block for a good price.
These are large enough for all tires and stay put until you yank them out.  They will do the job.
I bought a pair and use these regularly when working on our vehicles. I do virtually all our car maintenance and repairs now except tire balance and wheel alignment, I leave that for the big guys.These chocks keep a good grip even on a concrete driveway. Lightweight, easy to store, fairly easy to pull away from the tires. Overall very pleased and would recommend.
First off, a million thanks to the folks who posted before me. It helped me make my choice. There are a lot of budget priced chocks out there and these are not gimmicky and weird in your hands when you hold them. Yes, plastic -- and I would have preferred rubber. HOWEVER, these are heavy gauge and have nice wide ribs underneath that do grab the ground. I am one of those guys doing my work in a home garage, with the smooth concrete -- risky as far as sliding. These don't slide. I will be using them to secure my VW when jacking it up, and it's a good guess that these will be a tad more safe than my original "rock and a brick" arrangement! I went to the big Auto parts chain store (you know who I mean) and in addition to the rude thug who "assisted me" , I found their wheel chocks to be totally unacceptable. I wouldn't support a 10 speed BIKE on those things -- and neither should you. Shop from home and spare yourself the Neanderthal experience at the store. Great chocks. I'm safer now.
It's red, it works, and it is hard not to see it when preparing to leave the campsite.  Have used the yellow ones for decades, but the red ones are definately much more eye catching and hard to forget to pull them.
Easy to put under a tire. The cord makes it easier pull from under the tire when you are ready to move on. smaller and cleaner than using wood blocks.
You just don't expect these to be made of hard plastic and so small.  But then you look at the price and kick yourself for expecting more.  They work, but I highly doubt they'll still be around in 10 years.
I just bought it in case of an emergency if I  have a flat tire.. I haven't used it, but I think it will work fine .
Heavy duty chock and performed as expected. These were also $1-2 cheaper than any store in my area selling the same product.
Very good quality, light weight and built to last. What's not to like? Place them on both sides of your tire(s) and kick them in tight with your heel. "That trailer ain't moving". Worth the money and I am very satisfied.
This is an OK replacement for the one that broke on my RV. That said, why hasn't anyone built one with a raised handle on it for easy on/off application? Hey, I think I just invented something!!!  I'm headed to the Shark Tank to get Damian and Mr. Wonderful to buy to in!!!
What can I say about a cap.  It works fine.  Fits great.  No issues. Need more words but more of the same.
This is designed to work with the Valterra bayonet fitting on your Gray or Black water dump valve and it does just that...
Exactly what it should be. Fits fine. Stops leakage. No way to tell how long it will hold up but it is fine now.
One of the bayonets for my sewer connection broke off. This cap is of better quality than my original. The leash snapped right on where the old cap leash came from.
This is a replacement part for the last galley tank in my RV, the last on the rubber band broke and it was lost. Needed a replacement.Fit was perfect.
What can I say?  it is a replacement cap for the RV sewer connection.  I have not used the regular hose attachment, but I bought this one with it because the cost was not really any more and why not at least have the option.  Maybe someday I'll use it to backflush the black tank, but so far I've felt no need to.
This works great. Female can put it on and off. The water comes out great when your at a campground that only has gray water hookup.
Read some reviews on this before I purchased. Looks like on one of the reviews, someone bought the wrong one. I made sure I ordered the right one. There are 2 different styles. Now I can leave my gray valves opened to drain, while keeping the black valve closed. It was a great price too!
Nice tight fit on my camper van.  Since I have a composting toilet and don't use the black water tank, I leave this cap on all the time and use a 6' standard hose for the gray water.  Highly recommended.
After the cap that came with my RV busted its hooks, this is an improvement.  I like being able to unscrew the little cap to determine if there's been any unfortunate leakage from the main valves.  Valterra has a good reputation so I hope it will last longer than the previous no-name cap.
This appears to do what I intended.  It's not real complicated so I'm sure my grey water will flow out of the garden hose outlet, through a hose and out to some trees or sage brush where it will be usefull and not turn septic in the tank, and become a real hazzard!!
So had to get one for the new rv....With two grey tanks and one filling quickly and the galley tank filling slowly,I put this on the end of the twist on waste valve to protect it.
The cap works well as a cap, and it is great for hooking up a hose to drain the gray tank. I hate dragging out the big slinky sewer hose, and this cap allows me to just use a hose when that is appropriate.
handy. when you go to dump, connect the sewer hose to the dump and then hold the end under the cap. Slowly loosen the gardern hose cap. If either of your blade valves has leaked or been opened you will have some &#34;water&#34; here and you will catch it and drain it into your sewer hose instead of all over the ground in front of everyone at the dump station. Can also be used for backflushing if you're careful and use backflow preventer.
Not to much to say about a Termination Cap.  Since we have travel many miles over extended periods of time always try to carry back-up items...so that just in case something breaks down we don't have to try and find a store.  This cap is easy to store with our other "back-up" items.Valterra Products, Inc. T1020-1 3" Black Termination Cap with Bayonet Hook and Hose Thread Connection
Have not used this one yet but I think it is a good idea and happy to have it as a spare in the camper
Bought this for a spare ... but think I like it for permanent one and keep the other for a spare ... I like the fact you can just use a water hose it you want to drain the grey water ... much easier than the 3&#34; hose when and get it away from where your  waking and don't really need a 3&#34; hose ...
Our standard cap for the grey water tank broke one of the clasps so bought this one to replace the original one. Love the ability to attach a standard hose and flush the gray tank into the woods when primitive camping.
Bought this to replace a cap with a broken latch.  It fits nice and tight and you can use an old garden hose to drain the gray water.If you need a cap, buy this one.
This cap is just like the one that came with my trailer, except it has the hose cap.  I use it to easily hook a black hose & drain off my grey water while camping.
This is a nice cap to have if you just want to trickle drain your galley or gray water tank.
I've yet to use the garden hose connector for dumping grey water, but this is a good cap. It's a bit of a hassle and breakage worry when twisting it on with the additional protrusions of the hose and leash, so I'm subtracting a star. I do have a spare cap in case something on this one breaks.
Old motor home and grey cap was always a little loose for my liking. This coupled with new gate valve did the trick for me.
Purchased this to replace missing cap on RV.  Works as expectedbut would like to see bigger nubs or perhaps 2 wings to makethis a little easier to put on and remove.
The last time I drained my gray water tank on my trailer, I sort of cross threaded the cap and busted off on the the tabs, making the cap unusable.This is a great replacement and I like the fact that I can attach a hose to the cap to drain my gray water tank into a container, or if I am boondocking/dry camping, I can just run the hose away from my trailer to drain the sink water!
This battery works! I purchased it for a Coleman camping lantern I got in 2006. Don't throw out those lanterns folks, just replace the battery and you'll be good to go another 6-8 years!
I bought this battery for a lantern at my mountain cabin I need to keep charged when the power goes out.  I charged it to a full charge and tested the lantern and it will stay lite for over (8) hours which is longer than the original battery.  You just have to remember only to charge the battery until the green light comes and then unplug it.
I bought a nice air mattress pump from a reputable company. The instructions said only charged for a max of 4 hours. The battery only lasted about 4 times of use. After buying this one and replacing the old one it says right on the battery to do a constant charge. Now it works great and I keep it charged all the time
I own a number of Harbor Freight spotlights that take this size rectangular battery.  I've now replaced the original battery in two of my lights with this battery, and both new battery's work fine, put out a very bright light, hold a good charge, etc.
I bought an emergency power fail light at a big box store several years ago.  Recently it quit working and I traced the problem to the battery.  It was a small 6V lead acid, so instead of spending $30 for a new light I bought this battery for $10 from Amazon.  With the points from my Amazon Visa card it was free!  The new one fit perfectly and the light works again.  My home will have light when the power fails thanks to Amazon!
I always have about 3 packs of JB weld different places in my house because i have found it can be a very good problem fixer. Be sure to use it in applications where your safety will not be compromised. I have recently used it to fix my MTD lawn mower blade adapter. The adapter has a little notch a 1/4" thick that keeps the adapter and blade spinning on the engines crankshaft. after several years of use the notch sheared off, i used JB weld to put it back on with a small amount on the sheared part and a small long bead lengthwise on the sides. The mower is now back in action and saved me from buying a new adapter.
I don't have the time to write down all of the uses that this product can handle.  I know that it works for what I want it to do.  The down side is that it take 24 hours to fully cure.  Get some!  You will love it.  This price was cheaper than I could buy it locally at the Ace Hwr store
I've used the product once to seal metal banding that had been bent into a circle and spot welded together. It had separated at the seam and had a slight gap. I applied the J-B Weld and then used plastic zip ties to push the gap together while the J-B Weld cured overnight. I left for two days before taking off the zip ties holding it together. The J-B Weld has held the connection ever since.
Whether you are looking to patch up a hole, or even recreate an entire metal part without casting, JB Weld does it. I use this stuff for computers when I am modding and want a permanent bond. Just equal parts of each tube and a whole world of possibilities opens up!!
I have a broken expensive Bose head phone at its hinge after using few weeks. Tried to glue it with different crazy glue from Asia but it broke at the same place after few days. Finally I used this glue after reading review. It was made in USA. This time I am very satisfied because the glue holding very well. After drying the glue was harder than original plastic part on the head phone. The only little problem is the color of the glue is gray, not transparent after drying. But it was super strong and tough as an American. Highly recommended.
This is a item you need when some thing goes wrong and your glad you have it around. This works great for car repairs or around the house.
how can you not like JB weld products, easily mixed lasts a long time in the tubes even after opening.  I used this for a bunch of stuff all the way from filling small pits in steel to filling holes.
This is the best stuff on earth when you need to do a repair and cannot do a proper weld. It will also stick to most anything including plastics. It is strong and can be sanded, drilled, tapped, and machined once it is set up. A must for any shop or do-it-yourselfer.
holds even plastic parts with easy but you really do have to let it set over night otherwise you will risk it not bonding or curing correctly
I've used JB Weld for awhile now on various projects and have been happy with the product. I just bought some more to put in my survival bag, you never know when it might come in handy.
First time using JB weld. Its simple enough. Mix a pea sized amount of both tubes together. Place the mixed compound on the spot you wish to weld together. Wait...done!Worked on the aluminum manifold that had a small crack from an over tightened, too large bolt. Its solid! Even though that part of the engine reaches extremely high heat, the JB weld, so far, has had no trouble coping.
I love JB Weld and use it probably once a month.  Some recent projects where I've used JB Weld is to repair a set of my wife's ear rings, my daughter's music box with little ballerina dancers (one of which broke off), and my son's toy motorcycle.  The most money saving repair I've done with this is to adhere the plastic anti-lock break sensor into the middle of the hub of the back wheel on my 2003 Toyota Sienna--I would have needed to replace the entire hub and that would have cost $300+ probably just for parts!  It needed to be able to take extreme temperatures and JB Weld did the trick.To apply, I use a scrap piece of cardboard to mix it on, I split off a piece of shim (or a popsicle stick would work too) to use as a stir stick and applicator, and fix away.
Perfect for smaller jobs and not wasting this quality epoxy. I buy them in qty. of 4 or more as some projects need a second tube or more. Ugly so never use this for a finish but will sand and paint.
i accidently broke a ceiling fan arm by hitting the fan blade with a towel while the fan was on. after visiting several stores and the internet i was unsucessful in obtaining a replacement arm. i decided to try and repair this metal arm with j-b weld and to my surprize it worked perfectly. this stuff is so light that it didn't even cause the fan blade to be off balance. this stuff really works unlike most of the junk on infomercials.
I use JB Weld for everything and it rarely if ever disappoints.I had a problem with people stealing the mirrors off one of my motorcycles, so I JB Welded them to the bars.  Fixed!I had a lamp harp with a broken threaded fitting, so I JB Welded it back on and it works perfectly!I had door stoppers that kept falling off, so I JB Welded them and they're solid now!I've used JB Weld for at least 100 other fixes and I love the stuff.
Wish I had the patent on this stuff, works great and is just like you welding you two items. Sometimes this is the only stuff that will do the job.
I just &#34;plastic welded&#34; my split in half camry front bumper with this and worked like it was never broken. A year later, my bumper is still in its shape! There is no indication that the piece put together would break at all! It's more of a possibility that there will be a breakage elsewhere than the original area that was broken.
Although this has been on the market for many years I had never used it before, I had always welded whatever was cracked or broken, however you cannot weld magnesium oil tanks on chainsaws so I gave this stuff a try and it fixed me right up, very surprized and happy with this product.
Worked well for a project repairing a metal fountain we have. I ended up using a popsicle stick to mix and apply. All went well and the application went on cleanly. So far, all is working.
This does not fit my wheels. It needs a hose to fit more stem configurations. The 100 is identical, except for the 0-60 it is 0-100, but states it has a 11" hose but it doesn't. I recommend a type with a hose for versatility. The 100 is nice but the 60 is fine for most applications. If you have a bike that needs over 60 than look for a 100. This is not for all applications. Also be careful not to drop this or you throw it away.
nice tool, for a gift to the auto lover in your life.  easy to read and nicely made. a good qaulity item
So I bought this to replace my 20 year old, kicked around, same version of this gauge.  I had suspected my old one was not reading properly.  So I got this new one.  I am happy to report that the 20 year old one reads exactly the same as this new one.  So now I have a spare to keep in my other car.  The only thing I don't like about this model vs the old one is my old one had a little release valve. So it holds the needle where the pressure reading was till you press the release.  Very handy.  And it was my fault for not noticing it wasn't there on this new version.  Overall, I couldn't be happier with this product.  If you have a car, and have tires, and want them to last, having the correct tire pressure matters.
this unit is easy to use, read and durable. I had one for 20 years before it finally gave out (dropped once too many times). I bought a digital unit - wont work or quirky if it's too hot, too cold, raining, icy, snowy, and many times not easy to read. There's a reason that all of us have ANALOG clocks in our kitchen - our brain processes an analog dial far faster and more intuitively than a digital readout.Get this - you know you need one. Put in glove box and use once a month.
I actually bought one for each car and I am very pleased! It is easy to handle and read and needs no batteries like the ones thatpretend to be more accurate.
As everyone else points out, this intake tube will make your engine sound louder during moderate to heavy acceleration, but that is simply because it eliminates the factory resonance chamber.  The minimum cross section is the same as your stock tube so its not capable of flowing any more air than stock.  It still has the sharp 90 degree turn to the throttle body that the OEM system has.  There may be some minor reduction of turbulance, but at most engine speeds, especially where the engine spends most of its time, it won't matter.  I've never seen an independent  dyno test published with a before and after with just this mod.  Clearly the postings on Airaid's site are BS.  If something this simple could increase HP and torque by 5% across the RPM band, it would be incorporated into your car from the factory.  I doubt there is any HP improvement but there might be 1 or 2 HP gain.  Not enough to feel and not enough to measure with a G-tech on 1/8 mile runs.  On my 5.3 there was zero improvement in mileage over 40K miles of driving compared to before.  This includes some 400 mile runs pulling a 6000lb trailer.  It does look better than the stock set up and it really makes your motor sound like it has more power.  If that does it for you, buy one - its well made and fits great.  If you want a few more HP, save your money for a DiabloSport Predator or similar.  Only negative with the tube is you need to loosen the clamp at the throttle body to service your stock air filter because the coupling is not as flexible as the original (it doesnt need to be).
I had a different brand intake setup on my Silverado that basically fell apart.  So I threw the stock box back on and used this to go from the box to the intake.  Seems well made and fit well.  Not really sure how much improvement I got on performance, but it will allow the truck to breath much better than stock, so I guess it does all it is supposed to.
Used this to replace the stock intake tube on a 2004 Tahoe 5.3L V8. In conjunction with a K&N panel filter it has added a nice distant intake rumble at higher RPMs without being noticeable while cruising along. There was a small power gain which I noticed at lower RPMs where the transmission would normally downshift it can now pull a little harder from higher gears (overdrive, etc). It also freed up room under the hood which makes accessing the accessory belts easier.
I found a link testing different Cold Air Intakes (CAI) for this model truck (2003-2007.5) done from blackbear performance.  The tube alone produced 5~HP along with most others. I don't think I will post the link but googling it up for a 2004 silverado CAI dyno tested should get you what you want. Best bang for your buck. Removes a lot of extra tubing that doesn't need to be their. When installing, put the metal clamp things on first, then the rubber tube. Fit the rubber tube over the fittings (Air box or the Intake itself) then put the metal clamps over the rubber tubes that connect the Intake tube to the rest of the motor/air box. This is the easiest way to install it since the holes that this tube has to go over distort it enough to make installing with the metal clamps on impossible. After I figured this out, it only took me ten minutes after fighting with it for fifteen. Good luck and happy Hunting! :)
Airaid intake tube thought I would give it a try, not expensive compared to other intake tubes.  gave my 6.0 truck a boost in performance.  it will add that throaty noise to your engine when you put your foot down.
Newer BMW's use CHF 11S vice D4 ATF.  This is the stuff.  Price was right and the shipping fast which saved me a bit over the dealer's parts department.
Arrived quickly without any leaks in the box. My B6 Audi and 08 SAAB love this power steering fluid. If you need it quick check advanced auto parts, but expect to pay a little more.
Great hydraulic oil. Quality comes in an entire package. This includes the container, the pouring spout and the way the spout can be retracted with the cap on for storage. One can is enough to flush and refill the entire power steering unit.j After changing the fluid, my power steering is noticeable smoother and quieter. Very pleased with the performance of the product.
Made my steering wheel turn smooth.Flushed my 08 bmw 328i at 80k. Old fluid came out pitch black and this new fluid is pink.
Used this to replace my Mercedes fluid and the only difference is the twenty dollars we saved per bottle.Yes, I did buy another as soon as I realized that it was truly the right stuff.  Sorry Mercedes, I like DIY when possible!
This is the correct power steering fluid for 2007 BMW335i sedan. After replacing the fluid,  I used half of the container and the car power steering become very smooth and the low speed turning noisy missing.
I was a little skeptical of this product at first, but now I love it. I had bought a chemical Guys spray detailer and hated it and returned it due to streaking. Then I ordered this stuff because I wanted a better product and I trust Meguiar's. I was immediately impressed right out of the jug. This cleans very well and does not streak at all. It is priced right for sure, I would probably pay $30 for the gallon. Pick up a spray bottle and you're in business for a while with this detailer. You can use it on windows and basically every surface of your car. It takes me 10 minutes to clean my whole car now, amazing.
AWESOME!...i diluted it 50/50 and it works great on my cars, very slick after i &#34;touch it up&#34; with this stuff. with being able to dilute it 50/50 it will last twice as long....Smells great and the shipping was fantastic. Shipping was great, fast and no damage to product. I will order more when the time comes
This product leaves a nice smooth feel & shine. The price is right too. It applies easily, and works well on dark or light colors.
this stuff works great. i'm never buying spray bottles again. just refill them!i even got bigger spray bottles so i can spray a lot longer without refilling.
I wouldn't hesitate to make this purchase.  Be sure to use a high quality spray bottle and microfiber towel.  I'm impressed with how well it cleans glass, too!
I always follow up a wash or wax with Last Touch. It leaves the car with that just right appearance and helps protect against dust build up. Great not just on painted surfaces, but plastic/rubber trim as well. You will be pleased.
I've always had great experiences with Meguiar's products. This stuff works great and I used it on a Black car. A black car is very hard to keep the paint looking show room. I've used Detailing spray from local auto stores and they got nothing on this Meguiar's product. This stuff does not leave any smears but only if you use it under the sun it does and its very easy to wipe clean. This stuff removed deep water stains with ease that my car had, just use it under shade and cool car and you'll get a show room quality car.
I did not intend to buy a black truck, but it had all the options I wanted. Black vehicles look great clean, but don't stay that way for long.  I noticed after using the REJEX that I did not need to wash my truck as often. This stuff is also great for Plexiglass and Glass windows.  I used it on the inside and outside of my windows. Highly recommended.
I love this stuff.  I have been using it for years.  I purchased a new car and applied this polymer coating in a few hours.  It is easy to hand buff off, and leaves a deep, slippery shine on the car.  You MUST follow the directions for putting it on, including making sure the paint is in good shape and that the temperature is under 85, AND put it on out of the sunlight.  Also, the directions tell you to let the polymer cure/bind to your paint/clear coat for 12 hours.  This is very important for a good, long lasting shine.  The product fluff says the polymer coating lasts six months.  But, 4 months is about the limit in the Arizona sun.
I had my paint cleaned with a clay bar and a machine polish.Proper prep is important on a used car. Goes on easily, used very littlefor a thin film. Hand wipes off easily. You must give it 12 hours to curebefore using your car. If you park it in a garage and don't use commercialcar washes, you'll get up to 6 months of protection, especially if you doa second coat. Very slippery finish and looks almost as good as carnubawax which only lasts 4-6 weeks. great labor and paint saver. I also usedit on my windshield and other exterior glass. I thinks it's much easier towork with than Rain X and does a similar job. My 2004 Lexus RX330 looksgreat and cleans easily as nothing sticks to Rejex.
This product provides some serious protection. Not only is it a durable sealant, it's tendency to sheet water off reduces the likilihood of Type II water spots.Also nice is the relatively fast cure time.  In only eight hours, RejeX is stable enough that a second can be added.  Some sealants require 36 hours.  This makes RejeX far more convenient.As others have noted you have to apply this product very thinly.  If you don't you'll get a real good workout huffing it off.  The best application method requires a DA polisher because you can lay down a very thin coat easily.Applied properly, you'll need very little to do your car.  I need less than ounce to do my pickup.
So far so good. I applied it to my car, windshield as well as my wheels. The paint feels super smooth and water beads up very nicely. On my wheels the Rejex makes cleaning brake dust off very easy. I am not a car detailing enthusiast but for my purposes this product works great and I am satisfied with the protection and shine it provides.
I use this on my new Vette and have zero flaws in use and how it shows up on the finish!  Just bought a new RAM and it does the same.  Great product!
no other product matches this.  none. and it lasts a long time.  Just as a test, I dropped a pea sized amount on top of my concrete driveway.  That area gets the daily water drips from the sprinkler and people walk on it too.  That little drop, smudged in with my fingers, stayed white for 9 months (much to my spouce's dismay).  On the car's paint, it think it permanantely does something different than regular waxes.  On lighter colors, the shine isn't much better than your typical waxes from the competing makes. However, on darker colors, the shine under the sunlight is simply striking.  Finally, it beads water nicely too.  the difference I found is that it beads water slowly but longer, eventually moving most of the water off the paint.  I'm sold.
I decided to try this product on our 2008 Suzuki Grand Vitara.  We try to keep the car in showroom condition and have always used Carnuba wax.  The other day a bird dropped some presents on the hood, and when washed off at the end of the day had slighly eaten into the clearcoat.  We washed, clayed and used this product on the paint and it looks better than ever.  Great shine!
Love bugs in Florida, along with the other flying critters around are a real test for a product like this. Heck, you can saddle up and ride some of the insects that hit the windshield and front paint on your car, motorcycle, and motorhome!  Use this product and they all wash of with vertually no effort.  Works on the windshield glass without effecting wipers.  Cycle windshields become rain dispersing and clear as can be. Te front of my Camper looks like new.Use is after your clean the vehicle completely, do not use wax over it, and enjoy the results!  Oh, don't sit on your car hood after using this product, YOU WILL SLIDE RIGHT OFF!!!!
These cleaning wipes are a great way to clean the vinyl in your car. It moisturizes well, and leaves the vinyl looking sleek and smooth. The wipes in the container stay surprisingly moist, and there are plenty to use in multiple cars, multiple times. I would recommend these wipes to anyone looking for a quick clean for their car's interior.
These work as advertised but don't do anything particularly special.  Best part is just tossing them out when you're done.  No lint, unlike paper towels, so it works great to leave your interior surfaces clean without residual lint that can look really bad or embarrassing.  This product just cleans without any oil or gloss left over so that's great too as I dislike having greasy finishes that can reflect badly in the sun.  Need to make sure you keep these stored indoors out of the sun else they could dry up on you.I would suggest buying these when they're discounted such as subscribe and save @ 20% to maximize your savings.
The cloths work great for cleaning interior panels ie plastic, not good for windows, smells great.
This thing really cleans what you do not expect do get cleaned and even with ease. Try it and you'll know what I'm talking about.
Have tried several different wipe-style cleaners and find that this Armor All product does as good a job of cleaning my GT's interior as any of the products tried -- and some of the other products cost a lot more!These make cleaning fast and easy and they seem to give the car that 'new car' clean fragrance. In just a few minutes the steering wheel, instrument panel, center console, door panel, back speaker deck, glove box and other plastic, chrome and vinyl interior component turn from dusty to sparkling clean. Using these wipes beats spraying on a cleaner and then trying to wipe it off with a cloth... I go through four or five wipes each time, so the canister should supply enough for five or six cleanings.The reason for four stars -- the quality control of the wipes' canister is just not good, as we have had brand new packages opened dry, others drying out within a short period of time, and then others staying nice and damp all the way until the last wipe was used. Since we like the wipes but no longer trust the canister, we dump the contents (wipes and fluid) into a large zip-loc bag for safekeeping. That works well, but we really should not have to do this... so, four stars instead of five.Other Armor All products that we really like are the tire foam (Armor All Tire Foam Protectant 20 oz (1 lb 4 oz) 567 g) which produces a rich looking satin finish, the leather wipes (ArmorAll Leather Wipes Canister, 20 Wipes - Cleans, Conditions and Protects) which are great on my GT's leather seats, and the protectant (Armor All 10228 Original Protectant - 28 oz.) is excellent on the dash and all interior and exterior rubber.Highly recommend this product if you have a similar need... but think about keeping them in a zip-loc bag or something with a good seal.
what a great replacement for those awful plastic plugs which are so difficult to put in and take out.  Supposedly they also extend the life of the water heater.
Keeps our RV hot water heater tank in top condition.... I change it out every 4 months as it is about gone by then
I replace these about every two years or about 60 days of camping.  If you use your RV more thanyou may want to replace it more often.  This one is for a 6 gal tank and we have a 10 gal tank.  We did buy one last year for the 10 but it would not fit.
I change mine each year and it always is gone.  Was not able to get locally.  Amazon is one of the best places to shop.  This product fits and is new in package.
I do remove the rod after every trip to drain the tank and I notice the rod always has a little more wear, so I know it's working! Can only imagine how much life it's going to add to my h20 heater in my TT!
I purchased the Camco 11553 Anode Rod for my Atwood heater.  The anode was poorly manufactured and had a slight bend in the shaft.  This slight bend is enough to mis-align the treads in the cap section to the point where if forced into place, it would cross thread the female threads in the water heater.  It is not worth the time or hassle to return, so there it is . . .  scrap.  In the event the anode did thread in properly, the instructions indicate you should pull the anode once a month to be sure you keep the anode in a removable state.  Apparently, if you do not remove it once a month, it will corrode in position, making it extremely difficult to remove.  I have decided to keep my factory installed nylon drain plug as the plug of choice.  My previous RV was over 8 years old when I sold it and I never had corrosion problems with the nylon plug. Save your money.
I ordered several of these and stocked them so I have them to last for several years.  I used my first one for a year so far and it seems to be corroding at the same rate as the original which is good.  The threads on this one must be a little shallower as I  have had to use a fair bit of plumbers tape to stop the threads from leaking when the water is hot.  Other than that, it is just fine.
If you mineral content in your water is eating up your rods too fast this is a good alternative.  Get's rid of the smell you have with some magnesium water combinations. If magnesium works, stay with that.  If not, this is a good alternative.
Because I have had problems with hydrogen sulfide smell in the hot water, I hyperchlorinated my whole system and then, removed my magnesium anode and replaced with this aluminum anode.  Magnesium is more "reactive" than aluminum.  My research suggested that I will get less of this bacterial reaction within the heater with aluminum.My wife will be much more apt to smile in the shower with less of the H2S smell.  Sure hope that it makes a difference.  It is at least worth the try.
I needed a new anode rod this year for my camper.  I got the exact same thing from amazon that i could have got at a rv store for 1/2 the price
I bought a used RV.  It was our first.  Got it home and was doing some cleaning and general maintenance on it when I found the anode rod out of the hot water heater.  Now I have never had to deal with this before so I think that the junk on there needs to come off so I put it in a bucket with vinegar.  My buddy who has been RVing for a few years starts to laugh at me.  I had cleaned it down to the little copper wire in the middle.  He said it should be large looking.  So I get on Amazon and look it up and sure enough here it is.  Live and learn.Bottom line:It fits our RV hot water heater and was a great price.  Check them about once a year and flush out your tank when you change it.  It keeps the tank from rusting.
$15 is cheap insurance for what could ammount to a well over $500 repair.  Campers aren't cheap and niether is maintenance on them when something goes wrong.  I think the "ounce of prevention" rule was written for RV and home owners.  Anode rods are designed to prevent harmful build-up in your hot water heater by causing the build-up to form on them.  Yes it works!  While your getting one for you camper, you might want to check the one in your house hot water heater (yes it has one too, and I bet it's in need of replacement as well.)  5 minutes and 15 bucks can save you hundreds down the road.
Its cheaper than OE and it works. This rod seems to install a few threads deeper than the OE rod. If you do your own maintenance on your unit you may want to buy a pipe tap to clean the threads on the tank when replacing the anode every year.  Using the pipe tap to clean the threads ensures a good seal and keeps the unused threads from becoming completely unusable later.
If you own any type of travel trailer and it has a water heater you have to examine the Anode rod every year. I know the rule is if it used up 75% replace it. I have found by replacing it every other year has saved my heater. If you travel a lot you know we do not know what type of water is going though our system and what minerals are in that water. A few dollar for prevention saves many dollar to replace the water heater plus runing a good vacation.
I replaced my RV aluminum anode rod right after I purchase my rig.  Upon removing the rod from the unit I found that the rod was complete gone.  The new rod worked out beautiful.  Did not have a problem removing or reinstalling the rod.  Heater work just great.
Replaced my Suburban Anode with this one. Fits correctly and is a good replacement at a cheaper cost. Why pay more.Update: I've used this for the season. It been working great.
depending on how much you use your travel trailer/RV i replace mine every year. easy to remove and reinstall new one. I use white nylon tape just in case for no leaks
A must for your RV water heater that requires and Anode Rod.  You should remove it at least once a year to be sure there is enough surface on the Anode Rod.  Will save replacing the the whole water heater if you fail to do this. A little difficult to remove and reinstall, but again worth the time and effort.
I replace mine annually in my Suburban water heater. This one holds up unlike the magnesium anode I tried once. It does it job well and is still pretty much intact after a year. Although it  leaves white flaky stuff in the water heater which I have to rinse out, it simply lasts twice the time of the magnesium, at least in my motorhome. It is well made for the price.
this replaces the oem anode / plug exactly and is of good quality.  keep a good one of these in the tank or the water will begin to canabalize your tank and fittings.  just a word to the wise.
Ordered the Camco 11563 Anode to replace the original in out 5th wheel.  Owners manual said to check/replace every 12 months.  I let mine go just over 12 months thinking we had not camped that many times.  I was so suprised when I removed the original and found it almost gone. Won't make that mistake again as now I will check/replace every six months.  Oh yes, this was a perfect fit.
used in a 2009 heartland cyclone, fifth wheel trailer.. my previous one was in there for about 5 years was a little hard to get out but used an impact wrench to get it loose it was a magnesium anode and had dissolved everywhere inside the tank.. this aluminum anode is rumored  to not break down as much...
I purchased this at the same time as a load equalizing hitch.  I wasn't sure I needed it as the trailer seemed to tow fine, but I thought it might be useful in high wind.  After towing with the sway control installed, I plan to use it whenever I am towing.  It seems to cancel out a lot of the small movements created by the trailer and makes the tow vehicle ride better and feel more stable.  The only disadvantage I have found is that the sway control "groans" going around corners.  This is one of those "that is just the way it works" situations, but it would be nice if it were quieter.  It also adds another step to hitching up the trailer, but the sway control is very easy to install and remove.  Overall, a worthwhile addition even for a trailer that tows well already.
I've read many reviews which swear by this product.  I can tell a small difference in sway while towing but I've yet to use it in any 'more severe than normal' conditions.  I'm sure once I do, I'll be saying prayers of thanks for this purchase.
I purchased 1 of these to tow my 16 ft camper from Northern New England to Florida this past Spring. You can buy 2 of them and use them for extra protection. I didn't need to do more than 1 as my camper is about 1600 lbs...It took me some driving and stopping to ask others why I didn't feel my sway bar was working to understand I was using it wrong.I had the sway bar to tight. The handle is very easy to turn and you can feel when it gets taunt. Over tightening it will defeat the purpose of using this item. It is NOT a stabilizer bar..it's a sway bar.. took me a while to get it...I prefer to have the sway bar for my small camper..plus it's easy to remove or even loosen..which you really have to do to turn around in tight spaces. The thing will screech as you turn! The sway bar is sup to allow your camper to do some sway just not very much sway. if you over tighten it, it will not work properly..when the wind hits you, both the camper and the car will feel the pull back and forth.. you don't want that.. you want the camper to be able to have some sway with the wind. This product is great because you can adjust the amount of tension for low winds/high winds. GREAT PRODUCT!
This unit fit on my cargo trailer with minimal effort. Took out all the sway during our trek to Washington from Arizona.
I use this with my 28 ft travel trailer.  I can tell a difference when I use it and when. Don't. The friction type, like this one, make lots of noise when you make turns. Not a big deal but the first time you hear it, you think something's breaking.
Easy to install but on the 4th day the self tapping bolts came out-stripped out of the frame. It was adjusted as recommended and I never backed up or turned too tightly. I felt it helped and will likely pay to have it welded in place. Lost one pin and 4three bolts. I would probably buy a Reese equalizer hitch with anti-sway next time but I have an Eaz type.
I installed one of these when I set up our newly purchased Travel trailer and the weight distribution system.... It helped allot at controlling sway but didn't eliminate all the sway. Another camper suggested adding a second sway control to the left side so I did and that took care of all the sway... Very pleasedWe've logged over 15,000 miles pulling our 36 foot Holiday Rambler Twin slide TT with no sway (unless it was VERY windy)
I tried it out today on my way to the campground today. It worked just like I had expected it too. Well pleased with it so far!
Great product.  Stops the bounce in the over the 5th wheel bedroom. Solid product, easy to set up when reaching camp.
Super heavy chain. Adjust chain so the tripod is about 6 inches lower that leveled trailer. Raise tripod using wrench included. Do not supoport full weight of trailer. This is for stabilization of the 5th wheel. In our case in provided extra stabilization for the bedroom.
Going from a diesel pusher back to a 5th wheel I was already getting grief as to how much more movement of the RV would be felt over that of the diesel pusher while raised up on the leveling system.Not being new to the 5th wheel movement and shaking when parked and people moving around inside I ordered this as I have used one in the past.  While a 5th wheel king pin stabilizer will not eliminate all of the movement it does greatly reduce the movement.It is easy to assemble, easy to use though a little on the heavy side.  But, then with weight comes strength I guess.  I have tried it out and am pleased with the improvements it has given.Amazon had the best price I could locate after an extensive internet shopping for price including shipping.  And of course there is that great customer service and return policy Amazon offers should you experience a problem.Over all I give it two thumbs up for performance and value.
Well built device that is simple to use and store.  It is heavy but not too much to handle.  Very stable and quick to set up.  The price was right compared to all others.
First off, assembly was a breeze.  Had this shipped overnight for a weekend trip.  Amazon Prime membership has it's privileges.  It only cost a few extra dollars.  Still cheaper than any retail store on the planet.Secondly, when I tried to employ this, it was quickly apparent that 60" wa'nt tall enough.  Since I used up all of my leveling blocks to level the 5th wheel, I couldn't use any to raise this up to be tall enough to support my king pin.If this would have had just a couple more inches... every man's dream!Guess I just have to get another stack of leveling blocks.  So 4 Stars for falling short.of my needs first time out.
Not rating it high because it will not work on a Openrange lite fifth wheel hitch.  The hitch on these lite's are like a goose-neck hitch which allows to make 90 degree turns in a short wheelbase truck.  The hitch comes down to far and there isn't enough clearance between the hitch and the ground.  The legs would be spread too far out to give any type of support.  What I did was put it under the large bracket that hold the hitch and that did work pretty good.  You cannot attach it to the ball, but overall it seems to control a little of the rocking motion of the trailer. The item itself is built sturdy and I would have rated it a 5 but it not for every fifth wheel hitch.
I have been happy with this brand for quite a few years.  I will try one of their competitors next time for comparison
For autos, you cannot find a better Battery! You want your car to start in the worst condition, buy this battery! Also lasts for years past warranty and years longer than the bargain brands. No spills either!
Don't buy Optima Batteries! Pure junk. After Johnson Controls bought Optima and moved the factory to Mexico they have gone downhill. The last three I bought all went bad, one before I was even able to use it. I had bought an Optima to power my 56 Chevy, and after it sat unused for a month, I went to try and start a new motor...nothing. Wouldn't even take a charge. Save your money and get one at the local parts store with a warranty.FYI essentially all auto batteries in the US are made by only 2 companies and then branded. Exide and Johnson Controls. Check it out.
I dragged my feet on spending the extra money to buy this battery but I'm glad I did. Local retailers were charging nearly as much for conventional batteries. I like the convenience of having both the side and top terminals.
Came fast packed in thick styrofoam shell and heavy cardboard. Box has hand inserts to make moving it around very easy on the back. Easy to unpack. I have a 3/4 ton diesel truck that requires 2 batteries. It is 4WD, so it is hard to work on due to the height of lift. To make it worse, one of the batteries is extra hard to get to--past replacements with traditional batteries have been a pain, and the traditional batteries have leaked, causing metal damage. I removed the last set and repaired the rust problems. Putting these batteries is was a breeze. Removal from the box was super easy. I didn't need the adapter frames included. The innovative shape makes the plastic handle actually usable and I was able to put them in without the normal contortions and back sprains. Easy hook up. Tested just as advertised and they really kick butt for starting. I'll come back and report on how they hold up. My truck is used on my mountain ranch and has to go over roads that are so bad and washed out that it gets bucked around pretty hard. If these don't leak I will be ecstatic.
This was probably one of my best purchases when it came to fixing up my car. I've never seen a car's performance improve after adding in a new battery before until now, and I have to say I am very pleased with the price too. It's a great buy for people looking for a reliable battery. I know I love it.
I've an Optima in my old Corvette that has now failed.  I've have read thru their warranty information.  It states that the battery must be returned to the selling dealer for warranty service.  It cannot be returned to Amazon for any reason.  Therefore my question is this:If the battery purchased thru amazon should require warranty service, how is this done and by whom?
Fit the application perfectly, and the car started without hesitation on the first crank.  I would recommend however that you look into the Optima website directly to purchase batteries, as they have an offer that extends their standard warranty when you purchase one of their chargers as part of the battery purchase.  You can't get the warranty if you do not purchase them together.  I'm not sure, but it does make sense that if you purchase this battery or any others in their line and you do purchase a charger in the same transaction they would probably honor the warranty extension, but I would check with them first.  The bottom line however, is that these batteries are so well made that they will probably outlast a standard battery 5 times over, so what's the logical point to extend the warranty to two years to begin with.  They're just trying to sell chargers and giving you the incentive by upping the warranty.  I'm certain the battery will far outlast that 2 year warranty.  As with all batteries, you should invest in a good smart battery charger rather than something cheap from Harbor Freight.
I was impressed at the ease of installation. Instructions could have been a bit better since I took off the muffler rubber hanger on the passenger side and really didn't need to do that. A little forethought on my part would have made it quicker. The muffler actually provides a way to hold one side of the hitch while you bolt the other side up. I was able to get it mounted myself in under 10 minutes.
I have installed several hitches in the past and this is the first one that I have ordered that did not include a ball mount... This review would have been 5 stars if I didn't have to go out on my own and buy the ball mount as well. Didn't have it listed as included but I just bought a Curt mount for my Lexus GS350 which one was included... Lesson here is if you plan to install and use on the same day order a ball mount as well. Install was a total PITA!! The bolts holes used to mount the hitch itself were rusted to no end (2005 MDX) and the ONLY way for me to get the bolts in was to use one of the old ones that held up the tow hook you remove and using that as a thread cutter with WD-40... I also used an old round plastic brush and brushed the threads with lubricant as well!! Install took almost 5 hours due to this unforeseen problem.
Just installed it on my 2006 Honda Pilot.  Had to lower the spare tire, but didn't have to move the exhaust pipe.  The bolts didn't go into the frame easily at first, so I cleaned out the threads (on the frame) with a wire brush and that solved the problem.It looks great and works extremely well.
Good news:1) Arrived on time2) Well designed3) Great price4) Perfect fit5) What more could you askBad news:1) None so farInstallation is really a two person operation. I took mine to a local shop and it was installed by two guys in about 15 minutes for sixty dollars. Holes were perfectly aligned to my wife's 2002 Acura MDX. All bolts fit. Only had to remove tie down bracket and associated 3 bolts. Looks great!
great product for the money.  easy to install and looks/functions great!  just needed an impact wrench to secure it to the vehicle
As with all camco products the quality is up to the grade you would expect. Plan on lubricating the threads of this simple screw jack when you first put it in service as it will be had to operate and bind when used unlubricated.
I purchased these for support under my 3 step RV steps.  Keeps camper from rocking and steps from sagging!  I like!
They are rather small and really cheaply constructed i could have bought stuff at the store to build these cheaper they went with my old pop up trailer when i traded it in.
...but to say &#34;I loved it&#34; is a real stretch for jack stands.  These are the typical screw type adjusting stands.  They seem to be well built.  Enough said.
Primarily:  They do what they are supposed to for my 30 ft. trailer. Work well and easy.Secondarily: They came shipped in their own box, which is weak enough to need an outer box - arrived in pieces, but all metal held up, though scratched.  Needed to be a little less green to package the weight of 4 metal stands.
Sturdy and rugged. Easy to stow, when you stack them together, they have a very small footprint. They get the job done! I suggest you order the set of 4.
These little jack stands are very lightweight, but seem very strong. I had a jack fail on my popup camper and gave these a shot. They work great!
I'm impressed. I have a 19 foot KZ single axle and ordered 4 of these to keep the bounce out of the unit when we are inside. These are easily adjustable and store quickly. I put one just in front of and just behind the axle on both sides. These coupled with the equipped legs and the Camco Self Store Step and my camper has absolutely no movement when several adults are inside. My wife is happy, so I'm happy.
bought these to help stabilize our 5th wheel pop out. they are not near tall enough and a little flimsy, returned them. Amazon is amazing with the return.
I actually bought these for my Lotus, they are an affordable alternative to the other flat top jackstands on the market. They work as they should and the price was great. With a car that only weighs 2,000lbs the 6,000lbs each is complete overkill. Note: Not to lift anything.
Man, you want these if for nothing else they pack down in the RV very small. Quick to adjust up or down before twisting the wings.
I have a 30' travel trailer.  It has built in jacks at the front and rear (4 total) along with the tongue jack but it still tends to bounce no matter how tight you get those jacks.Not a major problem, but a minor annoyanceSo I ordered these.  My camper has twin axles and the axles are square.  I put these under one of the axles and crank them up as tight as I can.  It removes 99% of the bounce in the camper.I recommend these to anyone that wants to use them for this purpose.  I suppose you could also use them at the front and back, if you don't have built in jacks.
I have one of these jacks supporting the rear of my trailer in the driveway, it is rock steady even with four people in the trailer. I like it that these are light weight (steel jack stands can be quite heavy) and I like that these come apart easily and stack up into a compact set for storage.As far as using these for camping: hmmm. They are really too short for my camper, so I'll need to haul 2x6 pieces around to raise them up. Also, the head (the piece that touches the frame of the trailer) doesn't swivel well under load and can pop off of the frame while you are raising the stand. And the steel parts (the nut and the screw) aren't galvanized so they rust.
It's a good sturdy product, but it's impossible to level my motorhome with them. That's probably not what they're made for though, so the dislike is because of my mistake of buying for the wrong application, not the product.  ~Pegleg~
Easy to adjust and manuever.  I bought these for my antique travel camper and they work perfectly.  They store easily and work efficiently.
Only the stand is aluminum.  The center shaft, handle, and top are steel.  Mine started to rust within a week of use.
Pros:LightweightStack when not in useStainless steel screwsStable cast aluminum base--no rockingCons:None that I can seeI use these to keep the truck camper weight off of the corner jacks when it is in storage. They are lightweight, yet strong enough for my purpose. Just like any cast aluminum, the stands get a layer of corrosion, but that won't hurt their usefulness. The screw supports are stainless and operate easily after 6 months of winter weather.
I bought these because my Gulfstream Ameri-Lite 16BHC only came with 2 in the rear and I felt that adding 2 in the front would stabilize the entire travel trailer.  Why they don't come stock on this trailer is beyond me, but it would seem many smaller campers only have them in the rear.  Anyway, first impressions: quality manufacturing (yes, made in China ironically) and solid.  When I set these next to my factory jacks that came with my Ameri-Lite 16BHC, it was immediately evident that the Camco versions were much more solid.  Overall, they are just &#34;thicker&#34; - more steel was used when making them.I was worried for a moment because it felt like both were locked into their closed positions, so before I went through the trouble of bolting them on (which required drilling through my travel trailer's steel frame), I made sure they opened by clamping them to a solid surface in my home and opening them.  They were tight, but eventually I got them to open without issue.Installation wasn't complicated, but slightly laborious.  Drilling through solid steel is never a fun time when you're on your back in the driveway!  :)  The instructions call for them to be extended, then your frame marked with a punch via a hammer, then remove jacks, then pilot drill a small hole, a following it up with the bolt-size 11/32&#34; bit.All I did was fully extend them where I wanted them, drilled the small pilot hole while they were holding the bottom of my frame up, then removed them, then drilled the larger 11/32&#34; hole - MUCH EASIER.  No need to use a punch.These come pretty dry from the factory, so plan on lubricating them with some lithium grease or similar to help them collapse/extend and protect them from rusting.  My 2013 Ameri-Lite 16BHC came with scissor jacks that were already showing corrosion just by sitting on the sales lot (purchased in May 2013).  We'll see how these Camco versions hold up, but so far they're awesome.  Highly recommended.
This is the second set of these I purchased. Very well made, thick steel and is strong. Much better than the flimsy factory units my trailer came with.
i bought these to replace one of the OEM jacks on my camper.  there is no comparison between my original jacks and these.  the Camco jack is heavey built from the gauge of metal used in the scissor to the screw all is way heavier built and operates smoothly.  i will be ordering another set and just change out the cheap ones that came with the camper.
The only thing I have against scissor jacks is that after they have been raised to the height prior to having to level my 31' RV, it requires quite a hefty force to raise it for leveling. The included socket and turn handle had the pin break at the socket and I had to improvise with an icepick for a temporary repair. A Camco socket that I purchased also for using fit perfect, but a 3/8" drill wanted to burn out tring to raise the jacks. I plan to use something more powerful next time. I'd like to see some gearing on the crank to make the jack raise easier when leveling my rv. THe Jack does have the strength and ability to take the weight without any problem.
Bought 4 of these to replace an old rusty set that was on my older camper.  I like the lug nuts on the end much better than the old style.  I was able to swap mine out by just removing the bolts and the old jacks and bolting this in the exact same place, no drilling was needed as the holes lined up perfectly for me.
If you liked the old ArmorAll, you'll like this one better.  The original formula was too runny.  This one is a little more viscous so it doesn't just flow like water when you spray it on something.  I use it for the interior of my car.To keep it from splattering on the glass, I spray it onto a small sponge and then use the sponge to apply it.
Can't go wrong with this. Love the results. Leaves a nice shine that lasts. And the size for the price was better compared to my local stores.
If you haven't used it by now-then you don't need it anyway.I like the light clean look it gives instead of tire foam and I can use it sprayed on a rag to detail.It's a must for anyone who keeps their stuff clean.
Armor-All is a miracle worker for tired, dried, old upholstery. It cleans, seals, protects, covers scratches, and makes leather and vinyl look new again. I've been using it since the early 1980s, and highly recommend it.  I use it on the seats, dash, inner doors, and even on the tire sidewalls.  I've also used it on leather and vinyl purses, an office chair, and leather book covers.Just spray, let it soak in, then wipe it off well.  If you buff it, it doesn't leave an oily residue or any odor.  Don't use it on any place that would be a slipping hazard, like floors, because it does leave a slippery finish.Try Armor-All and you'll be amazed at how great your car seats can look!
ArmorAll is a brand that you can't say much about. the product speaks for itself. i've seen the work on 20 year old cars that AA has done. weather you have a brand new 13 or 14 or its a 1994 at its best, armour all will keep it look its best for years to come
What can you say about Armor All if you have already used it before. Makes plastic shine like new.Showed up on time and no issues.
Wiped down the interior of my car and it looks brand new.  Took about 15 minutes to do the entire interior.  It's been about 2 months and it still looks brand new.  Well worth the time and money.
Bought this to do some 2-pack paint touch up on my car - that paint will do nasty things to your lungs without a respirator!Does the job, but gets somewhat sweaty where the rubber seals fit around your face.  However that's necessary to ensure a good seal.  And it does seal good!Another reviewer mentioned you can't easily wear glasses with these. I had no problem as long as I had my glasses on when putting on the respirator with its behind the neck and over the top of the head elastic strapsPrice is acceptable, even for a disposable unit and I'll be after another one next time I have some hazardous materials to handle.
I have not used this yet but the quality appears to be good. Keep in mind it was a $20 item so it is not built to last forever. I'm guessing the hourly use indicated will fulfill the cost of this item
Nice mask. It seals well and is pretty comfortable except for a slight pinch on the bridge of the nose.
Comfortable than many other mask.3M quality that you can trust.Its your lung worth the extra few bucks you might  saved from some cheap masks ?
Needed a respirator for painting my frame on my truck, worked great, was super happy with the qualityty and how effective this actually was!
I was looking for a Respirator to use while degreasing firearms with Brakekleen and messing around with &#34;odorless&#34; mineral spirits.Plus I have a pretty big Brain, so my brain protector is large compared to normals.  Couldn't find a size Large at any of the home improvements stores and this is only 20 bucks shipped.Great protection, did not smell any fumes at all during cleaning.  Only once I removed this respirator and was headed inside did I realize how bad those fumes could have been to me.  Awesome mask at an awesome price.Love 3M products.
Sprayed some very toxic paint. I did not smell anything. When I took the mask off you could see every thing caught in the filters.This mask is designed so you can make an air tight fix with little or no effort. Once you put it on it stays and does not slip or move. 'Really protects your health. A must for using some spray paints even from a can Please read the labels. Some of this stuff is really dangerous.
this is a great product from 3m I would tell any one who is going to do painting this is one tool you should have
I purchased this to upgrade the horn on my Miata. Louder than stock with a nice tone. The install wasn't bad; you do not need a relay. I've also used a Nautilus compact air horn. The tone of the Nautilus is much nicer, much higher, which I like. The volume is similar between the two. The one thing I don't like about the Nautilus is it needs routine maintenance. Over time, you need to spray WD-40 into the horn opening of Nautilus to keep it working. This restores its performance. The Piaa, being an electric horn, is not affected by extreme cold like the Nautilus, nor does it require maintenance. It is a nice upgrade, but if I had to purchase again, I would choose the Nautilus.
had a friend install the horn. replaced the old horn mechanic had to find another location for the other horn. sounds o.k. I was expecting a more solid sound though.
I recently bought a 2011 Hyundai Tucson loaded to the gills and was astonished at how impossibly wimpy the single note factory horn was.  Leather seats, nav, panoramic sunroof, bluetooth, backup camera, kick-*ss sound system with subwoofer and iPod integration, etc., all kinds of toys.  Yet the factory horn sounds almost as robust as the horn in the 1966 VW bus my family had when I was a kid.  "Meep meep."  Note I said the Hyundai horn was ALMOST as robust as the '66 VW.  I think the VW horn had a little more oomph.  What was Hyundai thinking??I found a Hyundai tech to swap the original Hyundai/Kia P.O.S. horn with this item and the results are awesome.  My first ever new-car mod and it worked out great.
I spliced this into the stock porsche wiring on my 987.1 Cayman.  I was even able to get the horns mounted in the right location.These are the exact euro sound I was looking for and they are plenty loud enough on the stock wiring.  If i had more room in the front, I would've used a relay and wired it to the battery.
The horns were easy to install. They draw about the same amount of current as my stock horns (in the 2.5A to 3A range for each PIAA horn), so I was able to use the stock wiring, relay, and fuse instead of having to wire a separate connection to the battery positive. I used Installation Type B (two horns, each with a single wire). The stock horn positive connections plugged directly into the positive quick connect of the PIAA horns. I didn't have to cut off the stock connectors and crimp on new connectors. The stock horns use a single connection, so I ran a separate ground wire from each PIAA horn to a ground point near the hood latch.I made an inverted T bracket to hang the two horns off of the location for one of the stock horns. The PIAA horns are a bit larger than a typical stock "beep-beep" style Japanese horn, so you do have to plan ahead to make sure that you have enough room for the horns and whatever mounting bracket you may use. I angled my PIAA horns slightly outward (instead of hanging straight down) to clear an engine brace below the horns.The horns have a nice Euro sound and are suitably loud.
These horns are a blast! (Pun intended:). For the small price, they take the dull moose horns in most American cars and make them into the sexy European higher tone ones we hear in every movie shot in Europe where the bad guy is rushing through traffic. Great way to make your import sound authentic, and great fun for other brands.This kit comes with the 500 & 600 Mhz horns. Almost all cars in America have a 400 and 500 set. So, although you get both, you really only need to replace the 400 one in your car with the 600 one in the package. Sounds fabulous! So, it you can pick up just the 600 Mhz horn by itself, for a good price, that's all you need. The horns have two spade connectors, which may or may not fit your auto setup. If you are at all handy, installing these is no big deal, BUT, for many cars, you WILL have to cut off the connectors in your car, and splice in new ones, so if you don't even know what "splice" means, or you don't want to cut a wire on your car, better to leave this one. Also, in my case anyway, had to go purchase two female ends (it comes with (2), NOT (4) - and for the 20 cents these cost, think they would be included.All in all, a cheap fun way to spice up your vehicle!
I bought these to replace a &#34;Bad Boy Air Horn&#34; which had failed after only 2 years. The first thing I noticed was that they were really well made, and had a quality feel about them. The second is that they were fitted with a splash guard over the &#34;mouth&#34;, which I haven't seen on any other horns.Although these were very easy to fit, I was disappointed that the kit came with no mounting hardware, relay, or wiring, not a big deal, but at the price would it have killed them to have included a couple of nuts and bolts?Now the bottom line, how do they sound? Answer, great! They are as loud as the old &#34;Bad Boy Air Horn&#34; but they have a much better twin tone sound. Also, unlike the air horns you can actually &#34;beep&#34; these, which is great for getting someone's attention in traffic without resorting to a full on blast.Finally, as these were being fitted to a Toyota Corolla I opted for the 500hz/600hz high tone, and it suits the car perfectly. They also make a 400hz/500hz which sounds like a typical American car, and a 330hz/400hz which would sound great on a truck.
One month update:I am still very pleased with the horns, and increased my rating from 4 to 5.  I originally gave the horns a 4 rating because they weren't as loud as I was expecting, but now think they are just perfect just as they are.Original review:I replaced the wimpy original horn on my 2001 Sebring Coupe LXi with this pair of horns as part of a bigger make over.  It took about 20 minutes with great results.  Not as loud as I would have liked, but much better sound more likely to get attention when needed.  I was mystified that some of the reviewers apparently only installed one or the other of the horns.  They are meant to be installed as a pair (even if you only have one horn as original equipment).  If you do have only one horn its a simple matter to re-wire for two horns.  The package includes simple easy to follow wiring diagrams and a pair of ground wires (one for each horn).  In my case I had one power wire to one horn, so I joined two wires together at the male end (to plug into the power lead) and two separate female ends to plug into the horns.  Same arrangement for the ground except the joined end is attached to the frame of the car for a ground.  I installed both horns side by side on the tab the original horn was attached to.  Not too hard and sounds pretty good.
I can save a few cents at WalMart, but then I have to drive 20 miles and fight the crowds to get it.  Not only that, they may not have it.  They usually only stock about 4 of them at a time.  I'm running a small mower/ATV repair shop and this filter fits 75% of everything I work on.  I usually buy 10 or more at a time.Yes, the filter does have paper end caps.  But in a low RPM and low compression engine with small volume oil pumps, I have never seen one fail.  I had four different makes of this same filter several weeks ago and cut them all open.  Every filter was made a bit different.  What I liked about the Fram was that it had larger intake holes and it had twice the number of threads as the other three, Wix, Puralator & John Deere.The filter is just a safety device to catch any errant foreign debris.  If you have metal or dirt in your oil/filter, you have bigger issues.  The key is good oil and regular oil changes.  The filter for the most part just sits there waiting for something bad to happen, the key is the oil, which actually does all of the work.
it is just an oil filter, out with the old in with the new one, as long as it fits it is done
I've been using this filter for the 12 years that I've owned my Camry, and have been using Fram filters long before that.  It works just like it should; as far as I know this is the best filter on the market.  The sandpaper-like grip has me committed to this brand.  It allows me to change the filter on my car without any tools, and I cannot exaggerate the convenience of that one feature alone.Some people have commented on the quality of the filter based on what it looks like on the inside.  While it's a natural tenancy to judge products by the way they look, I wouldn't give it much value.  The only way to properly judge an oil filter is to run lots of dirty oil through it and see if it does its job.  Consumer Reports did this a long, long time ago and Fram came out on top.  I'm sure the product has changed since then, and I'm not aware of more recent studies.  All I can say is that I've used this brand for more than a decade and have never had any problems with the filter.
this product is good if you didn't know that by now, you must be picky or new at filters. WOOT
All of frams oil filters are nothing but cardboard inside. I saw several video's on youtube showing how bad these are so I cut my old one open at 3000 mi. to see if its true. Its TRUE! All cardboard even the end caps. Even the tough guards! All fram filters are like this. Whats worse is the pleats. The cardboard pleats close shut and this makes the oil have to seek another open pleat to enter. Mine had half of its pleats closed. That means only half the oil filter was working.Next is the seem were the pleated rows are connected. It was open half way up the seam because the glue came loose!  That means dirty oil was by passing the filter all together.  These are the worst filters on the market no doubt. Fram just spent so much money blowing smoke up our tails we believe they are good filters....Cut your old fram open and look inside. If you dont want to get dirty just go too youtube and type in fram oil filter. NOTHING BUT GARBAGE! Fram could'nt care less about the life of your car. Buy anything else but fram! ANYTHING.
I have an issue paying someone $100 for them to plug in a gadget like this to read a code that tells me what could be wrong with my car.  At the same time, I hate the concept that I have to buy something like this to tell me what could possibly be wrong with my car.  That said, I'm glad that they sell this product.  Its great.It works on literally all 1996 and newer vehicles.  When your check engine light comes on, follow the instructions and plug this in.  It will read the code on the computer on your car that you can use to tell what could be wrong with your car.A few things:A) this is the base model of these types of products so you won't get some of the super advanced features of ODBII but it will give you the codeB) You can erase the code with this once you fix your car problemC) It doesn't require batteriesOf note, the codes are not perfect. They're only designed to help you troubleshoot and usually a code can have several root cause problems.  That said, its nice being able to plug this in and know if you have a problem that requires the car to be taken in or if its a $1.99 part that I can replace myself.I bought it because my check engine light came on.  Literally, the source of the problem was an unusual condition that sometimes occurs in cold weather -- no repairs were necessary to my Car...cost to diagnose: the cost of this scanner (which I get to keep for future use).Cost if I had taken it in....likely $100 for pluggin in the machine...AND an unscrupulous mechanic could have chosen from 4 parts to replace (the least expensive $1.99 and the most expensive about $200 + $200 in labor)....hmmm...This is a nice product.  Get it.  Save money.
This was my first code reader. Its excellent because it reads all da codes. I never use the code book that it came with because i just google the codes on my iPhone and get instant results. Its also easy to delete codes and turn of the check engine light once youve made a fix.
Tried it on my 2007 Aveo with no known problems. It detected zero codes. Hooked it up to my 2000 Sienna with a check light and it prompted a code(PO0135) to replace my oxygen sensor. Did that and rechecked it with no codes. You need a code reader instead of replacing every sensor! How do you erase the codes with the erase button? I tried with the erase button with no avail. I ended up just disconnecting the negative battery cable for five minutes. I replaced the battery cable and started the van up. Low and behold, No More Check Engine Light. This small entry level, pocket size code reader did the job. The OB-2 hook up for the van is under the dash near the steering wheel. Paid for itself with one code reading compared to having the shop do it. I'm glad that I bought this in the comfort of my home with Amazon instead of driving around in traffic.
Got it for over a year period of time but never got a chance to use it till 2 weeks ago...The engine check light turned on in my VW. Plugged in this code reader and got one OBII Error code. Googled the OBII Error code and found that was something to do with bad catalyst conveter. Checked my manufacturer warranty policy and found that the emission (catalyst converter) warranty would be expired in 2 weeks!! Rushed the car into VW dealer. VW dealer confirmed the catalyst converter was bad and I got free fix and replacement for the catalyst converter.Really happy that this small OBII code reader helped me to understand the source of the problem. Highly recommended.
3 weeks ago my CEL light came on.  The car ran fine, there was no sensation of a defect.  I could pull the battery and wait 5 minutes, which is a reset spec for OBD II without a reader, but what if the issue was serious, later on?  Calling the car dealership, a diagnostic ran $75.  A Toyota TSB released in 2006 said a common issue was simply a loose gas cap.  I tightened it, and tried to reset the CEL.  No go.  Ordered the reader, as I'll need it anyway for other issues as they arise with the CEL.  Followed the instruction, diagnosed the issue, checked it against the Toyota troubleshooting manual, and presto, CEL is gone.  For $47 versus the $75, not only is the problem fixed, I know how to do it [ priceless!] and I now have a tool to diagnose these pesky electronic computer modules that feeds data to the CEL, just to insure the dealership is up to snuff, or I can fix it myself [sometimes it can be just a loose hose.]It rates 4/5 for 2 reasons:The cord is short.  Its OK, but the unit will not raise to a comfortable chest height connected to the OBD II jack, one has to crouch down;No backlight, crouched in the dark driver pedal area, a small LED or something would help a ton, given how dark it is down there and the cabin light doesn't light one's feet.Other than that, its so simple even a cave man can do it.
My SLK 230 was throwing a few errors before storing it last Fall and was able to purchase this and buy my own MAF online (way cheaper) after the codes matched a few online listings.  I've had other people wanting to use this tool - very nice little gadget.
It does just what it says.  Software will give you the exact manufacturer's fault read-out.  It's still up to you to find the exact cause, but this item provides the fault read-out at a bargain price.  Mine just paid for itself: the dealer charges as much to read the code as this scanner costs!  $29 more everywhere else!
This Scan reader has already saved me $$$.  I have an 06 Chev 2500 diesel I bought new.  I have had it into the dealers a number of times and they always say "you need a new turbo unit at $3000.  But the truck runs fine I just keep getting a `Check engine' light off and on.  Bought this "Pocketscan Code Reader" and it tells me the code and allows me to reset the `check engine light.Is there an engine problem?  Could be but since this check engine light issues started I've towed an 8000 lb travel trailer 2000 plus miles.  Truck continues to run just fine. I can reset the check engine light a lot of times before the issue is worth spending $3000 to eliminate that irritant.  Dealer charges $90 to reset the light.'Update:  New code arrived and since I was going to have the diesel filter replaced I asked the dealership to check it.  (it was a free chech since I was already in the shop.  They said need to replace the glow plugs since the truck has 80,000 miles on it.  $300.00 plus installation for the 8 plugs.  Checked at home using the scan reader and yes, one (1) glow plug was inop.  Cost $40 for plug and 20 Minutes to install.  Problem solved.
This Actron CP9125 is an invaluable tool in that it allows you to clear the CEL (check engine light) without having to disconnect the battery and risk possibly causing another problem.  If, for example, your gas cap is left loose and the CEL comes on, you can immediately reset the CEL rather than panic and go to the stealership.  But most people don't realize the OBD-II (on-board diagnostics) will actually self reset after a number of cycles, but few people understand the testing cycle process.
Pays for itself the first time you clear out a pointless CEL.  Super easy to use, powers itself off the car, so no batteries.  Just plug it in, read the codes and look them up in the book, then reset them.
This works great on cleaning dirty wheels, the brush feels strong and the bristles feel a bit hard. These are good for cleaning stock alloy wheels, however if you have aftermarket wheels that have chrome or polish, I would use this brush with care, I find it a bit on the rough side.
I have used these for years and continue to be satisfied with them.  Their long narrow end allows you to reach dust on wide wheels.  You need a brush like this for dust because the cotton gloves just don't do it, especially if the dust is a few weeks old.  The only thing you need to keep in mind is the tip has a rolled piece of metal on the end so you need to be careful about scratching the wheel when inserting and removing the brush.
Utilitarian. Gets the job done!  If it came with a rubberized tip, this would be awesome. The bristles are coarse, which is good for tough grime, bad for delicate wheel finishes. The brush itself is ridged, so bending is somewhat difficult to get around corners. It's hard to get the whole thing in the bucket of suds, so use a hose to rinse it. Overall, it's better than some of the more expensive options.
This baby right here is an excellent  wheel scrubbers for trucks, some convertibles, and sedans.  Using at the same time with some tire cleaners, it made cleaning out the wheels and rims a breeze. However two this I didn't like about the giant furry mace. One, it has a metal clip on the top of the brush, so if you're not careful, you can do serious damage. Two, it's huge! I mean you can sword fight with someone with this thing when the time comes. It can be handy for large tires, but damn, it's like the brush when manufactured took steroids. But overall it is a nice LARGE brush of the century.
I received one of these years ago as a gift to clean the spokes on my bike.  It worked great and lasted over a decade.  I also used it on the wheels of my cars.  It really makes quick work of the dirt you can't reach or would spend a lot of time trying to get to.  I just replaced that old one and the new one is identical; very good quality.  Be aware that the core of the brush is a heavy twisted wire that terminates in a loop at the very end of the brush.  Be careful that you don't scratch your wheels with this exposed wire loop.  I personally never had a problem with it but am careful, being aware of the potential for scratches.  If I was designing this I would have coated the end of the wire in rubber. (thus the 4-stars)  I definitely recommend this to those who really like their vehicles clean.
This brush cleans well and is large enough to easily clean wider wheels like 8 or 9inches wide.However, the downside is that the tip of the brush has the metal spine exposed and, if you're not careful, can damage the finish of your precious wheel if you're not careful when about to put it between the spokes.You can't really tell that from the pictures, and it may seem minor, but it takes a lot of thought each time you're about to clean your wheel to remember to be extra careful using it.
I did a bunch or reserach on these wheel brushes and found it had good reviews.  I am very happy with it!
The overall length is 16 inches. About 4 inches for the handle. So yes there are plenty of bristles to clean the wheel. Finally, I can clean my Dodge Charger 5 spokes wheels perfectly. It reaches everywhere. And that seller sells it for less than another one on Amazon sold as a "16 inch" brush. Well this one is also 16 inches and it is Prime eligible. I wish I had that brush years ago. Give it a try.
Cheapo replacement for the one I wore out.  But the tip has not cover on the metal wire wrapped around the bristles so I can pretty much guarantee it'll scratch the tire.  Until I find a good rubber tip to glue on it won't get used on my wheels.  Not worth sending back. This is not the one to buy until they fix that little tip.
I enjoy keep in all of my cars and trucks detailed and find that this brush works great on my wheels no mater what design or shape they are in .
I bought 2 of these.1 the key works with ease and turns no problem, the other one needs a little fiddling but comes off in less than a second still.Fits the proper 1/2&#34;Comes with a plastic cover to cover the key hole as well.4 stars because I feel they both should operate flawlessly like the better one.
Easy to use. Keeps my trailer hitch safe and secure.Has a cover over the key hole to protect from rain and dirt.
Bought a new a Ram and the people around here will steal anything thats not secure.  I sleep well at night knowing this will secure anything I attach to my Ram.  Thanks!
Not bad but the bar seemed a little long to me. I kind of like the master lock version better.
You certainly don't want your expensive rack to get stolen.  This is cheap insurance.  Fits well and works well.  I do not leave my rack on all the time so this lock/pin does not see harsh weather or repeated rains.  For me, it works exceptionally well.  I like the fact that after it is unlocked, to relock doesn't require the key, you can just insert it back on and it is locked.
Lock snaps on easily without key. Has plastic cover to keep the wet and dirt out. I thought that this would be gone in no time, I was wrong. Six months always on my vehicle and I run through the auto car wash that brushes it every time and all is well. It's a tad too long I have found. But better too long than too short. Highly recommended.
This Curt Manufacturing 5/8 in. Hitch Lock works great so far.  I have not had any issues with it yet.
Fits perfect along with my curt receiver. What I love the most is that you don't need to have the key on the lock in order to lock it on the pin. The provided dust cover is great to prevent any water and dust away from the internal mechanisms. Haven't had any problems yet. The keys are tough unlike some other ones that break when turning them.
This is a nice solid hitch lock.  The rubber cover over the lock fits tight and does a great job keeping the mud and water out.
Well built with a weatherproof cover; comes with two keys and will protect your hitch or what ever you need to protect.
I purchased this to replace a Reese TowPower Professional grade hitch lock that fell apart after three months of use.  This Curt lock works smoothly and feels very sturdy.  The end cap fits perfectly and should not easily come off during normal use.  I am pleased with this purchase.
I have been using this for about 3 months now without any issues. even after being covered with rain dirt and mud I had no trouble unlocking the lock. I also had no problem with the lock interfering with attaching my safety chain.
Great price and is what I was expecting it to be and do. Not sure how long it will last, time will tell.
Works as listed. I heated mine up with a blow dryer and stuck it on the ball of the hitch to cool. Basically a better than sent fit.
I'm using this as a 2 inch ball cover. Seems fine. Don't know there's much you can say about this except that it looks like it's made as a substantial product.
best price I have found, beats grease on pants. Less bruise on shin when bumping, Ha Ha. Cheaper than Reese brand.
I always have a hitch on all my SUVs & also like to keep it greased & ready to use but this isn't good for wifes clothes so I needed a simple solution to protect the Hitch Ball from damage & grease transfer. This one works well for both problems & I have both sizes.
This item does what it's supposed to do, protect the tow ball.  I'm very satisfied with my purchase.  The price was reasonable and it works.  What more can you ask for?
it is just a cover and would be great except it is to tight to get onto a 2 inch ball
Fits fine on a greased 2&#34; ball.  The plastic or vinyl is very flexibile, and can be squeezed to create a slight vacuum to help it glide into place. Otherwise the trapped bubble of air underneath needs to be worked out before it fully seats.Recommended.
The perfect extension for the fifth wheel camper.  I needed just a few more inches to allow the bike rack to extend past the bumper-mounted spare tire.  Solid construction with good welds like the other Curt products I use.
I purchased this to be able to attach a high-end hydraulic assisted bike rake on the back of my Jeeps (JKs) with the rear tire still on.  It fit perfectly and teamed with the Bolt Lock BLT7018448 5/8'' Receiver Lock (Keyed specifically for your line of vehicle) it can be kept in the Jeep and my daughter doesn't need anything but her car key.The extender is exactly as advertised, well made, fit perfectly and does eactly what it is inteded for.
I agree with the other reviewers who state the unit is ugly.  the welds are bulky and uneven.  However, the welds seem stout and I am sure it will perform just fine.  After all, this is about as low-tech as you can get.  I will disagree with other reviewers who say the unit does not move/sway.  I have a 5/8&#34; pin in it and my bike rack moves pretty substantially.  I will be getting an adapter to remedy this problem.  Bottom line for me for this product was price.  I am overall pleased with Curt and this product.
I needed this to move my front mounted winch out from the bumper. It did the job very nicely just as I had hoped it would. I feel pretty sure that it will hold up as I use it for winching. It would probably work fine for towing as well but I haven't used it for that.
Bought this to set back our tow bar on our motorhome.  I work great, but is a little sloppy side to side and top to bottom compared to our old rusted extender.
I put this on my hitch attached to my camper to get room past my spare tire when hauling bikes.  Highly reconned!!
I needed this to clear my rear mounted spare tire for trailering. These were impossible to find locally but of course Amazon had them. A must have for SUV's with a rear mounted spare.
Used this on A  Brute force 750.  Extended the rear hitch out past the back bsket.  No need to crawl under and past the basket to get the hitch.  iIt is solid thru and thru.  It is not a hollow tube.  But a solid piece of piece of steel with the holes drilled in it, where the hitch mets the extender.  I have used this extender on my F250 and Dodge aslo to haul a 7000 lb. piece of equipment.  No problems whatsoever with it. Built tuff and made to take on a ram.  You won't be disappointed if you buy this and need the extra length of extension for your hitch on any vehicle.
Ordered this to put on my travel trailer so I could tow my little 2 man boat. Very high quality and fit perfectly with one minor alteration. The bolts were too long so I had to cut off about an inch for it to fit properly. Worked perfectly. Highly recommend
nothing difficult about this little critter.  Goes on fast and works great.  I would recommend this time and time again
Didn't realize that this had a 3500LB capacity and 350 FT LBS for the tongue weight.  I'm using this on my travel trailer so I can take all our bicycles which all three bikes and bike rack make up a tongue weight of 180lbs.  A great buy
Perfect for adding our bike rack to the rear bumper of our RV.  Very well built...easy to install.  Nice tight fit and secures attachment with very little movement. Plus, it frees up the bed of your truck for more needed items.
Purchased to hold our bike rack on the back of our TT. Easy to install with just two bolts. Has stayed in place and does what it was designed to do.
Tore the bumper on my RV. I do not blame this thing for the problem, the bumper just could not handle the force of two bikes and a bike rack ( total weight about 80 lbs ) running down a bumpy road. It started to tear a hole near the weld to the frame of the trailer. Did not notice it for a few days until I could see the bike rack sagging. Don't get me wrong, this thing is built VERY solidly ( and mounts perfectly to a 4&#34; square bumper ). I am really writing this to warn others thinking of using this as I did. You really need someone to weld something to the bumper to make it stronger ( or replace the bumper with a stronger one ) before using this, or maybe use a very light bike rack with a very light bike.
I bought this to go on the back of our camper bumper.  Very well built and easy to install.  Easy to adjust if needed.  Highly recommend!!!!
Just what I wanted! Very well made and just what I expected!  It is great for my Aluminum cargo carrier on the back of my 5'ver for carrying wood to the campground.
Works perfect for what it is designed for. We bought this for the bumper on our travel trailer. It was a breeze to install and holds up very well. Most times we just use it for a 4 bike rack but I have used it a couple of times to pull or 3 person Kawasaki Jetski as well (~1,000 lbs). I would definately recommend this to anyone.
This is the best Trailer Bumper Mount. It fit perfectly. Mounted easily. VERY VERY well made. Finish is awesome. Buy this one. =)
Works great. All the horror stories I read on this made me skeptical. I use mine to pull my fishing boat. Most negative reviews I read dealt with bike racks. What would you expect having that much leverage twisting on a thin rv bumper???
Just the ticket for towing my 7000 GVWR trailer. even though I would have preferred a longer shank, this will work just fine. Now all I need to find is a 7000 pound extension.
I bought two of these one for mysely and the other for my son inlaw. Both will be used for a flag pole mount on the back of his truck an the other on my motorhome. Put threaded rod through the ball mount hole ant PVC pipe on the threaded rod .It works out great.Cant beat the price for this mount and PVC is cheap.
I have used it only a few times so I can only give a partial opinion on this hitch. It is of solid construction and has performed admirally so far. I couldn't get the ball to release from the trailer hitch and had to pull the pin and drive off the hitch mount. It survived that without a scratch. The only problem is that it's a four inch drop and as it turns out I needed just a two inch drop. That's not the fault of the hitch.
Appears very well built with a heavy powder coating which should last a long time hopefully??  Ball attachment was simple with a few large pipe wrenches and feels like it should last for years!
It is exactly as it is advertised. It seems well built. If this is what you need just buy it.
I installed these on my 2005 GMC Envoy XL with brush guard and they work and look great. They really light up the offroad trails and remote roads at night. I used to have the very large Hella offroad lights and these are just as bright.Installation is no more or less difficult than other lights. There's no magic here - you have to run 12V and ground to the lights, the relay, to the battery, etc.
These lights are just what they say and if you want good off road driving lights you know you need to spend the bucks.  Wiring was complete and simple, lights worked just like they were suppose too.  I don't plan to be driving off road at night but these are on there just in case.  Like they say you only have to need them once and they paid for themselves.
Typical KC kit.  Easy instructions, miles of wire for any application, beautiful finish on the lights.  They are bright and look good!  Worth the $$$
I have had these for years, got these new, they are noticably lighter than the old ones, and have the made in taiwan sticker on them, no longer us made.  Wiring is lighter gauge than the old ones I ahve.
Installed these with the KC windsheild mounts on my 90 YJ. The harness and instructions were really easy to follow .Installed in less than 2 hours with everything tied down and hidden. My wife and I were out in the jeep looking at Christmas lights and I was on a dark road and flipped them on. WOW! These 130W daylighters definetely light up the road. They were so bright my wife asked if they were legal.Several things, you have two grounds, make sure they are grounded to a good metal surface, I used sandpaper to remove the paint about the size of a dime for my grounding points both in the engine compartment.If you have a narrow mounting location, you may want to consider the slim lights, these are heavy and shaped like a motorcyle headlight.The only negative thing I can say is that the light covers with the smiley face went out in the 80's. I painted mine black and placed a vinyl KC sticker on them. Looks much better, but still ordered the KC rock light covers so you can turn them on at any time without removing them. (5 stars if they would have come with a rock guard cover, instead of the solid yellow smiley faces.)
I've been using this stuff for years, and i've have never used anything that did such a good job with no streaking.  One trick you probably know is using wadded up newspaper as your cloth, its abrasive, doesn't leave lint, and never any streaks.
I get so frustrated using that &#34;blue stuff&#34; to clean my auto windows. It seems like that it does not matter how many times I clean the glass by going back over the glass time and again , I always end up with a streaked windshield. While this cleaner is not perfect and I sometimes have to go back over my initial cleaning it does do a very good job. I have both the canned and bottle spray units on my shelf in the garage and they both perform equally as well.
No streaks, goes on easy and comes off clean.  Microfiber towels to wipe off the excess, leaving your car's glass spotless.  Highly recommended.
I used this on some of my mirrors that are so difficult to get clean without leaving streaks and it worked like a charm.  I am very pleased because everything else I have used has made the mirror cleaning quite a little project.  Would recommend.
This is the only glass cleaner I use in my vehicles.  It is TINT SAFE and is the best at cleaning glass, inside and out.  Sprays on as a light foam, so it sticks to the glass without running.
I was putting together a car detailing kit and decided to try Stoner Invisible Glass Cleaner. I also orderedZwipes Microfiber Cleaning Clothsso I managed to avoid a common mistake with Stoner Invisible Glass... that is, I only used clean microfiber cloths rather than paper towels or other rags. Used with the proper cloth, this stuff is much better than ammonia-based cleaners.
This is very handy to have around the house.  Works on any glass surface and truly makes it look invisible.  Just spray and wipe away in straight lines with a towel.  Works well on car windows too, and is safe to use on tinted windows.
Bought this after reading a few reviews, I hate dirty, streaky windows in my truck. This product works well. I have had my best results cleaning the glass with a microfiber towel.
Product is good and cleans in a reasonable way. Would recommend using a no link soft rag. This was an add on and the price was good. Hope this helps.
Invisible glass is an awesome glass cleaner!! We first bought it for cleaning the windows on our cars but have since began to use it for any glass. We use it to clean our mirrors, glass coffee tables, interior windows and more. It truly does make the glass INVISIBLE. This works really well for cleaning the windows on your car between washes or right after washing to make sure that the windows are streak free.We highly recommend Invisible Glass and will be buying more soon.
Forget windex, this stuff is much better, no streaking and like the name says it really does make the glass invisible!
I bought this due to positive reviews but never again . I leaves streaks and smudging no matter how I tried to use it even applied more than once. Tried it on window glass in the home, mirrors, and car glass, all the same result.  Really wanted it to work but plain water would do better. I rarely write a review this negative but this one earned it.
All my life I have been using different versions of Windex or ammonia or home-brews or bon-ami - this surely beats them all!!! It can be found locally at Kragen's and PepBoys. This cleaner and a couple micro-fiber towels do a great job inside or outside windows and lenses.
I use Stoner's Invisible Glass strictly when detailing cars (others or my own). It doesn't streak and applies well. It's alcohol based, so its safe for window tint (unlike ammonia-based products such as Windex). Unlike other Stoner's products, it can be purchased in a traditional spray bottle rather than a pressurized can. Great product!
I ordered this with the Stoner glass cleaning tool to handle the inside windshield of my PU truck.  It worked fine.  Order was delivered on time and undamaged.
I use this in combination with the microfiber glass towels -Viking Diamond Weave Microfiber Windshield & Glass Cloth - 2 Packand I was really shocked at how well this works! It really does make a difference over regular glass cleaner. Gives you a streak-free clean that somehow really does look cleaner than the "other" glass cleaners.
I've been using Invisible Glass for several years. While shopping at the local auto parts store I asked the clerk for his recommendation for a good auto glass cleaner. One that cleans well, but doesn't leave streaks. He walked me back and handed me  this. He said it's a little more expensive, but it works wonders. Since then we use nothing else, even in the home. And since they have the cleaner with the built in water repellent we use it on any exterior glass. Just follow the simple directions and ta taaaa, sparkling clean glass and with the exterior not only does the water just shed right off, but they seem to stay cleaner  longer.
I detail cars all the time and have used many products with limited or even disappointing results, but Invisible Glass beats them all.  It's almost like using distilled water (which works very well for mild cleaning), and for more moderate dirt removal it may take more than one application, but it cleans exceptionally well.  I use it for auto and home.  It's one of the only products that can be used on tinted or treated glass, it doesn't streak, and if used regularly it almost polishes the glass.  It's a great product!
It was mentioned to me by a friend that he used Royal Purple in his rigs, and thought I would try it out. I am glad I did. My Suzuki has 97,000 miles on the motor and it has never, I really mean never run so smooth. We get a steady mile and a half more in gas milage. I am going to change my Tahoe and my GMC over when it is time.
Royal Purple motor oil. Only the best for my baby! I just wish it wasn't so darn expensive, but amazon had the best price that I could find.
Royal purple has always been my go to performance oil for all my automotive needs.They have a great reputation.
THE BEST MOTOR OIL MADE TODAY. Full synthetic with an ACTUAL, noticeable horsepower and torque boost. No false promises here. Although expensive($8-$9 per quart at some places), IT IS WORTH IT. HIGHEST possible recommendation!!
Our mower, chainsaw, and snow blower all use this oil so I got a big thing of it to last for a while.  It does the job for small engines that use it and it's good in a variety of weather conditions from hot to cold.
This is the best synthetic oil you can get for a reasonable price- exotics like Amsoil are slightly better but they cost an arm and a leg.  Amazon has a good deal on this oil especially if you buy the big jug.
Decided to give this a try and I do not regret it at all. Car runs a lot smoother and could not beat the deal that I got a free Royal Purple filter as well. Highly recommend!
Yup.  Passed the 200k mark 2 weeks ago and its still running smooth as silk thanks to Royal Purple.  If you are trying to justify the cost, you can go easily go 5,000 miles between oil changes and the old oil is still almost as pretty as new.  Compare that to the house oil from your local parts store.  RP wins hands-down.  Right away my engine ran a lot smoother and is still doing so through the heat of summer.  Think about how much less wear and tear will be going on in your engine with it running smoother.  Try it.  You'll never go back to another brand again. I really should be getting paid for spreading my love of Royal Purple.
Buying a case is the way to go! I use this stuff in my 98 BMW M3 and quiets the lifter tick nicely. These engines are notorious for having a ton of mechanical noise and the RP helps a lot in reducing this. I run 10w-40 year long and have no problems. It may be a tiny bit thin when warm but the wear protection it gives is great.
got this oil to do an oil change on a rebel 250 and has worked great so far.  first time using this brand and so far no complaints
Came in the original box, no damage, no issues. Great price, way cheaper than any store around me. Runs really well in my car.No cons
This is the recommended oil for my little honda's manual transmission. As far as i can tell its running as smooth as ever. I'll be changing it again soon since it was ran with the original oil for way too long by the original owners. I'll be using this oil for the second change since using it as a month long flush oil its done great.
I didn't have any differential problems or noises that I know of in my '98 BMW 323is, but at 137,000 miles and not changed for at least 100k miles I figured I'd do this and the manual trans fluid.  I'll review the trans fluid there (Royal Purple Synchromax) since that made a huge difference.  My car runs much quieter and smoother after the fluid changes.  I can not really tell if this oil made a difference in the differential since I did several changes at once but it definitely didn't make things worse.  The old differential oil came out completely clear and was as much fluid as expected so I'm pretty sure things have been running as expected back there.After I had already ordered this I found that some BMW owners run Mobil 1 gear oil in the differential since it is said to run cooler there than RP or Redline oil.  So I could have saved several dollars per quart and maybe gotten better performance, but I don't drive the car hard so this will do just fine. 5 stars since my car is running so much better that I'll give some credit to this oil.Update 06/2012 - Several tanks of gas later and my MPG is higher.  Since I replaced the trans fluid and this at the same time, not sure which or if both made the difference.  Really improved the highway MPG, and it just did 32.09 MPG, doing the relatively flat round trip Los Angeles to Palm Springs plus some other mainly highway driving. My car has been getting 23 to 24 for the last two years and maybe 25 to 26 before that.  I've only hit 32 mpg once before in August 2009, and have had only 6 tanks of gas get over 30 mpg in the almost 12 years I've owned the car.  Stop and go driving is just slightly higher than before though as the prior three tanks of gas were 23.03 mpg, 27.38 mpg, 24.99 mpg.
It took awahile for this order to get fulfilled, but it is worth the wait for the price. It is exactly what it is suppose to be. RP takes the cake!
On the advice of a friend, I replaced my Toyota Tacoma's manual transmission gear oil with this Royal Purple Max. From the start, I encountered poor shifting and excessive gear noise. After two months the shifting got so bad, I opted to replace it with the previous gear oil I was using (Redline MT90). Now my shifting is back to being easier, with the gear noise gone... For the price of this oil it should have performed better than it did - I was very disappointed.
Noticeable difference almost instantly.  I was surprised.  I am somewhat crazy when it comes to maintenance on my vehicles.  I reagularly do the required maintenance before it is required.  When I changed the gear lube in my axles (front and rear) it felt like someone had &#34;unlocked&#34; the truck.  there was a noticeable difference in drag. The vehicle seems to accelerate easier, and less pedal was required to keep it moving.  I knew this was good stuff, but I was pleasantly surprised after changing the oil.  I notice very similar results after every engine oil change.  no joke.
The way to go when gear oil needs to be changed. Royal Purple is a high end oil manufacturer and the free shipping through Amazon make the decision much easier.
I can't say that you'll have the same results, but my experience with this stuff was great. I put this in the differential of my 1994 Mustang GT. The rear end was a little bit whiny. So I figured that I'd better change the fluid. So I did. with this stuff. Now the car seems to gain RPM's a little faster, and the whine noise from the rear end is gone. It even seems to burn out a little easier when I take it to the track. Maybe the old fluid was just finally wore out, who knows. But I had a good experience with this stuff so I thought I'd share.
I used this to fill up my 1998 BMW 328i final drive unit (BMW speak for the differential).  It works well, it's been in there about six months and haven't noticed any problems.
Perfect gear oil.Adds confidence knowing your have the best oil possible in your vehicle. Price was very fair and free shipping. Prime!
After having consistent problems with shops who say that they have done the work, only to find that my diff has not been serviced, I do my own work now.  It's not difficult on my vehicle, and I know it's being done right.  I've read up on different lubricants, and Royal Purple gets consistently high marks.I did a service recently and when I drained my diff after 15,000 miles, the Royal Purple looked like it did going in.  No breakdown, despite some pretty good use.
I could tell the difference it made in my limited slip differential . It was quieter and seemed smother . to soon to tell if it made a difference in mileage . Yes I would recommend it to a friend .Paul
You found it - There is no better after my testing - this is definately not biased unless Royal Purple want to send me some free, lol
Recently replaced all the oil in my front dif/rear diff/ and transfer case on an 07 Tundra. Went from Mobile1 to this, and noticed a slight improvement in noise.I'd use this again.
I've used this as well as the 75W140 Royal Purple in both of my vehicles diffs (Liberty, Aspen).  They have worked well as a replacement for the OEM fluid, and have no complaints.  This isn't a magical gear lube, so I don't pretend to see all of the claims that I've heard from this stuff.  I haven't seen my MPG's go up, and it's not like I've put 500,000 miles on my diffs with this stuff in it.
This is great oil I use RP in all my vehicles from air compressor up to truck. This gear oil works great in my 05 F150's front diff.
I bought this to polish chrome wheels.  The PowerBall Mini is a huge letdown.  The foam started disintegrating almost immediately when run across any angle of the wheels surface.  The foam is simply too weak, it rips and shreds.  I would only use this on very smooth surfaces that have no angles to them, ridges, bumps, etc.  But if you're polishing something that simple in shape - you don't need this in the first place.  Grab a rag and you'll be done a lot faster.
When ordering this ball I didn't realize the dimensions. I know they come in two sizes, but didn't realize how big it really is until I opened the amazon box today...no biggie, it'll still work. If your planning on doing rims or small areas, you should get the little guy! Great buy though.......
Not the best.  It was to large for the job.
I should have had one of these long ago for my Harley and Diesel truck but was too tight to buy one. I did the old elbow grease job.I didn't think my battery powered drill would hold-up and I didn't wanna mess with a cord. The ball knocks the job out quick with my electric drill and when I get done with my Harley it gives me more time to ride and let momma luv on me from behind.The thing should last forever and the red makes it easy to spot by an old man.buy one or two and quit thinking stupid like I was.
This is a great produce for polishing up those special auto rims. The job is made simple with this product and Mothers Mimi Ball is a must.
The only reason this doesn't receive five stars is because it can be used in only one direction.  This isn't a problem, yet, but over time, it's going to wear on one side of the tool than the other.  Additionally, you may want to use a different direction on your drill, the typical tool in which to mount this polishing ball, and you can't use reverse on a drill with this polishing ball.Still, with this, about a teaspoon of plastic scratch remover (used on pinball machine playfields to polish them) and 10 minutes of prep/cleanup per headlight, this little ball got the somewhat cloudy headlight lenses on my wife's car back to crystal clear.  Sure, I could have done the same thing with 1,500 and 2,000 grit sandpaper, which I have, but this was much quicker, not messy, and took almost no effort.Now...to polish the rather large aluminum wheels on our diesel-pusher motorhome.  At least this will make it less of a chore.I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to clean.  It's almost spongy in its texture.
I have really bad arthritis in my fingers, so now almost everything thing I polish is w/a machine, and these balls. Granted, they don't last a long time, but for me they are a life (finger) saver.
works great to polish all sorts og goods, and easy to bring back old chrome, alum, and make pretty again
This is probably the best wax I've used.  Works great on my black truck.
I am not a professional car detailer,but have bought and still have numerous different car waxes.I have come to the conclusion that if it says Mothers on it it's the best you're going to find.This wax leaves a deep liquid look shine.Works even better if you first clay bar your vehicle with Mothers clay bar kit.
This stuff is close, if not better, than Harley-Davidson S-100 paste wax. Liquid wax hazes fast and wipes -off easily for a brilliant shine that will make you proud. It's good stuff. The Harley S-100 is the best base for this wax too.I finally found a combination I'll stick with. Get the Harley S-100 online or your local Harley Dealer. It's about $15 and tax but lasts quite a while. Just depends on how much stuff you wanna wax!
I used the trial version of this wax when I bought the Mothers Powerball, and it was awesome. When I ran out, I bought the Mothers Carnauba Wax, which was fine, but I didn't get the high gloss shine that I wanted. I bought the SynWax and I will never go back to any other type of wax. The finish on my car is already pretty good with very little swirls, and this makes my finish look almost flawless. It applies very easily and comes up very easily and there is never any leftover residue. I would recommend this wax to anyone that details their own car.
this stuff applies very easily and it lasts a long time. I use spray wax to make it last even longer.synthetic stuff is the way to go..
This wax is the ULTIMATE speed wax for the bang for the buck.  I use synwaxes primarily when the weather does not permit standing outside for prolonged periods of time such as in cold/damp weather & such because they are much easier to apply & remove.  Have compared this product to the Meguiars NXT and for 1 Mothers is cheaper, 2.) the ease of use.  I will admit though that the Meguiars product does offer more shine which is fine and all in summer months for that showcar look but here where I live in IL all I am asking for is protection in the long cold snowy salty winters and this one does the job hands down no contest!  I stock these bottles in my garage basically by the case. lol.  Don't forget to get a good carnuba wax though! I look to do that at least 3-4 times per year, but syn waxes hold up longer.  Shine & coverage = get carnuba (weather & time permitting).  length of protection/durability get syn wax.
If you got the Mother's Powerball then this is the product to use.  I'm no expert in detailing but i got my Car as proof and finish product for this very nice Wax.  It's very shiny and very glossy.  It's even better when i first take my car out from the dealership.  I just hope this wax last longer than Carnauba.  I would highly recommend this product if you havent tried it yet.  Just make sure you dont wax the black sides of the car and if you do, wipe it so it wont leave a white residue.
After reading the reviews, I decided to give this a shot.  It's easy to apply and remove and smells a lot better than the Carnauba wax by mother, but it did not provide the same glossy "wet" look.  I prefer the Ca Gold Carnauba wax over this one.I have about 4 bottles of Wax and I always seem to go back to the Carnauba wax.  The other 3 are just collecting dust.Read my reviews and see pics of my review below.Mothers 05750 California Gold Pure Brazilian Carnauba Wax Liquid - 16 oz (Ultimate Wax System, Step 3)
This is a great Mother's product and very easy to apply and polish. Seems to me like I am going through the bottle rather quickly. It works really well for a quick surface shine. Therefore if you want to touch the hood up quickly for a car show, it will do a great job. I dod not know how long the application will last. It also removes surface grit and contaminants very well.
This is a good spray wax, but I wouldn't, and don't, use it by itself. After a good wash and claying, I use Mothers carnauba wax then after buffing that off, go over with this. I do this to build an extra layer of shine and protection. The carnauba wax is what provides most of the shine and protection, but this light coat only adds to it and helps it last longer. Can't go wrong with Mothers.
I am a detail nut and this product works well. Dont use as a cleaner though but as a quick touch up shine. Much better than Meguiars.
This is a great product, love using this....but why the huge price increase?? almost doubled?I use this product on my side windows as well, works as good as Rainex. It really make water bead really good.I really recommend this product when it was going for $5.99....currently double?? I can get it cheaper at the local stores.My last 2 orders for this product either arrived damaged (leaked all over the place) or undeliverable because it was damaged. Still waiting more than a few months for Amazon.com to address this. 2007 2008 2009 2010 i spent more than $4000 buying stuff on Amazon.com  2011....have yet to spend a penny at Amazon.com. All cuz Amazon did not want to address a $12 purchase.
As long as you follow the directions, this gives excellent long lasting results.  It's very important to let the wax dry a bit before you start wiping it off, and then it looks like glass...
AWESOME PRODUCTS....~!!
A little goes a long way with the Mothers FX Tire Shine.  It is easy to apply and I would recommend wiping it with a towel after you have let it sit for awhile.  It doesn't last as long as I had expected and requires frequent applications.
The results are the same you would get with similar products from other brands. The shine stays for a few days only. The bottle, however, looks way better than those of competing products.
I got this based on all the reviews I read.  I read other reviews of tire shine and they said they didn't last long, sprayed everywhere after application, shine not good.  So I got this stuff and the bottle was bigger than I thought.  You get a pretty big bottle for the price.  And this is quality stuff.  Just spray it on tires like it says and let it sit for like 5-6 minutes.  It pretty much dries to the tire, with some drips that you can wipe away with a microfiber cloth.  Excellent shine to it as well, close to the Tire Foam I used to use which is what I was looking for.  I still think Tire Foam shines a little better, but this stuff will probably last longer than that stuff only lasted a few days.  This stuff is thick and feels like it should keep the tire looking black for at least a week.  Mother's is a great brand.  This is my first experience with them and they remind me of another company and for like 1/4 of the price.
These are above average tire shine that does not dry up my tires. They can be hard to apply because most of it drips and falls to the ground. The price is a bit high
...in a crowded market of a commodity product.Does a very good job in loosening (if not completely removing) road grime and brake dust before rinsing and washing with a brush or cloth.Wheels: you gotta clean 'em if you're washing your car. This cleaner helps take some of the work of that job.
this stuff is great. It cuts through brake dust that soap wont even touch.however you cant really just leave it on for 30 seconds and spray it off. if the cleaner sits on one area too long, it begins to dry, and leaves behind residue. I find its best to use a couple sprays of this on a sponge with a liberal dose of water. Rinse quickly, do multiple scrub downs if needed. You only need a spritz, so its not like you have to worry about wasting product.Use it right and you'll love it. a bottle lasts me at least 6 months of almost weekly washing.
I recently bought Mother's wheel brushMothers Wheel & Wheel Well Long Handled Brushand after using it posted a review with before and after photos.  The brush did a nice job, but left a couple of tough stains behind.  I purchased Mothers foaming wheel cleaning to see if I can get those tough stains out.I covered the wheel with the foam, brushed with mother's wheel brush for about 2-3 minutes, and hosed off. Wow - no more stains!  I was impressed. And, of course, it did an excellent job with the break dust.  I have never seen my wheel that clean with just the car washing solution. I recently had back surgery, and still have discomfort when bending down.  So it is very important for me to find products that work well without putting much strain on my back.  I am very pleased!I am attaching before and after photos of the wheel, as well as a photo of the bottle next to a pen for relative size.  I will post an update when the bottle is empty. It will be interesting to know exactly how many washes I get out of the bottle.  I did not think I used much of the bottle content, the bottle still feels heavy.Note on price: I purchased this product on Amazon for under $8, as I am writing this review the price is $10.  So the price on the on this product fluctuates. There is a nice online tool that I use to help catch a good price on Amazon, this tool is called  "Online Price Alert".  This tool will send you an email when the Amazon item price reaches the target price range that you specify. If you search on "online price alert" in Google it will be come up at the top.  I find this tool to be very helpful.
excellent product, cleans very well, sometimes you need to use a microfiber brush, but even with the brush , the dirt becomes very loose and easy to remove.pros: cleans very well, safe with no complications, non acidiccons: bottle enough for barley to finish on time clean, you need at least two bottles to finish the job well, including the wheels behind the spokes, thats i why i don't give it afullmark.
I bought this for my first vehicle not knowing my tires really don't even need it. but I gave it to a relative and it worked great on his wheels so it's 5 stars :
This stuff works awesome, but it it doesn't go very far. It really penetrates into the grime on the wheel, but you do go through it quickly. I will be buying more of this in the spring!
Brake dust, oil, dirt, grim...gone! This product claims to not involve scrubbing but I would go that far. What is does well is that it removes grim very well and with a little elbow grease pulls the grim right out. If you use the long handle Mothers brush, you dont even have to bend over. Just spray it on and scrub a little. Bam. Sparkling wheels
The product was very good at cleaning the wheels and tires, and in some scenarios I had to use a tire brush for the tougher stains. But it did its job. However you can run out of wheel cleaner in these bottles relatively quickly, because the product is highly compressed into that one bottle. I don't know why but sometimes it would be hard to pull the trigger, where I had cramps. The trigger resists, where at first applying the product was moderately easy for fresh hands. But after a while, it means ow. Oh well, the product did it was supposed to, I applied protectant after, so happy day.
Spray this on your wheels and tires, wait a few minutes, then spray it off. Shine is incredible. I do still use a wheel brush, but I'm really particular when it comes to my car. Good product, very effective at cleaning tires and wheels. Cuts through the grease and grime.
... if the delivery mechanism was able to spray it on in a wide pattern rather than a spot pattern. It took numerous squeezes of the sprayer to get adequate coverage. The product itself was excellent.
To  costly abd doesn't work any better or easier  than a brush  anddetergent to clean the tires and rims.  WOULD  NOT  buy again.
I used this to clean an expensive set of whitewall tires before selling a classic car at auction and it was a big mistake! I bought this because I wanted to use something safe to clean the whitewalls. It did OK on the white area, as in it didn't ruin it. The black part of the tires ended up discolored with streaks. It looked horrible! The tires looked better before I used it!409 and Simple Green do a better of cleaning than this product.I will never trust this brand for any product.
Does a great job at cleaning the wheels... Yes you still need to use a brush/sponge/wand whatever to &#34;touch&#34; the dirt, however the wheels do seem to spray clean easily for awhile after being cleaned with this.
Spray this stuff on, rinse it off, and tada you have sparkling wheels.  Works great with painted rims, not sure on how it works on other styles of rims.
I've been looking for a good tire cleaner since Meguiars discontinued making an aerosol tire cleaner. I gave this a try and I love it. I still use a brush to really work it in and it gets all the old tire shine off and you get a really nice all natural rubber finish. It also did a great job with the rims. Again I always use a brush to get into the nooks and crannies.Overall I love it, will buy more, but like others have said it doesn't go far. I have about 1/3 left after doing two cars. They really need to make a bulk jug so I can just refill the applicator bottle. Since I scrub the tires anyway I may adjust the amount I use. I went pretty heavy since it was the first time using it.
its not a bad product. gets rid of dirt, just make sure you scrub the wheels to remove excess dirt as it doesnt get rid of ALL of the dirt from spraying
This stuff works - is all I can say about it. I bought some used rims that had brake dust literally caked onto the wheels. I really didn't think this stuff was going to work, but it did! Note, I did use a brush for physical agitation after spraying the wheels with this. I don't think this is the kind of thing you can spray, let sit and just rinse away the brake dust if it's pretty severe. For light circumstances, I think that would work fine.
Ok, iguess, didn't really impress me.no better than my old standby bleech white.as always shipping& delivery was great.ive only used it once on my bike
I have used this product when I wash and detail my car twice so far and it is amazing. Just spray it and let it be (use a brush if you want) and all of the dirty brake dust will come right off. I have my wheels plasti dipped and it did not ruin any part of the dip. I will probably buy this product over and over again. Be sure to wash your wheels before anything else!
this product does work, like all the rave reviews have said.  What I don't like is it doesn't go a long way, so that's why 3 stars. I was only able to do 7 wheels (so I couldn't even finish 2 cars) and at the end I had to use a brush to get the last of the small stuff out.  So doesn't completely work by itself just spraying off and doesn't go a long way
Mothers makes great products. This is by far the best wheel cleaner I have ever used. Just spray, let sit for 30 sec. and wash off dirt and grime. BUT you do have to use a wheel brush to get off excess dirt which is not a problem.
I use this on my AWD wheels which are always full of brake dust, grime, crap, etc. You spray this bad boy on for 30sec and then use a good brush to scrub away for about 30sec. Rinse and voila! Wheels look brand spankin new! I could eat off it if I had to! This isn't spray and rinse folks...you will have to put some effort but believe me, you wont be disappointed!
I had sanded off part of the clear coat around my wheels to deal with some curb rash I had gotten. I had previously used &#34;Bleche White&#34; as my wheel/tire cleaner, and it didn't effect the bare aluminum on my wheel. This stuff does, it left weird white tarnish marks all over the part with bare metal. I can get it off by sanding further with fine grit sandpaper and then polishing with metal polish, but it's really annoying.That being said, it really cleans your tires and wheels well. Better than &#34;Bleche White&#34; for sure, but I will probably stop using it for my car because of the metal corrosion issue.
My 09 Corvette periodically gets a total detail with wheels, tires, suspension and everything under the car. This is my go to product to remove road grime and bring back the &#34;like new&#34; condition the car. Depend on this product to take care of the really hard cleanup projects for you car.
cleans very well removes brake dust and stuck on grime..need to spray on and let soak scrub with brush..hose off..if stains are old or been on rims for awhile you will have to do a second clean but it will remove 95% of grime
not much to say works as good as other products i have tried.  will not take dirt off on its own so its not a spray it and rinse it off cleaner.  Have to use a brush to losen all the gunk.
I bought three bottles, all sprayed very poorly.  It came out in blotches, would not cover the tire well.  I had to take a sponge to spread it evenly on the tires.  The cleaning was not very good, better results with car wash suds.
i've tried really cheap wheel cleaner and this brand as well as meguiars, they all work the same. mother wheels cleaner doesnt clean the tires well, does clean the rims if you use the appropriate brush. its ok.....
works fantastic and would recommend it. i own custom wheels n wanted a good product to keep it clean for car shows. this does the work perfect.
Do not hesitate to buy this foaming cleaner.  It cleaned up our white letters on Jeep tires and did an excellent job on our aluminum alloy wheels that were a MESS when received.  I used a Mothers large long handled wheel well soft brush to scrub to a beautiful shine. Seller was fast and efficient.
easy to apply, and them with the mothers wheel brush did all the work, took 3 min per wheel, and now vossen cv3 looks so shinny just when they were brand new, even the car looks so much better, ohhh and es also works with the tires, the look so much clean now.
a little disappointed. Did not work as well as the Chrome wheel cleaner.
I used this wheel cleaner this past weekend on my stock painted alloy wheels. They had become dirty with brake dust and road grime and the drive through car wash was no help. With the nice weather I treated the car to a personal car wash. I followed the instructions and the wheels are clean. The only problem is you need to use a lot of the foaming spray to cover the wheels various surfaces. On my car one 24 oz. bottle should cclean the four wheels twice. Since this is the first wheel cleaner of this type I'm not sure if that expensive. However, I'm very please with the easy no touch results.
Great cleaner but only lasted for 8 wheels.  This is pricey for only getting two car washes from this product.
This is one of my fav's, the others being the eagle1's wheel n tire cleaner. Though Nothing beats the use of a brush and elbow grease, this really helps with the calipers, spaces my brush can't reach, and especially the tires before i clean them. DO NOT expect this to wash your wheels for you, you still need to get down and scrub, this just helps alot. Though it runs out quick, it is inexpensive.Pros: Works, you'll see the brown grime coming off the tires and the black dust from the wheels.Smells like cherry (some will put that in the Cons)great for nooks and cranniesSafe for almost all wheelsOne of my fav solutions to cleaning tirewalls (clean shiny tires DO make a difference)Cons: Runs out QUICK, you'll be getting another bottle before you know ittrigger a bit small, tires the fingers rather fast
Nice and durable. There's no need for an elaborate review on this thing. The only quirk is that my rope handle is not looped (only one end is knotted) and there's not enough rope to knot the other end and still have a handle. This isnt a big problem for me but it would have been nice to have the handle as I had expected it.
Holds my boat trailer perfectly still as its designed to do.  Makes hooking my boat trailer onto my truck a little more difficult when doing it solo (which is usually the case) as there's no movement when attempting to lower it over the ball hitch.
Great product that works well.  I use this base to support the front wheel of my boat trailer.  It has effectively done its job over the past month, there is not an indentation in my driveway from the the front wheel.  The plastic is very sturdy and I am very happy with the purchase.
Great stuff!  Purchased with the jack pads years ago.  Exposed to Colorado sun for years, and still perfect.  This wheel dock is brilliant.  Drop the castering wheel into the dock, and it's as good as a wheel chock.
Didn't need it - got it anyway. Works great, forget we have it so forget to use it most of the time. Will be useful for storing the boat in the winter.
I keep my PUP in the garage - this dock assures my camper does not come rolling out of the garage.  Between this and some 2x4 on the tires, my PUP is not going anywhere.While camping, this dock helps out a great deal when the soil is soft or sandy; it helps distribute the hitch dolly wheel load more evenly.
I bought this to use with my camping trailer. I also use stabilizing jacks and wheel chocks, so the wheel dock really has no use. Seems like it would work well with a boat trailer. Price is good.
VERY sturdy, probably too sturdy for me lol. I have a 2011 Coleman Sun Valley pop up camper and its a little big to fit in my tow bag. All in all a great product.
I don't know how many chock I have damaged so far due to the cheap quality. This one will not break even if I drive over it. Recommended a must for everyone.
This is the heavy duty version of the less expensive version that Amazon also sells.  Don't be mistaken and order the other smaller, less aggressive wheel chocks.  Order these, hefty and well made.  After all, your goal is to stop a potential rolling of your RV, isn't it?
These are a very strong plastic and they do their job well. Hole molded in so you can tie them together to make it easier to pull them.
Per another reviewer: AN EXPIRATION DATE?!?!? Give me a break. Mine arrived Dec 2012 and they expire Jul 2016, so I at least have 3.5 years to enjoy my purchase. Perhaps the resin gets brittle? Perhaps that's as long as the lawyers wanted to wait for a suit?They are also placarded (and, to be fair, noted in the description) to be used with 29" tires max. Fine for cars and trailers, not usable for motorhomes which will typically start at 30" and go up from there. The tight curve of the chock means that the larger tire, even a 30" or a 31", hits the TOP of the chock first; and this chock's hard, slick plastic will not grab a surface like concrete or asphalt, so the tire just pushes the chock along.Too bad really, because it's a really beefy chock with a great ergonomic design, allowing you to easily grab it for insertion or extraction. Sad to say, I don't think the basic purpose is functional.
Great product.  Very stout--overkill for my lightweight trailers (both under 2000 lb.).  I really like Camco's products--especially the tongue jack wheel chock.  Nothing chintzy about this stuff.
The large size makes it very easy to put into position.  I use them for a long boat trailer.
Very sturdy, bright color, well made. This is what you need in a chock although I cannot find a weight rating.
These are substantial and heavenly built.  Wide enough for heavy tires. Have not used them yet.  Less mony than the metal checks available.
When I stepped up to a 34 foot fifth wheel trailer my standard chocks looked undersized against the 16&#34; trailer wheels.  These fit the bill.  Nice and strong.
I was seeking a method for referencing the specific parking location for my Mercedes Sprinter and Moetefindt trailer in my airport hangar.  Searching the offerings of Amazon.com produced this wonderful product which is incredibly substantial.When using these chocks as a target, I am able to precisely direct each vehicle to the location where it should be.  Also, they let me know when the tire contacts the chock, which doesn't move, so I know the vehicle is then &#34;at home&#34;.This is a highly recommended product!
The cleaner works OK but the bottle sprayer is a piece of junk. The sprayer broke withing the first two minutes I used it. I had to pour the cleaner into a different bottle that had a working sprayer.
After using many different wheel cleaners I can very confidently say this is the best on the market. NO acid in this so it's completely safe for your wheels. Does a great job cleaning. I drive a Porsche Boxster S and keeping it clean is my first priority.I suggest cleaning your wheels once a week since the brake dust that gets on your wheels is acidic and will corrode your wheels over time. I was recommended to try this on a Porsche owners site and I think these people have a very good idea on what it takes to keep a car looking nice.Cheers
Your wheels typically have a clearcoat, and this is sprayed on, then using a soft brush, you can get all the brake dust off, then rinse the wheel.  But you can ALSO spray the rest of your car with this.  Brake dust settles on the lower part of your car's front doors, so you can spray these along the bottom.  I use my hand (with a glove) to rub the liquid as I hose it down, and it cleans all of the dust and much of the road tar, meaning very little use of the abrasive clay that most detailers will resort to for tough spots.  This is a less aggressive alternative to clay, and should be in every car-lover's arsenal.Recommended!
If you are searching for a good, high-quality wheel cleaner, look no further! Not only is it pH balanced to ensure that you don't damage the finish of various wheels you may clean, its cleaning power is second to none. If you have a vehicle that generates a lot of brake dust (BMW, namely, but other vehicles that have fade-resistant brakes), you can spray P21S on the wheel wipe around with the provided sponge let sit for a few minutes and spray off and they'll look good as new. I occasionally (~50k miles) take off the wheels and clean the caked on stuff on the inside of the rim, too. It takes a bit more scrubbing but cleans it to make it look new every time. If you can't get this stuff to take whatever you have on your wheel, you will likely need to refinish the wheel - this stuff is the very best!
This is by far the best wheel cleaner you can buy. They are safe for all whells and makes your wheel look new. I really want to give it a 5 star but i just think it is way too expensive. It runs out soooo fast. I cleaned my wheels only 3 times before it ran out. But if you have some extra money, this is worth it.
This is a quality roller and is made in the USA! As long as you use it correctly, it should last a long time.If you're needing to press on this tool really hard, then you're doing something wrong or the sound deadening material you are using doesn't have a good adhesive on it. You should be cutting your material to fit into spaces. You can't just use the roller to make the material go around shapes/contours, that's definitely the wrong approach. Aluminum cannot stretch, so don't assume that sound deadening material with aluminum backing is any different. When rolling, you're adding just enough pressure to make the adhesive stick, and that's it. Over rolling will cause the butyl material to get all over, and if ever think you may want to remove the sound deadener some day, you just made yourself a lot more work.I am using this roller with Thermo-Tec 146xx/147xx series sound deadener. I am sure this roller works well with Dynamat brand sound deander as well. Your luck may vary with some of those generic brands out there that simply relabel ice-guard roof stuff as sound deadener. you know you got ice guard stuff if after 2+ weeks after installing your car smells like asphalt. The ice guard stuff is meant for your roof, it's not something you want inside your car. Anything sold by Amazon.com should be good stuff.
I have to admit I bought this roller for installing new formica laminate on our computer desk.  The job was small & this small roller looked perfect for the job!  In addition, if I decide to install more Dynamat, I now have a proper roller to install it with. :)The pros:+ Reasonable price, which included free shipping.+ Solid wood handle for good control, with a heavy rubber roller.The cons:- The shaft ends project out enough to cause damage if it contacts a finished surface. :(
It works good for what it is suppose to do. No complaints dynamat is always a good brand but it was a little overpriced I would say You could probably find a make-shift one cheaper. Works great but you're paying for the name.
Works as should and makes applying the Dynamat easier and very affective. Some reviewers say the Dynamat doesnt really need to be apllied with a roller but I find it much easier when done, so that you get into the tight spots!
Last thing you want to do is pay for Dynamat and not install good.Leaving air pockets can impact sound / rattles etc.Buy this once and be happy.  Don't get the cheaper one...hear it is worthless.
I got this to do a Dynamat job on my wife's car. It was an inexpensive solution to what I needed, and did just what I expected. I am pleased. I have used it on many more projects since I have purchased it. I spotted it on the suggested scroll bar. I always check there, because there always seems to be something I didn't think about and it jogs my thought process. Good idea Amazon, thanks.
... there are other tools that work just as good, if not better, for half or even less then the price of this.Plain and simple this is a great roller, the rubber head doesn't cut or tear into the foil backing of the sound deadening mat and really helps you put good even pressure to hard to reach areas. That and it saves wear and tear on your hands.But like I said there are cheaper alternatives like a super cheap wallpaper seam roller (you can find some with a rubber or wooden roller) or my personal favoritea "J" roller. With the J roller you can use the roller or even the curved handle to apply pressure to the sound deadening mat. You can even use old roller skate/blade wheels.So to recap:Great toolSaves your hands from a ton of wear and tearWorks greatBUT other tools/items can be had that do the same thing for much less.
this is a wallpaper seam roller. i bought a plastic one at lowes for 2 bucks. u can get a rubber one for 6 bucks at a hardware store. im sure this roller does work, but 13 bucks is crazy. i beat the heck out of my 2 dollar one and its still going.
The roller supplied with the FatMax product broke after a couple uses (I was pressing hard and fast)  Ordered this and received it in two days.  VERY durable and worked perfectly.  If you are picking up sound deadening mat, pick up this roller.  You will be thrilled.
I used this roller to install dynamat extreme in a new car. Has a nice handle that is used almost as much as the roller itself to smooth out the sound deadening material..
This was a nice roller, but if you are only going to be doing your doors or a small portion of your vehicle this is probably overkill. I have no real complaints about the roller, but for $15 it felt a little cheap. Given that it is a certain one time use item next time I would probably try to find an alternative.
Truly an impressive assembly of 4 parts. If there is a finer example of a little piece of rubbery roll-y wheel attached to a wooden handle with some metal parts in the middle tying it all together, show me.
This works fairly well for making sure that the Dynamat is securely pressed against the surface, with no little air gaps that reduce its effectiveness.  The rubber roller creates enough friction with the surface to stretch it into place, which is essential for working out the little gaps and air bubbles that reduce the effectiveness of the Dynamet.The handle is plain wood, and I think a soft rubber grip would be better.  It isn't very comfortable to hold.I think it is a bit overpriced, but much more usable than the economy version.  If you are trying to decide between the two, get this one.  The cheaper version just doesn't work well and you'll probably end up coming back to buy the better one (as I did).
Autostores wanted too much for it so I nabbed it here, did my first door without one and my fingers and hands ached for days afterwards. This simple little roller makes the job SO much easier and does a better job. Don't start your dynomat project until you have a roller of some type, even if its not this one.
I have used these jack stands with my BMW E46 convertible and E90 sedan.  The stands are nicely finished, light weight, and durable.  For safety reasons, I will only use jack stands with a locking pin, and these fit the bill.  (I also like to put a tire/wheel under the car as backup)  Recommended.
I've had several sets of the ratching style jack stands. There only ever seemed to be one variable among them: how high they raise the car. These aren't the highest jack stands but they have a nice flat base and provide a solid foundation for the car.
I have a pair of these stands bought about a year ago and have put them to very good use.  These stands are light weight and very sturdy.  Got a second pair to add to my collection for tire rotation.  I'm planning to use a pair on each side when I'm working under the front of the vehicle to access the O2 sensors.
What else can you ask for? 3 Ton and light weight plus locking mechanism is way safer than the wedge cuts in regular ramps.I suggest that they cover the top with a rubber pad or silicon piece to help protect car and stand
Got them quickly and appear to be well made and easy to use compared to traditional stands. Large base too.
Everything about these jack stands speaks to quality.  These jacks stands are very well made of heavy gauge aluminum with a hardened steel pin with a bearing lock for the height adjustment.  Some light assembly with a flat head screw driver is required before use.  There's a screw (provided) that threads into the bottom of the base to fasten the stand support (red) and base together.  Another reviewer stated that his stand 'wobbled'. While it's possible that reviewers stand was defective, if the screw is threaded into the hole and tightened down firmly into the base, the stand won't wobble. On my SUV vehicle, the jack points are very close together, so the base of a tripod-style jack stand is too wide for use.  The narrow profile of these stands is perfect and allows me to slip the jack stand behind the jack and under the rear jack point. Once in position, remove the pin, adjust the height and reinsert the pin. I also don't care for the ratchet style jack stands, which have been known to fail.  There are lots of low priced jack stands on the market, but when it comes to safety (yours), spend a few extra dollars are get a pair of these pin-thru aluminum jack stands by Torin.  They work extremely well and they look cool too.
