Just make sure you always do seat covers on DELICATES mode. Works great. Throw a couple of somewhat soft towels in there to kind of scrub on them a bit. No hot water. Saves a lot of time vs using a power washer. Toss em in, add soap and hit the button, go do something else. For the floor mats...

That is true about the power washers. Has a lot of the same effect as the washing machine would. But tossing it in a machine and hitting a button, is a lot easier and less time consuming than using the power washer. And no problem in the winter time, when I'd really rather not be standing out in...

Took me reading a few posts down to get that you sold industrial power washers. I wanted to ask you about industrial washing machines. Like a bigger badder version of the home units. Cause I got this idea... (lol) Throughout many years of flipping cars, I've noticed that if you can put...

The air and battery powered ones are more money than I want to pay for this. The reason being, is how little it will be used. I won't ever even use the thing enough for my hand to cramp. A few pumps here and there, maybe a few times a year. That will be it. Plus I was kind of thinking of...

Yeah this will just be for occasional home use. I should have said that I'm looking for hand pump only. Just greasing up my own stuff every once in awhile, or maybe working on a friend's vehicle from time to time. I used to use hand pump back in the day and it never bothered me because I wasn't...

Looking for a decent quality grease gun. Not the smaller grease pistols that take the smaller sized grease tubes. Just the regular size. I imagine like all tools, I can pay $9,800 for a snap on brand or something. Just looking for the one that is good quality, but isn't super expensive. The...

Why exactly is belt driven better? I'd prefer it just because to me it seems simpler to work on. Any other reasons?

Sounds like they're kind of misinformed on intervals. But yeah my compressor will just be home use. I'll use it plenty, but it won't run every day or anything. Just needed a good replacement for the $120 chinese compressor I had for 5 years that finally died. Don't know what killed it, don't...

Yeah that was gonna be my next question. How does one know exactly when its time to change the oil? It would be nice if it had a little digital monitor somewhere, maybe mounted right next to the PSI gauge. That said how many hours the compressor had ran. And then you just know to change the oil...

Yep. Got to be the truth.

In my experience, Royal Purple delivers on what they say. Texas based company too. I run it throughout my Mustang GT. Engine, trans, rear end. It made my noisey 5-speed ford transmission shut up. That thing whined for years. And ford is known for whiny transmissions. At least they used to be...

That the doilys on the building in the picture at the top of this thread, kinda look like the bank of america symbol? The banner that says "Support the garage journal". The little white squares that are on the bricks. Those squares look like the Bank of America symbol.

Alight I trust ya. Your name is bob after all. How could you not be right.

Can I use this oil: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004PL9BVY/?tag=atomicindus08-20 In this compressor? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002MKP5JM/?tag=atomicindus08-20 I went to their website, and looked at the PDF manual to try and find out the exact type of oil. Says it comes pre filled...

What do you guys think of this one? Whoops too small

I'd love to have a quiet one. Although with an air compressor, I'd still question how quiet "quiet" actually is. The one I had was oil lubed, but it was still pretty loud. I'd leave the garage while it charged up if I was going to be doing stuff out there. I don't know why it died, the motor...

Well I did mention that I paid $120 for the first one. Looking for a new one at over double the price of the first one, I figured I'd be getting some form or fashion of a bump up in quality. But yeah mainly airing up tires, and just general household work. Occasionally I'll use an air tool. I...

I'd really like to get something new so I know that the maintenance is not a factor. And that it doesn't have a billion hours on it already. Don't want to buy one only to have it die next year or the year after. So in this instance I'm just not looking for used.

Hi all. My cheapo Pep boys $120 40 gallon air compressor has died. I got my money's worth out of it, but it bit the dust. So now I'm in the market for a new one. My needs for the air compressor are: 1. 40 gallon 2. On wheels so I can roll it around. 3. Won't break the bank. I'm seeing a lot...

I'm starting to think that the walmart toilet guts aren't so great. All the assembly that goes in the tank. Had too many problems with them. So I wanted to get you guys' recommendation on which toilet guts, are known to be the very best. I'm tired of having to mess around with them regularly to...
