    Craftsmen Toolchests

    Speaking of various brands of boxes, what about Clarke? Menards is the only place I've seen them... prices aren't too bad, but the ball-bearing ones are in black and gold--yeck.

    Detailing My New Car Question

    Wash with quality product--wash the vehicle twice; three buckets; wash the wheels and wheel wells first, with a dedicated brush. Clay with detailing clay. Rewash. Use a polishing compound (I use sonus, available at bettercarcare.com)--SFX 2 should be fine, follow up with SFX-3. Finish with...
