Haven't attempted tethering the phone to my computer for a internet connect yet...haven't had to. Curious how hard that is to do and if it's worth the effort.

That was a waste, and purdy damn low.

Perhaps he'll start a new thread with a better perspective. The kid couldn't of meant half the stuff he posted. He got upset, took things the wrong way.

Thought there was a slight chance he might settle down after mbb posted.

I took my Wife over to HD to get some yard stuff. I saw this sitting there saying "Buy me". All I gotta say is... DAMN. This works really well with very minimal effort. In between "sprinkles" I hurried out and did half of the hood and the drivers fender. When I run my had over it, there is a huge, noticeable difference. This is even after going over it with Ultra-Cut compound. I'll be doing the rest with the clay bar.




EDIT: HD needs to update their pic. On the front of mine it says "3 Clay Bars". This box in the pic says it has 2.


EDIT2: Advance has the right pic.... and it's more money there, LOL.

Android...suppose it would be good to know how to do that... just in case.

Could you stream that way as well...big screen?

Sounds good. I know Mead was dry as a bone, heard from another user yesterday that it had water once again. I think that's where Paul found that speed boat.

Yeah, I've used it to stream Plex while traveling.

On the Android OS, go to Settings>Connections>Mobile Hotspot and Tethering. Then turn the Mobile Hotspot slider to "on". After it's on, tap the words "Mobile Hotspot" and it will let you set up an SSID and Password. Then just hook whatever to it, and roll!

Yep, that speed boat did indeed come out of Powell. Good memory.

Hit it with Iron -x first then the clay bar then polish.

You won't believe how clean it is !

The iron-x works great.

Sprays on clear and turns a purple/red as it breaks down the contaminates on the paint.



↑ that KIA was nasty.







The Ram was 2 yrs. old and ran thru car washes, but not hand washed.
You can still see the contaminants dripping off onto the concrete.

Spray it in a clean vehicle and wait 10 minutes and rinse it down.
A second shot if the vehicle is really bad.
Stuff smells terrible, wear gloves when using it.

I've never even heard of that, Phil. I'll have to look into that. Where do you get it from? Autozone?
