    Ring Doorbell

    Just to counter the above, im still having a real mixed time with Ring stuff. My big big front camera, with light, seems to just work when it fancies. There is 100% something wrong connectivity wise, but its literally less than 3m away from my router (Fiber) so I cannot fathom why its pissing...

    Recommend me some Headphones

    Id buy my Bose Quiet Comforts all over again, without hesitation. To say ive abused them, is probably an understatement. They came out the box, over 2 years ago now, did a 16 hour flight to Japan and 16 hours back. Ive worn them every morning for an hour since. I use them to do DIY in. They...

    At the risk of sounding like a boring wanker Please PLEASE wear PPE (Gloves & Goggles at a minimum) when using acid. You only get one set of eyes, lads. EDIT: This comes from the dickhead that recently nearly lost an eye when a cutting disk exploded on my angle grinder and flew past my...

    Acid isnt as scary as most people think it is. But it does have potential to ruin the finish of the wheels - which is mostly why people tend to steer clear. Work one wheel at a time and DONT let it dry on. Multiple rounds of cleaning are better than letting it dry. Its hard to say, I havent...

    oooooo she baked! Yeah, that looks totally revivable to me from where im sat. Going to need some strong stuff to shift it but I wouldnt necessarily jump straight to acid. Few rounds of some nice strong mixed Smart Wheels and id have said that would shift. You can see where some of it has...

    Ill be honest and say that I didnt rate Iron X very highly. It was 'ok' but nothing id rave about. Ive tried many others, for less money ill add, that did a better job. ValetPro Dragons Breath is one of the best, but expensive. Then again, if you're only doing wheels then its worth grabbing a...

    Few options here, in order of 'harshness': Normal, non acidic wheel cleaner. A good one is a must. I like Autosmart Smart Wheels. non-acidic and actually works a charm! Fallout/Wheel cleaner combo. Fallout remover neat (this is where things get more agressive) Heavily diluted acidic wheel...

    FWIW you boys would almost definitely have been doing more than 110 before rocket! I peeked down a few times and my speedo was showing just a smidge over 110 in the compact. It ever so slightly over-reads (75 indicated is 70gps). Im pretty sure some borrowed Meta Raybans should show that too...

    Flol, so the Compact really does lean as much from outside the car as it feels like inside the car :ROFLMAO:

    Not the same I know, but I only have experience with Nankangs NS2Rs do have a direction, but only in the wet. In the dry they can be used both ways. Like @Rojer , they go both ways wheeeeey

    Silicon spray to make all the plastics look 'new'. In reality it makes them horrible and it can be a bit of an arse to remove it. Go with a diluted apc as Crybert suggested, that should do the trick :)

    the Glaco stuff by Soft 99 is definitely the best (imho) Super easy to use and remove. I tried the Gtechniq stuff once and it was a joke to remove. Granted, it was warm out but still did it inside the garage!

    Low profile jack

    Just another perspective on this. Before that though, I will say its easy for me to spend your money for you. A 3T option is marginally more expensive than the others. But it buys you more 'headroom' on lifting ability and, id argue, would make it safer. Much as you'd never work under your...

    I think I have the XL one. XXL might become a proper unweildly monster if youre not careful. With the size of your cars, going from memory here, you should be dandy with just the XL one. I think I did a Disco 3 with mine and it was only as I got to where i'd started that i got any kind of...

    I jumped on amazon and just bought a 'twisted loop drying towel' (like below). Id had tonnes of them. The AF one, the AG ones (both kinds), blowers etc etc etc. This thing is the absolute nuts. Can launch it over my head, onto the roof, drag it off and its bone dry. Does the whole car without a...
