    The new TV thread

    Previously posted in the other thread: https://www.cliosport.net/threads/what-tv.834467/post-12544557 Hisense 50" TV for something daft like £279. Its actually not bad at all. Like, really. I expected it to be a bit s**t but its not bad whatsoever. @seb - you mentioned that the backlight...

    What TV????

    For what its worth, I picked up the cheapest Hisense 50" tv the other day from Currys. £269 or something daft. For the money, im impressed. It hasnt caught fire (yet), it actually displays tv, its quick enough to do what I ask of it. Im baffled they can even turn a profit at that money, but as...

    Power Tool Perverts

    I actually identify as a female, but thanks. Joking aside, I has a peen, its just then ill be buying into the red eco system. Ive got plenty of Ryobi batteries and, for me, I just dont need tools that are that good. Other than DIY and some mechanic bits, I dont use power tools. I cant justify...

    Cars are snitches now.

    Oh I wasnt going to make any excuses, I was proud. Was it stupid? Yes. Did I do something bad? Yes. Did I care? No. I HATED my manager there. Truly. The kind who did absolutely no work, yet claimed all the credit when we smashed it. A proper bone idle wanker. I knew I was leaving, he told me...

    Cars are snitches now.

    It was, hold on *gets out calculator*.........12 years ago.... I think they were limited to 55mph (not a legal thing, just Waitrose being Waitrose) and im 99% sure I managed a smidge over 70mph. 72 sticks in my mind? 'But theyre limited!' I hear you scream. Ah, well, come hither and sit down...

    It shouldnt be too bad to be honest. The other thing to remember is that polishing glass is silly hard work. What im saying is, dont worry about scratching the glass. Id give it a few minutes and spray some water on there. Repeat if required. Let me know how you get on, kind of curious to know!

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Something physically abraisive is kind of the only thing with coatings. Once they set, theyre a pig to remove. Which coating did you use? If you have a machine with a small head, that will be the one. If not, you can do it by hand as its only going to be a small section. MF towel and some...

    Cars are snitches now.

    As far as I know, I still hold the record for the fastest recorded speed out of a Waitrose van. 'If you werent leaving in 2 months, you would be fired'.....'Oh, Ill go now, shall I?'.....'Oh, no no, its fine. Im not impressed.' In my defence, I was told to speed my deliveries up 🤷‍♂️

    it gets better... It appears it was a limited run thing so they dont have my set anymore flol. Sorry dude 🤣 If it helps, I barely ever use the teeny tiny one. Med and Large are spot on for 99% of the detailing I do...

    Turtle Wax had a set that had their branding on it. Exactly the same as WW, even made by them IIRC, but just with TW branding. I got them and they were way cheaper than the standard ones too. f**king love them.

    Accepting one-off customer payment by Credit Card...?

    We tried the same a few years ago after reviewing our charges. We were also being absolutely hounded by a chap who was Car Salesman X Double Glazing Salesman level of keen. He was annoying AF but kept promising he would reduce our charges so I gave him a shot.... We were declined. Apparently...

    Accepting one-off customer payment by Credit Card...?

    Yep. Our transaction fees per year make me very, very upset. Last I checked, it was the equivelent of hiring someone full time. Yay.

    Accepting one-off customer payment by Credit Card...?

    Yep, basically. Stolen card details, phone up, give details, take goods, f**k off into the distance and never be seen again.

    Accepting one-off customer payment by Credit Card...?

    @MarkCup Just be very cautious! There is a LOT of fraud going on at the moment, we've been tried a couple of times. 'Ello mate, im a local builder, need a roll of carpet. Ill pay up front on a card'. Payment goes through, they take goods, suddenly youve got the bank on the phone telling you...

    A good wheel cleaner and arch cleaner/brush?

    How much is it bud? Im usually a 'protect the wheels then use normal shampoo or fallout remover if really bad' kind of guy. That said, 5 months of not washing the 140 has left the barrels of the wheels in a bit of a sorry state. Ive got some acid kicking about but id rather not use that if poss!

    I have one. Unfortunately I dont have access to a compressor anymore so its redundant, for the moment.... I bought a cheap ebay special. As a tool, theyre fantastic. They spin a inner tube around at a billion mph which causes a 'tornado' effect to fly into the carpet. It really does dislodge a...

    Ring Doorbell

    Anyone else got the Ring Spotlight cams? Big-ish square thing? Bought one to sit over the driveway to keep an eye on the cars etc. Good thing I did as my neighbour cant drive/park for toffee. Had the first one for about 4 months before it started to throw a fit and not work. Got it replaced by...

    Honestly, just go with the biggest/most bits you can afford. Ive got the modular tray stuff and its so good. Undoing crusty gearbox bolts on the mx5 im pissing around with. Had extenders on the socket for reach AND slid a metal tube over the handle for more leverage and the bloody thing...

    Maybe im being unfair - I hadnt tried everything in their range tbf. it was also yeaaars ago I last used up their stuff. I just felt, at the time, it was alright for what it was. bare in mind, too, that most of my usage is CarChem now. Similar prices to EZ (on BF when I stock up anyway) and it...
