    FoamBrite vs Neoglide

    I'd just call Kevin at Astromatic (www.carwashconsignment.com) if I was you.

    Another Oil Solution

    I saw one of these (Arizona I think) that was hooked directly to a power plant. The co2 from the plant was pump right into the algae to feed it. Killing 2 birds with 1 stone. Pretty cute if it works. Ethanol produced from corn is typical of a government fix. Uses more energy than it replaces and...

    Self-Employed Health Insurance

    If you are reasonably healthy and don't go to the dr. every time you sneeze I reccomend looking at a high deductible plan with a health savings account. That at least makes your contributions tax deductible.

    FoamBrite vs Neoglide

    The samples that came with my Astromatic catalog feel just the same as my Foambrite for what that is worth.

    Condo in Vegas

    I don't know what your source is for that statement but I think if you look at annual purchases of va's you'll see that a lot of advisors reccomend them. Many investors appreciate being able to go to bed a night knowing that they have guaranteed income for as long as they live. Some choose to...

    Condo in Vegas

    Ted, Many va's offer a guaranteed withdrawal rate of 5% but the guarantee is usually a little more complicated than you may believe it to be. You can't take the guarantee and walk with it after a bad year. Bill, Many folks give va's a bad rap. I wonder if they give homeowners insurance the same...

    Febreze in SS Frag/vac

    That's good to know. Looks like they are about 1/3 the price of the JC too. Thanks

    Febreze in SS Frag/vac

    I have had some trouble with my solenoid probably because Febreze is water based. I take it out periodically and soak it in wd-40.

    no presoak to bay

    I guess I spoke too soon. I lost it again. I can replace the plastic plunger with the metal ones, right? Do I really have to take as many things apart as it seems to remove the hydrominder. There must be a swivel that I am missing to remove the hydrominder. Thanks

    Bulk trash bags

    I have a dumpster but my 78 year old dad spends his days here so it needs to be as easy as possible. I'd just like to buy them as cheaply as possible.

    Bulk trash bags

    I know that this has been discussed before because I remember Pat H. calling me a big titty baby, but I guess that was the old forum. There must be a better place to buy trash bags than Wal-Mart but I have not found it yet. Any suggestions? I'm a drawstring guy and a proud big titty baby! Thx

    compressor pump rebuild

    Yeah I hear you but I don't really have room for another compressor.

    compressor pump rebuild

    I sent my Curtis pump to get an estimate on rebuilding it and it came back over $500. The replacement that they sold me was about the same price. Of course they told me that it was the same pump and it obviously was not. The big "made in China" was a big clue and the holes did not line up. He...

    no presoak to bay

    It appears that the presoak we switched to (Warsaw) is pretty thin. I did not use the really concentrated one because my presoak does not get used that much. I added several ounces of concentrate yesterday and started getting some to the bay so I ordered the hydrominder rebuild kit. Does that...

    no presoak to bay

    Ok I knew I would have to show my ignorance before this was over. The check valve is on the end of the tube in the concentrate tank, right? It lets the concentrate in but nothing back. I didn't pay much attention to the presoak when he put it in but it seems pretty thin now. It could be that the...

    Red lights on Ryko

    Soapy, Thanks. I ordered 1 from my disty before I heard from you. They sent the wrong one but the price was $40. Pretty pricey for a relay I'd say. Luckily I was able to return it.

    no presoak to bay

    There is a separate solenoid for each bay though. Wouldn't they all have to be bad? Thx

    no presoak to bay

    It is low pressure (400 lbs) but runs through the pump. I'm getting plenty of liquid (water) but just a little soap.
