I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

window cleaning.

Post by .saint » September 05, 2003

my gram told me this trick. everyone probly already knows this but clean your windows with warm water and vinigar mix. not 2 much vinagar. just dump a little bit into a bucket of warm water..

.use a towel and clean the windows w/the mixture [do one at a time]
.dry the window off with another towel
.streak free sparkling clear windows

or take the easy way... have your gram clean them for you. thanks grammy <3

Your car stinks for a little bit, unless you like the smell of vinegar, but it gets em DAMN clean. Two thumbs up for Jawn's gram.

I use this foam spray type of thing.. its industrial strength that I get from an undisclosed location.. and it does wonders.. those pesky shoe polish marks that are hard to take off after moroso. (specially after a monht of baking in the sun) comes right off.. so does bird shit..

I had a can of the industrial shit too. I choose vinegar and water over that. It's amazing.

Your car smells like Easter eggs when you're done. It's rad.

Just wipe it off with a dry towel. The lint doesn't stick either.

Anybody try Stoners Invisible Glass? I've used that with newspaper and have had good results, Advanced auto was or still is maybe running a deal where you buy a can and get it for free after rebates.

stonr makes some good stuff. the black plastic spray stuff really works good. my buddy frank (demon) used it on his wiper arms and shit and it was blang for like 48 weeks.
