btw, lein great job on removing your stock knob scratch free.

great idea on wrapping it with masking tape and duct tape. :tup: ill remember that trick next time. need to use a whole roll (check!)

I have a few things from HF. My roller stool and detailing cart work great. :tup:

Who the **** has a newspaper laying around these days? Hell I'd have to go buy one for $3 or something. :shakes head:

Windex is OK for glass, so long as you never get it on any kind of plastic or vinyl, or the paint, or um...

OK why not just use diluted vinegar or Glass Plus instead. :ugh2:

I dont want the interior of my car smelling like my salad dressing :icon17:

i know, i dont even keep flyers in the mail. :icon17:

i hate windex. i dont use it for anything. that blue color dries solid and stains in the nooks. vinegar smells like shitt in the car.
real simple... distilled water and rubbing alcohol mix. that is all that is needed.

did u eat vinegar potato chips in the car?


no? :confused: ohh... :ugh:

Skip masking tape. It shreds to easy. Use electrical tape for the base. i used half a roll to cover the knob completely. About an inch and a half thick on all sides. E tape absorbs pressure better and leaves no residue behind. I then wrapped Gaffers tape over the E tape. Gaffers is just like Duct, but has a grippy texture to it. Works wonders and is primarily used for concerts. Then I just went crazy with pipe wrenches.

e-tape and gaffers huh? got it! :tup:

Yup. E absorbs impact. Gaffers gives grip equal to a MF towel as other have recommended.

hummm.... i need to buy another Z to try this.. lol

sears hardware guy was like :icon08: when i came in the second time after breaking my strap wrenches. :icon17:

I saw way to many breaking strap wrenches. Figured I'd just go for gold. I wrapped the stalk the same exact way. The MF towel trick "works", but is insanly hard to grip from the towel to the stalk without spinning.

I should do a DIY!!! The people who did it only have it outlined in random threads. Not an actual How to.

To meet Tanner Foust tonight or not to meet him?

That's a question?

Just ordered a new mechanical keyboard for work. Cherry MX blue switches. The people are me are going to kill me from the clickiness that will ensue during mass e-mails ahhahahahahahah
