I think 70mm caps might be hard to find. You try to contact tischer. I know they have the 68mm ones, not sure if it what you are looking for though. Post something in the tires/wheels section and see if you get a response.

Any pics? Seems like a great price!

ONR is the shit! I love this stuff. I might even use it in the summer. Glad you like it. Make sure you have a dedicated sponge for this because it get very dirty. Did you use a grit guard with this?

I bought one, but I have a small bucket. Need to get a larger one, or two of them actually.

Did the same thing. Went out to get a bucket that fit the grit guard as well. Great stuff! You will like it even more in the winter.

You know, I am as excited about all the cleaning stuff for the car as I am other accessories for the car. Used to be that cleaning was just a chore, not so much anymore.

What do you guys use to polish the chrome around the windows? (Seth, you need not respond to this question).

Nebster · 03-19-2009, 07:58 PM

yeah i get paid good enough to not care hahaha

Why did i know you were going to say that!! I honestly don't use anything. i feel that with regular cleaning it does a nice job. Plus, since i don't like the chrome look, i don't want it to shine and stick out anymore than it does.

Nebster · 03-19-2009, 08:03 PM

how did you know? because i get that question about 30x a day
