Unpopular tools

What’s an unpopular/embarrassing tool or product that you use and find value in?

Some people hate the Sorbo Tricket squeegee for louvred glass, but once you’ve mastered the combination of washing/squeegeeing/wiping the rubber dry and detailing it’s actually pretty good. I put 8 inch brass channels in it in stead of the crappy standard ones.

That’s cool. I hadn’t thought about putting different channels in it.

I love the tricket set also & have just ordered sets for all my ‘boys’. I never thought of changing it though, thanks

Old tooth brushes for tracks.

Actually not embarrassing but some humor there

Yeah, I think I’ve still got some old tooth brushes hiding in the truck somewhere, I’ve been meaning to throw them out. I use the Maykker track brushes now. And before that I used a whisk broom, lol.

I used to use the specialized brushes but kept losing them! So I went to the toothbrush.

We started using these a few years ago. Great for tracks and they are very durable. Each brush usually last a year before the bristles start getting torn up.

Oh yeah, Lowe’s has one similar to this, it works great!
