COLLECTIBLE OAKLEY SUNGLASSES

I love Oakley sunglasses... they are always cutting edge, and are probably the finest lenses and frames you can find anywhere. They're tints are just incredible. They block out the burning rays and enhance your vision beautifully. They are excellent for driving or boating... or just looking cool!

I just happened to stumble upon this gentleman's blog: http://www.my-oakley-collection.blogspot.com/

He's a collector, and is selling off part of his collection at really good prices. These are new Oakleys, and if you are looking for a vintage pair from perhaps a few years back, this guy may just have them.

The Pontiac Grand Prix Forum

I love the Pontiac Grand Prix... an elegant but very sporty and fun car to drive. I was browsing the forum and came across this post about Lexol... it is the best product on the market to clean and condition your leather!

"Cleaned the car today.

Still needs a good clay bar day and buffer to help with the scratches.. I want it repainted. i hate when i clean up the car u notice all the little paint chips and stuff grr. I tried out some of the black magic liguid wax on the front hood and clip. I didnt noticed that much difference.

My car is the silver color. IT seemed a little deeper, but still could see some scratches on the hood. Nice and smooth though. I tired out the Turtle wax ICE interoir cleaner/shine.... THAT STUFF SUCKS. im gonna try and take it back. it removed all of the shine from the dealership detail from wheni got the car, and seemed to dry out the door pannel. VERY VERY disapointed in the product.

I used my lexol leather cleaner and conditioner.. i love that stuff. it will soften sun dried and harden leather.

Tried out rain-x new window cleaner. that seems ok. It seems to streak easier. Takes a little work to get them all away. Have to see how well it works when it rains see if it worked on the back and side window.

Need to get some interior trim cleaner treater for the plastic i was out of the mequires number 40"

He should try VINYLEX VINYL PROTECTANT for his trim. It would make it look like new again!

Here's a great use for KozaK! I used to use my KozaK to keep my motorcycle clean.. and it worked wonders on the chrome as well! Try it!

I just spent a wonderful few hours recently with a very good friend of mine, Winston gan. Winston owns D'Best Respray Company at Malayan Motors in Singapore and he's been in the restoration business for almost 22 years. If it's broken on the island here, and you want it fixed right, you go to Winston... hands down!
Malayan Motors sells Bentley's, Jaguars, Lexus... nice cars! Winston and I were laughing over another mutual friend of ours who has a very lovely black Bentley coupe with a dark/light Red leather interior.
Seems like this chap's son did a bit of a number on the rear leather seats and he brought the car into Winston's shop for repair.
Now, Winston like me, uses Lexol Leather Cleaner, Lexol Leather Conditioner and the KozaK Auto DryWash cloth on many of the cars he works on. From a Bentley to a humble Volkswagon, he Lexol's and KozaK's them all. And, they look great afterwards!
This gentleman expected a huge bill for cleaning the p$%**k from the rear seat.. instead we whipped out a spray bottle of Lexol Cleaner and went to work. Within an hour, the seat was clean, fresh, and conditioned with Lexol Conditioner. The smell was gone, the car was like new again, and we had a very happy amigo, smiling from ear to ear!
His driver was polishig his Bentley with a terry cloth towel... I took the opportunity to straighten him out and gave him a demo of the KozaK cloth. In less than 5 minutes, his coupe was spotless and glowing... and his eyes were as big as saucers! The road dirt was gone in a flash.. no water, no scratches! I love that cloth!
I then showed him the video from ProMedUSA's website at http://www.kozakasia.com/. He was laughing so hard I thought he was going to wet his pants (well.. actually he may have, but I wasn't about to check!!)
Here's the video for you to enjoy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXsnYkTwjKg
That brings me to a story about my first Rolls Royce. It was a 1971 Silver Shadow, much like the one in the photo, except it was Silver with Black sides, and black leather interior.
The leather seats were getting very stiff... I bought the car in 1982 for $15,000 from a dealer in St. Louis, MO (Charles Schmidt I think was his name) and the seats had never been conditioned. They were beginning to crack badly. RR suggested Connelly's Hide Food at about $50 a pop... it didn't do S%#T to fix the seats. I tried Lexol Conditioner... used about 4 or 5 light coats over a week's time, and the seats were restored to an almost new suppleness. Now, the cracks were still there... but the leather was fresh and soft. It worked great!
Winston loves the product as much as I do... no sweat car care.. quick, easy, clean and... IT WORKS!
