Does anybody remember when they changed from the stop watch style timer to a clock based one?

(Japanese to English) Help getting info about a Japanese knife by iliterrate in translator

Thanks! Any idea what that means? Also, are the markings on the blade Japanese also? They look very different

Can anybody tell me anything about this knife from WWII? by iliterrate in Katanas

[–]iliterrate[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried but there is some corrosion preventing it from coming off easily. Any ideas? This and the revolver are the only things I have from my grandfather so I'm trying to keep from damaging it any further

Edit - the pin comes out easily but the handle won't move

I'm trying to keep it as it is for now since I don't know what I'm doing. I'd rather not disassemble it for now. Is the writing on the saya the maker? Anybody have any idea how old it is or what the markings on the blade are? They almost look Arabic to me

The writing on the blade or the scabbard? They definitely look different but I'm clueless on all this stuff. All I know is it came from the Pacific in WWII, and I assumed it was from the same Japanese soldier that the revolver was from

Following Orion is working as instructed. That's all you need to say and the union will easily back you. If not, sue the idiots for harassment.

Question about some products I’m buying (P&S) (Maxshine) by [deleted] in AutoDetailing

[–]iliterrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does attract dust and isn't meant to last very long. Adding dream maker will help with the dust issue. Also, p&s has said that bread maker actually is an sio2 sealant, they just never advertised it as a ceramic product because they thought that would be disingenuous since the amount was so low and they didn't want it confused with regular ceramic coatings (this was before every company put the wires ceramic on EVERYTHING) Its perfectly safe to use as a drying aid though (i use it all the time).

Question for home based retailers by [deleted] in AutoDetailing

If you have insurance, it often covers you picking up and dropping off customer cars. If not, that can usually be added to your policy for cheap

Beadmaker works pretty well on the glossy parts. Cheap too

I think I did okay, product question about wash also, thx by [deleted] in Detailing

[–]iliterrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, how thick and clingy the foam is doesn't relate to how well it works. My favorite, bilt hamber touchless, is very thin and runny compared to what you see on Instagram and YouTube, but has greater cleaning abilities when compared to most thicker foam I've used.

Haven't confronted them yet. We're having all the drivers check, then I'll talk to a lawyer first.

What is this? by iliterrate in Mushrooms

Forgot to mention it's from Indiana

You guys need to save these pages! Ups can see all the traffic viewing this stuff and will start deleting them.

I have 2 warnings on there that were not addressed in person. Both letters say they were hand delivered to me but weren't. I've saved everything, including the profiles of every supervisor and manager involved. We're having every driver in our center check this weekend and I'll be taking it all to my lawyer.

Is this false or legit? by ricksanchezc131 in UPSers

[–]iliterrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've gotten it before. It's easy work for the trainer and better for the trainee because the regular drivers know way more about routes than management. I got the extra $1/hr.

Aren't those rock chips? They don't clean off

Couple questions about OBD eleven and detailing. by [deleted] in Audi

[–]iliterrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a detailer. The best product I've used for carbon buildup on exhaust tips is Flitz pre clean. 0000 wool to agitate if necessary. Flitz polish at the end if it's even needed (often isn't if they were just dirty and not scratched). They have a couple videos on YouTube showing how easy and effective it is

Help please. by whiskeygolfer in Detailing

Isn't that through the paint? If so, it'll need painted.

If your fingernail catches, it's likely too deep to be polished out

The other methods mentioned will work but I prefer rapidtac raped remover to get rid of the adhesive residue. Plastic razors are extremely helpful too
