It's a well known fact that Crest prevents card decay and promotes pristine shiny Chromium.

so dont hold out what toothpaste is preferred?

 

[rainmanesq]

Lol on the toothpaste. Personally, I like crest. You take a tiny dab of toothpaste + gently rub it on the surface of the chromes w/either your thumb or a lint/scratch free cloth (like from a camera/eyeglass store)- it takes out minor imperfections like light scratches (common w/07 bcdp for ex.).

Baking soda toothpaste worked for awhile, but it seems to have lost its luster. The toothpaste used on this sub was crest whitening (but not the kind w/those funky crest strips embedded in the toothpaste).

other products that work- armor all, wd40, windex.

1 caveat- start your toothpaste, armor all, wd40, windex etc. experimentation on JUNK chromes that you don't care about. it takes awhile to perfect the toothpaste usage, so you don't want to start it out on say an orange ref :lol:

Nice grades....but please don't give the kiddies any ideas.

lol this was day 20 so they had to give me the grades. just keep hitting refresh refresh refresh.

on this order, bgs taunted me on day 10 by sending me 'your grades popped/order shipped'. it was for someone else though + they made a goof. now THAT was frustrating, but given how the sub turned out (i only had 1 card that didn't hit the 9.5 min.), i can't complain.

lol i can't handle waiting for grades either + after the 'woops, we were just taunting you w/someone else's grades' order mixup, the past 10 days seemed like an e-t-e-r-n-i-t-y.

however, right after i posted on the 'bgs grades popping early' thread (+ after the zillionth time of hitting refresh refresh), my grades popped. maybe bgs finally heard my prayers :lol:
