Last chance zipper repair success!
This Double Diamond coat cost $26 at Costco and has served well over the years. But the zipper is malfunctioning and gapping (broken), rendering the coat useless and having it headed for the thrift store. I have no skills replacing zippers, but decided to use some common sense examination of the issue to see if it could be repaired before being discarded. It worked! Coat saved!

Get more water in a front-load HE (Energy Star) Washing Machine
มุมมอง 3004 หลายเดือนก่อน
Enhance your laundry experience with this guide to increasing the water level in an energy star or high efficiency front load washer like the LG 3400. Graying white laundry led me to the conclusion that a low water level was decreasing the effectiveness of this washer. I have had front-load washers for 20 years, but never before experienced this problem. I was ready to trash the washer, but dec...
How to replace a Subaru key fob battery.
มุมมอง 6214 หลายเดือนก่อน
Replacing a Subaru key fob battery is fast, easy and inexpensive. The CR2032 or 2032 battery is inexpensive and readily available. If you have a small blade screwdriver, a little patience and five minutes, you can do this yourself at your kitchen table. This car is a 2021 Outback, but most all Subarus of the same era follow the same procedure.
Bifold door cheater's fix using metal plates from Amazon or Home Depot
มุมมอง 2055 หลายเดือนก่อน
Bifold doors often fail because of wear on the pins and their supports that allow the doors to pivot. An inexpenisve fix can be found in the form of metal plates, available online or at Home Depot for about $5. More supportive metal corner brackets are available as well. In this instance the door was already heavily damaged but the metal plates worked adequately to put the door back in service ...

Cure hiccups fast! Thirty seconds to relief
Great! I can get the sleazy dealer's name off the car with this.
I’ve had my LG front loaders since 2005 & only once needed them fixed. Still great. When they need replaced I’m gonna get the single full size unit that both washes & dries - if it seems to work well.
We didn’t see any in bloom on our 3 week trip this August/Sep. but I saw lots of blooming cactus.
I hate these but never took the time to take them off.
Cool! I saw Brian Setzer at the UNO opening for Bob Dylan years ago. It was a great great show.
I’ve liked a few of your videos on this channel. This just saved me time & $$. I wanted to paint our old brick house but my husband does not. Now I’m happy w/ his choice.
dont bees pollinate it in turn making honey from it?
I've replaced electric window motors in every car I've ever had that came with them. I've got one car with crank windows, a Ford Tempo. They still work fine.
3 windows at lowes was going to be $860 and the same sized windows at menards was $540 so how good does that 5% lowes rebate sound now?
Very good point. I think comparison shopping is essential. My sole focus what is the amount of the rebate, not the product price, and I appreciate your making this very valid point.
Love this video.
Thank you.
It looks so huge. Great video.
It does!
Ha, ha, ha. Very funny. Love it ❤
Glad you enjoyed it
He was quite a guy
Agreed.
Very interesting video. I like it. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Nice job.
Thank you.
Don't use wd40
Okay, why?
i like using fishing line instead of dental floss
Probably a smarter choice!
Sloppy work..
For me, it is not to hide the branding on the car, just to get a cleaner look and make waxing easier as well.
Goo gone, or a rubber wheel on a drill. Both work great.
Great tip!
I always found debadging a car as a bad move for future reselling. I always looked at debadged cars as red flags. A lot of ppl will swipe when they see a debadged car.
Fair enough. I always save the badges and give them to the buyer, it has never been a problem for me, but it is a valid point.
Fishing line works great too
Good to know!
Heat gun….
I probably should have given that a try, good tip!
goo gone is your friend to remove the glue.
I'll give it try next time!
Using a blow dryer makes it easier.
Makes sense, I am learning from other's experiences!
I used a kit. So that the wire had pull rings.. it has some glue solvent.. and then used some citrus based cleaner and a good run with a soft cloth
Makes sense, thanks for the tip!
A rubber wheel drill attachment is good for the glue residue
Valuable tip!
goo gone
I'll give it a try next time!
If you don't want to advertise a manufacturer's car then simply don't drive the car 😂 removing the badge won't do anything, most times i can tell auto makers apart just by body lines
They're talking about advertising for the dealership. Usually people don't take off the brand/model (unlike this video) but sometimes dealers like putting their name on the back either as a sticker or some glued-on lettering. Unless they're paying you to drive around with their name on *your* car, most people prefer to take off that advertisement.
For me, it is just to get a cleaner look, and to avoid getting wax in the little letters.
Thanks for this video. The main thing I gained from it is the song you paired with it. I've never heard it and shortly found it online and is my new favorite song
Glad you like the music!
I use the plastic safety knife blades they’re similar to the steel ones but don’t scratch your paint like crazy
Makes sense, thanks.
That Brown sticker is hideous asf. The others are fine to me
LOL. I like the clean look with none of them there.
Wow, that I didn't know. Thank you for sharing. This is the first time I've ever heard of. Great advice.
Thank you.
Yeah that’s not how you take the glue off man between the WD-40 and fingernails there’s probably so many scratches on the clear coat now lol
Fair enough, there is also adhesive remover, but I am apprehensive of how that might affect the paint. I have done this on a number of cars with no ill results, but you assume the risk when you use this technique. Thanks for your comment.
Cool❤
Thanks!
Both creepy and crawly
For sure.
In the end, I settled on turning the adjustment 1.5 turns clockwise to raise the water level to the bottom of the door. This is resulting in clearner clothes from my perspective.
Great video 😊
Thanks! 😊
Nice video 😊

Great video and thank you 😊
Thanks for watching!
Easy peasy!🗝
Yes!
Great advice and thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Wow, this is so helpful. I, myself was just wondering how I am going to take the battery out from this Subaru key fob as well. Thank you for sharing and good job 👍
