    Anyone used that Enduroshield stuff before? How does it compare to RainX?

    • dufflover on 27/09/2017 - 11:20

      Interested to know too. Workmate had something like it on his car (no idea on the brand) and I've been wanting to give it a go myself. I suppose I'm worried about applying it wrong or cheapie brands applying poorly

        Supercheap told me not to bother with the Enduroshield and just grab the Rain X ..

        Rain X lasts 2-4 months tried and true
        Enduroshield lasts 3 weeks .. i tried and i threw

    • snuke on 27/09/2017 - 12:01

      Supposedly last a lot longer. One treatment per year. The bottle is 40ml, they say good for two windscreens only. So $10 for two cars windscreens,
      Rain X is 207ml at currently $9.99 form Supercheap, which s $4.99 tonight with their club deal.
      I know one bottle of Rain X will last me at least 2 years, for 2 cars, and that includes rear, and side windows too.

      With Rain X, during rainy season, I will apply once per month, to have it super slick. Otherwise, I can go 4-6 months without needing to apply it. Although I don’t need to, I generally apply it every couple of months anyway.

        Thanks Snuke. What do you wash your windscreen with, initially, before applying this stuff? Anything in particular, or just whatever you wash your car with, usually?

        • snuke on 27/09/2017 - 13:36
          +2

          Outside of windscreen, just my usual car shampoo, which is now switching from Adam’s to Meguiar’s due to the price of Adam’s becoming too much for me.
          Once a year (looong overdue for me now) I clay bar the entire car. You could do that to just the windscreen to start (after regular clean) to make sure it’s as clean as possible.
          So clean glass, clay it, clean it again to remove clay and clay lube residue. Apply whatever water repellent you desire.

        • RichardMelbourne on 27/09/2017 - 13:51

          @snuke: cool. Thanks (again) for that.

        • RedHab on 27/09/2017 - 14:25

          @snuke: Do you really clay bar the glass? I never have as I thought it would scratch it giving it a frosted look.

          @RedHab:

          Clay barring the glass (with lube of course) would be far less harmful than the dust and dirt that get rubbed into the windscreen whenever you use your washer nozzles! I clay bar my glass every few months with no ill effect.

    • Lexus101 on 27/09/2017 - 13:01

      Try not to apply anything whatsoever on your windscreen.

      All application, synthetic, silicon or polymer based will invariably leave residue after the sun UV bleaches and degrades it.

      The end results jittery wiper blades and blotches in rainy conditions.

      So please don't apply anything…just give a really good clean.

      Cheers.

        +5

        Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, no.

        Unless you are using a clay bar or similar, then your “really good clean” is far from a good clean. Even then, with the amount of micro and non-micro abrasions your average windscreen has, combined with the surface tension of water, you are looking at a very similar end result.
        I have been using Rain-X and other products on all of our cars for over 15 years and I do not get jittery wiper blades, nor do I get blotches when it rains. I get the opposite because these products.

      • redvaldez on 27/09/2017 - 16:20

        I used RainX for a while on a previous car. I had no issue, but I did hear complaints about being RainX being chattery so on my two subsequent cars I've used synthetic waxes (usually Meguiars Techwax as it's the shittiest wax in my cupboard and I'm not going overboard for glass). Never had an issue. Makes driving in the rain so much better so I'm not going to go back.

        Jittery wipers are not caused by products like rain-x, it's because the blade holder has developed wear/play or is not at the right angle which is catching an edge and causing it to jump.

    is 6.5W bright enough? I want to replace the current light bulbs in my room.

    • HL2 on 27/09/2017 - 11:39

      It is subjective. But for me it is too dim. Each of my room have only a single light bulb and they are 10w each.

      • Click_It on 27/09/2017 - 12:01

        My rooms have 3 of them and they're plenty bright, but only 1 of them maybe not so much. You then have to consider the angle they throw the light If stuck with a single bulb in the room.

        Lumens doesn't mean anything, need to check Lux.

        • CVonC on 27/09/2017 - 12:06

          What's the diff?

          In the catalogue it had a table that said 7W = 470lm

        • snuke on 27/09/2017 - 13:02
          +4

          @CVonC:

          I was actually being facetious, almost no one shows the lux value.

          Lumens is light produced, Lux is the light actually projected. A unit of Lux is equal to 1 Lumen per square metre.
          It would be shown as something like 10W- 900 Lumens – 360 Lux/5M. So you have a light is producing 900 Lumens, and it can actually be measured as projecting 360 Lux at a distance of 5M
          It’s ideally what you want. You can have two devices that are both the same Lumens, but they actually project it with different effect/efficiency. Eg: two 500 Lumen torches, side by side, but one is clearly illuminating an object in the distance better.
          If everyone used Lux, then you could have real results to compare light v light in how they actually project what they produce, while of course still missing the effect that colour temp has on the result too.

    • Scab on 27/09/2017 - 12:01

      Depends on how many you have and the size of your room.

      • locksmith ktbffh on 27/09/2017 - 12:04

        My room has only one light bulb but it's a small room anyway.

        • Scab on 27/09/2017 - 12:11
          +1

          Look at what's there now to give you an idea if this will be suitable.

          6.5w in LED will be about 450 lumens, which is roughly the same as a 40-50w incandescent.

          Won't be very bright, so compare to what you have now.

          EDIT: You could always try it and take it back if you aren't happy, one of the advantages of buying from ALDI.

    Have tried Enduroshield and it was pretty average. Could not get results like other products.

    Have been using RainX and the Armorall branded one sold in Woolworths for years and find them both about the same.
    I use 0000 grade steel wool on my windshields to clean the shit off them. Yes, I said steel wool and my windows have been fine for years. It's the super fine 0000 grade stuff you can buy at Bunnings.
    Use other methods if you are not sure.

    I drive 54km's too and from work in the country and the water beads off once you get to say, 70 km's an hour and above. Never have to use wipers at those speeds and above. Awesome stuff.

    In the wet season, I do my windscreen maybe 3-4 weeks at a time, waaaay less the rest of the year.

    Still have bottles of both brands sitting around as they last maybe 18-24 months on average.

    EDIT - Looks like Endurosheild is a different formula which is meant to last. (Didn't for me). Just read this….
    EnduroShield products are 100% different from products like Rain-X which create a slippery surface.
    First, our products are monomers, not polymers — this is a very big difference in terms of the thickness which bring us the the second difference. EnduroShield relies on the molecules of the product itself to create the water & oil repellent surface, whereas other products make the surface slippery in order to work.

    You choice people. Good luck!

      The mower in my ALDI catalogue looks different to that one. The NSW model has a 196cc no-name engine and an electric start that comes with an Xfinity battery. Other specs look similar but this one weighs 43kg and appears to have a hard plastic catcher.

    About 3 years ago, picked up torque wrench (from an inner west Sydney Aldi) for $16.99, as it came on special, after not being sold out on the catalogue price. But it's quite a good deal at this price.

    • Worf on 27/09/2017 - 21:54

      Is the torque wrench any good? I've always done car maintenance to what I think is a right amount of tightness, not too tight to damage anything, and not too light for things to leak. I've always wondered if should get an actual torque wrench to tighten things to spec. Never really had any problems to date…

      • megadeth on 27/09/2017 - 22:13
        +2

        Well, think you get a feel for the required torque after doing it a few times… but for peace of mind I prefer to use it on critical bolts on rotating parts e.g., harmonic balancer, wheel nuts etc. Aldi's wrench is great, the scale to set the torque is graduated like an olden days micrometer… you select the torque by rotating the scales (followed by doing the locknut on the scale to set it) and then use the wrench like a normal 1/2" drive. Scales are in both metric and imperial. Get the job done in a great price when compared to the ones sold by Repco/SCA etc…

        I have this exact one and recently used it when I replaced all of my brake rotors, callipers and pads on my Lancer. I've also used it for my rocker cover and various bits on a few cars. It works well, previous to that I was a "yeah that feels right guy" and never had any issues. Worth giving it a go, return it if you don't like it!

        Torque wrenches really come into their own for times when you have multiple points of pressure. Doubly so for cheap wrenches
        Like the legs on a washing machine, whats crucial is not how high/low they are, but that they're high/low together. Otherwise you get balance issues (or in the case of cars, leaks)

        • Worf on 29/09/2017 - 20:05

          Never thought of that, but now that you mention it, it makes sense, thanks! Will keep in mind if i drop the transmission pan.

  • scooter on 28/09/2017 - 13:23

    Ensure you back off the tension in the tool when finished the job, as leaving the internal spring under tension will fatigue it and lose accuracy over time.

    • Charity on 29/09/2017 - 13:41

      that's based on the assumption it was accurate to start with.
