Get Flaky
Auto Air Colors, makers of fine water-based pigments, now has 25 new metalflake colors that can be used as a basecoat, or as a stand-alone for paint enhancements or graphics. This cuts down on the steps that were needed with older paints and reduces the layers and the sanding need to get the same results. They come in a variety of sizes, and since they are water-based, you don't have to add it to the clear; you can just spray it right on.

What Kinda Probe?
Snap-On's multiprobe handheld tester takes the guesswork out of checking electrical systems on vehicles. Powered by the truck's battery, this probe works like a testlight but with a few added bonuses. You can use it to provide power by pushing the button on the side, eliminating the need for jumper wires. The unit operates on DC systems ranging from 6 to 48 volts, and has a 20-foot extension cord that offers sufficient reach for operators to move around the vehicle in service.

Make It Easy
Peripheral Electronic's PXGM24 is a stand-alone auxiliary input for GM Class 2 vehicles such as the '03-'04 fullsize pickups, SUVs, and Trailblazers. This allows you to tap into your truck's factory head unit with, let's say, a DVD player, and hear it through your factory speakers. This is usually done with an RF signal, but thanks to Peripheral Electronics, all you have to do is plug it in line and listen away.
