Put Your Truck On Ice
Last year, Turtle Wax developed Ice-the only clear liquid polish on the market. This year, the company adds a new product to the line with the introduction of Ice Synthetic Paste Polish. Just like the other Ice products, this new paste won't leave any white, powdery residue behind. Ice Paste is a blend of synthetic waxes and UV inhibitors to help guard against harmful UV rays and protect your truck's finish from fading.

You Have A Fan
Spal has introduced the AP90 High Output (H.O.) Series electric cooling fan to improve airflow in high-static pressure situations. High-static pressure results when a large air mass is forced through a single or multi-stacked core, a pressure differential is created and the cooling fan must work harder to overcome it. These 11-, 12- or 16-inch fans were built to handle the added strain of a high-static pressure situation. Like all Spal fans, the AP90 models feature rigid, glass-filled nylon blades that are dynamically balanced internally and externally to minimize vibration.
