My kids set me up one day by spraing some guitar polish on the hard wood floor. When mine sock clad feet hit it I was on my ass in a tenth of a nano second. I hit the floor so hard I was stunned... My kids hit the floor laughing their asses off, but my wife seemed to enjoy it even more than the kids.

Never use it. Never use Armor-All on anything either.

Use original GoJo hand cleaner. Brush it on thick, let it sit, clean it off. Perfection. It takes everything but the originality. It leaves patina. It's magic sheep juice.

I wish you told me this a couple decades ago. I put Armor-All on the saddle of my BMW R90S. I went for a ride with a passenger on the back, and when I had to lay on the brakes hard, we both slid forward, only to be stopped when I "encountered" the gas tank.

Owwwwwwwwwwww... :oops:

LMAO! YES we have ALL done that. I became the single passenger in a car I was driving because of it. Yes!

We sprayed it on a hall floor and raced those lil micro-remote cars. it makes them handle as if they are heavy.. and then you break your ass.

You know how sheep are. Kiss turns to lick. Lick turns to bite... and so on.

One time when I opened for John Cipollina he told me about how he used Hoppes gun cleaner to clean his guitars and strings, that tip saved me many times when I didn't have $ for new strings, you won't believe the gunk that comes off and the feel of the neck afterwards.

'cept that I don't recommend having strong solvents like that on your hands for extended periods.

Don't trust me - check the MSDS (material safety data sheet).

Man, you're not kidding Zippy! Should have worn gloves, I don't think there was any residue on the neck, just REALLY clean.
