There is a more limited selection of car detailing products available here in Australia compared to the US, so writing this from the perspective of what is available here.

I haven't seen much online about NV Car Care products but bought some of their products to try and compare.

• NV Snow - I have used Carpro Reset and Koch Chemie Gentle Snow Foam and I find NV Snow to actually be pretty comparable. The dilution ratio is 1:300 for bucket wash so more concentrated than GSF, less than Reset. It foams up in a foam gun just fine at 1:8 dilution. I actually find it more slick than GSF when doing the contact wash. This is a product I would buy again. I paid about $80 AUD for a 4L bottle co

Is this safe and possible? I have two separate dashcams to use as front and rear and two separate hardwire kits. I would like to connect both hardwire kits to one fuse tap each so that I have to only tap into two fuses instead of four. Would I also be able to connect to the same ground bolt?

Also if I don’t want parking mode, can I just tap into two fuses that are only powered when car is on? No issues with that? Reason being is that I have a RAV4 hybrid and it has quite a small battery…seems like parking mode kills the batteries on these quickly even with a conservative voltage cutoff set based off other user experiences.

I just bought a new car and really want to keep it looking nice but completely new to proper car care. It has been paint corrected and ceramic coated by a professional so far.

I’ve bought ONR rinseless wash, the ultra black sponge, the gauntlet microfiber drying towels, and a pump sprayer. I was planning to rinseless wash every or every other weekend.

Is it fine to just do ONR rinseless washes for the life of the car? I can take it to a pressure washer to rinse off any heavy debris if it comes to it but I’m in an apartment so no regular access to a hose.

Is there any other products I should purchase or things I should do besides the rinseless washes to keep things looking nice? I was

So I’m looking for a new headlamp for fishing that has a decent white LED light and also a red LED light to avoid attracting bugs. Ideally it would be USB C rechargeable but if not it’s okay.

So far the only one that I’m aware of from reading this sub is the Sofirn H25LR.

Price range is up to like $40-50 USD but if the only good options are higher price, I’d be interested in seeing them anyway to consider.

Located in Australia so Aliexpress is the easiest to order from internationally with low shipping costs for me.

Ideally within like an hour of CBD area just to set a scope.

I know they say you can eat a certain amount east of the Harbor Bridge but personally I’d rather avoid eating the fish entirely anywhere there needs to be a caveat like that.

I’ve been looking inland like west of Sydney and seems like agricultural runoff and raw sewage contamination is an issue as well.

I’ve considered Botany Bay but the airport being right there seems like you’d end up with runoff from there.

Would fish from the Pittwater area be safe? Any other areas in the Sydney region? Central Coast and Wollongong I know are options but sometimes just a bit far when I don’t have a whole day to fish.

Looking for a new bag to carry around my tackle. I use a backpack currently which is good for carrying lots or heavy items but inconvenient since I have to take it off to switch lures or hooks and whatnot.

Considering a sling but not sure if it’d be comfortable still if I was carrying a 1L bottle of water in it. Backpack carries it no problem since it distributes the weight across two shoulders but slings/cross body bags I’d imagine would get uncomfortable after a few hours.

I made a post a few days ago about feeling nervous about it all. I ended up with a score of 317! I've seen many others post about their experience going for this cert so wanted to give back to the community by doing the same.

Reading the other CSCP posts on this sub, it seemed like most people have had a bit of experience in supply chain before or at least had some level of education in it. I come from an accounting/finance background with several years of experience there, but no supply chain background. On the pretest I came out with an overall score of 46%.

I purchased the ASCM learning system package and I started studying mid November 2023 and had the benefit of being unemploye

I've got no experience in supply chain and come from a finance/accounting background. I've been studying for the CSCP cert to transition to supply chain for the past 4 months now and studying hard.

I've just completed the entire learning system and have quiz at 80-90% consistently across the modules now. I have PocketPrep and am at a 98% overall score and have answered all the questions they have. I've been doing entire subject exams everyday, 1 each day now and am scoring at least 85-90%.

My concern is that I'm only scoring this high because I've seen the questions and answers all so much now that I've just memorized them. I took the CSCP practice exam for the first time the other d

I currently have a 6'6" 3-5kg rod and looking to get a lighter rod for soft plastics fishing for fish like bream, whiting, flatties.

I've narrowed it down to these models, all around the same price range.

Specs below:

Rod	Cast Weight	Length	Rod Weighting
Atomic Arrowz Estuary AAS-270UL	3-14g	7'	3-10lb (approx 1.3kg-4.5kg)
Atomic Arrowz Estuary AAS-270SUL	2-10g	7'	2-6lb (approx 0.9kg - 2.7kg)
Shimano RAIDER 762 BREAM SPIN	3-12g	7'6"	2-4kg
Shimano RAIDER 722 LIGHT BREAM SPIN	1-10g	7'2"	1-4kg
Daiwa 23 TD HYPER 702LXS	2-10g	7'	1.5kg-3

Long story short I hooked a flatty in the gills and was trying to get it out gently with pliers I bought from Bunnings. I'm pretty sure I did a lot of damage before finally being able to get it out despite trying to be gentle... Feel bad that it probably died after being released because of me.

So I'm looking for a proper tool to dehook fish easier or maybe more purpose built pliers that can maneuver in small fish mouths easier.

I'm also looking for a portable landing net. Has to be something that can fit in a backpack because sometimes I take public transport to go fish so it all needs to fit into a backpack. Ideally it'd have telescoping handle if possible but the main criteria is

I’m looking for a bait shop that sells bait in small quantities. I don’t have capacity to store leftover bait at home so am looking to buy just enough for one session at a time.

I’m also looking for recommendations on baits to use. I have tried chicken and small prawns…both get nibbles but fall off really easy when casting or get stolen off the hook. I have had decent success with bread for small fish but am wondering what else I should try? Squid is on my list but have not tried yet.

I usually fish around the Harbor Bridge and also have been trying estuaries/creeks as well. Only have had success in the harbor so far
