I have a plastic razor blade which I've used to help remove tar, etc. The spiked wheel thingy is one of the items I don't have, not sure what it's for.

The first person that names what that spike thing a ma gig is, gets 3 free plastic razor blades and a micro fiber towel with their next order. Now, I must warn you, keep it rated "G" or PG13, no x rated comments Sci Fi, if are you out there, you are not allowed to vote, I know you use one. Gary

Thanks Gary. I guess I should stop procrastinating and place that order I keep having the best of intentions of getting to.
