    Hicks is the best shop I've ever dealt with. And I'm no kid. And no, they're not relatives nor do I have any financial interest in their business.

    Originally found out about them through a woman I was dating out that way. Being in Western CT there are certainly closer shops, & some are likely competent, but I don't mess with success.

    Had my Taco FF'd their almost a year ago & I'll soon be returning for a refresh.

    Dunno about those chickens. Neighbor has two & we give each other the stink eye. Don't trust them one bit. I suspect they may be evil chickens with plans for global world domination.

    I vote for the bear.

    There's a shop in Pawling NY that does Fluid film, one in Woodbury CT. The NHOU guys are in New Milford, CT.
    Undercoating Locator - Fluid Film (fluid-film.com)

    Try this place in Pelham, NY. They are listed as a dealer of Woolwax, probably spray it too judging by services listed on the web page.

    Hey Drew, sorry, not sure why I’m getting the error message still. I can’t seem to reply to any conversations or start new ones. Wonder if anyone else has this problem. Anyway, if you could shoot me an email that would be awesome.
