did you ever wonder why?

[sassyotto]

My all time pet peeve. So you got a favorite tool or chem that you've been using forever. Then all of a sudden they dont make it anymore or worse yet, make a "new, improved" version. Now what your used to (that worked perfectly fine) isnt available anymore.

Mine is the BANE door drape. Yes, Bane isnt around anymore but even for the longest time the door drape they used to make became unavailable. I love this door drape because it seals the entire opening and folds up so it doesnt take up much space. (just put your jacket on the bottom opening covering the hose)

So what product did you like that they discontinued making?

Less noise as well, Daisy chainable, can carry 4-6 in at a time..

I have 8 air paths, 4 of the second generation, and 4 of the rotomolded ones.. You get tired of hearing the noise complaints of the Airpaths and how much amps they pull 8.3/each.. Trip breakers a lot..

111 trichloroethylene fabric protector, you could spray a paper towel and three SEC nds later it would hold water hahahah

Steamways cotton/wool cleaner. The original was made from lemons. You could tell because it seemed there was some pulp in there sometimes. Neutral pH cleaner that actually smelled like real lemon. Then they refined and changed it and it just wasn't the same.

When cleaning office spaces they don't blow all of the papers off the desk.
