    Very nice set up. I keep my tire dressing applicators in zip bags. Maybe some day I will spring for a bunch of plastic containers with lids to make it needed.

    Yeah i noticed mine are starting to bow a bit, not from the weight of the products, but from the high humidity in my garage here in Florida's summers. The good news is I can easily go and get another piece of wood, cut it to size and pop it in. I am thinking of getting thicker panels like 3/4" and seal them with water seal or enamel or something beforehand once the bowing gets out of hand.

    I did that too until mold started growing in the foam, now I leave them uncovered.

    I am planning on upgrading to a 3/4" plywood I think if I either water seal it or paint it with exterior paint it will do the trick. Also bed bath and beyond sells 24" wide rolls of plastic shelf liner that can help with any spills.

    I have the same shelf too, and the wood is pretty straight even loaded with gallons. But my shelf is in my living room so it's pretty dry lol. I'm dreading the inevitable spill though :p That's a very nice collection of great quality products! I agree the Carpet & Upholstery cleaner is good stuff, wish I had more Adams products.

    Update -

    I replaced the sagging cheap wood shelves that came with the unit with 3/4" birch plywood. They are pre-cut at 2ft. by 4ft. and fit perfect.

    Also, I went ahead and picked up two rolls of shelf liner from Bed Bath & Beyond - 2ftx10ft rolls, so I only needed to trim to length. Sprayed some adhesive around the corners and stuck them down to avoid shifting. Now the boards are waterproof for any spills, leaks, or condensation!

    While I was at BB&B, I saw these nifty little carousel turntable lazy-susan thingies. Picked up one large and one small size, and you can see the result here :) I like it!

    What's next? Maybe some LED lights strung up that change colors... I dunno haha

    Nice! Really like the lazy-susan usage. I am going to try that too.
