My uncle insisted I use a 3M sanding block for the primer on my '98 Civic, and after a week of orange peel, I finally caved and the finish is glass.

He said, 'Avery, you're fighting the material,' and after switching from my old foam pad, the difference on that quarter panel was like night and day, so what's one tool you resisted that actually solved a problem?

Took me weeks to get used to my new video editor. Kept going back to the old one out of habit even though it crashed all the time. The menus were just in such a different place.
