  1. I thought it had a small amount of carnuba? it does seem whenever I use it it really attracts the dust/pollen in my area. I love the smell and it does enhance gloss though. I do love H20 Guard and gloss...actually it's awesome over my lsp, just not as quick, but also thanks for the tip Jason!
  2. What I am eluding to here is a synthetic detail spray (no carnuba) that enhances gloss. Currently I have been using CG V07 over my lsp and have been happy. Would be interested in such a product through Adams.
  3. Thanks for the responses guys...and to clarify I didn't combine it with rinseless, just the same ratio. My only reason for trying this is to get a quick detail type from the product while adding shine. I don't use the quick detail or rinseless diluted because caused a lot of dust accumulation. I am also not interested in adding protection as my 2 layers of liquid paint sealant should hold up for a few months at least. Thanks also for the video, and yes the separation happened, but gently shaking prior to spraying helped.
  4. I hinted towards this in another thread, but had the opportunity after a rain to try this. Background: 1 month ago paint correction, wash, clay, light polish, and 2 coats of liquid paint sealant. We had a good rain today, came home, and after a waterless wash/dry, I dilluted H20 Guard & Gloss in my kwazar bottle 1:16 ratio...similar to rinseless. I sprayed on, wiped off and was relatively pleased with the results. My thought was to remove any left over smudges from the waterless wash, and enhance the gloss as easy as possible. My question is: even though this is "water activated"...why can't you dillute, activate, then spray on/wipe off? I also assume that the biggest ingredient in H20 G&G is...well, water, so why not try it. Anyone else try this? Any of the Adam's team experiment with this with any success? (sorry for crappy cell phone pic)
  5. I was thinking of adding it fresh per use and not letting it sit. I'll play around with the idea next waterless wash, it would be cool though to have a spray on wipe off. I know it's water activated...but why not activate it then spray?
  6. Currently I have a spray bottle of just distilled water...spray on a panel at a time, then H20 G&G, wipe and remove. Ok, so pardon my ignorance, but is it possible to mix the H20 G&G with water to dilute for a quick detail spray? Spray on, wipe off?
  7. Love the thunderbirds and the Zukes...you have a nice stable of bikes there!
  8. I really like all kinds of bikes...Triumphs are up on my list as I almost purchased a Rocket III. Very nice bike and have always had a soft spot for Triumph. I might add a cafe racer type to the stable down the road for a fun ride.
  9. Thanks for the comments...definitely not a garage queen. I do have some lower chin fairing rock chips and a few scattered on the main fairing.. I rode from Ohio to Daytona beach last year and plan on doing a cross country trip later this year. Can't wait!
  10. That's my current plan of action and will probably continue to do so as I have found it best at deterring dust/pollen (I live in the windy country here in Ohio!). Thanks!
  11. I awakened my 2011 Ness Cross Country the other day and did a full detail. I washed, clayed, then sealed with H20 Guard and Gloss. I really like the H20 G&G for the bike as it is easier to get in all the cracks/crevices much better than a paste. I will maintain with a waterless wash/frequent H20 G&G. I did use Adam's metal polish/sealant on the front and back rims. Now it's time to ride! (Pardon the messy garage)
  12. I recently did a full paint correction (my car is a garage queen and only had mild defects from winter), and after claying/polishing with Adam's products, I currently have 2 layers of liquid paint sealant and pleased with the results. I have used Brilliant Glaze in the past for looks/shows, but man I really think the carnuba (although little) attracts sooooo much pollen/dust in my area it lasts literally only a few hours before it is covered with dust. I am currently using a synthetic sealer to reduce pollen/dust attraction, although I have used Americana with good results...just the same issues as brilliant glaze. Is there a product that I can use regularly without carnuba to enhance gloss/depth? I am currently using H20 Guard and Gloss as an enhancer afterwards and have been pleased, but I love the look of Brilliant Glaze, just not the pollen/dust attraction. Thanks as any help is appreciated
  13. I had the same dilemma and recently added these for a quick fix: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JF0Q0M8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00 I have 4 60 Watt equivalent LED bulbs that are plenty bright and allows enough light to detail, smoke cigars, or whatever
  14. Pollen has been my enemy in my area since day one of owning a black car. Personal preference is a synthetic sealant vs. anything with carnuba in it. I have Patriot Wax and loved the shine/look, but man day one was covered with pollen. My current regimen is to seal with liquid sealant and maintain with waterless wash/H20 Guard and gloss.
  15. I've battled this for years and what I have found is that anything with carnuba will attract dust...i.e. buttery wax. I even have americana...loved the shine but hated the dust. I have since only used adam's liquid sealant and H2O guard and gloss. This has reduced dust by at least 75%, maintained with waterless wash.
