All these black vehicles have me inspired. Once I get mine done I'll throw it on here too. Ordering stuff for my car here very soon! -

I just wanted to jump in here and say nice jobs on those cars. The black on both of your cars looks phenomenal. -
Cyclo Pads and Chemicals
FordFocusST replied to FordFocusST's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
Thanks. I just went through all of it and even the pads were bad. Falling apart sadly. Kind of mad and sad at the same time! Will any of the current four inch pads work with the cyclo? Cyclo works perfectly fine at least! I don't plan on buying a rupes right now either. Especially since I need to restock a little bit. Almost like I'm starting over. I'll go through the learn area too. I like the new website. Forgot to add that the car has had basically been through the car wash. I'd say about two years of neglect on the thing. Definitely needs a good clay. -
Cyclo Pads and Chemicals
FordFocusST posted a question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
Hello all! Been a long time for me since I've been around. Life, moving, changing work locations, kids. Its been a long time. Currently my car is starting to show swirl marks. Also has some nice dents from my son opening my wife's car into the rear quarter panel of my car in the garage! Those will just be battle wounds! I'm looking into getting back into detailing my car but I see Adam's has so much different stuff. I still have a cyclo and some old pads with a lot of chemicals that I haven't used recently. They are rather old at this point. I'm curious with the pads and chemicals being so old, if they would still work. Also curious what pads and stuff I should get now to use with the Cyclo. The chemicals have been in some heat and cold air since I've gotten them but have been in a closed bottle. Been stored in my garage. Thanks for the help in advance. Miss you guys! -

Completed First Full Exterior Detail

Planning on going again this year! Will be my third time. Its always a good time. I saw you're not going. I guess where you are going is probably more relaxing! -

This is good to know. I didn't even think to remove them! This would have made it easier! -

Since the weather was nice here in PA and I finally had some time on my hands, I finally did a complete exterior detail. I basically washed the car, clayed it, washed it again, dried it, put VRT on, corrected it, finished it, sealed, glazed, and waxed it. I also put tire shine on, undercarriage spray, and then used glass cleaner and sealant on the windows. It turned out really well but not perfect. I noticed some scratches still which is to be expected. I did notice some holograms on the hood which I don't know where they came from. I did hit a deer awhile ago and they replaced the hood and painted it, so I don't know if that's where it came from because the hood wasn't done to well and I was not to happy. ​Anyways, here is some pictures: Just to finish off, I will say I learned a lot from doing this myself. Glad I used VRT, that's a savior for plastics! Also, tape off the crevices! Makes life easier! Was a fun time. Took me a day and a half and 17,000 steps as per my tracker! Was exhausting yet rewarding!

Was wondering why mine hadn't shipped yet! Nice picture! I'll be waiting patiently as I'm not off work until next weekend when I hope it will be here by then!

Haha. Adams humor with the sandpaper makes all cringe. Glad to put a face to the name too!

Just wanted to say thank you to Grabiaks and the Adams team for the dinner and clinic. I had a good time again along with my wife. Was also nice to see the good amount of people that showed up. Plus I'm proud to be a new owner of the cyclo! Also, keep an eye out for more paint correction items. Adams got to scare my wife and I with removing some deep scratches on my dirty car!

I haven't been on SR22 in awhile but it seemed like there was always construction on it when I used to travel on it.

Picked up the WD4070 with the pro hose. Cleaned well. Might need some extensions for some stubborn hair in my car. The blower was pretty clean to for testing it after vacuuming.

I saw your earlier post and it's definitely a good deal. Plus I have several gift cards for home Depot lol
