I am thinking very hard about buying the Adam's 15mm swirl killer and the mini. My questions are - Is the heavy correcting compound only recommended for paint that's downright BAD? My 2013 black Ram 1500 does have some swirls in it, mainly from me being not very smart in washing and drying techniques after I first purchased it, but I wouldn't say it's BAD. Would the medium correcting polish, then the finishing polish be the better way to go? Or maybe I should just buy this?http://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/polishing/paint-correcting-paint-finishing-polish-combo.html Also, how many pads and towels would I need to do a correction/polish job on a vehicle the size of a Ram? Basically, I would like someone to point me in the right direction And are these machines novice friendly?

Wash and Wax - Unexpected Benefit

Sorry if this question has been answered already, but can this shampoo be used as a go to, weekly car shampoo, like the blue Adam's shampoo? -

Once again, I turned down a free car wash
JohnnyDev replied to Dkhazlett's question in Washing, Drying, and Decontamination
Was the car wash offered one of those touchless, laser washes? I like washing my own vehicles, weather permitting of course, but I have run my vehicles through our local touchless laser wash during our brutal PA winters, basically because they get the undercarriage fairly well and to remove road salt from the panels. Are they that bad for your vehicles? If so, is it because the soaps they use are harsh? -
Wow what a great looking truck!

I also had issues over the weekend with it "blobbing" out of the sprayer. Nice product though and no hazing as far as I could tell. -
Claying/Sealant/Wax Info
JohnnyDev replied to R_Rod20's question in Exterior Protection & Enhancement
Congrats on the Grand Cherokee SRT. I love those things and may consider for my wife, then I can drive it all of the time lol -
Thank you. I'm more than likely going to hold off on purchasing a machine until next spring, but I believe i'm ready to take that step.

Adam's Bottle Koozies?
JohnnyDev replied to rshadd's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
Excellent! -
Help me understand something - I see the term "soft paint" a lot. What's this mean and how would one know? I have a black 2013 Ram 1500. What would the paint be on it? I'm thinking about diving into the world of machine polishing, but i'm unsure about a few things like above mentioned paint hardness, holograms, etc etc

How hot is too hot to wash
JohnnyDev replied to pirahnah3's question in Washing, Drying, and Decontamination
Ha, that sounds funny but being an owner of a black pickup truck that is to big to fit into my garage, I've actually seen water steam up off of my paint Around this time of the year, I usually have to wait until around 530-6 in the late afternoon to do any washing because my house and large trees across the road starts shading the sun, so that gives me a good 2 to 3 hours of time. But its a real battle for me in regards to wanting to do any claying/polishing and waxing. I'd love to purchase a polisher, but again, I don't have a big enough garage to do any of that type of work in -
10" wash pads back? What happened to the 9" pads?
JohnnyDev replied to ramflava's question in Washing, Drying, and Decontamination
I love the 10" wash pad and wouldn't change a thing about it. Works perfect compared to my old wash media for my pickup. I even left a new review about it -
Do just one section all steps or whole car each step?
JohnnyDev replied to BAMAS2000's question in Paint Correction & Polishing
What color is that Audi? That looks great! I've been hesitant about doing any paint correction myself for the simple fact that I don't have a garage to perform this type of work in. I take that back, we have a garage but my pickup wont fit in it. And I'm really not sure how smart it would be to do this type of thing in the blazing sun. I know people that have garages that my pickup would fit into, but then there is the time factor. -
Sort of a silly question..well kind of
