Oddly enough I'm only about a half mile from Wolfe's but rarely end up going. I'll try to stop and say hi sometime this year.

Wow so am I! Not very often that happens!

No hotel needed for me. Luckily I'm only about an hour away.

I'll be there with a friend!

ALL SOLD!! Feel Free to Delete as needed! Hey all. I have a few things I was trying to get a feel on for trades: X1 brand new Americana X1 new wheel brush X1 new tire brush X1 16oz detail spray X1 16oz tire shine X1 16oz H2O G&G All products unused and brand new I am looking for any of the following: Undercarriage spray Glass sealant In and Out spray New blue glass towels New style blue polish and pads Gallon wheel cleaner Gallon tire and rubber cleaner May be able to add a few things if anyone wants to part with the wheel cleaner

Blue > orange > white in terms of aggressiveness of correction in simple terms. Just my 2 cents, but if the vehicle is garage kept, why didn't you choose a high end wax (Americana or Patriot)? LPS is a lot longer lasting protection but on a black vehicle it will look noticeably more "wet" with a paste wax.

That was worded very poorly by me haha. I meant if you were to use gloss and guard would ITS longevity be reduced by whatever barrier is created by the wash and wax? I'm curious to this because I know topping G&G over a wax will cause a reduction in how long the G&G lasts (to my understanding).

Does wash and wax reduce longevity if you were to dry using H2OG&G?

I have always tried to go to this and it never worked out. I will for sure this year. Its only about 45 mins from my place. Grabiak is actually where I first found out about Adam's products. I will try to be there for sure!

Need more mystery boxes so I can keep buying them until I get glaze too

Is there a reason to use the Adam's strip wash? I have always used dawn typically for stripping before paint correction. What benefit is there to buying a dedicated strip wash vs other methods like APC/shampoo or dawn?

I cant wait to try the glaze...i hate cleaning the interior windshield. I was really surprised how well the tire and rubber cleaner worked too!

Nothing probably. I would treat it as a blank canvas and just start with a strip wash, clay, correction if needed, seal/wax. And if they washed/waxed it, have fun with the swirl marks.

Here is a newer post in the library too: http://www.adamsforums.com/topic/28890-ask-the-shine-doc-ep-11-engine-bay-detailing-what-to-cover/ Really good comparision of a stock, slightly modified and heavilly modified engine bay process. Remember, these cars are designed to be driven in a torrential downpour. Open the engine bay after a heavy rain and see how wet it all is.

I lost a few products (shampoo, quick detailer, leather conditioner) last year. Didn't realize how bad of an effect cold had on them! Definitely bring inside for the winter.
