  1. Makes sense. I have a couple bottles of DS so, was just wondering. Lol. Thank you very much for the feedback.
  2. Copy. Thank you. Oh glad to hear that. I'm looking forward to trying it out. I was going to pay a detail company to ceramic coat my car but every where I looked wanted 1500-2000 for paint correction and 9H ceramic coating. Figured I would try myself. I find it relaxing being outside working on the car anyways. As you mentioned. I am planning on doing all the prep work. I usually strip wash, clay and then wax every spring and fall. But, I just bought the following to add to my Adams collection and prepare for this session. This should be good. Question, can you use regular detail spray and/or waterless wash afterwards or when needed without impacting the CSC or Ceramic Wax?
  3. Oh no problem. With my first go thru with PS and HGG I did love it. I think I am just looking for something a little different that adds that good protection but, adds some very nice depth and shine to my blue vehicle. I have read many comments about Americana being just that but, with CSC I am thinking that will be the better way to go. I will have to check out those threads you shared. I have been use HGG now since this past summer and enjoy it. It does look great. But, where my car is outside 24/7 and I wash it a couple times a month (can't stand it dirty) I was hoping the CSC will be a better alternative to last a bit longer but, also add a great shine. When you used the CSC and then topped with the CPW did you wait 24 hrs before applying or did you apply after you finished the coat of CSC?
  4. Oh great. Thank you. Sounds like it would be good to give the Ceramic Spray Coating a go. Have you also used the Ceramic Wax afterwards? What do you use for upkeep?
  5. I read that already. But, it doesn't give you the feedback based on personal experience from users. I have never used the Ceramic Spray Coating but, I have used the Sealant and a wax before. I am wanting to know if people find the new Ceramic Spray a good option over the Americana Wax.
  6. Thank you for the reply. Yeah, trying to find that process that adds a good protection but, incredible shine can be tricky. Been watching some videos on the Ceramic Spray Coating and seems to be a good option.
  7. Last spring I did the Revive Polish, Glaze, Paint Sealant and topped with Buttery wax and then maintained through the summer with Guard and Gloss. Well, this spring I am debating on trying out something different. But, looking for advice on 2 different options I am debating on. Here are some vehicle details if it matters to determine best decision. I have a Blue 2019 Camaro. It is my daily driver. It is parked outside 24/7. No garage or carport. I do not take it thru a carwash. I wash by hand. I am up in Boston Area so, it does see road salt but, I wash the car pretty often. First, I am wanting to remove light swirls that I am noticing. So, I plan on using Strip Wash and then doing clay. After that I was thinking I would do a Compound and then the Polish. My first question, do I really need to do a Compound or would a Polish be ok? No major scratches. Looks to be light swirls. But, they are noticeable. No hard water spots or deep scratches. Now, this is the 2 paths I am debating on and so, my second question. 1. Then go a Paint Sealant (Or is PS not needed?) and then try out the Americana Wax and maintain again with Guard and Gloss and occasional Glaze 2. Or go with Spray Ceramic Coating and then top with Ceramic Liquid Wax and maintain with Ceramic Boost. I have been hearing some good things about the Ceramic Spray. I would try doing a actual 9H Ceramic but, not really wanting to try that myself. If someone has a better plan I should do, I am willing to hear it.
  8. Thank you. I actually do need to pick up some of the waterless wash. I also will look into ceramic coating once I feel confident enough to do a good paint correction. Great wrote up. A lot of details in that especially for the first timers. Yeah it seems people really recommend the G&G so, I will be ordering some of that. Then just apply glaze as desired. So the Spray Wax isn't really being helpful over the paint sealant?
  9. Great, I will do that then. Thanks again for the feedback. With this car being outside 24/7 and a daily driver I want to make sure it is protected well and looks great when driving. I will say, I did buy a car cover today to help protect against the weather a bit. For sure, next washing I will try out the glaze on the glass and then get a good glass sealer.
  10. Ok, I may pick up G&G then. But, use the Spray Wax and then Glaze every couple of weeks or so. It wouldn't be too much though with spray wax, glaze being repeated every couple weeks and then topped with G&G? Do you know how long the Spray Wax lasts before breakdown? Very interesting about the glaze for the windows. I will have to do that then. Thanks for the help.
  11. Thank you Parad0x for the reply. While I would ceramic I already did the steps I posted above. So, was more curious what I could do with the products I have or if I should pick up something else like Gloss & Guard. I wasn't sure if I could do a coat of glaze topped with Spray Wax every couple washes safely either. Thank you, glad you like the car.
  12. Hi all. I took many hours this weekend getting out to detail my Camaro. Picked up a bunch of Adam's products. But, not sure what I can do for follow up. The process I did was Wash, Clay, Wash, Revive Polish, Glaze, Paint Sealant and then Spray Wax. So, just not sure what I can do now to keep the shine going without putting too many layers on. Should I just use the spray wax every few washes? Or can I just put a coat of glaze maybe every weekend if I wanted to? Or every few washes put glaze and then the spray wax? Note: My car is keep outside 24/7. I live in an apartment. Here is a couple shots.
