I voted the last option. I find, frequency wise, I don't use the BG anywhere near as often as, say, the GC or APC or C&UC or WW. So the 16oz. current bottle is perfect.... for me.

Adam's Great White Microfiber Drying Towel - Yes, a superb product that will all but eliminate your drying time, that holds water insane. Kudos to the person who came up with its size too.... very astute. Adam's Double Soft Microfiber Towel - It took a lot for me to toss out my old Big Blue Back-bordered microfiber towels - as I thought they were the best available - but I switched to these very recently and I'm sold. I now have close to twenty of them and think maybe I should get more. The best I've used thus far! Adam's Double Soft Microfiber Towel - Yes, a great towel.... until it's washed/dried. Lint like crazy for me. I'll stick with the singles. Adam's Microfiber Glass Cleaning Towels - Had the opportunity to use them very recently as I was a spkeptic for some time. True, works fantastic on a "dirty" window, but I saw no visible differenced on freshly washed/detailed glass. Again, I'll stick with my tried-n-tested singles. Adam's Edgeless Microfiber Utility Towels - Have yet to have the pleasure as I use the el-cheapo Sam's Club MF towels for the "dirty" stuff. I probably will pull the plug soon.... though I wish Adam's offered them in a multi-pack of like 30 or so. Adam's Microfiber Waterless Wash Waffle Towels - Wow! If you use WW and you don't have these towels, then you're simply short-changing yourself. Do yourself a favor and grab these towels.... they're worth every cent. I've quickly become a HUGE fan! Just calling it the way I see it. Also..... Thanks for taking the time to forward a detailed review.

Got it. Thank you. Owe you one.

See what I mean.....

It just seems like every time I place an order, [some-to-most of those products on that order are on sale shortly thereafter. Thanks for the reply, D. PS: Do you have a lot of the microfiber towels at present? :]

.... to be the Daily Special for the day?

Love those SVT Lightnings. Great job.

What is that? Their webpage doesn't even have anything called that. YankeeCandle.com

PM me too if you need some guidance...

No. You're over-reading it. He means the very top layer of the clear coat as in thickness or depth of application/finish. In most cases, and as a general rule, clear coat is applied at about 2-3 Mills thickness OEM, where the actual color is applied at around 1-1.5 Mills Mill standard = .001 inches or .0254 mm [millimeters]. Yeah, not as much as you probably thought. You can now gauge why "burning" through the clear coat is really not that difficult of a task..... and why I'm a huge fan of the Porter Cable 7424XP Polisher over the Flex XC3401VRG Polisher for novices like myself. Hope this helped.

This is generally true but not always a sure method. I've found thru personal experience that pressure - or the correct amount - is the best method to avoid burns.... moreso than regular movement of the pad. I've been taught this is always a sure indicator of [severe] clearcoat burn. Even the slightest paint residue transfer onto a pad is a [near] sure sign of clearcoat burn. Also, unfortunately, it's almost always a case of "too late." Cloudiness is a sign that excess cleartcoat has been removed. Let me paste a section from another board that a member wrote when a near identical situation as yours was encountered by a user -- Quote - "The top layer of the clearcoat contains most of the Ultra Violet blocking material and is also [much] harder and less porous than the lower level. Cutting through this top layer leaves the weaker clearcoat underneath, which will oxidize [cloud] faster. The result is the cloudiness you speak of or a sunburned appearance as you seemed to imply. There is really no cure for this except repainting. This is why you cannot buff out scratches you can feel with your fingernail because it goes too deep into the clearcoat. Clearcoat is only about as thick as a piece of cellophane." Hope this helped.

Not sure if that's a tongue-in-cheek comment....... I'm gonna' cal a spade, a spade here. I dealt with Chemical Guys for almost 4 years. Throughout that period, I called them regularly for product info, issues, concerns, tips and whatnot - especially in the first year where I probably called them every couple of weeks or so - and my calls were always answered the first time. Their customer service, on all levels, was never an issue..... it was numerous steps/products I had to use to achieve the desired result.

I stand to be corrected but Chemical Guys is owned by a group of businessmen/friends who are more "silent" partners than hands-on operations. There is no "Mr. Chemical Guy" per se. Barry Meguiar no longer owns Meguiar's. 3M Co. now owns Meguiar's Inc since the 2008 purchase. Steve [Poor Boy's owner] is actually very humble and approachable. He doesn't forget he came from next to nothing back in the day and worked his butt off to where he and his [small] company is today. Griot's Garage [pfftt...] does not interest me the slightest bit.

Mike, I used Chemical Guys' products exclusively for a good length of time. Truth be told, I still use two of their products. One, because Adam's doesn't make a car scent and the other product because it has served me well for a good length of time and I think it's the best on the market. I live by the rule "if it ain't broke, then don't try'n fix it." While I still believe their [Chemical Guys] products are of high-to-very high quality, my issue with them was the same issue I had with Meguiar's, Pinnacle, Poorboy's, Mother's, Migliore and Zaino.... some [far] moreso than others. I had to go thru too many [arduous] steps to achieve the desired results I so yearned for. Now the end results were great with all the other companies I dealt thru, but, like I mentioned some time ago, with a young family at home I prefer to spend every spare minute with my family rather than my hobbies. Being more efficient and productive to the tasks at hand becomes a serious priority when you have a family. This is where Adam's Premium Car Care products come in, and, quite frankly, are the shizzle. With Adam's products, I get results on par with the others - often much better - with considerable less time and elbow grease involved. Adam's just makes the entire detailing process very SIMPLE [and fun] with next to no BS involved. From a "basic" detail to a "full-blown" paint restoration, Adam's provides the minimal products required with professional results. I could not say that same statement about any of the other companies I've previously dealt with. Adam's talks-the-talk, but they certainly walk-the-walk to back their claims. Providing an easy to navigate webpage with great video clips, very descriptive product information and reviews from real users, a message board with many astute and helpful users as well as staff who frequent to answer technical questions [among others], 110% money back satisfaction guarantee on everything they sell and a "made in the U.S.A" policy.... all separates Adam's Premium Car Care from the rest equates to a winner! Also, little things like color matching two products to make it easier on the buyer as to what goes with what, are the tiny things that spark my interest.... and money. Being able to use PayPal is another little plus for me. To top it off, their customer service - I'll be honest - is something I've experienced before two or three times at best over more than 20 years of detailing.... and I've resided in two different contries/continents. I could go on for several more paragraphs, but I'm sure your mental picture is now starting to appear. If you've managed to get this far, thanks for reading.
