0 Ricky Bobby Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 What are you "in need of" on your shelf? I can recommend some products you are out of or low on, for replacement. If you wash weekly, I suggest Car Shampoo or Rinseless Wash. As far as one Adam's tool, Wheel Woolie or Lug Nut/Trim brush. Many uses for both.

0 SYMAWD Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Car shampoo is always a good start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Ricky Bobby Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Super VRT is all I use on tires and black plastic trim. Very versatile and highly recommended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Sizzle Chest Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 SuperVRT is the bomb. LOVE it. That and his applicator for tire dressing... Seriously, all of his products are excellent. Some of my favorties are: SuperVRT, Detail Spray, Glass Cleaner, Quick Sealant... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 SYMAWD Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 I don't need anything lol. Thoughts on the SVRT ? It's awesome. Just pick anything from Adam's and you'll probably love it. Rick72 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Rick72 Posted October 31, 2014 Author Share Posted October 31, 2014 My first order has been placed! Cockpit Brush Super VRT Block Sponge Hex tire dressing applicator (I have used this before) I will compare the SVRT with the two dressings I currently use. Am I allowed to name the others here on the forum? Ricky Bobby 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I allowed to name the others here on the forum? Yes you're allowed to name it, I've used several others as well and I still find Super VRT to be one of the best. Just be sure to scrub your tires down well with a good APC before applying the dressing, otherwise you won't get desired results. Blocks are great for dressing trim, Tire sponge great for tires obviously. Cockpit brush is great for deep cleaning seats and interior panels before applying dressing.

0 Rick72 Posted October 31, 2014 Author Share Posted October 31, 2014 Thanks for your business Rick! Look forward to trying the Super VRT! I've been lurking on this forum for a while and eyeing up the products for even longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 theKID Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 I started by buying the 2 bucket wash kit. Then a week later I ordered Tire & Trim Combo, Deep Wheel Cleaner, Tire Shine, Glass Cleaner and glass cleaning towels, Total Interior Detailer and utility towels.

0 CMDChase Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Next order, make sure you get Tire Shine and applicator sponge. Best move you'll make. I was a solid VRT fan for many years, but I found that Tire Shine blows it away. (VRT still has its place on trim, plastics, etc,.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a HUGE fan of low gloss tires, give me a deep black low sheen and I am in heaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Junior Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 You will love SVRT. It makes the tires look so nice. I agree with Chase and Jason the main products you need to look at going forward would be Detail Spray, Car Shampoo, a wash mitt and Rinseless Wash. Oh and two buckets with the grit guards ard a must. All those allow you to keep swirls to a minimum. Then youll want to progress to paint protection and possibly correction. It becomes a battle against paint damage. I guarantee this place will educate you and help you with the proper weapons and methods to keep you ride in great shape. You will not find a more responsive or knowledgeable group of detail fanatics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not gone into the correction direction and am lucky enough to have what I consider a world class detailer here in Baltimore, Mike Lambert at The Shine Shop. I currently use the "Three Bucket Method" with one dedicated for wheels. I use multiple wash mitts for the wash to reduce chance for swirls and marring, Foam gun and the best Microfibers I can find and a Metro Air force blaster for drying water traps and tires. I am however new to the Adams line of products and look forward to learning more about them and using them! Now the adams videos - I may be able to recite word for word! Keep the product advice coming! I love it. Ricky Bobby 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Junior Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 You bet. Would you believe there is a three bucket wash method which would actually make yours a three plus one? There was a video of it a while ago, not sure it still exists. Anyway, sounds like you are definitely a fanatic and well ahead of where I was when I first ordered some of the Adams product line. I consider myself OCD about my cars. I detail my own cars and some cars of friends and family for a little extra cash. A coworker put me onto it years ago and I have come miles from where I was in knowing how to keep my black cars looking right. One thing about Adams is you get what you pay for. I know it is a bit more price wise, but I'll tell you the three key things in my opinion that set them apart: 1) Product performance 2) Product support 3) Dedication to the customer. The third one is probably the most important. This company from the top down wants you to be happy. It seems like such a simple concept, but so many companies miss that target by a million miles and really couldnt care less because of the quantity versus quality ideals. I work for a company that is built on the same principle of putting the customer first so it is easy for me to key in on that when I see it in action. They are loyal to me as a customer and I am loyal in return. I may be going a bit overboard here, but just really enjoy this stuff! Welcome to the family Rick!

The cost is more in some cirumstances but no more costly than AMMO or Pinnacle. There is an absolute sense of community here that can only be driven by customer service.
