Woodybc Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 While shopping for a used truck, my wife saw a Black 2012 Ram 2500 diesel crew cab. She loved it, I love everything except the color. Not because I don't like black vehicles, I think they look great when clean, but this truck had obviously taken through automatic car washes often. It was swirled up really bad, and for someone who is a little OCD about their vehicles it wouldn't be good to own it. We ended up buying it and I tried lots of auto store products to try and clean up the finish. Clay bars, waxes, etc always to my complete dissatisfaction. I began shopping for a brand new truck in a different color (silver, white,) but was looking to take at least a 10k hit on the deal. A friend of mine has a black vehicle and it always looks flawless. He recommended Adams Polishes to me. One phone call to an extremely knowledgeable and helpful gentleman, and a box of products were on the way. A few days later a box arrived containing a polisher, pads, correcting polish, finishing polish, sealer, detailer, cloths, etc and I went to work. I watched Adams how-to videos, and went to work. Wash, clay bar, polish, and seal and after 6 hours, the paint looked AMAZING! There were some pretty deep scratches in the paint in places and about 95% are completely gone, with only the deepest ones still visible but just barely. I was completely blown away on how well each product worked. This truck is big, I took my time and really actually enjoyed the process seeing this truck go from something I wasn't really happy with and ready to sell, to a vehicle that looks better than new. Now I make excuses to walk out to the garage and run the back of my hand across the glossy, smooth finish. I can't express how happy I am with Adams Products! Since the comeback of the Rams finish, I've bought a complete kit for my son to turn him loose on his black WRX. (He's going to love his Christmas present). THANK YOU ADAMS POLISHES! Your products and people are fantastic! You saved me $10,000!!! Black Bowtie, 8675309'SS, Beemer and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodybc Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 Thanks for sharing, definitely need to see pics! Was this your first time using a polisher? Sorry, I didn't have the forethought to take before and after pictures. No it's not my first time with a polisher. Several years ago I used a buffer to finish a new clear coat paint. This system is spectacular! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Being a married man, I'm not sure if I'm happy for you or not. On one hand, you saved $10,000 by not buying a new truck. On the other hand...........A NEW TRUCK!! I'm always looking for any excuse to spend time at a dealership. You understand, right?
