ledger64 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I think this marketing campaign shows that the traditional gear head is slowing dying. Changing of the times. American muscle is dying. Exotic, and flashy are in. It shows that you can put a paint job costing thousands on anything, camber the wheels so they wear uneven and make the exhaust sound raspy and be the coolest thing since the other side of the pillow. Not that there is anything wrong with it but I guess its just not for me. There is a new generation out there, marketing is geared towards them. Bring me back, Gas powered lifted trucks with 15" - 16" wheels on big 35" tires old school lowered vehicles that performed as good as they looked Rear wheel drive cars with v8 motors that have a manual transmission. A lumpy cam and a throaty exhaust. Nickfire20 and SumBeach35 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is a manual transmission though, are they still being offered in cars/trucks these days? ledger64 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocdrifter Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 No wyatt, it's not a scrub pad and I thought you were a detailer, that is a clay glove. Another new product coming soon! Looks like an interior scrub pad Mariner and Nathan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illusive_s550 Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) No wyatt, it's not a scrub pad and I thought you were a detailer, that is a clay glove. I actually don't think it's a clay mitt. If you look at the other clay mitts available for sale, they are all one solid surface; in other words, it's one uniform piece of clay, without the tiny holes. It's completely possible that Adam's has decided to formulate a clay mitt that's completely different, but from what I've seen to be characteristic of clay mitts, that doesn't appear to be one.

Last_cast Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Trust me you're not missing anything. I deleted fb months ago and it was the best thing I've ever done. I have Instagram but that's it. Facebook drama during political season did it in for me. My only regret is I hadn't deleted it years ago. Deleted mine during the elections. Don't care for it. I'm 27 and could care less. Instagram is cool. Get to see cool pictures. blcksilv08 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chonke Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Deleted mine during the elections. Don't care for it. I'm 27 and could care less. Instagram is cool. Get to see cool pictures. I deleted mine many years ago, and then when I found out some family members from far away have facebook, I created one again. Mostly to keep in touch with them, and old friends who moved away. A lot of funny stuff going on in there too lol I think this marketing campaign shows that the traditional gear head is slowing dying. Changing of the times. American muscle is dying. Exotic, and flashy are in. It shows that you can put a paint job costing thousands on anything, camber the wheels so they wear uneven and make the exhaust sound raspy and be the coolest thing since the other side of the pillow.

A lumpy cam and a throaty exhaust. I wouldnt exactly say muscle is dying. It might have back in the 2000s but right now ford chevy and dodge are putting out some very impressive cars giving german cars a run for their money. I know not too long ago, the zr1 had broken all the GTRs records, a cadillac v held the record of fastest sedan, and the 13 mustang gt500 had the highest hp v8 out of a stock production v8. Plus the Boss 302, Z28, and 1LE beating all kinds of competition at the track. And theyve only been improving since then. Now even dodge is claiming bragging rights with their hell cat and demon. I would say muscle is very well alive right now. The reason we see a lot of exotics, and fancy cars in ads is all due to marketing and demographics. There are a lot of people here with fast muscle cars, but you will find a ton more buying mods and things to go faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at normal detailing clay and then look at Adam’s clay, a different type of clay with a geoelastic tool. This is a clay mitt, and know that it will marr so polishing after is required.

Lol You should never be taking any chances on a customer car. Always know what you're getting yourself into before you start Unrelated, but this thread has carried on enough with questionable comments from multiple people that I let slide.
