WaterSpot Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Adams detailer slammed Meguiars. Spots after washing----threw Meg's in the trash. Why waste your time? jakerodz7, Rb1274, Nickfire20 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chonke Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Adams detail spray is awesome! Meguiars still makes some pretty good stuff, but theres a reason why almost all my detail products are now adams. I probably have like 4 bottles of non adams stuff, and half of that were gifts lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swexlin Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Adams Detail Spray is stil my main spray. Use Megs 34 for certain applications, but the new Matte Spray which I just tried just may replace the 34! jakerodz7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakerodz7 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I would agree that Adams detail spray is definitely one of the best, i never quite liked Megs Pink DS, I was and am still a big fan of their X wax, but Adams detail spray is amazing, especially as a drying aid.

jakerodz7 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Yeah I never liked Megs quik wax... hmmm Quik wax is pretty streaky, I was talking about Synth. Xpress Wax. Just to clarify. ExcellentAmp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swexlin Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I'm talking about Megs 34 Final Inspection from their professional side. Like the new Matte Spray, it has no additives (body shop safe) but is nice and slick. Still in my arsenal, but the new Adam's Matte is really really nice! jakerodz7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was considering getting an non additive DS, I quite enjoy the regular Adams DS but would like something that is easier to work with in the sun, since the carnauba in the Adams makes it a tad bit more difficult to work with. Does the matte detail spray seem to be easy to work with in the sun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to buy a gallon of this stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHOKUS Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 The key to using Detail Spray in the direct sun is moving fast and several fresh towels. Though I haven't tried the newest drying towel yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocdrifter Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I use one new towel and move like a turtle lol, does the job great and never have a problem with streaks.

galaxy Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Agree...meguiars makes some really great products, but agree their QD isn't one of them. In my pre Adams days, even Mothers QD was better. But yea, Adams takes the cake! I still keep Mothers around though for wasteful jobs like clay baring and other odd jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot87 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 (edited) I gave a new 32 oz. bottle of Meguiar's QD to a coworker the day after I used Adam's Detail Spray for the first time. Edited July 23, 2017 by slapshot87 Nickfire20 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickfire20 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 The one and only time I used Megs detailer was at least 10yrs ago, the first time I bought clay and clayed my car. Their spray wax wasn't too bad, and their tire jel was ok too. Prior to that I never used a detailer, just soap and water, and probably a horrible paste wax. Then Griots popped up at my local Advanced auto, i went exclusively to their products up til the beginning of this year when I discovered the best!!! I found Adam's on either fb or insta. Tried the detail spray and it was all up hill from there. Griots original detailer, speed shine, streaked and blotched a lot for me, but it was always on a black car, I got their new Best of show stuff in December, I thought it was the best thing ever, but it would still streak sometimes. I tried a lot of stuff, but could never figure it out. I still have a little of each left, not sure what I'll do with them. Because..... I now have 2 gallons of Adams pink plus 4 16oz bottles, I use to use it sparingly, but now I just have at it. I use it on everything, cars and house stuff alike. And I am now exclusive to Adams. slapshot87 and ocdrifter 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocdrifter Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I use to buy their stuff, but because of bad customer service with nastyness I dropped them like a bad habit. I have been a adams customer since the days at the OC Fair. It's great to see a company become the best! The customer service is the best and that's why I'm still here.
