Wow, amazing work! I'd love to do this to my F150, but that is a large vehicle to wet sand lol.

H2O guard on ceramic coating
Gremlin85 replied to snapper23's question in Exterior Protection & Enhancement
I can see it being redundant if on a show car or a vehicle that is stored inside a garage with minimal use in inclement weather. Adam using H2O GG on his Jeep or Denali over Ceramic Coating is just helping prolong the ceramic coating on a daily driver that sees all kinds of weather. If your vehicle is parked outside and/or is driven daily, why not add additional protection over ceramic coating? It's not going to any shows to win awards so 100% clarity and depth is a non-issue, so keep up the longevity of the ceramic coating by adding GG or a wax, sealant or whatever you choose. -

This happened to my 2013 FX4 except it was the driver side. Had it replaced by Safelite under insurance -$0 Deductible in MA. Wasn't going to bother with the dealer because they wouldn't get it in any time soon and most dealers use an out-side glass company anyway. Sucks that this happens, but at least the rear glass and trim are brand new and keeps the truck looking new

So I've been using Adam's products almost exclusively now for about 4 years. I have used almost everything they have come out with, with only the exception to some newest products and things I don't have too much of a use for (like metal polish or Patriot Wax). The very first product I ever used was Adam's Detail Spray. Hooked ever since. I always keep a bottle with me for this or that - I use it on my paint obviously but also my nav screen, computer screen, cell phone and other various things that I want to clean and help resist fingerprints a little bit. A co-worker was about to clean his computer screen with alcohol wipes. I immediately stopped him and showed him how I clean the computer screen with Adam's Detail Spray. He tried it on his and was hooked. Another co-worker heard us doing this and asked to use it on their screen, then the next person wanted to try. Then the next one and the next. All of a sudden everyone is using my detail spray lol. I told them how I use it on my nav screen in my truck, then they all had to try it. Everyone is HOOKED! They love it and the smell! Can't beat Adam's stuff!!!

Ceramic Wheel Coating - Multiple Coats?
Gremlin85 replied to Gremlin85's question in Wheels, Tires, Trim, & Undercarriage
Thank you. I should have been able to find that myself. Can't wait for it to be delivered so I can coat my new wheels! -
Ceramic Wheel Coating - Multiple Coats?
Gremlin85 replied to Gremlin85's question in Wheels, Tires, Trim, & Undercarriage
I wonder of more than 1 coat would diminish returns with a ceramic coating then? Is less certainly more in this case, or can I apply 2 coats for maximum protection? Adams care to chime in? -
Ceramic Wheel Coating - Multiple Coats?
Gremlin85 posted a question in Wheels, Tires, Trim, & Undercarriage
Would it be at all beneficial or would it be a waste of product to apply 2 coats of Ceramic Wheel Coating to new wheels? Would there be a process to do this if it was beneficial? Apply ceramic coating after prep, let cure 24 hours, reapply ceramic coating? Wait 24 hours to cure again, apply boost? Probably a waste? Any input? TIA! -
Introducing Adam's Ceramic Wheel Coating
Gremlin85 replied to Joe@Adams's topic in Company Info/Announcements
But in theory, if one was so inclined, we could apply the wheel coating to the paint? Extra hardness can go a long way me thinks. -

1967 Mustang Correction Concern - Unknown Repaint
Gremlin85 replied to Gremlin85's question in Paint Correction & Polishing
Thanks for the input and confirming my thoughts. Like I said, this is similar to a Maaco paint job, but wasn't done by Maaco. It was a body shop back in the 80's that isn't there anymore. It wasn't the cheapest paint job but it is by far from a really good one. I'm a little nervous by I'll work slow and test an area with the white foam pad and finishing polish. Just looking to brighten it up, not going all out show car crazy. -
1967 Mustang Correction Concern - Unknown Repaint
Gremlin85 posted a question in Paint Correction & Polishing
Hey Everyone, I'm just your run-of-the-mill Adam's user and addict. I usually polish my DD about once a year and continuously maintain it using pretty much all of Adam's products where needed. I have a quick question/concern and was looking to see if I'm on the right track. I was looking at polishing and correcting the better-half's 1967 Mustang that had a re-spray back in the late 80's. It was kind of like your Maaco respray today and it cost about $300-$400 to do it back then. I've attached a picture to give an idea of what I'm working with. The paint is like this all over the car. Again, this was done in the late 80's and there is NO information about it. It is currently covered in a garage and I was going to correct the paint, polish it up and repair a few things for a possible sale. It's been sitting for a little while and starting to show some age as it sits. I'm thinking of starting with the least aggressive approach first by using the white foam pad and white finishing polish as common sense denotes, but I'm thinking I should start with the orange foam pad and correction polish so that I'm not wasting too much time (limited time to work with - maybe one weekend for paint and a couple days for minor repairs). I have no idea what type of paint job this is and I am unable to measure it's thickness. I'm a little nervous to put anything to this paint without getting some feedback from you all first. So what do you think, just start slow with the white pad and polish, or could I test the orange foam pad and correction polish??? I know this shouldn't be this difficult, but I've never worked on a classic car or a resprayed car's paint and this is a 1967 Mustang we are talking about haha. Anyone able to tell just by this picture? Thanks! -
This is PURE GOLD. I can't tell you how many times I've avoided my plastic cluster cover due to the fact that it is so easily scratched. I thought I'd never be able to safely remove those scratches, but this proves me wrong! I'm so happy you shared this. I cannot wait to try this out on my own cluster!
