Total interior detailer?

Sweeeeet! I think this is a smart move, and a necessary move to keep your customers. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has many other products from competitors to fill the void where Adams couldn't, so I think this is a great move. Kind of bummed right now, I JUST ordered a Flex yesterday. Had I seen this I would have loved to support Adams.
Thanks guys!

Carpet protectant, and maybe something wheel specific. I'm on the fence right now about order a set of polished CCW wheels. Everyone who I've talked with says to keep a layer of wax on them at all times because any water spots become stubborn if left on too long without any sort of protection.
I've seen on other websites wheel specific wax/wheel protectants. Is there a need for this, or is buttery/americana a good rim protectant?

Which PC, which backing plate, and which size pad and what type of pad are you trying to rotate.
7424xp, adams backing plate, 7" adams foam pads
Make sure you have the fiber washer on the backing plate.
I've had one over the years act up thoug, sounds similar. Time to upgrade to a Cyclo.
Hmm, I dont know what fiber washer you speak of. Ill have to research what you mean
In addition to the above questions, what speed are you running the PC?
5 with polish. 1-2 for sealant/wax application
I had a similar problem with mine and sent it back to have fixed. They said one of the little white wires was coming loose off the motor from vibration.
Did you send it directly to pc? What was teh turn around time/price?

I think I am having trouble with my PC. I noticed when I apply pressure, the pad barely wants to spin. for example, when I had my black pad on and was applying machine super sealant on low speed, I wasnt getting any rotation. Also, while polishing, I am getting the same type of issue. It's to the point where I can barely apply any pressure otherwise the pad just wont spin at all.
Ive taken the backing plate off and had a quick look around, and it doesnt seem tlike there is anything that can be tightened to help with this problem. Any suggestions?

I will kindly take credit for the email we all received today

Any labor day sale coming? I need to place an order but decided to hold out for a couple of days to see if anything is coming

Looks awesome! I've been looking at picking up a wrx lately. Theyve been growing on me lately.
Offtopic - where has Dylan been?

Wow that really looks great. Nice looking truck
-
Take lots of pics!

I clean them pretty good with apc and the water definitely runs clear. Who knows, maybe I think they're clean but not enough? Im going to just replace them
-
Thanks for the info.
I use detail spray to prime, and I dont believe im using too much product. But I do believe if your 5-10 vehicle estimate is correct then I am at the end of its life cycle.
I think it's time to try the microfiber cutting pad combo'd with the white foam finishing pad.

Nice job on the scratch, and the rest of the car looks great. I can appreicate a good write-up. I did my moms regal last weekend, and much like every detail I do - I start out taking pics and end up getting too involved to stop and take pics. Well done
-
I use the adams foam pads on my pc with the older correcting polish, and during my last two details my orange pad has been ommiting orange dust like crazy, and I dont think im getting the same cut strength that I used to. Is this pad dead?
-
From the picture it looks like it's pretty deep. Im sure a 2 step polish may make it a little less noticeable, but it looks like the paint may have been removed. Best of luck

Its probably your hard water

UNREAL collection! I was blown away with the ACR, let alone an authentic Cobra R and a GNX.
-
Quick sealant is definitley the ticket for a BBS style wheel. Great looking ACR
-
Doesnt get much better than that
-
I cant see the issue here either. TID is probably the mildest product I own and have never experienced a problem before and I use it on every surface in our cars.
Hope you get your problem rectifed

Looks really good! At first glance your new rims reminded me of the Super Snake rims. I love the super snakes, but these are a nice change, and look really fitting on your car. Nice choice
