  1. Just ordered a bunch of stuff including some revive and buttery wax to top over it so Ill give that a shot. Thanks all!
  2. Be worth it to try this first you think? https://adamspolishes.com/collections/exterior-polishing-liquids/products/adam-s-revive-fine-hand-car-polish That is used with blue hand applicator right? What is an easy to apply protectant for after that though? I cannot do the whole car nor am strong enough in arms to wax a lot..
  3. Hi all, have not been here in a while hope everyone is well! i have a couple oopsies on my truck, I knocked a drive through curb and got red stuck in my wheel scratch. And I dropped a white bed post across bed of truck leaving paint scratch in a couple places. Any idea ma on how to remove or clean up these without a power buffer or anything? I have a drill if maybe that backing plate thing would work. Thank you
  4. ok so you can use the leather conditioner on top of the interior detailer? Also the leather conditioner is ok for dashes, plastics, etc not just leather right?
  5. Need to replace my interior cleaning stuffs! Everything looks new here since last I bought. New interior detailer vs. foaming leather cleaner + new leather conditioner...? Vehicle is 2017 Silverado, no leather, has cloth seats. What is the proper choice? Thank you.
  6. Diode Dynamics, Here is my install with some pics and a link http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/157013-what-have-you-done-to-your-k2-today/page-762?do=findComment&comment=2006855
  7. Hi all, So my beloved BMW was totaled by a 20 year old girl doing her makeup Took the opportunity to change it up, and bought a 2017 Silverado. Loving the truck so far! Does anything special need to be done when washing engine bay on these? I added some underhood LED lighting (can't believe they stopped adding that in trucks) so Ill have cover the switch on that I think. Thanks!
  8. Cool thanks. I do have the Cyclo polisher... I bought it a just over a year ago with all the polisher chemicals. Think that stuff is still ok to use or should I replace? Been sitting in CA garage the whole time :/
  9. Cool thank you peeps. @Ricky when you say foam and correcting, do you mean the correcting polish that is part of the two step? Also, do you mean by hand? Thanks!
  10. Great, thanks all. So, is the "strip" wash necessary? That part scares me lol Regarding the products; correcting and finishing polish, liquid sealant, brilliant glaze, and buttery wax, I have had these for over a year I think sitting in my garage...will they still be good or should I replace?
  11. For some reason my computer was not downloading my phone images, lame, so it took a bit lol. Here are two pics. Not sure what sandpaper it was I didn't look. I was actually inside when his mom was sanding our mailbox to paint it, and my car was right there and he wanted to sand too I guess... oh well! lol Sticky Stuff and scratches pics attached.. scratches sticky
  12. Hi all, I know I asked something before a long while ago but I still haven't had the time or guts to try lol Now so many new products and a bad memory, I wanted to ask the steps for everything. So, a few questions; Should you "strip" wash before claying? Dawn or whatever? Then steps go, Clay Correct Polish After that, this is my daily driver car, so liquid sealant is what I would do. However, can/do you put glaze down first, under sealant? Make any sense to put glaze or buttery wax over sealant? Thank you.
  13. So washed car yesterday and there is always some stuff that doesn't come off for me, so usually after I walk around with a soft towel and detail spray and rub off anything. ( I cannot scrub very hard when I wash, I'm pretty weak ) I noticed on my roof something sticky, didn't look like tree sap, but even working hard with detail spray barely moved it. Is there something better to remove something like that? Secondly, the toddler managed to "wash" part of my car for me...using sandpaper. Yikes. Does not appear to be deep, but what is the best thing to work out some scratches in a section? Hand polish? Or the drill adapter set up? What is proper chemical to use with that BTW, and can I wax/seal just that section after? Thank you.
  14. I assume it happens for everyone, not just me. But when loading the main site, http://adamspolishes.com/all of the slides show first, kind of an annoying flash This is because the JavaScript for the slider has not yet loaded and fired. You should be able to fix it by controlling the visible state of each slide via CSS and then when the JS loads it will take control, something like this; .homepage-banner .slide { display: none; } .homepage-banner .slide:first-child { display: block; } Just a thought
  15. Thanks all, I will check it out in depth and go from there!
  16. Hmm, mini split. Never heard of that will have to investigate lol. Though, garage really has no insulation at all...
  17. I ordered the foam gun set right when announced so pretty sure I got one of the first shipments. Wondering if anyone else has issues with the spray gun being inconsistent or if just me? I noticed in several videos how smooth it is from spray to stream when handle pressure adjusted..whereas mine if not pressed all the way to stream it catches in a 'side-stream' like shooting out at an angle, really annoying. Hard to get a spray even. Just me.. ? :/
  18. I read that temps excess of 90 can be bad. I am in CA and keep everything in my garage, we have had some triple digits temps lately and I know my garage gets hotter than outside. The consistency of several products changed when I used them this weekend and I do not think worked as well. So my question is what do other people do for storing? It seems more of you all deal with freezing rather than melting Anyone deal with heat? Is there anything better to store in that helps "block" heat... I am hesitant to suggest temp controlled box or something lol, does such a thing exist? Carrying in and out of house would really not work for me...not much room, not much strength. Thanks for input!
  19. Awesome thank you for clearing it up! Are the hex grip ones still used for tires, or are peeps moving to the blocks for those as well? The 'sticky' feeling kinda yeah, not sure if anything else is on it. I know the dealer did an interior clean once...
  20. I thought I saw in a pic or video somewhere that there were new super VRT block applicators? Kind of concave or something? I don't see those in the shop though. Looks like upgraded sprayer nozzles as well? What is different there? The pumps for shampoo and dressings, do they consistently output a certain amount? I have trouble guessing. Are there borderless gray towels different than the utility towels? Is there something better better than utility towels for cleaning interior with? Maybe I just was scrubbing too hard but it was very sticky...supposed to be light passes? Thank you!
  21. Awesome, thank you all. Never occurred that it was that much dirtier, so I will try the multiple light cleaner passes. Also wondering if my leather conditioner may have gone bad (along with others) from sitting in garage that gets kinda hot here in CA
  22. Anyone have this? How do you clean it...? I tried spraying leather cleaning on rag and wiping it, seemed to get "sticky"ish.. I then applied leather conditioner to it, and black appeared to come off onto the red pad, not sure if dirt or color...But still not nice and "supple" like seats.
  23. Ok so this should probably be local only...just tried to ship it to someone cross country and UPS wanted $100... Lame!
