    07stanggt got a reaction from stalebreadjr in 1st place finishes   
    I attend many high end car shows with my Mustangs and although the parts aren't Adams, all the detailing is ! I get so many compliments on the paint of both cars, the 07 stang was at a show in Boston and I had the head judge ask me if the paint was factory done, I told him absolutely it was, he asked because 5 other judges looked at it and they said it wasn't !!  
    Lovin the shine !!

    Welcome! I think first place needs to post some pics of their cars 
    and yes, I cannot think of any other company big or small with such attention to their customers.

    07stanggt reacted to Norton in Figuring Out New Polishes Lineup   
    I've used Adam's products for a long time, during which I've seen polishing systems come and go. IIRC... 3-steps (green, orange, and white) went to 2-steps (orange and white). Then, we went back to 3-steps (blue, orange, and white). Now, we're back to 2-steps (blue and white). Somewhere in there, a 1-step (purple) option also became available.  This can be confusing (and a bit frustrating when you've invested in pads/polishes).  The good news is Adam's R&D is ongoing - each new generation/product (line) improves on the previous one. That said and with all due respect to the company's desire for sales, I've never stressed over the upgrades or found it necessary to discard products I have in favor of what's "new." As long as they remain serviceable, you should finish what you have on hand before migrating to new stuff.  More importantly, we've always had the option of mixing/matching polishes and pads as desired/needed - as long as they're still serviceable, "old" pads work just fine with "new" polishes. (e.g., When working on my wife's BMW several years ago, I found that blue Heavy Correcting Compound on an orange Correcting Pad was the "right" combination to correct the damage, followed by orange Correcting Polish on another orange Correcting Pad to "finish" the job. Neither MF nor blue pads were required.) 
     
    The best guide when integrating new products into your routine is to always use the least aggressive means to achieve the finish you want. With that in mind and when you've exhausted your existing polishes/pads, I recommend buying both the new Compound and Polish, along with their respective color-coded pads. Working on a test area of your vehicle, see if Polish and its pad achieve the look you want. If so, finish the job with them, knowing that Compound is available if/when you get deeper swirls/scratches. If not, migrate to the more aggressive Compound on its pad (or a MF pad), knowing you may need to perform a second step Polish when you're done Compounding. (FWIW, I don't worry about Finishing Polish/Pads on anything but my show cars. Correcting Polish/Pads always gets me what I want on the daily drivers.) Based on @falcaineer's description, it sounds like the new Compound delivers results against damage that previously required Heavy Correcting Compound while finishing better than Correcting Polish, thanks to the chemical geniuses at Adam's!

    Well guys I thought you knew me better than that, haven't you seen any of my previous posts, lol ! Of course I can get these scratches out ! No gauges needed here knowing how hard the clear coat is on Mercedes. I did the worst part of the scratches with Adams Heavy Correcting Polish, then did two more steps with Adams Correcting Polish and Finish Polish and then a coat of Adams Machine Sealant was applied and then topped off with a coat of Adams Americana Wax. Flex 3401 machine was  used and Adams correcting pads as well. Coat of machine sealant used on wheels and VRT applied on tires. Great products and techniques were used to bring the perfection back to this totally trashed paint, so don't let anyone tell you that you cant get scratches out of your paint if you have a mishap here and there. Here are some pics for you.

    Almost everything on the “Specials” and “Flash Sale” is out of stock and has been that way for quite some time.
    Somebody at HQ has to monitor the forum.  Pass this on to the correct person in Sales or Marketing.
    Thank you SIM CAMARO for posting this.

    Didn't he ever check on his ride?  I'd correct it for him, and then suggest he loosen the purse strings for an INDOOR storage area next winter.  I feel sorry for that car.

    So after a long winter, a buddy of mine leaves his Mercedes SL 500 in an outside shelter type of garage for cars. Over time this past winter, the front door where it comes together to enclose the car in the garage, had come apart somehow and had blown for months on the hood, front facia, headlights, passenger and drivers side quarter panels, totally trashing the paint and leaving behind lots of marring, scratching, water spots as well as blowing leaves etc all over the inside of the car shelter !! Do you think I can get these scratches out ? Check in the next couple days and I will post up the results...…...
