Good Riddance , all he wanted to do was change everything that has worked for years.

I guess you haven't been using Adams products very long because Dylan was behind most of the products that "worked well for years"... For years

maybe matt can be the SHINE DUCK

If we where playing "hot or cold", you wouldn't be cold.

infact you would have third degree burns

For my Jeep, LED headlights and adapters to attach my outside mirrors to the window frame so I can ride with doors off.

I got the quadratech LEDs and it was the best investment ive put into it yet

First 12 people who post or who is going to be there? I'm across the county but don't mind some hgg

I'm not trying to wash the entire car, I'm trying to remove the dew, which is on the hood, top, and trunk, as well as front and rear glass.

 

I think I stated this in the original post.

 

The idea isn't to keep the car "perfect", it's to keep water spots from baking in the sun all day long on the surface. If you want to let them bake, go ahead, I don't. Just want a safe way to remove it, thanks to the others who offered suggestions.

Wasn't being rude just asking if you could honestly see yourself doing that--that's all

What do you do if you drive to work in a storm and it gets sunny all day and bakes the dirty rain water on your car?

As long as you have some type of protection on it you will be ok, for a car that sits outside all day i would recommend liquid paint sealant

I coated my wrangler about a month after I got it and it has made life much easier, I haven't washed it in about two weeks (it's been raining everyday) and it really helps things stay clean, Adams will be offering one in the near future

Again didn't want be to rude just realistic

do you really see yourself waking up early to wash your car everyday before work?

IMHO having a perfect car that sits outside all the time just isnt realistic (i have 3 cars and no garage)

i just wash each car once a week and deal with it lol

if i was looking for a nice SUV my top pick would be jeep grand cherokee

dylan what is the shelf life for it mixed with water to use as a drying agent, ive been using this for awhile and make a gallon at a time to replace my detail spray

i thought i read you were going to use an old adams bottle for a baby bottle and i was kinda like

there is literally nothing you can do about it lol... thats like saying well its supposed to rain today at 4pm but im going to wash my car anyway and then complaning that it rained lol

the bird dropping was fresh, i did waterless wash it, and wiped lightly, checked, no marking

 

the spray from tires is definitly from some sort of gravel/dirt, its a cream/light tan in color and is slightly "chunky"  you touch it and sand/dirt falls from the spots.  i just left that haha

unfortunatly with those big mud grapplers youre going to have that issue all the time lol...rinseless wash like said is your go to with that..unless you just want to wait until you have time to wash the truck

Just wanted to say thank you to Grabiaks and the Adams team for the dinner and clinic. I had a good time again along with my wife. Was also nice to see the good amount of people that showed up. Plus I'm proud to be a new owner of the cyclo! Also, keep an eye out for more paint protection items. Adams got to scare my wife and I with removing some deep scratches on my dirty car!

Even I was cringing on that one lol btw in the guy who was talking to you in the store with dan who's from uniontown as well

I will probably never need to use a gas PW on the car, but what is the "safe" max PSI for paint? Does hardness of clear coat matter? Does the Cleaning Units matter (psi x gpm)?

with a higher pressure washer (2500-3000) you have to be careful, but im sure if you keep the distance from the paint you wont do any damage

hope this weather passes..

whats the AR part number

parker part number is a BST-2M

if you go that route, youd be best to buy a Parker BST-N2M as well, as thats the part that goes into the MTM and will be gaurenteed to fit the bst-2m

I actually have one of those red Velcro 4" applicators.. Grabiaks had them last time I was up

tomorrow is april...just sayin lol

IMO the bad car washes are the ones that arent touchless...this winter was bad and i took my brand new jeep through touchless ones about 4-5 times over the couple months to get the salt off,  last weekend i detailed my jeep to apply a coating to it and there were no swirls in the paint (i polished it the day after i got it)

adams was supposed to make a new nozzle, i use a walmart fire hose style and put a quick connect and a shut off valve at the end of the hose so i can go inbetween foam gun/nozzle and it works fine for 10$ ive had it for about 3 years now

how do you have half of a gallon of APC from 3 years ago lol i use like 2 gallons a year lol

wow that was great ryan

Thank you everyone for the greeting.  Looking forward to talking car care!
