Welcome back Dylan. Like Dorothy said, "There's no place like home." And Adam's polishes is your true "home".

Also, the C10 is looking bad ***, keep up the great work!

Cool story bro.

Wish I had a garage. At least I have a carport though, I can work in the shade but I'm still technically exposed to the weather.

I have not had a stain yet that the Carpet and Upholstery cleaner could not remove.

This idea has actually already been adopted by several Adams authorized vendors. That's how I got hooked on Adams. I've always just usedover the counter products (yep, I just didn't know any better) and I thought that Adams was way overpriced, so I was very hesitant to order any product even though I had heard tons of great reviews. Jarrod at Bulldog Car Care was a vendor on a truck forum I frequent, and he was selling a "4oz Adams sampler kit" which had about 6 of 7 different products in it. So I figured that was the cheapest way for me to tty out Adams products firsthand, without shelling out over $100 to do so. To make a long story short, I was beyond impressed with EVERYTHING I tried. I quickly realized that "you get what you pay for" and I had been paying for garbage all these years for products from auto parts stores. I definitely see the value in Adams products, and that's why I will continue to buy them even though they cost FAR more than over the counter products. But I can justify the higher price because the products work FAR better than the over the counter stuff.

So in a nutshell, I think its a great idea, and you can even gain new customers by offering such a 4oz kit. Once new customers try the products, they will be hooked, just like I got hooked.

Like mentioned above, SCRUB it with All Purpose Cleaner. Use a medium to stiff bristled brush. If you can't get a brush into all areas , use a Mr. Clean magic eraser to scrub the tight spots with APC. I've heard other folks make fun of the magic eraser, but it works wonders when I use it with APC to scrub the black plastics on my truck, especially the tight area on top of my bumper cap, betwenn the bumper and grill. Its only about an inch between the grille and the bumper cap (which is black plastic) and the magic eraser and APC works great in that area.After its completely clean, be sure to treat it with Super VRT or In and Out Spray.

I only wash my truck about once a month. But the wheels don't get dirty hardly at all because I have brake pads that produce VERY little dust. Even with only a monthly wash, car shampoo will usually get my wheels clean. Or else I clean them with All Purpose Cleaner. I don't even own any wheel cleaner, because the APC has always gotten them clean even at their filthiest. The APC even does a good job of cleaning the brake dust off my wife's car. She has a 2014 Altima, which seems to produce a LOT of brake dust. Spray it with APC, let sit for almost a minute, and agitate with a brush or even just a microfiber towel, and they come clean as a whistle after hosing them off.

Welcome from Shreveport. I'm originally from your area though (Eastern New Orleans to be exact) and I moved upstate after my home was destroyed in hurricane Katrina. Looking forward to updates on the 72 as well!

I guess you CAN polish a turd!

Must take MONTHS to make even one video!  

Funny stuff!!!

You can use that on your paint, but be careful. Do not get the tip of the spray wand any closer than about 15" or so. Also, use a medium to wide fan spray nozzle. Do NOT use a narrow spray tip!

Awesome!!

Hopefully it will come off somewhat easily with the layers of protection that you have on there.

One word: sick!

Keep us posted on the outcome.

I've used Mothers metal polish on the bottom of some copper clad cookware. So I can easily see the Adams metal polishes being able to polish copper as well.

Welcome to the forums, and welcome to a new addiction.

You will soon be addicted to the shine.

Can't tell for sure just by looking at it. But if it catches a fingernail, then it's through the clear coat.

On a brand new car, I would probably make an insurance claim on that repair unless you have a high deductible.

Wow Matt, that's awesome work!!!

^^^This.

The customer service is one of the reasons I am a loyal Adams customer.

Personally, I would make a plate and mount some 6.5" separates there. A cheap plastic cutting board is the perfect material to use to make the speaker plate. Wood can get wet and rot or warp.

Welcome from Shreveport, LA.

I'm originally from NOLA though, and I go back down there pretty often to visit my family. I was just down there this weekend actually.

The average consumer will connect the term "buffing" with a rotary polisher, and most people will simple think of waxing when you say "polishing" to them. Here is what the average consumer thinks:

Buffing: using a machine to correct swirls and/or scratches

Polishing: applying a wax or similar product to make my car look more "wet" or more shiny.

Off topic a bit, but can Waterless Wash be used as a clay lube? I still have a bottle of it and I was thinking about using it as a clay lube. I mainly just use it for cleaning door jambs and trunk jambs. I do not own any rinse less wash yet, but I think I will purchase some soon after reading about the cost effectiveness of it.

All purpose cleaner, full strength if possible and warm water.

I concur.
