    It came!!!!!!!

    Nice! Been wanting the long neck version for some time. Maybe Adams will come out with an alternative and little more economical version to go with their other line up of polishers. Hint hint.
  2. Adams Posters or vinyl banner for my garage walls.
  3. Ordered 2 Mystery boxes along with Gen 5 4" pad set & license plate; total ship weight 2.9 lbs. Hoping for a gift card!
  4. An updated kit with the new grey borderless instead of the single softs would be nice and color coridinated, with no additional cost.
  5. That's what I did this past weekend and it worked great. Rinseless wash/dry, then filled bottle with distilled water and double soft towel damp with some distilled water. Just drenched a panel with water and spritzed a little HGG on panel, wiped around with damp double soft and buffed dry with a dry double soft. I liked this method because I could see the HGG activate on the panel and for me it went smoother than the dry method that has you spray the HGG on the towel and wipe onto the section.
  6. Tried the H2O product yesterday for the first time. Due to the California drought, did my usual rinseless wash. Afterwards decided to give H20 a try and wanted to try the "dry" method, but after doing a section I ended up preferring a "hybrid" type method that might be an extra step for some, but was easier for me and works well in my garage. Used a double soft towel soaked in distilled water like the dry method shows, a large Qwazar spray bottle filled with distilled water. Soaked a section well, then squirted the H20 on wet area and watched it activate (very cool to see), spread with the damp double soft and dried with another double soft. Very cool product that really made the car look great and was very easy to apply and remove.
  7. Here in Fresno, CA off their site it states:. Car washing is still bucket-only with a hose equipped with a nozzle for a quick rinse. I think this is only on your water days, I assume. I use waterless, but would like to do a foam/full strip wash but will try to just strip wash it waterless. Does or has anyone cleaned wheels with deep wheel cleaner and cleaned wheel wells with APC without use of a hose? Kinda like a waterless/bucket or sprayer version? Probably not an easy choice and just might have to break out the hose and take my chances with the city and HOA community.
  8. KBS Coatings Rust Seal and all their products. Also made in the USA.
  9. Sounds like since I just bought some orange hex, that it might be my best bet and just do it by hand for now while I get my feet wet with the cyclo; especially since the use of a smaller machine would be used in limited areas at this time. Still like that Flex, but think it would be wise to wait, plus it gives me another excuse to use that money to buy more Adams products. . Thanks for the help!
  10. Going to be purchasing a cyclo polisher soon, but was wondering the best way to handle tight spots like around spoiler, door jams, front and rear bumper areas that are tight with a lot of hard to get to spots and curves (2014 Mustang). I like the looks of the Flex PE8 and its small pad ability, but it is a rotary and not sure if it's a good idea for a novice, and also the Rupes LRH75E, though it is a little bigger but an orbital polisher and looks like it would be easier to use in tight areas. I know this would be something used minimally compared to what I would use the cyclo on, but was looking for feedback and suggestions on how to handle tight areas to polish and maybe correct. Use one of these machines or do those areas by hand? The car is in good like new condition for the most part, but I just want to do the job as best as possible and continue to keep it that way. Thanks.
  11. The Adams "A" logo in blue like shown or something similar would be a great sticker to offer for sale and go towards the cause.
  12. Our car is garaged and after initial clay/ liquid sealant/glaze/Americana, I've only needed to do a waterless wash with the rinseless solution and followed up with detail spray to maintain. Would this new product be something to use every month or two after a wash to add protection or is people going to use it after each wash? If used every month or two, would I just do a waterless wash and then this H2o sealant and skip the detail spray that time around? Thanks and looking forward to upcoming user testimonials. ????
  13. I hope it is this week. I have several other things I want to order and it would be great to order it all together. ????
  14. This is what I would Ike to see, but in a rinseless/waterless version for us living in California (drought restrictions) and those living in a HOA or apartment environment. ????
  15. I just ordered some bonami based off the above suggestion for stubborn water spots on the glass. I got the liquid version in hopes it works the same as the powder but might be easier to use on vertical surfaces like the car windows.
  16. I'd also like to see the logo ones available. A magnetic version instead of a "sticker" would be great too.
  17. I am going to be purchasing the cyclo next month and have been reading up on suggestions on how to approach it. I too am going to be attempting a first machine polish on my daughter's 2014 Mustang that is mostly garaged and the paint is overall pretty good, few water spots etc, and figured the orange foam pads would be the best ones to start with. I did it by hand when we first got it, but would like to give the machine option a try this time for better results. I ran across this post from Adam and he went straight to the Microfiber Orange pads right from the start regardless of the condition of the paint, granted he was doing multiple cars and time management was important, so I too was curious about the skipping of the orange foam pads and going straight with the microfiber orange. I'm sure I will still start with the orange foam but was curious as to why Adam skipped the foam orange and went with microfiber orange regardless of the condition of the paint. http://www.adamsforums.com/topic/26941-paint-correcting-polish-just-1-step-id-love-your-input-please/?p=424185
  18. Thanks for all the help. Yes, the quick sealant will be used on them as well afterwards.
  19. Going to do our first claying on my daughters new 2014 Mustang tomorrow, do you also go over the headlight and tailight areas or just skip them? There was slight water spots on the rear tailight panel, but not sure if the Revive might take them out. Is there any risk of scratching tailight area that is shiny black plastic? Any tips would be great. Thanks.
  20. No, I was just meaning if say I was doing the "Revive", I could do the whole car with that product then wipe and buff off before proceeding to applying the next product.
