    Chops1sc, yes sir, that simple white screw on funnel makes it much better. Now with that and the yellow on/off gallon jug spout I found, it makes pouring W&T cleaner simple and mess free. I used another of these spouts to top off my Total Interior cleaner. Another thin product. It worked perfectly as well!

    Well I thought I did this along time ago but apparently I may not have.   So hello everyone, apparently I have been a long time lurker and not a big poster here.  I will be joining in on the conversations going forward.
     
    I have had the pleasure of using Adam’s products for quite a few years now.  I use them on all of my vehicles and have them all graphene ceramic coated.  This has helped so much especially with the Jeeps that see a lot of trail time here in Colorado.   I cannot count how lovely it is to see the protection of this coating and how easy it makes my weekly cleaning routines and the extra hard ones also after being in the dirt, snow, mud, and rocks that are thrown at me in most of these  environments.   I have been blessed to be located so close to the headquarters here in Colorado and make it easy for me to get product when it is needed.
     
    Thanks for the knowledge and look forward to new conversations. I will add some pictures for attention of my various Adam’s Polishes protected vehicles.

    Did a light correction and fresh Paint Sealant on the truck this weekend... Pretty happy with how it turned out given the relatively limited amount of time I put in compared to the absolute monster amount of painted surface I had to get through.
     
    It had been beaten to death by the dealer when I picked it up this spring, It's getting better and better each time I need some weekend therapy!

    I decided to be nice to my son-in-law while he is in Kazakhstan helping the investors open a new a restaurant. He'll be over there for a few weeks and he knows that it is an honor to be asked to travel internationally to help open a new place.  At least when the daughter gets to open another one, it should help the investors in knowing the setup is going to be well managed.
     
    Did the everyone else take the summer off and stop making vehicles shiny - seems like this thread hasn't been getting much attention lately.
     
    Here are a couple of pictures of the son-in-laws F-150 after being being stripped polished and coated with Graphene Spray Coating.  For those wondering about the new garage, I was informed on Thursday on that the materials have arrived and I'm being schedule for the week of October 4th - weather permitting.

    I have a 2017 Camaro that has less than 4000 miles. I have kept wax on it and have applied Adam's Detail Spray. I am hoping this Ceramic Spray will take it to the next level in shine. The car doesn't have scratches.
    What steps should I take using the Ceramic Spray?

    Shaffer1 reacted to Tightchevelle69 in 2023 Lincoln Aviator Perma Plate   
    So we just bought a 2023 Lincoln Aviator. It has the Perma Plate protection inside and out, supposedly. They also told me it was a “ceramic coating” which in my opinion was a lie because it only took them about 30 minutes to apply it. I believe it’s more of a paint sealant. My question would be what is it most comparable to and what would be best to wash/coat it with, or should I strip it back off, clay bar, polish and apply something else? Also, the back stays dirty. I went against everything I know and took it through a car wash because it was so filthy and didn’t have time for two bucket wash. By the time we got home it looked like it hadn’t even been washed! It was about 20 miles of city and highway from car wash to home.

    Shaffer1 reacted to Wolfeman in 2017 F-150 Raptor - new vehicle prep and polish   
    Worked on the whole truck today using the orange polish and orange foam pads.  I got the truck to about where I want it to be.  I am waiting on my mini to work some on the b-pillars that are soft and plan on taking the truck and having some type of clear bra put on there as they tend to scratch so easy.  After the polish, I had just enough time to put on some Adam's Paint Sealant before having to pick up my kids from school.  I'm very happy with my purchase and look forward to helping other friends and family members get their cars as near to perfection as possible.  I thought I would post some general pictures that I took of the truck after finishing today.

    Looks nice, what a difference it made! I used it on my 2015 Tahoe, the trim wasn't faded so I didn't notice much change in the color. However, I have noticed since applying the Trim Coating the rain and water just beads up and rolls right off. Highly recommend giving it a shot.

    Hey folks. I typically take all photos during my details. I decided to try something new, and record the whole thing. What are your guys' thoughts? Is it a good idea, anything you would change about the video?
     
     
    Video (about 4 minutes long):
     
    https://youtu.be/P4Syu9qv59E
     

     
    Process followed:
     
    I started by washing the tires first. I used Adams All Purpose Cleaner for the most part. I used a diluted solution since my tires were not bad (recently done).
     
    Once the tires were done I gave the car a rinse, then used a Foam Gun to give the car a nice bath using Adams Car Shampoo. I then rinse this off and put down a little more foam for some extra protection during the wash.
     
    Next, I used a two bucket wash on the vehicle. This was then rinsed off and I left the water on the car so I could use Adams Guard and Gloss. This is super easy to apply and leaves a crazy shine. I got rid of excess water in crevices using a Blaster Sidekick. Since Guard and Gloss was applied, the water flung off in captivating beads.
     
    Next, I used Adams Brilliant Glaze which is super easy to apply. Due to weather, I could take it off almost instantly.
     
    Next was Adams Buttery Wax. Like Brilliant Glaze, a pleasure to apply.
     
    Last step was Adams VRT on the tires.

    She is all ready to get dirty again

    Thank you to all of you who serve in emergency services and military roles. It really takes a special person to see and do some of the things required of you, and I know we all greatly appreciate it even though it goes largely unsaid.
