just restarted my computer too, I'll give it a try. Thanks my friend.

Here's my first atempt at a YouTube video with some some iMovie editing. I am trying to get some use out of the camera equipment I have had lying around. I'd like to get good at it

Welcome! Sweet ride.

Welcome my friend.

Dude. If your feet smell like Deep Wheel Cleaner you need to see a doctor.

Adam's Foam Cannon with 2oz of his Car Shampoo connected to a:
Troy Built 7.75 gross ft lbs of torque 175cc Briggs & Stratton pumping 2700 Max PSI at a Max 2.3 GPM, softened water was used. Car is final rinsed with RO filtered water.

 

 

 

 

My two garage queens sometimes have to go outside for a day or two when my shop is full of customer cars, so here's what I do for them.
 
Foam gun, rinse, pull inside, air dry with compressor (or equivalent) and then dry with detail spray.  
 
If I have any doubts whatsoever about the amount of dirt or if it has rained at all, then out come the buckets and wash mit.  If your desert dust is very fine, then I would use Rinseless/Waterless in a pressurized sprayer and use multiple waffle weaves to wipe/dry it off.

Still an Adams newbie but she filled out nicely with clean and polish products with just testing the space. Someday I will be able to afford a full Adams transition...maybe.
 

You definetly need to remove the first product you applied for swirl removal BEFORE you go onto the next step !! I still use the old green Sever Swirl Remover from Adams for cars that are REALLY bad, then go onto the orange and white correcting polishes to finsh. There is no way those swirls came from just using clean towels etc. Sounds like you take good care of your stuff, had to be something other than good products to make those scratches.Here are a some before and after pics on some black paint I have corrected for customers with a machine. You pay the plane flight, I will pack my bags with my Adams stuff and remove those scratches and detail your car for free !!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         

It was raining the day I bought it...and the next weekend as well. But you better believe I busted-out the Adams gear and washed it asap.

Congrats my friend! Looks awesome:)

I've made a couple of orders over the last few weeks, and the last order that came it was something different. I called and asked about it and the rep said that they sent the item I got in place of the other item because it was not in stock. But from the time they mailed it until the time I called they had received the original item I ordered. And without any questions asked they said they would mail the item and to keep the one I had, I had the item at my door step in 3 days! Awesome customer service and thanks again for taking care of me. This is why I love Adams products:) customer for life!

Outstanding work my friend!

I took on a huge project for me in my wife's GMC 2014 Denali. I am slowly adding to my Adam's products which will eventually replace all of my Zaino products. Today's detail I used my new Griot's Garage orbital machine with 4" Adam's foam pads. After washing with Dawn I checked for oxidation and did not need to clay. So I started with Adam's Finishing Polish. I liked the ease that it went on with my GG machine, but even more impressed with the ease of buffing it off. I used 1 white pad, but used the Adam's brush to clean it periodically. Next I applied the Adam's Liquid Paint Sealant. Coming from a long time Zaino user I was very impressed with the ease of removing with my buffing towel, but I was actually even more surprised with the quick cure time and the resulting wet shine and slickness. I have some Brillant Glaze, but decided not to use it. I did use the Liquid Paint Sealant on the chrome 20" wheels as I am still waiting on my Quick Sealant to arrive.
After today's detailing I was able to compare Zaino's to Adam's and I have to say Adam's has the better product line. I like the idea of correcting defects rather than just concealing them and especially not having to add a quick cure additive to achieve what already comes out of the bottle from Adam's.

Bump! I took these two photos of my GS a few weeks ago, when I was leaving work for the evening.  Patriot Wax saying "Rain Drops Be Gone!"
 

 

I'm reviving this thread to add my pics of the G8 GT wearing it's winter coating of Adam's Quik Sealant x 2.
Outside temp was 33*F so some of the beads were frozen.
 
Winter is coming.

Quick Sealant should be VOC free so you don't have to wear a mask, but use good judgement and don't huff the fumes lol!

Not required, but spray it on the applicator, then wipe it on the wheels for better coverage.

I hear that, last weekend I went through an entire can at one time, wheels, trim, all plastics, painted bed cover, tow hooks, hitch receiver...had to open the garage door to let all the fumes out, so I bought a new half-mask painting respirator for next time, figured $21 was worth the cost of saving a few brain cells.

QS is awesome, it just makes me cough a lot.  It's so nice for everything I'm too lazy to seal normally or can't get to easily.

You won't even see it on your tires.  I use the QS on the wheels first and then put Tire Shine on the tires second.  That way, the Tire Shine overspray is easy to wipe off the wheel and also won't interfere with the bond of the QS.
 
I also tried some QS on my black powder-coated bed cover to see if it makes it easier to keep clean.
