I have detailed my interior and used Leather and Interior cleaner on all interior plastic/rubber and followed up with Leather Conditioner. My question is now that it has been a few weeks, I am starting to see very light dusting, should I just go over the panels again with Leather conditioner or should I use Leather and Interior cleaner and then follow up with Leather conditioner? The panels are not dirty, just lightly dusted. I could also use a utility towel to knock the dust off, and then apply more Leather conditioner. Just trying to get the most out of my products here. Thanks.

haha, Tyler, I have 3 little ones, so I know your pain, but they are so funny. Not the most ideal place to leave a note, but none the less, I'm sure your significant other thought the world of it.

Wow, excellent end results!

I also recommend adding Teflon tape to the nozzle. This will help prevent leaking since you don't want to tighten it too tight.
Thanks Chris, great suggestion and I will do just that. I know I was tightening it too tight, so i will back the torque off a little and use teflon. Thanks for the help!

I'm sorry about the issues Keagan!
If the stainless quick connect is threaded onto the red spray nozzle too tight, it will not allow the foam gun barrel to insert easily and lock in place with a click. Try giving a 1/4 turn counter-clockwise to loosen it a tiny bit, connect the barrel, then tighten it back down onto the red spray nozzle. Or alternatively, with the quick-connect completely removed from the red spray nozzle like in your pictures, connect it to the barrel, and then carefully thread it back onto the sprayer.
If it's still giving problems after that, please send us an email to orders @ adamspolishes . com referencing the order number and we can help you out from there!
Thanks Dan, I will give that a try. Can you tell me the correct orientation of the two rubber seals inside the quick disconnect? I pulled them both out last night, and it appears one seal is supposed to fit inside the other seal, however the seals are the same size. I stacked them on top of each other and did as you suggested above and the connection was much easier to make. I want to run some water through it before I say its fixed though. I truly enjoy using the foam gun, as my truck/tahoe are both taller and it helps to reach the roof with as much soap as possible.

Same problem here. I thought I was just weak lol I was pushing that thing on for 10 minutes and gave up. Went back to the foam cannon
Lol. Mine is usable, and I use it every wash however it is starting to annoy me enough I thought I would ask about it on here. I removed the rubber seal inside, it is two seals. I am uncertain if they might have been in the incorrect orientation, as I put them stacked versus inside of one another and it is easier to push the canister on now, but it may leak water versus sealing. I will give it a go maybe tomorrow to see if this is a possible solution.

Has anybody had any issues with the premium foam gun adapter that screws on to the end of a red spray nozzle? Mine does not want to push on easily. It's almost like the rubber seal inside is too fat. It goes together but takes a little bit of effort. Any suggestions? It screws onto the nozzle fine, but the white canister with the long nozzle doesn't want to push on very easily.

Hola Devin. Go volunteers!

Report back. I completed my BG application and used a brand new bottle of BG, and a brand new sprayer head. I used roughly an 1/8th of the bottle as this was the first application on all 3 vehicles, over kill I know, however I wanted ensure I was moving enough liquid for the test! It went on extremely easy and came off just as easily. The verdict on spraying the BG: it sprayed extremely well, just as good as the detail spray. I made sure to shake it well before each vehicle as to suspend any of the heavier particles in the liquid. I had 0 clogging issues. Now should I remove the sprayer and force warm water through it to keep the glaze from solidifying in the sprayer head? I think I might as Adam states in the video he does the BG roughly two times per year so unless I detail more than I think I will. I will clean and store the head and replace the normal BG cap. I had a spare bottle on stand by if I experienced immediate clogging. Unless the clogging happens as the bottle nears the bottom of the barrel, I would say I had success in doing this.
The arsenal:
-
I will be doing three vehicles today using the BG, spraying it from the bottle if it doesn't clog. I will report back. I also have another sprayer I may try if the adams gets clogged quickly.
-
Thanks Andrew. I think I'll give it a try and see how it goes. Least that can happen is I toss the sprayer head and put the cap back on it.The answer to this question can be found in this thread:

Would diluting BG help in making it more sprayable yet still be an effective solution for the windshield haze?

Nice! Look at that mirror finish. I can see the trees plain as day. Some of the darker colors seem to make for the best finishes/reflections.

I have a kit on order. Super excited to use it. How long did it take to clean those pieces prior to applying the coating?

I am debating on getting the undercarriage spray. I want to know, does it cover axles and frame or just fender wells? How long does it last? Does rain wash it off?
-
I finally used my glass cleaner and glass sealant to seal all 3 of my family vehicles. Very impressed with both products!

Welcome to the addiction, Shawn!
One of my favorite Adam's videos is the winter prep, https://youtu.be/3laHYUYR1ds. Might give you some more ideas, if you haven't seen it already.

Thanks Chonke, I did receive a bottle of interior detailer in a MB a while back. I will give that a go, interior detailer and a utility towel.
