Dan, I have read portions of this thread here and there but I just took the time (3-4 evenings!) to read it from start to finish.
Needless to say, I am even more blown away by your passion for all this than I was before. That will be a nice one owner truck for someone to get when you upgrade. As others posted here in the past, I appreciate being able to reference you when trying to explain to my wife how I'm not as crazy as some people.

Am I the only one who is disturbed that Adams is selling an item made in China? Adams actually stopped offering the PC a while back because its country of origin changed to China for a time. Now their logo is even on this thing! Im sure the product will perform and be a seller for them but it's sort of a deal with the devil. One not so minor reason I am an Adam's customer is because they didnt do this sort of thing.

Made u the USA , Is a very powerful marketing tool. One that Adam has enjoyed for years and one that speaks to may people particularly to Americans .I don’t have a problem with companies selling Chinese goods, many do and it’s very often way to get a cheap knockoff version of the real thing. This is great for those that cannot afford the real McCoy because it gives them an opportunity to improve there polishing equipment from something like a Porter cable . The problem for me is that Adams sells his goods under the premise that he has a moral code ,one that doesn’t support products made in countries that don’t offer fair wages and safe working environments for their staff . If he wants to sell a polisher made in china don’t care . But imo he has to stop saying made in USA whenever possible because he has his name on the tool and chose where to have it built . I’m not saying ppl shouldn’t buy this tool or that it won’t improve people’s polishing experience ,all I’m saying is that going forward Adam should by rights change his marketing tactics , so he is not lying to his customers. Adams products are of high quality and I’m sure this new tool will be fine .he has also been quite transparent about where his stuff comes from which I respect for sure . I’m not going to stop using his stuff ,I like them as do many of his customers .

heres the thing I'm sure the issue isn't weather or not adams has a policy or not or that it's changed . It's that the the original policy that Adam had was a moral one based on the fact that in China they don't have proper safety regulations for their staff or pay them a fair wage which I understood and respected. I also uderstand that not everything can be made in the USA,some items are simply unavailable. There was never much grief given over the Flex because Germany takes care of their employees as does Italy.in the case of this new polisher it's adams own and he chose to make it in China my guess is for better profit margins . Which is fine a afterall he is here to make money. But in order to save face he has to stop saying made in USA whenever possible because clearly not the case here

Been there done that. My rig was never clean when I worked at the ready mix.

Congratulations! Glad to hear everything worked out ok!
 
Oh and awesome shirt

Careful with those green lights. There are usually hidden strings and clauses attached elsewhere in the contract that you are not privy to until it is time to exercise said clauses. 

Hi guys . Happy to report that I had a chance to try out the product . In a word ... perfect! This combo was exactly what I was looking for, the cleaner works very good and the conditioner smells great. It dries satin which is awesome cuz i dont like shine on my interior, also it's the first truly non greasy product I've used .The microfiber and applicator pads are totally premium and we're a joy to use . I had a great big grin while using my new kit . Thanks to adams for making my new favorite product I'm thrilled. More adams is Def in my future . Cheers

I was not impressed as well

I'd rather have dirty towels than a dirty windshield 

Anything below 80 is also considered "young" in Florida.

I would like to apologize to you all for misleading my PA to MT comment. I thought I put in my post that it was next day saver shipping (basicly red at ground price). I have been very busy and not stayed up on this thread and my comment (incorrect at that) has boiled everyone over so I am sorry.
 
Rich, feel free to jack one of my threads some time!

You mean people actually LIVE in Montana??  Of their own free will?  

Someone's getting paid by the mile.

Yes it has been airbrushed. It is called "real fire" flames. Multiple layers of airbrushing in different shades of colors, Did not want the basic flames so went all out. Finally found some high intensity, but small so I could hide them, led's to light it up. Here is some pics of the process and some changes that were made during the way. Originally I had just the horse done by it self but really wanted it to stand out so I had him add the flames around the existing script and horse. He retaped everything he previously did and airbrushed the flames around it and brightened up the Mustang script!! Amazing talent !! One of a kind,  said he would not do one again, more of a "one off" airbrush he said.

Jason, you rinse down with Patriot Wax or pressure washer?

I've done both...I can totally see why people use the bucket-o-towels method to be certain you are not contaminating your wash solution. This would be particularly beneficial if you planed to keep the leftover solution to use again. On the other hand what is the difference between a two bucket RW and a two bucket traditional wash? If you trust your rinse bucket to get the dirt out of your wash pad why not to get it out of your RW towels?

truth!
