Mariner

Not today specifically, but us in the engine department did a full piston swap on one of the main engine's cylinders this week. Check out the size of this thing! The liner is 622mm in diameter.. yes thats me inside taking measurements lol. Second pic is the 1st and 2nd swinging the exhaust valve and head off to the side. Luckily that was low running hours so we didn't need to do anything with that. Took us 2 days to do this job from beginning to end.

I don't understand what their is for them to "consider" about selling it in gallon sizes.  The product itself already exists.  The gallon size containers already exist.  Put the existing product into the existing container and charge people money for it 

I have been on this forum from the beginning and have always felt honored to be asked to be a moderator and help keep the forum running.  It's been a long time, many years.  
So with this being my 15,000th post, it's one of two things.  I'm either good at being a moderator..............or I got old!!  My money's on the last one.  

Haha the only time I’ve ever heard “BOGO” is at my local bar for buy one get one free beer nights ?

Maybe the hipsters bought up all the bottles to get still shots of them next to their full Untamed bottles and the sneakers they never wear?? ??? 
 
Adams makes their own chemicals. With popular demand they’d be wise to bring it back so us weekend warriors can pick some up. Pretty sad when the detail spray is so limited that even most forum members get stiffed.

I know I said no more but no one said anything about Mango. Guess I will be placing an order for some detail spray because my Mexican self can't help but want some lol.

Oh don’t you worry, I didn’t buy it ?

Yeah, I'm sure the guys from Zubaz and JNCO thought their brands were gonna be around forever, too ?
 
Someone above pointed out that gallons of Odor Neutralizer still aren't available. That's an existing product that just needs to be put into a larger container than usual, and isn't available because of reasons? But they have all the time in the world to formulate different scents and colors for asinine "colabs"?

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. It is unfortunate to see that Adams is turning into a company purely after the fads and profits. It absolutely is lame like Mariner said and Marty is exactly right, this is why I left Adams minus 1 or 2 products, for a company who isn’t just following the new hype and trying to make a clean profit. 
 
I know I sound like a broken record, but I’ve been asking along with many other forum member for Gallons of ON for those of us who use a lot of it. To this day NOTHING but claims of it being worked on and tabled to make happen. Yet all these colabs seem to just “roll off the tongue” in how easy they are to make happen. Just saying Adams is no where near the company it was when it won my interest, not even close.

Let us know how it works, and if you are fulfilled by the "untamed" scent

Except those "new consumers" are only here so their obscure clothing brand matches their even more obscure car detailing supplies, and they'll be outta here the minute it's time to move on to the next fad. Then you're left with a bunch of long-time, repeat customers you alienated to make a handful of extra sales to some clowns in ugly sweatshirts and skinny jeans.....

I’ll just say what everyone is thinking. This limited release crap with obscure companies nobody cares about is so lame.

I see it now---all the marketing prior to release had three bottles with different colored labels which didn't identify what they were.   now, the page listing identifies these are the same products with an "untamed scent."   So, they're for people that buy something for a scent.
 
Much like chemical guys, garry dean, and some others, it seems like a good way to confuse your simple and straightforward product line.   I recall what I'll refer to as the "adam's philosophy" of products explained at a clinic at the old location--one product to do one thing.  very little overlap.  a simple name for the product so you could pick it up and understand what it is for.   "untamed" appears to not be in this vein.
 
"untamed" seems stupid.   But then what do I know?  
 
 
 

The labels don't say what the product does because it doesn't matter, it will never get used. It's just so people can post pictures of it on Instagram. 

So some guy that works at adam's in the marketing department sells clothes, but on the side and in some unknown interval, markets detailing products, which are then sold through a competitor's site (adam's)?  
 
and these detailing products (which apparently don't even have names), who only a few people have heard of, (because I assure you they are not on any forum or FB group anywhere) sell out in minutes?  

Second wash after coating the wife’s Camaro. Dang, doesn’t that blue pop!
 

Yet people still buy them...

For anyone that misses the actual release, no worries. People will be reselling on eBay for 500% profit before the day is over ??
