  1. You can dilute 1:1 with Distilled water to use as a paint decon. I've done it before and it works great For maintenance washes on rims sometimes I also use it 1:1. If it's been a while, I'll grab my full strength bottle.
  2. Not sure how we got so far off-topic. The purpose of my post, and the Vid, was to demonstrate Adam's and how we all knew they were as a company, a brand, and the man himself Adam !
  3. I guess we're all allowed to have an opinion, however if you ever meet or speak with him, he's as down-to-earth as they come.
  4. This whole video is great. But starting at 11:30 is where Matt from Obsessed Garage gets a behind-the-scenes tour. Having met Matt personally, he's super genuine. And I'm learning that Adam is just the same. I knew Adam's was a special company, but hearing some of the back story, and how they're just trying to do better everyday, like most of us, makes me like them even more.

  5. Thanks for the feedback. Do you use it by hand or on a finishing pad on an orbital/rotary? Once I burn through some other polishes I was going to buy the complete Adam's system and give it a try.
  6. Just left it cleaned with Adam's Glass cleaner. I want to see in full sunlight if I can see a difference between the two sides, and see if the Polished side hazes slower.
  7. By way of shipping error I got a bottle of Revive Hand Polish, and wondered what I could use it for. After reading many posts about using Brilliant Glaze to get rid of that stubborn haze on interior windshield, I thought I'd give Revive a try. My car (2007 Nissan Altima) hazes over within about 2 weeks. Traditionally I just use Adam's Glass Cleaner and then it slowly creeps back. So I did 1/2 of my windshield today (passenger side). I'll report back, and include a pic in full sunlight in a few weeks. Thanks for reading....

    4/20 sale :)

    There is a mystery box on the site today. Perhaps it will have a special flavored mint inside every order?
  9. I find Tire & Rubber cleaner has a light Citrus smell to it, like Goo Gone, kind of. To calm down your neighbor, perhaps wash one of their cars for their struggles. Ha ha
  10. Reading between the lines....That's super generous and amazing customer service.
  11. Possibly a dumb question. I use the Blue shampoo, I'm new to Adam's so I know nothing different. What is better about the Red?
  12. Nice ride, and impressive collection of products!
  13. Please keep us posted. After I use up some other coatings I was going to try Adams. Nice Ride too BTW
  14. Yeah I'm shocked there aren't more !
  15. I was turned on to Adam's, thanks to "Obsessed Garage" on Youtube. The great Matt Moreman kept saying "I'm using Adam's ______". So a few hundred dollars later here I am. This winter has been pretty easy in Chicago, so I've been able to do a lot of proper washes. My setup is nothing fancy. Costco 1700psi 1.3 gpm pressure washer and a MTM SG 28. All quick connects, Adams foam cannon. Craftman gas leaf blower. Not pictured are Adams buckets, and wash pads. This setup works well to keep my cars nice I don't have a full product shot of my entire Adam's collection, but there isn't much that I don't have. So pics of our rides after some Adam's treatment Thanks for Looking
  16. I use a metal polish (don't have any Adams yet) then clean up the black residue with IPA then I put 2 coats of a sealant on it. Lately I've been using Ceramic Boost.
  17. I think Adam's Rinseless is one of the best, and I've tried them all. Nice looking car !! What ratio did you use for your pre-soak? I've been using 2oz to 14oz of water which some pretty good results. Smells fantastic too.
  18. Wheel cleaner and Tire/Rubber cleaner I wouldn't go past 1:1. This is a helpful thread on the topic too. http://www.adamsforums.com/topic/27546-pro-tip-dilution-ratios/page-5?hl=dilution&do=findComment&comment=498836
  19. Great review. I've tried nearly every brand of Rinseless out there. Adam's is one of my favorites !
  20. Try this vid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7dG0k0Aq-Q I'm a Rinseless fan, and have tried nearly every brand out there. Adam's is one of the best. Very slick, no streaks, and any dirty comes out of your wash media, while other brands tend to encapsulate that dirt into your towels/mitts, etc. In the winter I'll go to a Coin-Op and blow off the nasty, and then finish in my garage with Rinseless with some warm water. The method in the video is solid, and close to what I use. You can also look up the Garry Dean method. Just for the method, his rambling about his products is tiring. Quick tip - I mix my pre-soak with Distilled Water, regular water in the bucket. I'll use a full 32oz bottle as pre-soak. I've never had any issues with swirls or scratches.
  21. Thanks, it's a Malibu Flightcraft. We've had it for 5yrs, it's 22yrs old in total. I re-upholstered the seats when we first got it. Runs like new. It's a great way to spend time with the family.
