Welcome to the addiction! Happy to hear you like the WW; it's pretty awesome. As you pointed out, you won't get the shine you might expect. That's because it doesn't have gloss-creating additives. While it's another step, using DS after would give you that shine since it has some carnuba. Another product you should check out is Rinseless Wash. For me, that does seem to leave behind some shine, and it can be diluted 16:1 to creat a Waterless Wash-like solution at a cheaper price point. It doesn't smell as great, though (berry), in my opinion, but you'll get a lot of uses out it. The Leather Conditioner is really great stuff. Not only does it clean and condition, it adds SPF 65, no oily residue, and makes the car smell and look new. If you were referring to the Leather and Interior Cleaner, that works really well, too, and should be followed by the LC since it's a pretty strong cleaner.

Adam's does have a Fabric Protector that I assume would also work on carpet. It's not on their website, though, and needs to be bought through distributors. Someone on here may have a lead for ya.

New to the Adams family (no pun intended)

Welcome to the addiction, Logan! Be prepped for many more purchases...but also an incredible shine! -
Welcome to the addiction, Chris! Thankfully this is one the urinalysis won't care about! I assume Air Force? Offutt? I'm at the USAF Academy.

Foaming Your Engine Bay??

Here are some videos and a forum article. Don't know that I'd foam it, either, for what it's worth. -
Unbeatable Customer Service

@Emery@Adams is known to go way above and beyond. Great guy! And certainly focused on putting the customer first. -
Welcome, Jayson!

Funny thing is I'm in CO, but my parents are back in WV. They have Tim Hortons there and my family goes multiple times...yes, more than once or even twice...a day. The entire staff knows their cars, voices and orders.

Welcome, Ray! Great to have you here and along for the shine!

Brilliant Glaze then Paint Sealant
falcaineer replied to rseward's question in Exterior Protection & Enhancement
Since my name is Chris, too, I'll jump in to add my two cents!? BG has filler properties for minor imperfections, and by adding it first will provide that benefit as well as added shine. PS bonds best to bare paint, but as you can see above and elsewhere on here, some prefer to add BG first anyway. Yes, by doing so, the PS essentially locks in that shine. PS is much more durable than the BG. We're talking months and months vs. a week or two, at best. Recommend you check out this article for a little more: Basically, while I'm in the PS-first group, it seems to come down fo personal preference. Maybe you could try both ways and see which you prefer ...even side by side. -
Time Lapse of Ceramic Install

Cool way to watch the process and shine come alive. Thanks for posting @shane@detailedreflections! -
Ceramic Paste Wax

The Premium one should be a "bit" easier to find, so I'll keep an eye out. I'll also take random shots as I did before in the hopes of catching yours and others.

Sorry, no. Haven't been up there in a few weeks. Hoping to make it up there again soon. So I can look for it (no promises I'll find it!), what kind did you send?

The "Don't Do's of Detailing" Thread
falcaineer replied to falcaineer's topic in Detailing Write-Ups
This is a preemptive "don't do," but it just hit me. Wheel Cleaner and Odor Neutralizer are similar in color. But definitely NOT smell. Don't confuse the two on your vehicle's interior!- 151 replies

First Wax Job, need some advice
falcaineer replied to BlackCadi14's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
DS has carnuba and so adds another layer vs removing anything. The FP may remove some, but it's not all that strong and may still leave sealant behind. I still recommend you strip wash it completely, then reapply the PS. Are you applying indoors or out?
