if you have access to one, definetely try steam cleaning the steering wheel and shifter, would evaporate the smell

I have this same issue , but it only happens with the single soft towels for me. I ended up just throwing that one out after it kept doing it even after washing, it was brand new

i know I'm a little late to this but just wanted to share a writeup dan did on ceramic paint coating Q: Can Adam’s Paint Coating be used on smooth painted plastic?

A: Yes, you can use Paint Coating on smooth painted plastic like gloss black B and C-pillars on doors and so on. Follow the same prep and process as you do when applying to other painted surfaces.

Best practice is to use the least aggressive method, so try the FP, then move up to CP if needed. 

 

Will do, Thanks

New member here. Hey guys

If they're very minor it may work. Realistically the correcting polish is a better one step product. This will hold true in most cases with the exception of black vehicles. Black almost always requires a finishing polish aster correcting.

Awesome , thanks for the information . I'll stick with using correcting polish first

hey guys , I'm sure this question has been asked before but i can't find it. Is it Ok to use adams finishing polish as a 1 step for a car that has minor imperfections? Will it produce results or is it only good for following up on correcting polish? Sorry if this is a dumb question!

Nice job!

thank you!

​Looks great!

 

Excellent work!

Thanks! He's happy with it so I am too

Nice!! Po

Job well done! It looks fantastic!

 

I plan on doing the same (except I will probably have to step it up to the heavy correcting polish) for my dad's Toyota Tundra.  I owe him a paint correction I promised him after he saw how great my car came out.  I will also be using the Swirl Killer and can't wait.  

 

Again very nicely done!

 

Nice!! Post it up when you're done I'm curious to see how it will turn out. I've yet to use the heavy correcting compound as I haven't had a car to do that needs it. Love the swirl killer , I'm so eager to use it every chance I get

Thanks!!

Nice job on a nice ride!!

Dad gets a detail worth at least $500. Heck of a gift! And beautiful work. Your thoughts on the swirl killer?

it's amazing , great machine for a great price . Definitely a step up from the porter cable I was using. Very maneuverable and comfortable. It's has fantastic cutting power and seems to be pretty sturdy. If you're on the fence , get it!

Looks like it came out great!

 

Thank you ! Adams is the best company

Very nice

Thanks!

Nice work and a great gift!

Thank you!

Great job!  Glad to hear you liked the New Swirl Killer! 

 

In the first photo, the reflection of the overhead power lines threw me for a bit...was gonna say you missed a few scratches! 

 

Totally knew that was coming! Threw me off for a bit too when i was looking at the pictures. Lol

Sorry for the grammatical errors , correcting polish followed by finishing polish . Btw, this was all done with the new swirl killer

For one of my dads Christmas gifts I did a two step correction on his 2014 srt8. Correcting polish followed my finishing then brilliant glaze / LPS/ Americana. Happy with how it came out and he is too. Just thought I'd share, let me know what you guys think!

Isopropyl alcohol should work. I use a 50/50 with water and blue waffle towels.

 

Ah, should have thought of that. Thanks!

did a 1 step on my car and threw on some americana but now deciding i want to go ahead and do a second step. Car washing with the strip wash is not an option as my car is not running right now so its stuck in the garage, need something i can spray on and wipe off to strip off the americana as the car is inside of my garage. Any suggestions?
