Pumpkin Spice products are live - along with a nice 15% off Fall sale! 

Just locked in my order.  Grabbed quite a list of things that were waiting in my cart along with the Pumpkin Spice Detail Spray.   Paid the extra $8 for expedited shipping.  I should have everything by the weekend.

Pumpkin Spice products are live - along with a nice 15% off Fall sale! 

Here are the after pics.  One disclaimer, I hadn't finished the wheels yet or the grill.  Also, on a side note the Fedex lady must have known I was gonna be washing the truck today.  Right before I started she dropped off my Adam's sidekick blaster.
 
Many thanks to everyone for your input on my first wash of the new truck!

Well, after about 5 hours or so I finished my first wash, clay, and H20 GG.  I've used Adam's products for a good number of years but this was my first time with the foam cannon, visco clay, and H2O GG.  I am happy to report that I'm VERY happy with how things turned out and the ease at which the products worked, then again, Adam's products have always worked great for me!!!  The truck only has 200 miles on it so the before and after pics won't be shocking since it was somewhat clean to begin with.  In person though, it's a whole different ball game.  Knowing what it looked like before washing and everything else to how it looks now..........AMAZING!!!!  The paint looks like you could swim in it.  I can't imagine what this thing will look like after a correction and ceramic coating!
 
Dan@Adam's,  I actually did exactly the method you mentioned.  Once I was done washing the truck I pulled it into my garage and didn't even dry it.  I used detail spray and set out to the claying process.  It took me a little longer than most probably but this was my first time and I wanted to do things thoroughly.  The process worked great!  After the clay I rolled her back outside and washed her again.  This time I finished with the H2O GG, I was in the direct sun while doing this but a light elbow grease is all that was needed to get the product on and off in a timely manner.  The H2O GG works just like the video depicts!
 
Anyway, here are some before pics of the truck.  Again, it was fairly clean to begin with.

Damn that H20 G&G continues to impress me.  Here is a friends Q5 that lives outside.  It is a lease and he treats it as such.  I detailed it a few months ago - that's probably the last time it was touched.  This weekend we detailed the interior and exterior and ended with a wet car and H20 G&G.  Amazing how much life it breathed into this paint.

Finally got some time to polish the wife's 2011 Avalanche... now to find time to put trim coating on the plastic...

Walked out of work today and enjoyed this H2O G&G view!  
 
 

Hi, Rod - and !  As you're already finding out, this site is a great resource (as are all of the product videos on the website & YouTube - be sure to check those out too!).  Happy Detailing!
 
 
 
 
A sales event is a very legitimate reason to temporarily suspend normal purchasing constraints - I fully concur.  Unfortunately, in my own case, I enjoy purchasing both Adam's AND designer bags - and there always seems to be a sale!     LOL.

Don't have to explain just look at this shine

Just laid down the butter wax on this hood, need to work around letters a bit.

Welcome! It always makes everything easier if the Wife/Significant Other is on-board. Although I find it pretty easy to justify when she comes home with a Michael Kors bag and tells me that it was "on sale". I can simply remind her that I bought my Adam's products "on sale". Again, Welcome to the Adam's Addiction Network!

Wanted to post up a detail I did on this beautiful 2011Porsche GT3 RS this week. As with,most, it had some issues, but the pain was the clear 3M bra that covers the hood, front quarters, lower rear quarters, small panel on roof ! Although great for the customer since it protects the paint, what a pain to try to make perfect because the 3M film retains small scratches. Products used were all Adams ! Strip wash, clay, 2 step paint correction with Flex 3401, coat of Brilliant Glaze, coat of Americana, leather cleaner and conditioner, Total interior detailer, deep wheel cleaner, VRT. Now if he just would leave me the keys for a day !!
 
 

I agree with everyone regarding the overkill, but I have a ton of it and i like how it foams so i use it every wash lol

I hope anybody here on AF that lives in this region or has family/friends there has either evacuated or live on high ground. I've attached some pics showing ship activity off the coast right now. I have been to Corpus Christi many times and I have never seen the bay and anchorage cleared out like this. You can even see the ships under power and lined up heading out of Galveston. All my buddies down there on drill ships even abandoned their wells to head east. If anybody here is affected please recognize the severity of these storms. I had good friends and fellow graduates go down aboard the container ship El Faro over a year ago now in a hurricane off the coast of Puerto Rico. So to anyone in the affected area, good luck, stay safe, and God bless.
 

My solution for bird poop with cocoa pebbles in it is to take a junk MF towel get it soaking wet and set it on the mess. Let it sit for several minutes. Then gently lift up MF towel. For the remaining mess I then rinse it off with a good stream of Detail Spray or Rinseless Wash. Clean up remainder with MF towel and Detail Spray then go eat some chicken wings for revenge.

Wow, I have to say Adams, you guys really knocked your products out of the park. With all the products I have used so far (H2OG&G, VRT, Interior detail spray, and the piña colada scented detail spray) I am completely impressed with the way it works, and with how great everything smells! I love working with something that doesn't smell nasty and doesn't work as well as it is hyped. That is not the case with these products! I can't wait to get my hands on more to add to my detailing arsenal. Here are some pics of the vehicles I did this weekend. I did my truck, my wife's Kia, and my moms Subaru. Everyone is so happy with how they look! Thanks again Adams!!
 

 

 

Hey everyone, I'm excited to join Adams forums and product lineup! Just started detailing a few months ago and recently switched over to Adams from Chemical Guys products. 
 
 

I got organaized. New storage unit just for detailing ????

That's the project for later this week!
 
But without boring everyone too much, here's a few pics from the fruits of todays labor.

Knowing it was going to rain today, I still washed and applied h20 G&G to the car on saturday just to get some pics of the new wheels and tires I got friday. Loving my new setup. Here a few pics.

Helped my cousin out shining up his toys!

My wife washed and applied G&G to her Fiesta today. I'm so proud
