It was announced on our new yesterday that one is from the county I live in (really next community over from the community I live in).

Why not just use the 12 pictures that won the contest in the last year? That would definitely make a great Adam's calendar!

 

That is an idea. Also, in the corners to make the calendar fit a page put small pictures of the cars that did not win.

Nice pics of you vacation you had Rich. I would not mind having the rental car you had (perfect daily driver size). I have talked about going to Germany for few years (and taking my parents with me).

 

Fantastic pics Rich. And even more special cause you did it with your dad. Thanks for sharing bud.

 

I Agree with you on that statement. I made a trip just with my father this summer.

John cool on the light mod. I agree with you on mods for a vehicle. It depends on the vehicle.

Wheel repair is now a science, and totally do-able. Here is a listing:

Also, Ebay frequently has OEM wheels show up, as people buy new wheels for their new cars.

 

At any rate, shouldn't be too tough or expensive to repair or replace. . . .

 

Keep us posted!

I agree with Adam you might find a new rim on ebay or one that does not have many miles. You would not believe how many I found for my truck so that I could have a second set.

I have used the car wash in the past when I did not have enough time in my schedule to wash my daily driver. The only thing I have to remember is remove the antenna.

 

If they had not used the waterblade on the car.

 

Since I stated using Adam's products my daily driver has not even been to the car wash.

 

My truck has always been hand washed by yours truly.

I agree with you and your insurance will call it a road hazard. I have only one of those happen to me. I had Safelite Auto Glass replace the windshield instead of trying to repair it.

I just noticed the price.

 

With the larger rims remember you may have to have those low profile tires (that is what I call them). Remember they can bend easy unless the roads your driving is very smooth. I have seen several end up with damaged rims.

Looks like the silver colors turns out nice with Adam's on it. Also, that is a very nice Mercedes.

I received my three new detail sponges today. I am impressed how easy to use. I used them to detail the hood of a car. I used my detail spray along with the correct product per sponge. I will use them more this week. I did not get to make any pictures (too dark).

 

A little goes a long way. I noticed the more I use Adam's products I use less, on my second detail job I used half what I did with the first detail job.

That is a great idea, then they can get what they want. I have received mostly gift cards for being in weddings (groomsman, music, etc).

I'm heading to Charlotte for the Sat. night race, gonna be around 40 degrees with rain & wind, aahahahhh!

 

Lowe's Motor Speedway (Charlotte) is a nice track. I guess my favorite track is Bristol Motor Speedway (Bristol). Hopefully the weather will cooperate.

An Early Happy Birthday to you Adam.

:party:

I agree with everyone above. The products do not like the extreme cold or heat. I have moved mine to the basement where it will stay around 60 - 65 degrees this winter.

Nice choice you made since you gave up the viper.

Thanks to Adam. My order with them was shipped this afternoon. I can not wait to try them as soon as they arrive.

While I was doing a clay job on the next vehicle that I need to complete. I noticed that the detail spray was turning black in color (of course the clay). It was dark outside and the weather forecast is rain until first of the week. So I thought why not use a microfiber and the waterless wash. It removed the black colored detail spray. I thought it would help until I could get some nice weather to actually wash. I did not remember someone posting about using it after they clay bar a vehicle.

Shane, That would give you more reason to use more Adam's products to keep the truck looking clean. How much smaller would you like the pic?

I see the sponges are now available in a kit.

Why not sale just the sponges in a kit to themselves for us that already have everything that is in the kit above.

You might have to do another (or a couple more) applications of SHR.

 

I agree with Shane. It took me some time and several passes with the PC. I used the SHR with the ORANGE pad not the yellow pad. I spent 12 hours doing my whole daily driver. You will find below a link to the post with my before (waterspots) and after (no waterspots).

The car could have 120,000 miles on those plugs and wires, either way they look good (hard to tell sometimes about color with a picture than seeing them in person).

 

I always put a dab of anti-seize on my plugs threads and then use di-electric grease on the connections.

 

I do the same thing and have never had any problems with removing the plugs or plug wires. Especially if you ever have to remove them again.

Rich, I am glad that I am not the only one that has to wipe/spread after spraying. Thanks for the tip on what you use.

I discovered today that you can use them to smooth out the Undercarriage Spray if it does not look good. So mine will be used with my Undercarriage Spray.

I took this picture yesterday afternoon standing on my patio. I think we will have peak color this week.
