I actually think the glass sealant does a bit better of a job with the windows, but the CB looks to do a good job as well, curious on longevity on the glass. 

 

There is also to me at least nothing more satisfying than driving in the rain and watching it just blow off the windshield. While everyone else slows down because they cant see you get almost perfect vision. 

So true. I love the glass sealant. Works like magic. It is such a wonderful product. And a lot goes a long way as well

The link isn't working for me, but if it's the orange Sidekick, it was a seasonal item in Fall 2016. I have one...frankly, think I got the last one left in stock (showed sold out after i got it)...and love it!

I saw the orange one on ebay.. was debating it but since i already have one ill probably pass. Wish they made more. Would be cool 

I did this yesterday but still, the coolest car I have ever seen in my life. also most expensive... Here in Highlands ranch at  the Mike ward McLaren Dealership they had a McLaren Senna delivered to them. One of their customers from Wisconsin traded in a GT2RS and purple 720S. This thing was absolutely incredible. The paint job was $100,000 reason being that there are Diamonds in the Paint... So i took my camera and went to shoot some photos of it. Pretty cool.

I should've added that...they did at least make it right with a refund and even free replacement to cover it...a rock toupe, of sorts! ?. Still had to rent a truck to haul it and spend the extra time. Now, I've found I don't have quite enough to cover it completely so will head back soon, though buckets will probably do it, not truck loads.

Well, thats good! I am glad!

Welcome Ross!

I shoveled, lugged and spread about 2 tons of 3/4-1.5" rock. To make matters worse, it was a duplication of effort because the rock company sold me the wrong color the first go round. Took a sample and everything. It wasn't noticeable because the rock was dusty. Well, when water hit it, it was obvious. I was not a happy camper.

Oh no!! are you getting a refund or are they going to swap out the rock?

Thanks. I missed this post. As for the clear bra, it’s hard to say without knowing what brand of film it is and if it’s self healing. The popular films today are self healing and that process is done with some heat from a heat gun. 

 

You can try to do a fine polish on it with medium speed to see if that clears it up, or even start with Revive hand polish. Worst case scenario you pull the film and go from there. If the film is scratched, it’s done it’s job and protected your paint from what would have been coming your way. You can remove it and polish it out then have new film applied. Or leave it. 

 

If you pull it and want to attempt film yourself, we can cut and sell the kits. In full disclosure though, PPF is not quite so simple to work with. It can be rather frustrating. Just an offer. 

Okay thanks! ill have to let you know!

After 50 years...........who'd listen to me?  The young ones would be picking out a nursing home instead of folding towels, and then driving my Corvette and spending all my millions!

I laughed too hard at this??

Looking forward to the after pics. Hopefully in the daylight!  ?

I will let you guys know how it goes once i clean it! it might be next weekend. I think my mom found like 5 rock.  chips after we left the dealer in the front windshield, so she is having it replaced on Monday thankfully for free. It has a clear bra on it and it is pretty scratched. Any ideas on how to fix it? I have seen people pour water out of a pot which Im assuming has been boiling for some time or a hair dryer? I feel like a hair dryer wont be enough heat.

My mom just got this 2016 Honda Pilot on Monday. I am going to do a full paint correction and wax, just thought I would share the Before pictures and hopefully I will be able to do the after pictures this weekend! Paint seems to be in OK condition. Can’t wait to adamize it ? (sorry for the bad pictures) I will get more tonight

What are y'all using to thoroughly clean your Nav/Touchscreens ? It seems everything I try, I cannot seem to get completely rid of the finger prints in the highly used areas, like the favorite channel buttons along the bottom or the phone disconnect button on my wife's touchscreen.

I use glass cleaner to clean the screen. For buttons if it is physical buttons I will spray it with APC and use a tooth brush and really scrub. Takes all the grease and grime off them. Did it to my moms car as they were looking shiny and bright when it is supposed to be a matte color black. Looks 10x better.

That looks removable to me - some Correcting Polish and orange pads should make that look fine.

I agree with Michael

It is a 2017 GTI. I should be doing the entire car this upcoming Sunday provided the weather is decent. He has some light scratches all over the car as well as scuffs from whoever did the debadging. A one step polish, sealant and glaze he should be good to go! 

Awesome! i would love to see some more pictures of the car!!

Ian this is sweet!! What kind of car?

As everyone knows, this is a tried and true product throughout the detailing community. I put it up against an acid based wheel cleaner and it did very well! I would say they had equal cleaning abilities. The acid based was ready to aggitate immediately while the Adam’s I waited until the color change was done. BUT, the Adam’s had more lubrication while scrubbing. Here’s a nice bleeding picture as well as a dramatic before and after ?

 

The tires were dressed with tire shine.
