On smooth surfaces you can use a lubricant such as Detail Spray and a plastic razor blade for the spray foam. Just get enough of a gap to let the plastic razor blade slide under and then put the Detail Spray on on the surface and both sides of the plastic razor blade. The objective is to break the bond between the spray foam and surface and then you can pull it off in chunks. The one thing that I do know is that is a pain to get off, especially on rough surfaces.

The simple answer is Yes. My brother-in-law needed some help on the farm, which has free range chickens, so I went to Wisconsin for week. The main goal was to put new windows in the barn, he was fortunate enough to have his new tractor show up on Monday. I couldn't resist the opportunity to make it shine and protect it with Adam's. There are so many parts to try and get into that I was noticing places that I missed for a couple of days. It will be interesting see how it looks after a year of usage and the WI winter. I also found out that some of the chickens approve of the wife's Terrain, either looking at themselves in the shine or using it as shade.

Hi Dan, I do prefer the GCS3 on the Graphene coated vehicles and especially on the garage queen. I have also found that I generally use less GCS3 than CS3 per vehicle or at least it sure seems that I don't need to spray as much to do the same surface area. Again, this is comparing Graphene coated vehicles where GCS3 is used to non-graphene vehicles were CS3 is used.

Thanks Chris, I didn't want to mention another brand until I was sure that Adam's no longer had it. I have the 50' Zero G from Lowes and it works perfect for me.

I was pretty sure that I had saw the collapsible hose on the site not to long ago and could not find it either. The collapsible bucket is still available along with the collapsible bucket is still available along with the foldable cart. @falcaineer Do you know if the hose has been discontinued?

Boy wonder

Hi Dan, I am still a fan of Waterless wash even after CS3 was perfected. The volume of Waterless Wash that I use has gone way down to the point that I only get individual bottles instead of the gallon. The thing that I've found Waterless Wash to be exceptional for are the bugs and birds just like you have found. A short spray of WW on the offending item, lets it sit for a minute and then wipe it off with a disposable shop towel. This is really helpful when you get in late and can't get to the vehicle in until the morning. Springtime runs to Florida with the Love Bugs will sometimes even result in a stop at a rest area to get them cleaned off with WW, which is why I put in my travel kit.

Hi Travis, If the product has been keep sealed and in a climate controlled area, then it should be fine. I have had some was sealed and climate controlled for almost that long and it worked without any problems. The flip side is that over the two years there has been some very good advancements in the Graphene line, so if this is a new Mustang GT and the first coating, I'd lean toward a new bottle of the Advanced and know that I was putting the top of the line on it.

Let me see if I can help you by telling you why I went all in on Adam's products in 2018 after using various products from a multitude of vendors for 30 years before that. I am not going to name the products or vendors I switched from, but will tell you that the vast majority were good products and some were very good. Throughout my car care years, I also tried some that were poor, a few of which are no longer around. When I started with Adam's, I was after a few specific items and the one thing that stood out immediately was how well the Adam's products worked together. There was no longer a question of whether the Shampoo from vendor A worked well with the paint protection from vendor B. Any product that came from Adam's worked well with other products from Adam's, so there was no doubt in my mind that Adam's not only had good chemical engineering, they also had extensive testing. In the last couple of years there has become two product lines, Ceramic and non-ceramic, so that is a decision on which path to choose. I maintain so many vehicles that I have a stock of both so I can use whichever is best for the vehicle or owner. Each person has a difference goal for their vehicle and once you determine your goal and effort you want to put forth, then you can determine the best product line and which of those products you want to use.

Based on your description of keeping it simple and being able to skip a week or so, sounds like it would be a good candidate for a Adam's Foam Gun and Adam's Wash & Wax. Not only does Wash & Wax work well with the Foam Gun it adds protection that will give you a week or two without needing to do anything extra. There is one other thing that really makes White vehicles look good and that is Adam's H20 Guard & Gloss. This is a bit of a different product where you need to do a good wash with my preference of Adam's Ultra Foam if using a Foam Gun. Then you apply the H20 Guard & Gloss. This will not need to be repeated for a month to 6 weeks and you'll just need to do a basic wash every week or so to keep it looking good.

The car looks great. For the garage queen, I go between 2 and 4 months based on how often it goes out. Before the Graphene CS3 was available, I was doing every other month, but have found that Graphene CS3 keeps the vehicle looking good a bit longer. I usually hit the vehicle every week or two with Graphene Detail Spray and about once a month with Graphene CS3. If we're going out, then it usually just needs a quick dust off with Graphene Detail Spray and is ready for the public.

I agree with Steve on this one, I'm sure glad that I have a few bottles of the traditional Leather Conditioner. I tried the spray and can rate it as good, but not at the same level of the original. In particular I find that the original is easier to use to get a neglected vehicle, seats and dash, back into a uniform condition using the original on Adam's Premium Dressing Applicators.

Hi Jack, Whether I'm in South Carolina or in Florida during the warm and humid season, I use two or three towels according to the size of the vehicle. I also found that if I have the vehicle in the garage or in the shade then I'm good up until mid morning. What seems to matter the most if the temperature of the body panels. I also pay more attention to the heat index as the combination of high heat and high humidity causes more issues than just one side. When the heat index gets to be more than 15 degrees above the ambient temp, it is time to put the Graphene and Ceramic products away to prevent excessive time dealing with steaking or spotting.

I had the same problem for a while and found that if I always ensured that the sprayers were set to the Off position it eliminated 90% of the problem. There were also some sprayers sent out during the supply problems that were below the normal Adam's quality level and I have since eliminated them. If you have of the ones that easily swivel and just feel unstable, then if you get large changes in barometric pressure. In addition, I've found a couple bottles need to be kept in a climate controlled area to completely eliminate the dripping, Tire Shine is at the top of the list, followed by Spray Wax.
