Amiguel6 got a reaction from Rich in Anyone here used Sizzle?
He is saying that Sezzle is interest-free, as where his credit card charges interest on unpaid balances.

I believe its a cheaper style rebranded foam cannon. Also, they do not make the PF22. That one is made by MTM Hydro. Adam's just carries them on their site. I have the MTM Hydro personally and its the most well-built cannon I've ever used. I've tried maybe 3-4 cannons/guns before making the jump to the PF22. You won't regret it!

Amiguel6 reacted to enoch7fa in Ceramic glass coating messed up my window!!!
yo everyone! I did call adams and talked to one of the guys, cant remember his name. when I asked was he aware of my post he actually said yes, I was surprised even though I was trying to get some attention to this problem. I am not here to just bash adams on this I was just so disappointed cause I wanted this to work good and I also do not want anyone else to go through a bad product or a application process that needs to be better. anyway, we talk about it and instead of telling me about remedies that may or may not work he said there has been a lot of serious discussions on application and they are going more than likely update the video and instructions on the ceramic glass sealant. I do not want to say here what they are going to change bout the application because they are still discussing it. I just urged him to let them know to do it quick so others do not go through this since right not it is not a easy fix, my glass is still messed up. so thanks adams for listening and I await what you officially have to say on this subject. until then I will not use this product on my cars or customers.

no real update yet. I am waiting to see any advice adams can give me. starting to think I am being ignored. every so often go grab a towel and go out side and rub on a spot on my wife's windshield in one spot for about 5 or 6 minutes to get the ceramic glass sealant off. I have come to realize even if I get all the high spots off the glass is still very foggy. the only thing I can do now is get some good glass polish grab my DA and do some glass polishing. really let down by this and I see no announcement from adam about this issue I see other having. not feeling real good about adams right now if they dont start warning people and pulling this product until it is improved they are just hopping to take peoples money. sorry but that is how I see it.

Amiguel6 reacted to Castus Car Care in 2019 Trunk or Treat Charity event
Here are the results and some pics of the charity event. We ended up getting about $2k dollars donated to the Women's shelter. Had a ton of interest in the products form our booth as well, got to meet some great people and had a blast! Can't wait till it warms up to do more events

Amiguel6 reacted to Dan@Adams in Ceramic coating and spray coating question
Using Ceramic Spray Coating to aid in wiping off our Paint or Wheel Coating won't really add much more protection in that particular aspect, since you're just spraying a bit to make the flashed coating easier to wipe off (much like you can use Detail Spray to aid in removing Buttery Wax residue that may have hazed up a little too long); however, applying Ceramic Spray Coating after Paint or Wheel Coating have cured would add a little extra protection on top of the coating to help it to not wear down as fast, much like Ceramic Boost and Ceramic Paste/Liquid Wax do as well.
For everyone else wondering about the video, here's a direct link to it! It's a very informative 10-minute video of our chemist Chris and Joe our Creative Director having a discussion on the process and science behind ceramic coatings, and specifically our Ceramic Spray Coating:

Well I never. THANKS @GXPaycheck and @Amiguel6 for bringing this to my attention. You guys ROCK!!

Amiguel6 got a reaction from bjoeaull in Ceramic coating and spray coating question
I apologize as I didn't fully understand your question. For Ceramic Coating, you CAN use Ceramic Spray Coating as a removal aid. For Ceramic Spray Coating, you DON'T want to use more Ceramic Spray Coating as a removal aid.

Went on a road trip to the mountains of NC...car was trashed after almost 900 miles! Thank goodness for my Adam’s detail bag stocked with goodies I bring as well as my bucket that I keep loaded with products too!

Amiguel6 got a reaction from SgtLip in Opinions on the new Adams Vacuum
My thoughts on the Barrel Vacuum:
PROS
- Lightweight
- Nice Design
- Long, Durable Hose
- Changeable Tips
- Long power cord
- Cleanable filter
- Not too loud
- Enough capacity to vacuum several cars without needing to be cleaned out
CONS
- Not enough suction
- Perfect for a DIY, but not for a professional detailer
- No wheels (bottom scrapes from being sat on the ground)
I too agree that it would have been better if it had those missing features. Adam's is all about premium products and most people including myself have no problem paying a few more bucks for a more premium item. Unfortunately, this China made accessory fell short of "Premium". I get they want to offer better pricing for items manufactured in China, but I'd like to see more US made accessories, especially if the quality is better.

Amiguel6 reacted to Dan@Adams in Spray Nozzle STRAW's
Yep, we just insert them down into the bottle and allow the stem to curl into the bottom of the bottle to get every last drop. You can obviously cut them to length if you prefer, but it's not 100% necessary.
The smaller sprayer triggers are all the same length, which allows us to have one size of sprayer for 4oz, 8oz, and 12oz ceramic line products, so this saves on warehouse space and confusion when packing orders. I do usually trim those sprayers a bit for my 4oz and 8oz bottles though. The 16oz sprayers have a longer stem now too from previous years, which I like because I can use them on my older 32oz bottles now too

Hope to get one soon. I will hold off on using my kit until there is a better explanation on the application process.

Amiguel6 got a reaction from Rich in Problem with the new Ceramic Glass wipes
Thanks Rich, but i was looking for a different answer. I want to know what can we do during the application process so that this does not happen? Dan mentioned what to do if it does happen.

Amiguel6 reacted to quebert in new 16oz bottles?!?
That purple is an upselling point to get customers of mine to pay to have their wheels done. They might have at best a vague idea what I'm talking about when I explain iron deposits. But I tell them it'll turn purple, and then they see it turn purple they throw cash at me. As I said the new wheel and tire cleaner would be awesome for most people. Heck a lot of people just use whatever cheap-o Walmart car soap they buy. So it would be a big step up for them. Actually now thinking about what you said about scenarios, this is cheaper than the Eco Wheel cleaner, and probably a perfect maintenance product for wheels.
So I guess I gotta order the gallon with the free 16oz *sigh*

The biggest factor is that the new Wheel & Tire cleaner does not contain Thioglycolate (iron remover), which is the chemical that turns purple and pretty much self cleans the wheels in most cases. The Wheel & Tire Cleaner will work for a lot of scenarios, but sometimes you will need something stronger such as the original Wheel Cleaner.

I'd try the blue pad wih Heavy Correcting Compound or Sprayable Compound. You can use the Correcting Polish and Orange Pad as a second step in the correction process.

I have not used detail spray on ceramic, but I'd definitely try ceramic boost and apply that once a month. Use ceramic waterless as a replacement for detail spray for wipe downs and such.
