    Mike E. got a reaction from falcaineer in Shine Academy Classes   
    I attended the Shine Academy, Nov 12th and 13th, at the Colorado location. What a great time! Chris, Dan and Tyler are fantastic instructors and great guys to be around. I've been detailing for five years and learned a number of techniques that will speed my detailing process up. There were eight students in the class so we had lots of individual instruction. Made some new friends with the other students. A very enjoyable experience. Highly recommend the class.

    You certainly can't be an Adam's fan if you have an issue with chasing the latest and greatest!  It'll drive you bonkers.  Probably the closest thing I can think of for a complaint about this dang place, LOL.  1st world problems, right?!?!?!

    This was one wild and frustrating winter. I was rear ended in mid-December by a guy who was inattentive, and completely missed the turquoise coupe stopped at the light (read: me). I knew that it was going to be a battle when he attempted to offer me $1000 to repair the bumper. That was not going to fly, and then he told me that there was a "problem with [his] insurance," on that specific vehicle (late 1980's GMC panel truck). I figured that this was going to be an uninsured motorist claim, so I advised my own insurance company, and forwarded them the dash cam footage that has be stopped at the red light, and even the camera recorded the impact from the the truck. 
     
    However, it turns out that the guy *does* have insurance, but they are debating whether to cover it as apparently the truck failed smog inspection, so it did not have a valid registration. Weeks turn into months, as the other insurance company continues to slow walk their 'investigation.' The estimate from the collision center was between $4100 and $5000 (using all OEM parts), and a few days after getting that done, the other driver calls me to once again offer me $1000. I then tell him that the $1000 would be insufficient, as the estimate dwarfs that. 
     
    Fast forward to late-March, when my insurance company calls me to let me know that the person who was handling the file at the other driver's insurance (Infinity) "was no longer with the company," and apparently had done nothing. 😡 
     
    Finally, on the last week of March, I was cleared to have the repairs completed as it was going to be filed as an uninsured motorist claim. The final total for repairs was $4490, plus an additional supplement of $900 for extra paint shop time. 
     
    So finally, I have my car back, and even though it was detailed at the collision center, I needed to go over it again. And of course, I've ordered a ceramic coating kit since the paint is fresh. 😁
     

     
    One thing that I was impressed with was that after 7 months since the last time I cleaned the engine bay, there was just a little bit of dust, which was taken care of with some DS and then I used VRT on the plastic bits, as well as the rubber gasket that runs around the engine compartment.

    I just want to throw some Kudos out at Christian in Adams Support. Dude was super helpful, knowledgeable and just all around great to deal with. It never ceases to amaze me how nice the folks are at Adams and how well they treat the customer. It’s why they are such a great company to buy from. The best part is the customer service. I’ve never had experiences like I have with Adams with ANY other company I have traded with. Chic Fil A is the only thing that comes close. This is probably the third or fourth time I am bragging on someone at Adams. It won’t be the last. Christian if you are out there on the Forum, THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORT TODAY!!! YOU ROCK BRO!!!!!

    Nice and sunny, but cool today, so we decided to take a ride to the Italian store, close to Pittsburgh.  Managed to get out of there only $80 lighter in the wallet.  But dinner tonight was sausage stromboli, pasta with basil/tomato sauce, fresh wood fired bread, and $13 worth of olives and artichokes.  As an Italian,  I have to say I enjoyed myself.  Can't move now, but I enjoyed myself.  😁

    I used my stool that @falcaineerrecommended three times today, 2 SUV's and one pickup.  It also gets plenty of use around the house besides the vehicles being a nice solid platform to stand on, yet light weight and easy to move.

    I recommend this stool, and a large drying towel like the Ultra Plush.
