  1. Oh, most definitely, I guess I was just explaining why it’s more watery then what she may be used to, because it is mega foam and that is its normal consistency.
  2. The holiday shampoo is a different colored/scented Mega Foam which is more watery appearing/less viscous than other Adam’s shampoo’s because of its different chemical makeup compared to other Adam’s more traditional car shampoos. When Mega Foam was first released that was the first thing that drew my attention, how thin it appeared in the bottle.
  3. Got my order in, seems it went live a little early. 😃 Have fun everyone and enjoy the upcoming Holidays!!!
  4. I just double checked and it was what they posted on their Instagram so it better be accurate, though I’ll be refreshing early, lol.
  5. I saw 10am MST which is 12 Noon EST. Think it was on Instagram. There goes giving forum members a bit of extra time to get some goodies before the rush... They also mentioned “Don’t miss the door busters” so check for other stuff before it sells out I guess. Problem is, while shopping for door busters other things like the 4 bottle holiday box may sell out as we don’t know how limited it is, I haven’t seen any numbers mentioned as to how many were produced for that particular item.
  6. Adam’s should drop the release time for online ordering here in the forums as a perk for the enthusiasts who participate here.
  7. I said it when released and I’ll say it again: This scent in a shampoo needed a gallon release! It really does smell great. 👍
  8. Probably when they get rid of the 20% discount code and go back to another 15% off code, lol. I’ve been in need of and waiting to order a new bottle of glass sealant so this came out at a perfect time. Finally, a new release coming out before I make an order for an older ‘inferior’ product. I wonder if we’ll also see that ceramic rinse + coat released when this releases...
  9. I wish that Apple Cider Car Shampoo was available in a gallon size...
  10. Ceramic paste has 5% more SIO2 according to an Adams chart I’ve seen (35% versus 30%) and the ceramic paste is durability rated at 6-8 months whereas the ceramic liquid wax is 5-6 months. If you want to apply with a polisher I’d go with the ceramic liquid for ease and faster application personally.
  11. Love the new design and the new payment methods (Apple Pay in my case) are also much welcome. Great job Adam’s!
  12. I’m on a family road trip and staying at a cabin in Missouri. After driving 1,400 miles over two days I finally got here and had to wash my ride. The bugs on the front end and side mirrors were insane, of course. Prior to leaving home I washed with Adams regular car wash and topped off with ceramic boost while drying. After getting here 3 days ago, I washed in the evening using Adams new Ceramic Wash. Let me tell you, having the vehicle not only ceramic coated 19 months ago but topped off fresh with Ceramic Boost before the trip really really helped the bugs come off rather easily. I also pre made a small spray bottle with diluted car wash in it before leaving home to pre spray the bugs before washing to help loosen them up and did a pre soak before washing with the ceramic car wash. Anyways, I did that regularwash 3 days ago so this morning I did a Ceramic Waterless Wash as we haven’t had rain and the truck just needed a touch up. I absolutely love the results Adams products provides, especially the new ceramic infused products. Here are two pics after the ceramic waterless wash today:
  13. Brilliant Glaze works great for interior windows around the home, same as on the inside of the windshield of the vehicle.
  14. My vehicle is ceramic coated but after experiencing mild streaking with CB 2.0 on dry paint, I now only use it after a wash as a drying aid, applied on moderately wet paint, and I no longer have an issue. I do use a cordless leaf blower to blow off some of the water and get it out of cracks and crevices, but I find the extra bit of water left behind doesn't affect its 'boosting' effectiveness and considerably helps avoid streaking. I use Ceramic Boost around once a month now and all the other washes in between are dried using Detail Spray.
  15. Yeah, it’s probably best they don’t advertise that it has sio2 content as it’ll just help to confuse.
  16. Not really as it would detract from the characteristics of a ceramic coating as HGG has no SIO2. It’s not ‘mandatory’ but it’s best to use sio2 products with a coating.
  17. I was kind of considering doing your original mention Jeff; Once I use up all the detail spray I have, which isn't a small amount I'll admit lol, I am considering just using the new Ceramic Waterless like a detail spray and continue to use my Ceramic Boost once a month after a wash as the drying aid. I find it easier to apply/remove Ceramic Boost after a wash while the paint is still wet and I’m drying the vehicle. I find it has the propensity to stream far less applying it this way and it kills two birds with one stone. I also apply it to the rims the same way monthly.
  18. IMO, it’s never a sin to use them but that’s coming from someone who uses their Limited Editions. I buy them to enjoy their scents while using them so once they’re used up I still have the bottle which is the main attraction to displaying them. If I want, I’ll just fill them with another companies concentrated detail spray that’s purchased concentrated very cheap and is white. I’ll then add food coloring until I get the original Adam’s LE color for that particular bottle. Since I wouldn’t be looking to sell them, I don’t care if the contents aren’t original at that point, they still display nicely. I actually did this with the Black Friday detail spray once I used it up.
  19. I just noticed this morning that there are only 7 more bottles of the Cars & Coffee Detail Spray left in stock. It's been around a while and most of us who wanted it probably have it already but I figured I'd mention it if there are newer members who may still want to get in on it before it's gone as I don't know if it is a regularly stocked item.
  20. I’m also looking for a cinco should someone need a 300k, if anyone wants to make that trade after 67’s gets his.
  21. No problem guys, I was glad to see it this morning and like you mentioned falcaineer, it should be something they eventually integrate into the Adam's site as I think people will find it helpful. One thing I just noticed that could be important to some people is that the ceramic liquid wax is safe on all exterior surfaces whereas the ceramic paste wax is not. I've always personally preferred paste waxes but it's good to know to be extra careful when using it around windshield cowls etc. as I've got to think I'm not alone in wanting to tape off trim while applying things like ceramic paste wax.
  22. I just saw this new 'chart' on Amazon listing SiO2 percentages for some of the new ceramic products and some are a little different, not much, from what we've seen elsewhere. It shows the Ceramic Paste Wax as 5% more than the liquid ceramic wax and that the paste offers a little but longer protection, but minimal. It also needs to be updated to show that the Ceramic Waterless is 7% and not 10%. It is also interesting to see that in this chart, Ceramic Boost now gets a percentage attached to it. In the end I agree with falcaineer and feel it's more of a personal preference thing, does one prefer applying a lotion/liquid wax or a paste wax. Here's that chart for the heck of it:
  23. Spray wax can be used on wet paint so I’d use it while drying whenever you wash the car. I’d replace the spray wax with the G&G once a month. And then use the BG on top of either the spray wax or G&G if you want very temporary extra gloss. If you’re pressed for time after washing and won’t really be driving around a lot where the extra gloss will be appreciated, skip the BG, no big deal. BG isn’t really for protection at all, it’s primary function is adding short term, like 2 days of superb gloss. They say spray wax wax lasts a month or two but from experience that’s all so dependent upon outside kept/garage kept, the season one is in and temperatures at the time, sun exposure etc etc. If you’re washing once a week or every two weeks and using spray wax as a drying aid after each wash with G&G thrown in as the drying aid once a month and have paint sealant as a base under it all, you’ll IMO always have some decent protection going on. No problem and let me/us know what you think of using the BG on the inside of the windshield as time goes by. And if you’ve never used a glass sealant before on the exterior windshield/exterior glass in general, it is something you may want to also consider. I began like many using rain-X nearly 20 years ago and eventually switched to better glass sealants and once every two months or so I boost exterior glass protection with Adam’s glass boost and I find the water beading glass sealant offers invaluable in the rain.
