Congratulations!

Niiiiice,Leather Conditioner is my favorite Adams product,keeps my seats in excellent condition and smells so damn good. I use it on the leather headboard of my bed too,good ****!

Use the Jumbo Gray Double Plush towel and a ultra plush for touchups on my Black Durango every wash and its been perfectly fine,no scratches or anything. Both are excellent towels.

Absolutely no idea. Maybe it's a type-o? Let us know...

Definitely watermelon,it smells decent but damn the grape would have smelled so much better.

You did notice the UFS is watermelon scent, not grape, right?

Awe crap I didn't! Guess I'll give my girl those two. Why watermelon and not grape??

Grabbed a few of those air fresheners as they are my favorite scents,now if we could get a tire shine scented one I'd be ecstatic.

@FuryanIf it just a sealant it probably will be removed when clayed, or at least the clay will remove alot of the protection.  

Okay thank you. Is there anything i can do to get that crud off without removing the sealant?

Thanks for the information in here. Quick question if u may. My vehicle came with a sealant from the dealership. Is it true claying it now will rub that sealant off. I noticed lots of debris around the bottom of my car when washing today. Needs a good claying for sure.

Would diluted VRT work for all my door/hood seals and exterior plastic trim? Or should I stick with full concentrate?

Looks real good! Bruiser Gray? 

Thanks! It does resemble Bruiser in the pics hmmm. It's called Crystal Black or something to that effect. It's got shiny little specks in the paint when you get up really close. Funny tho  because it was between this one and a bruiser grey which has a very unique color. I chose this because It had all the features I wanted,if the bruiser had the same I would have bought it.

Wow! Looks incredible!!! 😎

Thanks! 

Finally got to wash my ride after a long long winter. It hasent been properly been washed since last fall so I was excited to get er clean. This was my first time using Adams products and a pressure washer and I am just amazed to say the least. Thanks for all the info on here and thank you Adam for the great products. For the interior I used ID,Leather Cleaner and Leather Conditioner,waterless wash for the door jams. The exterior I used the blue shampoo,Detail spray,tire/rubber cleaner,wheel cleaner and tire shine and VRT for all the exterior plastic and door seals. I also sealed the windshield with Adams Glass sealant and cleaned all the windows with his glass cleaner. For towels I used every Adams towel to see what I liked best and for what. All worked really great. 

My neighbors saw me out there cleaning my ride so they started cleaning theirs. Anyways I saw them out there with new cars but using cheap towels,paper towels,dish soap ect. I offered one to try my Adams products but he refused, the rag and dish soap and his one bucket was all he needed on his brand new truck. I snickered,okay then. He cleaned the interior,tires,wheels,exterior and engine bay....but all with the same one rag and a bath towel to dry. Yikes. Needless to say Im the new wash king on the block,thanks Adams! Anyways here are some pics..

Welcome to the forum.  I personally always clay any new vehicle. There are always contaminants from storage, shipping, etc.  The dealerships wash and prep them, but they don't clay them and do a proper detail. BUT with what you have on your ride, I wouldn't take the chance of voiding that warranty.  Nothing is going to hurt the clear bra. I treat mine just like I do the rest of my vehicle. Just be careful of the edges. Best advice is to follow your manufacturer instructions. Very nice looking ride. 

Thanks for the compliment and input!

From what I can find out about that product, you are best off just cleaning it.  On another forum folks have reported that they do not like the look of it, and have issues adding other waxes over the top of it.

Since I paid for it Ima let it ride for now,and I think it looks good personally. Looking forwards to it wearing off eventually so I can try Adams exterior products.

Hello all Im pretty new to the forum and detailing in general. I got a new vehicle not to long ago and figured Id journey into the world of detailing it fully on my own. I have a few questions about detailing the exterior of my vehicle. SO a few things about my vehicle that will help you guys and gals direct me in the right direction on how to care for my SUV (Dodge Durango GT). First off when I purchased it I had them install/add their Mopar Mastershield Treatments which included a "clear bra" on the hood and door jams(to help prevent door dings), Mopar Mastershield Paint Sealant, and their Undercoat which covers inside the wheel wells,looks like gray "blanket"type material. I was told by the dealership not to use wax on the sealant and in 3 years I can get another recoat of the sealant free of charge. Im not sure why wax wouldnt be okay with this sealant. Anyways the few questions I have are

1.Do you guys think I could add any of the Adams exterior products in conjunction with this sealant of theirs and it be okay? Like the waxes,glazes,G&G ect...

Link for sealant I believe ->https://www.amazon.com/Chrysler-Genuine-82212075-Paint-Sealant/dp/B00G6F6U84

2. How do I go about cleaning the clear bra parts. Wash and dry as normal,but can other products be used on them safely?

3. Being a new car I have read there is no reason to clay the vehicle yet. This true? And would it damage the sealant in question if I did?

4. Any tips for maintaining a black vehicle? And maintaining my sealant coating?

Pics of my ride. Nothing applied besides the factory sealant. Shine and beading seems okay for stock. Do i need to apply anything more?

And the best part is that the original post was three  years ago. All of the products have been improved since then!  You'll get even better results.

So it is lol that's great news.

Thanks everyone,looking forward to learning alot here! 

Thanks for the write up,this will come in very handy for me for my first serious detailing. 

Hello all. As the title states I'm brand new to detailing. I've always been OCD about keeping my cars clean but now I'm on a whole new level. Bought my first brand new ride a 2018 Dodge Durango GT Black Crystal with Blacktop package,so all black lol. Got to researching detailing after my dealer said not to use car washes,found out about Adam's and bought a crapload of products and here I am.

Since I live in the midwest it's been cold,snowy,icy and unforgiving this year so I've been anxiously awaiting for a day above 40 degrees so I can wash my baby and try out these products,its killing me lol. I will get some pics once I get a chance to get her clean. Thanks,see y'all on the forums!
