    I applied Adams UV Ceramic Spray Coating to the front clip of our Hellcat. I applied Adams Ceramic Paint Coating 14 months ago and maintain the coating with Boost and CS3. I wanted to add a little more protection against bugs.

    A balmy 15c/59f here today and sunny. Perfect for a wash.
    Didn't take a before pic, but here is the old beat up nox after a wash, HGG, glass sealant, and a little attention paid to the trim and tires.
    Probably time to swap the wheels back over to the all seasons.
    Oh, also used TRC on the weathertech mats then hit them while working the tires and trim. They look like new - thanks one take Tuesday!
    Lastly hit the interior with interior detail spray with microban.
     
    More work than I planned to do, but you know how it goes. Once you get started...

    Completed a full correction on my 2013 HD Soft Tail Breakout. It had been under a cover in the garage for a couple months. It was clean. Did a Waterless Wash, Clay Bar, Compound, Polish, and finished her off with Ceramic Spray Coating. Used my Adam's Micro Cordless SK Polisher. Great little machine.

    I had a retired friend come by for a couple of days from Upstate NY his truck needed a way before continuation of their trip to Florida.  They tow a 35' 5th wheel and have plenty of miles on the 2014 diesel dually all wheel drive rig.  The interesting item was that they have had the truck for a while and I was told that he could never really get it to shine.   Now, they are planning on putting in a Adam's order when they get to the Finger Lakes region.   
     
    The truck is a whole lot of black to get the Upstate NY road grime and they had been in NC camping in an area with red clay and I forgot to take a before picture.  I told him the come back by and spend a few days, we can polish it out properly and coat it.  As is it took the two of us about 5 hours to get it looking like this.

    After church services today mom's 2016 Toyota Corolla got a quick wash. I foamed the car using a competitor’s foaming surface prep wash. While that dwelled I cleaned the tires with some TW tire cleaner that had been hiding out in the basement for a few years. Wheels were cleaned with competitor’s foaming surface prep wash. After rinsing almost all visible dirt and road film appeared to have been removed. I washed it using several MF wash pads/mitts in a bucket along A competitor’s car wash. I rinsed it off then blew it dry with a leaf blower. Since it’s ceramic coated I gave it a layer of Adam’s Ceramic Boost. Wheels also got a layer of Ceramic Boost and tires got Adam’s Tire Shine.

    Mom is a very healthy 85 and as long as she’s able to safely drive I’ll keep her ride shiny and swirl free.  She told her Toyota dealer service writer to not wash her car last week as I was doing it this weekend...and they listened!

    Finally adamized my sis in laws pilot.  Compound, polish, brilliant glaze, sealant and ceramic liquid. Tires and glass sealed, full interior job as well as deodorizer. Also took the one step kit to the headlights and sealed those as well, you can see how oxidized they were on the before pic. She was super happy, I welcomed her to the Adam's way of life 😀
    Also cleaned up the wrangler, did some trim restore and installed the anti tailgate spray, I mean tire shine, or as my tailgaters may say "tire blind" 👍

    Light rain on and off here in South Texas ... Try to stay in but sometimes you just have to...  Quick wipe down with some CS3 and she looks good again.

    It was a sunny 84 in Columbia today so I did a quick wash on the Garage Queen Terrain and changed the color of the my truck.  I have around 100 Azalea bushes, plus about 10 dogwoods, surrounded by pines and every other type of tree, flower and bush you can imagine and they are all in full bloom .  There is no escaping the pollen at this point.
     
    The second picture of the truck has water drops after a rinse and within minutes I could see the pollen rings on the water droplets.  There is no need to try and do anything special at this point, but I did do an experiment.   Last fall, I ceramic coated the tonneau cover and in the past I've needed to do a deep clean and treatment with 303 each.   The tonneau has stayed in excellent shape and since the water was still beading today, but I did go over it with CS3 today.   I did the wife's Terrain earlier this week and was impressed with how slick it was when washing it, so it will be interesting to see how the tonneau is come next weekend when covered with pollen again.

    Got my CS3 today and was very skeptical when I ordered it. Had two seconds to hit my car with it before my wife left. Did the hood quick and immediately ran inside and place an order for the CS3 Gallon kit!  Smells amazing. Super slick, and the gloss was outstanding!!! I can’t wait to do the whole car.

    Either way works. A little goes a long way with Boost, so 2-3 sprays per panel is usually a pretty good rule.

    That has worked better for me as far as avoiding streaks.  I actually go a step further and spray it on a MF applicator, spread into a panel or half panel (for the bigger ones) at a time, and then buff away with a MF towel.
