I ordered a mystery bucket Monday afternoon, and Tuesday morning ordered the Cinco de mayo detail spray. I received my shipping notice Wednesday night for both orders. Things are getting faster for sure!
Thank you Adams team for still providing me car products I WANT while providing essential products to those that NEED them. Y’all are amazing.
Hello, new customer and member but I'm thoroughly hooked on Adam's products. I picked up a new-to-me ZL1 last fall and the owner was an Adam's customer. He'd done paint correction, ceramic coating, etc. and the car was/is absolutely immaculate in every way. It sat all winter and have finally had a chance to get it dirty this spring.
I've always been a Meguiar's & 3M customer and was happy with their stuff until I used it on my Camaro. I learned a hard lesson about towels and cheap chemicals by introducing swirls and dulling the shine. The previous owner came over and showed me why Adam's is better. I'll never use anything else.
It took a bit, and lots of extra hours and additional staff, but delays are no longer posted on the site (as of this post), likely meaning we're back on a "normal" shipping timeframe at this time.
Thanks for your patience, Adam's will continue to do all we can to get your orders out the door as quickly and safely as possible, and adjusting processes as necessary. Enjoy!

Generally I agree with your sentiment 100%. I’ve openly disagreed on things Adam’s has done in the past on this forum, as well as directly to Adam himself of various representatives of the company. Admittedly, I can be pretty critical.
That being said in this case I feel your sentiment is misguided, despite being well intentioned.
“Desperate times call for desperate measures.” That’s the saying anyway.
We are currently experiencing a pandemic on a world scale that is unlike anything we have ever seen. Economies are crippled. Death tolls continue. Infection rates rise. Resources are drained.
This is something that has an impact on nearly every town, county, state, nation and continent. Everything is a fluid situation in a constant state of flux where needs change daily, or even by the minute.
Not only do I own Detailed Reflections, but my true career (the one that really pays the bills) is being a firefighter in a community of 50,000 people. We have seen the feelings change from “we have plenty of gear” to “one to one replacement” so we don’t run out. So far to date, my community has over 200 cases of Covid-19. We have transported approximately seventy of these patients. I myself (and my crew) have had four direct contacts with Covid-19 positive patients to date that we know of. With every contact comes the need for more products to decontaminate ourselves and our equipment. This has created a shift where smaller local businesses have shifted their production to support their communities instead of the bottom line. We have an adhesive company a couple towns over that made hand sanitizer for every member of our department. This allowed them to keep their employees working, and helps the community. It’s the proverbial “win-win.”
Everyone now is being divided (right or wrong) into essential and non-essential. Non essential businesses are sometimes able to sustain themselves by offering something they don’t always. The need for general sanitization products versus car care products is clear currently. I can state that as the owner of a business that relies on car care products and the availability of them to keep going.
Adam’s is putting their community before the needs of it’s existing “customers.” If our communities fail, the businesses fail. And companies disappear completely. You’re going to see a few crisis’ arise thanks to Covid-19 outside of healthcare. You will see a financial crisis, unemployment crisis, mental health crisis, potential housing crisis (credit will be trashed, savings wiped out, mortgages in default). It’s going to take time to climb out way out of this. The way we do that is by understanding that the needs of everyone have shifted significantly during this time.
If you live in a lesser affected area, it doesn’t mean the companies in your area aren’t supporting those in areas of impact.
For the greater good of society, and to end this as quickly as possible Adam’s has done the right thing. They should be applauded, not reminded that they need to get back to car care products and customers.
I mean no disrespect to your thoughts, just sharing the views from the other side of the fence. I don’t want to bring Covid-19 home to my family because I couldn’t get what I needed to remain safe. And I don’t want to have to change how I interact with members of the community I serve out of fear or lack of proper supplies. Right now we all need to support each other. For the greater good.
