Welcome to the Forum Derek.  The Toy looks great and being Red, of course I'm a fan.   It looks like you have an excellent start on your Adam's products.

 

With this being a forum about Adam's products I won't name other products, but I can say that I used to use a very good leather conditioner that wasn't Adam's.  Then I received a bottle of Adam's Leather Conditioner in a mystery box and have used nothing else since then.  It not only does an excellent job at conditioning the leather, it has the best smell of any leather conditioner that I've ever used.  If you get an opportunity pick up a bottle of the Adam's Leather Conditioner, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised like I was, especially since you are in a heat and sun environment like I am in South Carolina.

 
Hi Ray. I didn’t think about that, thank you and corrected. I will definitely have to check out the Adam’s leather conditioner.

Welcome to the forum Derek! The Toyota looks fantastic.  Get some of the Graphene Detail Spray to keep it looking amazing.  

Thanks Rich! I already have some 😀

Good morning. Although I’ve been detailing cars for 25-ish years, I’m still a weekend warrior. I’ve always kept my vehicles in very good condition but I decided to take yesterday and today off work and put some time into my truck. Yesterday I spent 10 1/2 hours prepping and today 5 hours applying Adam’s Graphene Ceramic Coating and wrapping up other little details. 

Products used:

Leather conditioner

Adams Strip Wash

Adams large wheel woolie

... DA polisher

Adams white polish with white foam pad

Adams blue compound with blue pad

Adams Detail Spray

Adams medium clay bar

Adams Tire and Rubber Cleaner

Adams Surface Prep

Adams Eco Wheel Cleaner
Adams Graphene Ceramic Coating

Adams coating applicator blocks (4)

Adams micro suede removal towels (4)

Adams Tire Shine

So far, I am amazed with the outcome!! Seeing how this was my first coating ever, I chose to apply the coating in the dark using the Adams UV light supplied with the kit. I honestly don’t think this could’ve been any easier. It was very simple to keep track of my progress and what I needed to do yet. The coating went on all painted surfaces, all glass, mirrors, wheel faces and most of the black plastic on the truck. Looks incredible for almost a 4 year old truck. Let me know what you think...

Just wanted introduce myself. I'm Derek and I'm a weekend warrior when it comes to detailing. I've been detailing for 25 years but never made it a business. Over the years I've used many products including Meguiars and Pinnacle but started using Adams November of '19 and have been very impressed with their products, customer service/ support, and fan base ever since. There is a ton of great information on this site and I look forward to learning more as things continually evolve. Thank you.
