  1. What is best method to wash and dry Ceramic coated car? Thank you
  2. Suggestions for detailing exhaust tips inside and outside. Thank you
  3. Any suggestions for removing of filling in? Thank you
  4. HI Adam...I sent photos to Adans Polishes Support and to Orders@AdamsPolishes. Couldn't figure how to attach to forum. You can place on forum if want.
  5. Hi Adam: That is exactly what I do....Every few months I apply the Brillant Glaze over the Buttery wax. I just applied the Buttery wax over the total Vette and will apply brillant glaze in 3 weeks. The 2016 Vette has 2700 miles and the paint is in great shape. I bought it with 2000 miles. I just thought there might be a way to acheive more "pop". I will send photos to your office ( mif can figure how to will send to site) Thank you, Bill
  6. I am a hand polish guy. Have tried machine which caused concern. It is not for me. I am almost 80 years old. Just curious if there are some other product I should try. Presently I clay, then use revive polish ( called something else now ...the blue polish) then buttery wax, then brillant glaze. To refresh I use the buttery wax then glaze. Occassionally Adams detail spray although mostly use the detail spray when wash immediately before drying. I also tried graphene detail spray and was dissapointed with result on shark grey. My neighbor and I then tried it on blue and got great results. Also got posative results on silver Kia. Perhaps shark grey is more difficult? I've had green, white, black and DSOM Vettes that seem shineyier than this shade of grey. If anyone on the forum has good results handpolishing grey lets talk. Thank you
  7. This happened Around 10 a m. Overspray from landscaping. Got on passenger side of hood and fender. I washed Vette around 2 and tried removing with Adams blue wax (use to be called Revive), then buttery, then glaze. Some etching has occurred. Then borrowed drill buffer from neighbor and a product he had. Made me nervous so quit. I am ordering the Adams water spot remover first thing in morning. Some water spotting with etching on Corvette hood vents. Vette is in garage with car cover. The water spot remover video looks good. Has anyone used this? Any words of wisdom? Think I will apply detail spray first then this. I do not have waterless wash ( except for some that is 10 plus years old). IS THERE A LOCAL STORE I CAN PICK THIS UP FROM? sounds like the sooner the better. I am in Oakland California and San Ramon Valley. Thank you
  8. I did not care for the graphene detail spray on Vette. Results were nonstandard. On shark grey the area was not as crisp or bright as the normal Adams detail spray or the brilliant glaze. When looking at the area where sun was reflecting in the hood the graphene seemed blurry. With the other two products the sun reflection was crisp, well defined, very bright and round. .....On white car the Graphene was much better (3 separate areas the Graphene, adams spray and glaze were applied to all appearred to be the same). My neighbor borrowed the graphene and used on a dark blue car. Results were very good. Perhaps different colors acheive different results. I have not experienced any "spots"
  9. I, too, only hand wax.. I have been on this forum for around 15 to 20 years, although the forum does not show this.. I first tried a PC2474 buffer. However, for me hand waxing seemed best. My formula is ........ .1.Wash with Adams car shampoo. Remove hose nozzle and sheet water off, then use the great white drying towel in straight lines 2. apply Revive Polish (cleans and shines). 3. Buttery Wax. 4. Brilliant Glaze I apply each in straight motions. First working left to right, then up and down, then left to right again. I usually cover Vette after doing Revive and wait a few days before apply the Buttery wax. I then cover again, wait a day and apply the Brillant Glaze. When I buff by hand I also rub in alternating straight lines. I never apply or buff in circles. Sometimes I will wash again before apply the final brilliant glaze. I apply the Brillant Glaze to the exterior of all glass and inside the tail pipes. I apply the Buttery Wax to the polished wheels (sometimes using the Brilliant Glaze). I get excellent results with the above. After this when wash Vette I lightly spray Adams Detail Spray on surfaces beforer using the Adams drying towel. Thank you
  10. I need to let them do this without infringing. (hard for me to do). They power washed today and thought was clean. It is not...I put a little detail spray on trunk and yuk. I've also let them have polish etc , towels and old PC2474. I mentioned claying but immediately qualified this as being too difficult. A few questions......Is there a liquid clay substitute? My PC 2474 may not have the spindle. If not does anyone know where I can get one? In the meantime I need to sit back and enjoy the boys doing this. (it wont be easy for me to stay hands off.) But apparently that is what 80 year old grandpas should sometimes do. Thank you, Bill
  11. What is good for getting rid of these? They are starting to show after 18k miles. Thank you
  12. What is shelf live of Brilliant Glaze and Buttery wax? Also which should be applied first? I've always applied the brilliant glaze over the wax, however, someone questioned this. When I am going on a Corvette run or show I use the glaze over the wax Instead of detail spray. I have mettallic shark grey paint. The brilliant glaze really makes it pop. . What is longevity of both on the car after applying? Thank you
