  1. yes, except they have the good sense to tell you that.. rather than encourage you to just put it on and not worry about it like the Adams videos and written instructions.. were I a more litigious type. I'd have my lawyer contact them.
  2. Well, I would appreciate that... I mean unless they're happy to have me share my story with every Tom, Dick and Harry I bump into and talk cars with in the SF Bay Area... which is what's been happening, and guys are shocked at the lack of concern.
  3. no fix that I can see... and the advise to level it is a day late and a dollar short... I'm pissed I have to keep wiping Aerospace 303 protectant over my black trim now so my 1 year old $185K 911 doesn't look like a faded 15 year old car... And all Adam's did was send me a $20 with of trim care and cleaner that didn't do anything to fix my problem. Not happy.
  4. I have no intention of applying any sort of stain on this car... it's practically brand new... I will use the cleaner .. but if the restore is a stain, it will come no where near my car.. The idea is to remove the error, not to pile on to it.. I might be tempted to use the stain on the kkckboards, but no chance of it getting on my louvers ..
  5. Just got off the phone with the rep that answered, and it took a good bit of effect to explain the situation, as he initially thought I was referring to the paint having high spots, and he didn't seem to understand that I completely followed the instructions 100% ... kept referring to installation errors.. anyway, he is sending me Adam's Black Trim Restorer and Black trim cleaner which he says will fix this... I am not at all looking forward to doing the louvers especially .. all those tiny spaces. I think maybe a tooth brush will help? But it upsets me the way he was deflecting the issue to me though as some sort of error .... Let's hope this fixes this fiasco .. if not, I will escalate this somehow.
  6. I only came across this thread after this happened as a result of a google search... I'm not new to this sort of thing... I've done ceramic coatings on other cars I own... I deliberately watched the videos (including yours) and read the instructions carefully... I will be calling in tomorrow and need to talk to a manager about a solution for this mess..
  7. No streaking appeared... matter of fact it looked great when I applied it and it remained so until the wash..,
  8. of course not... the instructions said no need, as did your own video! I followed the direction to the T... I leveled the paint, and glass, and metal... looks great! The rest of the car (thankfully I didn't do the front bumper) looks like crap! strangely it looked great until I washed it some two weeks later!
  9. So I decided to coat my car with Adam's Graphine ceramic coating... went very well actually... had a few high spots as expected and was able to address them with a simple technique ...Suffice it to say, 2 weeks later I decided to wash the car for the first time... and what do I find after it dries? The black part of my car that I did with their product (following their instructions to the letter) have that crappy wax effect now and even rubbing alcohol doesn't remove it.. Worse yet, the louvers too...which have a lot of difficult to reach areas to properly wash/clean..I did some google searching and came across this thread which shows I'm not the first guy... and they clearly need to re-do their videos and instructions manual so this doesn't happen again.What do you all think I should do? I'm going to call them Monday morning, but I'm afraid this will require replacement of these trim parts as this stuff goes on for 7+ years... its' not going to come of with any reasonable amount of washing or even a strong lacquer remover or mineral spirts which could also damage the plastic and extremely hard to reach in the detailed part of my rear louvers... There needs to be a major re-call or at least a campaign to address this issue.. I had to apply Foruma 303 which I hate to do on my black trim just so I can stand to look at it... but if I wash the car, it comes right off and it goes back to the same old ugly white look...
