I recently found out the CO Adam's location is about 15mins away from me. I have not used many Adam's products before but took a drive over. Nice spot there!
I figured I would pick-up some of the hand polish and a flex pad to supplement my machine polishing on my own vehicle. I find a strong desire to pull out my DA each time I find imperfections on my daily driver. That said, I don't drive a lot but since buying the DA I've been tempted to pull it out for small "spot" corrections almost monthly. I'm looking for a way to avoid that and decided to grab Adam's hand polish with the orange hex pad. I know the blue pad combo is recommended but after figuring out the right DA combo that worked, I thought I might need something a little stronger to fix minor imperfections. For DA polishing I was using an orange CCS pad and medium level polish to actually achieve correction in the car's finish.
For whatever reason my car seems to get those minor scratches pretty easily (from dust/pollen/dirt?) but they can be tough to polish out. I started with the black & white CCS pads and an AiO polish when I first got my DA but ultimately landed on orange and a medium cut polish to get my desired results. These are not swirls but light scratches visible in just the right lighting (the kind probably only super anal people worry about).
Any thoughts on the hand polish and orange hex combo for between polishes?
**Edit - apologies, was not looking to name specific non-Adam's products but thought by providing the actual DA pad I use in machine polishing it would provide context. Thanks!
