does h2o GG have a cure time? can I drive the car after it’s been an hour since applying?

Thanks. also does the adams shampoo the blue one leave any kind of film behind or any kind of gloss enhances or anything that would mess with the bonding of the GG since I’ll be washing once more with the shampoo after claying?

yes I’m going to be very careful since I’m not polishing after. with the clay mitt do you just gently glide it over the paint without much pressure?

sweet ride man, looks great!

Yeah I’ve heard a lot of good reviews about the product. Very excited to try it. good to hear that it’s been working out for you with that method. It seems like it doesn’t build up real bad and cause issues glad to hear that you only had to strip and clay once a year.

Hey guys so I’m pretty new to the detailing word so I wanna make sure I’m doing this right. here is my plan so far for using G&G. (I don’t have a polisher or any polishes yet so I will be skipping this step for right now and will just try and be careful when claying). step 1: wash car with strip wash step 2: clay car with clay mitt (using adams car shampoo for lube, I have DS but want to save it for wipe downs and drying aid) then rinse off. step 3: wash car with adams shampoo to remove any contaminants left over from claying process step 4: with car still wet apply the h2o GG with damp towel and then buff with dry towel. I will use waterless wash and detail spray in between my 2 bucket washes to maintain car. I will reapply h2o GG every 4th wash or about 2-3 months or as needed. quick question with reapplying h2o GG, is it necessary to strip wash or clay again to remove any remaining G&G or can I simply just apply another layer of G&G on top of the old layer every 2-3 months? last question, does adams shampoo have anything in it that will mess with the bonding of the h2o GG? Should I skip using the shampoo after claying and use surface prep instead or is the shampoo fine? thank you for any comments or suggestions!

Hey everyone, I’m relatively new to the car detailing game. But am eager to learn more. have been a fan of Adams products for a few years now and have decided to join the forum here to learn more and perfect my detailing process. my current rides, my daily driver Nissan 370z with the black cherry metallic finish. then my garage queen, a full bolt on and ethanol tuned Ford Focus ST in Kobalt blue. I will post up some pictures when I have more time!
