  1. These were taken right after I sprayed the truck off sorry for the bad lighting I will get better pics this week. I was very impressed how clean the truck came.
  2. Took the truck to the car wash over the weekend to rinse it off since it was dirty from all the crap they have out on the roads. Truck cleaned up great with just high pressure rinse including the wheels. Excellent beading on the paint and wheels and as soon as I drove the truck most of the water was gone with very little spotting when I got it home. I will post up some pics later. Ceramic boost acts like reload so I am very happy with the product. Will see how well it holds up through the winter.
  3. based on my experience with Reload ceramic boost acts the same when applying.
  4. In my experience reload from carpro does the same thing even on a freshly polished car. The silica in it is what causes this imo.
  5. I applied H20 gloss a few weeks ago. I washed the truck using the regular shampoo. Truck will be washed again next week using wash and wax
  6. When I saw Adams was offering this product it intrigued me. I have used reload on my vehicles before and have always loved the results so I ordered a bottle and ended up with an extra in a MB so double score. Last night I washed my red 2000 lightning and prepped it to use Ceramic boost since we will be seeing some winter weather here in KS this week. onto the review Smell: As with all Adams products the scent is always something to look forward too. Even my wife checks everything out to see what scent it is lol. smell is great and nothing that will bother you while applying Application: I have used reload before and was curious how ceramic boost would compare. Application temp was high 40's to low 50's in my garage. This made applying a little more work due the temp. If you have never used a product like this take your time and don't get frustrated. Adams instructions says apply with single soft on one side of the towel then flip over. I found this to not work so well so I used two single softs, one for applying and one for buffing. I also tried a double soft for buffing and due to the nature of the product didn't care for the results. If you have a darker color vehicle it will take a little work to ensure you have no smearing or streaks (pay close attention around emblems) I split each panel into 2 sections to make applying easier. My truck has a ceramic coating on the trim already so I applied ceramic boost to these areas as well. I also applied ceramic boost to the wheels to see how well it would hold up. End result: Sadly I wasn't able to capture pics due to the time of night. The truck had a great shine and a very slick finish. This is a product I see carrying from now on especially if it holds up. Next vehicle I plan to use it on is my wife's 2016 white Focus ST which I applied a ceramic coating to right after purchase. I cant wait to try the Adams ceramic coating on another vehicle of mine to see how it compares to others I have used.
  7. Purchased this a a year and a half ago from a friend and used a few times. Since I purchased my rupes mini I no longer use the cyclo. Works flawlessly $275
  8. Work for an aerospace company in Wichita ks called spirt aerosystems. Supervisor for 787 dream liner tooling operations
  9. Thanks guys. My neighbors think im my nuts cause I am always washing my cars or another car lol. Will try and snag a few pics of the others this week if the weather holds out
  10. Impalas is a blast to drive. 502 big block with Muncie 4 speed. 4 wheel wilwood disc and fast efi.
  11. We had a warm weekend here in ks so took advantage of it. I did a couple of maintenence washes for a friend of mine. First was his 63 impala and then his 13 ram. Both received 2 bucket wash followed by h20 gloss gaurd. I just started really using the gloss gourd and it has turnef into one of my favorite products.Ram will get some more work in the spring. The impala was polished in the fall. Also washed the wife's 02 GT, my 99 grand marquis (daily) and my 02 harley f150. Sadly didn't get any pics of those
  12. I recently added a mini to my collection and love it not sure how I did without it before
  13. I like the new logo. I prefer a hoodie over a front zip. Would also like to see gra and black offered. Like black but having 4 dogs makes keeping hair off them a full time chore lol
  14. Yeah have used undercarriage spray ever since it came out but dont care for how the dust sticks to it after driving a little. With the TID the wheels wells are easy to clean and have that new look. My wife laughs at me every time I do it but its the little things that make the difference lol
  15. Good tip I also use TID to wipe down the wheel wells on the wifes TBSS. Gives them a nice look and not dried out like if they are wiped down with APC.
  16. buttery definetly gets left out alot it seems I have loved this stuff since I first got hooked on adams years ago. Does wonders on black paint. Actually did my yellow svt focus today will a good coat of buttery followed by a coat of patriot turned out amazing as usual.
  17. I have put quite a few coats of patriot on both my car and the wifes ss and doesnt look like I have even touched it so hoping it lasts awahile lol. Its so nice to use I just want to use it all the time lol
  18. I run into the same issue all the time people want a full correction but think they can have it for 150 or less than want to complain abou the price. I usually just turn them away if its hat big of an issue for them. I work full time and do details in m spare time so I plan to make money to compensate using my spare time. I always hook friends and family up though but that a times gets annoying Joe
  19. I was curious about refills as well cause Im sure I will go through mine quick lol. I have even contemplated buying another when the last 50 are released plus another container would be awesome lol Joe
  20. I just pulled mine and tossed it tried scrubbing iot and washing it out and never came very clean. One thing you could do it repaint it if its stained. I have done that for some of the local mustang an cobra guys.
  21. I actually had the same issue last week when i applied glass sealant to my ss which was weird have used the glass sealant since it came out and never an issue. Ended up washig the truck over the weekend and was able to get rid of the haze. Does anyone know if glass sealant has a shelf life? have had mine for quite awhile now and dont use it very often Joe
  22. Truck looks good msn. Good to see another Wichita guy
