Unfortunately, I've only washed my truck twice this year in order to conserve. Last year I also washed it maybe 5 times total. In previous years, I would wash every 2 or three weeks on nice weather days when water levels were ok.

Big thanks to Adams CS. They got a replacement out to me. Received today. My eyes opened up when I saw the nice green color, opened the bottle and took a big whiff with a smile on my face for a minute or two. Perfect!! I poured the old stuff out and threw that weird sprayer away that didn't work worth a darn- but kept the empty bottle. I'll post it in the Adams collection thread.

Yup, the middle one is my latest, the one to the left was from some time ago. I called CS and they are getting another one out to me. I'll keep you posted.

That's great! Thanks.

Thanks for all replies, I'm pretty sure it is not TID because my TID does have that distinctive smell and color. The glass cleaner in question does have a lime scent, but somewhat heavily perfumed- very hard to explain. On the left is my old glass cleaner, in the middle is the new stuff, and on the right is TID. All have their own color. But in this post http://www.adamsforums.com/topic/28229-my-first-adams-haul/ you can see the nice green color. Is there a way to get a pic of the current production glass cleaner?

I know about a year ago, the Glass Cleaner color changed to a pale blue/green color. I am almost out of the original stuff, and had ordered a bottle of the new stuff a few months ago. This new stuff doesn't seem to be the same as the old and the smell is very different and has different properties. To me, the new stuff smells somewhat "powdery" - sort of like baby powder and lime. I noticed someone posted a pic of a recent purchase and it looks like the glass cleaner pictured is a nice green color. Anyone know if the new new stuff now is like the old stuff? I'd be thrilled if it was like the old original stuff and the smell is the same as it was previously. I'd definitely have to pick up a couple more bottles if its like the old stuff.

Am I Doing Something Wrong?

Every 13-14 Mustang I have seen has had pretty bad taillight marring (especially the black parts). Even brand new at the dealer. They must be very soft. -
Those are very nice towels!

Amazing thread!! I like your idea for sealing the lip on the lid of the wash bucket where water gets stuck.

The original waterless towel?

They look the same, but the previous ones look lighter. -
This is why I love Adams Glass Sealant

Nice vid. I have had my windshield bead like that at times, but not sure if it is just me or not, but it sort of gets me a bit dizzy watching the rain bead and travel back... -

Green vs. Blue glass towels
jimboman replied to jimboman's question in Towels, Brushes, & Accessories
It has been a few years ago. Almost all my towels are from Adams. They are roughly 16x12. (I didn't want to pull out my dirty tape measure and touch the towels). They are nice towels and don't get all wavy like the green ones when you wash them. It looks like it is some sort of tag that was torn off and they are in the same distance from the edge and the same textured side on both towels.. I could be wrong though.
