You will be fine using it on those surfaces.  Think of this as another form of a paint coating.  The benefit of graphene is it is less prone to water spotting than a ceramic coating.  For a daily driver or garage queen, a paint coating will work just fine on wheels.  

As they say, timing is everything.  Yesterday I spent a good part of the day paint correcting our new Corvette C8.  My goal was to complete the paint correction, then in a week the Xpel would be applied and then I would apply Adams Ceramic Paint Coating.  I have used the CC plenty of times before so I feel comfortable using the paint, trim and wheel coatings.
 
 While working on the paint correcting, I wanted to check on the use of an Adams product so went on their website and of course, there was the advertising of the new Graphene Ceramic Coating.  I have read about this coating about a year ago and was very interested but never used it.  Of course, as a good Adams customer, I ordered it. Can anyone who is familiar with graphene share their knowledge.  Can it be used on top of the Xpel PP? What are the benefits of Adams Graphene vs. Adams Coatings?  Is the graphene as good on the wheels as the Adams Wheel Ceramic coatings?  Any info would be helpful since I now am planning to use the AGC on the new C8 Corvette.  Thank you. 

I said it before and I will say it over and over again, Adams Polishes's customer service is second to non. Any issue I need3e resolution to was always fixed immediately and with a "Sorry" and we moved on. I will say, this did not happen often but things do happen, and some of those times it was my error. The customer service department still apologized which was not necessary. This, along with the fantastic products and excellent advise on the forum has turned me into a repeat customer that will last long time. Also, my detail knowledge base has grown 1000% with the help of Adam, Ashley, Steve and before Jason. No question was a bad question with them. Basically, they are just good people. Thanks Adams Team!!!:thumbsup:

Dang I prefer the matte look but I have nearly a gallon of the old stuff.
 
What does that new paste look like?

I have ALL of Adams products going back 12-13 years.  Colors get confusing when you are just throwing the bull.

I use the Adams Rubber and Mat liner cleaner.  Much, much better than what WeatherTech sells for cleaning although I did go over to the dark side and bought my first non Adams products in over 13 years.  I purchased WeatherTech's Mat and Liner Protection product.  It works good and your shoes do not slip when feet are on the floor.  Sorry Adam.  I owe you a beer.

I have did something similar, not once, not twice but three times with other Adams Products.  I once All Purposed one of my older cars.  Now that was a paint correction.

You won't be disappointed with the SK purchase.  It is a great product.

To all Adams loyalists. In the start of this thread I was venting small frustration. I'm as busy as the next guy when it comes to the extra time to make a phone call. I used this forum to air my issue. I missed a call today from Colorado which I was certain was a telemarketer. After seeing there was a voicemail I listened to it. It was Dan calling in person to apologize for my troubles and offer a solution. I will be calling back, and when I do I will be placing a very good size order to replace some things, and try some new products. This customer service, and the performance of the products is exactly why I can spend my money anywhere, but only choose to spend it here. Well done Adams!!!!!

Nice garage and collection of cars.  What tile mfg. did you go with for your garage floor?  Also, finally had our 15 ZF1 out today. After seeing the Daytona 500 I needed my Vette fix.

Other than vehicles, use mine for blowing out the garage, blow drying my k&n filter after washing (probably not recommended by k&n but I was in a hurry for the filter to dry and lightly blew the excess water out, worked great to dry it quicker). Also I have used it on the interior, works great if u have a lot of dog hair on the seats, open all doors and just watch the hair and debris fly everywhere! Saves a lot of time vacuuming

My wife uses mine to blow the excess hair out of our 3 German Shepherds.  She was ok with the price I paid when she found a use for it too.  A lot faster and more efficient than brushing.  

Did anybody notice @kevdogg of "Bitchin Rides" holding a bottle of Adams Detail Spray when he and Dave of Kindig-it Designs drove their car up for auction onto the stage.  I also noticed they use the product throughout their TV shows.  Great car building show and car builder using a great detailing product.   

Something like this? 

Great job.  Everything works fine on my Mac.  Love the clear, simple descriptions and pictures.  Very user friendly.  Keep up the good work.

Best of luck Dylan.

How dirty of a car will this work on?  I have a Black ZL1, and live in Pittsburgh and drive it daily.  Will it safely clean a car that's trashed with road salt and grime?  Currently, I wash it outside wearing cold water dive gloves(scuba gear) and then dry it in my semi-heated garage.  You know how easy it is to screw up black, but this would be much better if it will safely clear all the grit without scratching.  And why used double soft towels rather than the wash pads?  You input will be appreciated, as always.

Great story and the car looks fantastic, not to mention the background.  Congratulations on the purchase.

Thanks for all the ideas.  It will be helpful.

I tried this and other recommendations to my question.  It worked great with great results from my weekend detailing. The black Volvo looks fantastic, now tape lines or white residue in the gaps.  Thanks to everyone.

Hi and Welcome Tim.  Another Adams fan from Allentown.

Ok, the story is like this.  I have been complaining to Adams that I miss the instant chat we used to have with Ashley.  Yes, it is there sometimes but my luck, not when I am looking for it.  Sending an e-mail just doesn't work all the time.  Since I am a Finance guy, my questions are not detailing savy enough to have my question answered based on my topic.  So, this past week I spent some times trying to get answers because I was planning to detail my wife's black Volvo on Saturday.  This will be my last Saturday I will not be working for a long time and I wanted to get the paint protection needed for the upcoming weekend.  I also called Adams and did get things cleared up. Unfortunately for the Adams employees, many at Adams knew I was planning to detail this weekend due to my frequent question .  Most at Adams also knew I place an order over Labor Day since I wanted to use the new two step paint correction system along with the Quick Detail and the Patriot Was #61 of 250. Being a long time customer of Adams, I could not wait to use all the new Adams products.  
Well, I left work early on Friday to come home and begin the cleanup and taping project along with claying. When I arrived home, the Adams package was waiting for me, fantastic.  I opened the box, went through everything I ordered but something was missing.  Checked again, nope, missing the new Paint Finishing Polish.  In the box was a note that it is on back order.  Needless to say, I was not happy.  Immediately I sent an e-mal to Adams telling them how disappointed I was that I was not alerted.  The order could not be seen on there website so I was unable to see this for myself.  Well, my plan was to go back to some older product which is not bad at all but I was looking forward to the new items.  In about an hour, I received an e-mail from Matt saying they just received a new shipment of the Paint Finishing Polish and they sent it out next day, Saturday, delivery using FedEx.  I should receive it by noon. Unbelievable.  Well, I started the detailing project about 9 am and at 10:15 am, a Fed Ex truck shows up, delivers the product and I did get the opportunity to use the new Adams products after all. (See attached picture for proof of delivery) . Amazing customer service and I would like to thank everyone at Adams for keeping me a satisfied customer.  I HOPE that as Adams Polishes does grow, they do not lose that personal touch with customers and especially the long-term customers.  Heck, I even used my white gloves purchased from Adams years ago to present the detailed Volvo to my wife. Yep, they sold them years back. Again, thanks to the ADAMS gang. The car looks amazing.  Best job yet.
