  1. Car came out great. BMW clear is definitely a hard clear. My experience with GM clear is that it's relatively hard too, but not nearly as hard as BMW clear. My step-dad has a M6 in Black Sapphire Metallic that we need to get polished.
  2. I always wipe the surface off where the filter seals to. This ensures that the gasket isn't still on there.
  3. No, they don't come with them. I never use the 2 I have anyway. I just pour directly from the gallon to the 16oz bottle.
  4. I'm a tax accountant at one of the top 10 largest CPA firms dealing mainly with banks and financial institutions.
  5. You weren't seeing things, there were Adam's products.
  6. The DWC will degrade the protectant on the wheels. However, if you have your wheels sealed and protected well, a majority of the brake dust should come off with just water from a hose. I personally don't use DWC. 1) because I don't have brakes that put off enough dust to warrant it and 2) it does degrade the protectant. I still have GWC, which I really like. However, CS mixed in a 36oz bottle with a foaming sprayer seems to work great as well. DWC has its place, just not in my arsenal with my current vehicles.
  7. Invest in some MF pads for the Rupes and then comment on the results. Makes quick work of swirls. It does tend to generate some heat though.
  8. Might have to try a different aerosol sealant that's on the market now that QS has been discontinued. Only complaint I had about QS was that it always gave me a headache, no matter how well ventilated the area was.
  9. Started out using Mother's and Meg's when I was an ignorant, young teenager. Then I started watching detailing videos, specifically Junkman's videos when he was still representing Adam's, and I decided to try them out. Now that I'm a sophisticated, well-educated 24 year old I have mainly all Adam's products. I have a few from a couple other companies, but I started out with the essentials kit from Adam's and haven't looked back.
  10. That's unfortunate. QS was so nice to have for wheels. Caused major headaches if not outside though. Good thing I have a can left still. Should last me awhile!
  11. Patriot wax. Or a special vehicle. Otherwise I'll grab a single soft or borderless blue/orange for wax and polish removal.
  12. I have all 3. Haha. I started with the PC, but it just took way too much time to get the results I wanted, which caused more stress on my body from the vibration. So, I updraded to the Rupes 21, which is awesome at quick correction. Unfortunately, it does not perform well in small locations and curves. That is when Adam's started carrying and selling the Cyclo which was introduced during a 15% off sale, so it was only logical I buy a 3rd polisher. Lol. Honestly, unless I'm working on a vehicle that has a lot of large, flat panels, I will grab the Cyclo. It's so versatile and is well balanced. It won't walk around on you and it's easy to control. There is little to no vibration. It's a great all around machine. So, unless you want to continue to use the PC with the 4" pads for smaller locations, I would go with the Cyclo. I like the Rupes as well, especially for correction power, but I rarely pull it out because of the Cyclos versatility.
  13. In the winter, it might go the entire winter not being hand washed. I'll spray it off periodically when the roads are dry. During the spring, summer, and fall. Usually once every 2 weeks depending on the weather.
  14. Too bad it's a 3 1/2 hour drive, otherwise I would be there...
