Hi Ron, I'm in West Jefferson,NC 336 408 4433 richardk@skybest.com

Great job on the video.

Well said Adam. I agree 100%. Richard

You nailed it Rich. Richard

Really Chris? LOL.

Chris is absolutely right. You will be in for a pleasant surprise. Welcome back. Richard

I wash, dry, clay, Paint Correcting Polish, Paint Finishing Polish, Brilliant Glaze followed by Buttery Wax, Americana or Patriot Wax. I don't use alcohol on my cars. Period! Richard Kashinsky

You may never be the same. Richard Kashinsky

Hello Kevin and Tonya, I've seen this Camaro and it's fantastic. The Gen5 club is a great group. Richard Kashinsky

Welcome to the Forum from a former Coconut Grove resident. Richard Kashinsky

Hi Emir, Funny you should ask. I'm in the process of completing a detail on my black C 7 which I picked up from the dealer last Friday. My instructions to the dealer were don't touch the car. I drove home and started working early the next morning. The car was dirty, had two large sap drops and water spots everywhere. I washed and clayed the entire car at Adams suggestion. I'm glad I did. Next I used the Finishing Polish with the white foam pad. I always like to go less aggressive to more aggressive if needed. The Finishing Polish and white pad worked great. The second step was Brilliant Glaze followed by a coat of Patriot Wax. I know Patriot Wax is expensive, but after using it the very first time I decided it was a bargain considering the incredible results. I will post pics as soon as I learn ( I know you're laughing Adam) how to do that. Yesterday I polished the chrome wheels. I removed the polish, gave it a shot of Detail Spray to remove any remaining polish residue and followed that with a coat of Brilliant Glaze. The results are stunning.Tomorrow I'll do the red interior. All the best with your new Corvette Emir.

Hey Greg, Rich thinks he's old. LOL. Richard

I use the Adam's Detail Cart and love it!

As Adam's North Carolina Distributor and East Coast Events Coordinator I conduct over a dozen car care clinics a year. I have two Adam's Detailing Bags, one stuffed full of product topped off with towels and applicators and the other bag holds my PC and Flex along with an extension cord and pads. The bags are really durable and when they get dirty I hit them with a little APC. Richard

I found Adam's products in 2007 at the Concorso Italiano on the Monterey Peninsula. I was invited by a friend to help him prepair his 1974 BMW 3.5 CSI to show. He is a member of a California BMW club and several clubs were participating. We arrived at the show at at 7:15 AM to get a good spot. When we arrived Mike open the trunk and took out Adam's Detail Spray and we went to work. As other club members arrived, 16 in all, every single member was using Adam's products. The next day I went to the Historic races at Laguna Seca and bought a clay bar, Revive Polish, Buttery Wax, Detail Spray, Car Wash and two microfiber towels. I've never looked back. I believe in these products so much and I'm so certain these are the best care care products available that when my wife and I moved from Monterey, CA to West Jefferson, NC I called Adam and asked if I could be his North Carolina distributor.

I use the Adam's Great White Drying Towel also. I've never use a drying blade.

IMPORTANT THINGS TO CONSIDER<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Keep your washing, polishing and waxing gear in a dirt and dust free place. After you wash, dry and fold put them in large freezer bags or plastic containers until you are ready to use them again. Wash towels and microfiber applicating pads in a mild laundry detergent without bleach or fabric softener. Dry them on a low temperature setting and don’t use anti cling papers or the like. Application pads and sponges as well as random orbital polishing pads can be cleaned with Adam’s All Purpose Cleaner.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Consider buying a folding table or saw horses and a hollow core door slab for a clean setup area/workstation. Cover which ever you use with red carpenters paper for a completely clean work surface. This clean work area is to keep debris from imbedding itself in polishing and waxing pads as well as your micro fiber towels.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> WASHING PREP AND WASHING<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 1. Sweep the garage a few hours before washing your car. Give the dust a chance to settle.<o:p></o:p> 2. Wash the bucket and grit guard. Use a second bucket for your wheels. Use a two bucket system and separate wash mitts.<o:p></o:p> 3. If you are wearing a belt triple fold a micro fiber towel and loop it over your belt buckle.<o:p></o:p> 4. Rinse your wash mitt thoroughly before putting it in the wash bucket.<o:p></o:p> 5. Have your drying towel and detail spray in easy reach. <o:p></o:p> 6. Now is the time to spray Adams All Purpose cleaner in your wheel wells and let it set for a few minutes.<o:p></o:p> 7. Rinse your car off with a reasonable amount of pressure to remove as much dirt and grime as possible. <o:p></o:p> 8. Use a wash gun such as the Gilmore Foamaster 2. The one with the brass fittings costs about $52.00. <o:p></o:p> 9. Foam your car, the wheels and the wheel wells thoroughly and let it sit for about 2 to 3 minutes. Rinse it off. This will remove a lot of dirt and further reduce the chances of adding swirl marks to the car.<o:p></o:p> 10. With the wash mitt thoroughly soaked begin washing from top to bottom and in a north to south/front to back direction. Don’t go east to west or in circles. Don’t press on the wash mitt. Glide it over the surface doing one panel at a time. Once you complete a panel, and this is important, rinse the wash mitt with the hose and wring it out BEFORE placing it back in the bucket. You want to keep your wash mitt and wash water as clean as possible. Place the wash mitt in the bucket, rub over the grit guard, flip it over and do the same to the other side. If any dirt is left on the mitt hopefully the grit guard will remove it. Go back and rinse the panel you just washed. Repeat the process for each panel.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> DRYING AND THINKING “NO SWIRL MARKS.”<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> By the time you finish washing your car crud has already fallen on the surface. I define crud as anything that has fallen on the surface of your car that may cause fine scratches in the clear coat. Grab the quick detailer and the drying towel, spray the QD liberally on the wet surface and then begin drying. Don’t press down on the towel. Let it glide over the surface and pick up the water. Repeat the process over and over until the car is dry. When you inspect the car after you dry it and look for water drips and spots use the QD before drying these spots and drips. This process will minimize the chances of adding fine scratches and swirl marks to your cars clearcoat.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Unfolding a table, covering it with carpenter’s paper, preparing the bucket and wash mitt and sudsing your car will add about an additional 10 minutes to the wash cycle. This beats spending hours trying to remove swirl marks during the polishing cycle.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> WASHING WHEELS<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> This is where the second bucket comes in. Pour the water from the car wash bucket to the wheel bucket. The water will look clean since you’ve rinsed your wash mitt after each use. Use a separate wash mitt to avoid any possibility cross contamination such as getting brake dust on your car.

:help:Hi Jason, I discovered Adams Products when a friend of mine invited me to the 2007 Concorso Italiano on the Monterey Peninsula where he was showing one of his very rare BMW's. We were among the first to arrive and, as the other BMW Club members arrived, every single participant took a bottle of Adams QD out of the trunk and started working on his car. The next day I was at Laguna Seca where a dealer was selling Adams products. I bought the car wash, a clay bar, Revive and Fine Machine Polish, Swirl and Haze Remover, Buttery Wax and Machine SuperWax, Quick Detailer, VRT, Brilliant Spray Glaze, Leather Conditioner, Metal Polish, three micro fiber towels, and three applicators. I still have the receipt from the dealer. The following weekend I detailed my '95 black on black Supra. I washed, clayed, polished and waxed using the Swirl and Haze Remover, and Fine Machine Polish and Machine SuperWax. The results were fantastic. The Super MachineWax (a sealant) gave a better shine than anything, including paste wax, I'd used in the past. I did the interior and the wheels with equally great results. I was totally impressed with Adams products. When my wife and I decided to move to West Jefferson, North Carolina I saw that there was no distributor for Adams Products in the state. I called Adam and asked if I could be his distributor in NC. Adam hired me. Adam is a great guy and, with intelligence and hard work, is living the American Dream. Jason, Ashley and the rest of the team at Adams are simply the best. Richard Kashinsky North Carolina Distributor
