  1. Its really hard to get a good pic even with my rebel t3i.
  2. I'm hoping someone can help me with this issue i'm having with my cars paint. I've had this issue for awhile, and ill think I've fixed it, but then it comes back. The paint looks like it has terrible water etchings everywhere. So, i polished it out, and the paint would look great, with no scratches, swirls, or water etchings. So of course after I finished polishing it, i waxed it. Then a couple days later I'm looking at the hood(where the water etchings are the worst) and they are all back again, like I never polished them out. During that time it was never in the rain, or even out in the sun for long, since at the moment it sits in the garage. It is 16 year old paint, but the paint looks flawless for its age. I have this same issue with other panels on the car, but they are not near as bad as the hood. I just polished the hood and got all the etchings out and put 2 coats of quick sealant, so we'll see what happens. I just think it is the strangest thing ever. Its like its coming up under the paint, but I can polish it out every time.
  3. If you lived closer to Texas, I'd be very interested in that SS. Glad to see there are still nice 4th gens out there!
  4. As a fellow 4th Gen F-Body owner, I love that car!
  5. I'm wanting a good at home pressure washer that will be strictly for washing cars. So for you that have one, what would you suggest? Gas or electric? This will be my first pressure washer, so I'd like to spend my money right the first time.
  6. Great choice of wheels. Makes the car look so much better!
  7. Mine does the same thing, as well as the metal polishes. They seem to still work after I've shaken them up.
  8. I see that it's still in the store, but I can't put it in my cart. I click on add to cart and it gives me a weird message.
  9. Mook, is there anything you'd cover up or be cautious about while cleaning this engine bay?
  10. I've never known about the forum discount either, and I've made about 4 big orders. Is it just automatically applied to your order, or do you have to put a specific code in on that order?
  11. Finally been getting some rain here in Texas, we need it!
  12. Yeah, I was pretty shocked by the results.
  13. I was off today, and had nothing to do, so I thought I'd mess around with the old polishes before the new ones come out on my neglected sail panels. I used severe swirl and haze remover on the orange applicatior, and then followed that up with fine machine polish on the blue applicator. All I did was one pass with each. The little defect you see in the picture is an egg marking from when the car got egged back in high school. I can't wait for the new polishes, even though the old still produced great results!
  14. I just finished correcting my hood on my trans am and had the same problem. The weird thing is I don't know how the etching happened because I did have a coat of super sealant on. The worst water etching I've ever seen. After about 2 passes of severe swirl remover, I saw no change. I ended up using a compound and it all came out in just one pass.
  15. I wish my trans am looked that good! I do have a question if you dont mind me asking. How did you attack the sideskirts? When I tried correcting them on my trans am, I couldnt get the 4 inch pads to spin or to work effectively on that area.
  16. I'd definetly pay you every dollar I have to make my trans am look that good. Great work man!
  17. I'd like to see new pads as well. Ones in more sizes, and different styles. I know I can get them from other companies, but I am loyal to Adams.
  18. My back always says no, but my OCD always says yes.
  19. How do you like the look with the side moldings off? I have a 98 trans am, and have always considered taking them off since they are pretty faded, and don't match the paint very well.

  21. I know you use revive by hand, but is there a way to use it with a machine?
  22. Thanks for all the input guys. So I don't use it before polish, only after?
  23. I know what it is, and why you are suppose to do it, but I just have a couple questions about the process. First of all, is 70% enough? Whats the most effective way to use it? Like spray from a bottle and wipe off? I also dont know what towel I should use for it. My intentions are to do a IPA wipedown before and after polish, but I could be wrong. Any info would be appreciated!
