Here’s my list. I started off with stuff from the land of the rising sun, did some European rides for a while, now all domestic. A lot of fun was had with stuff on this list, and probably more money than I wish to think about. And yes, I had a Vega fetish for a while.

Thanks all. She looks totally different without the hardtop. Bruce

Took the top of our '64 Corvette for an All GM Car Show here in the Valley. A little about the car: we're the second owners. 30 year old repaint. There is so much clear in gold it actually came back pretty good. Lots of polishing, plus Brilliant Glaze and she looks amazing. We've done a fair amount to her over the 2-1/2 years we've owned her, but she is a driver. I've kept her pretty much the way the original owner did, it worked for her for 48 years! The original owner was a woman who ordered her new in 1963, and she was actually supposed to be a '63, but came in as a '64. Power steering, power brakes, power windows, powerglide trans, soft top delete. Anyhow, for today's show we took her top off. The old girl rewarded us with a First Place Corvette (one class for all Corvettes) trophy, and Peoples Choice! Tracy only took one picture today, the other picture is an older side view. At least 5 other cars that won were all Adam's users! Bruce

Welcome Tony. Lots of great info here. Let's see some pics of the truck. Bruce

Looks good and thorough write up too.

Another thumbs up for the Ducati, and a request to see the Corvette and others hiding in the background.

True (and correct) The next person attended one or more car shows this weekend.

Great looking C5, you are correct, very rare color. Bruce

Welcome Fred. You will really enjoy the Cyclo and the Adam's products, they are a great combination. Congrats. Bruce

That color looks good with the black wheels. Bruce

True, Badges, we don't need no stinkin' badges. The next person is thinking about trading (buying / selling / trade) vehicles.

Very cool, congrats! Bruce

They will just touch as they rotate, but should not create fuzz. Like Jamey said, make sure they are centerd. Are you using the Adam's pads? Bruce

Yep, copper, brass, magnesium, CRES, aluminum... all of the above.

Hey Cody, Welcome. I spent quite a bit of time back in Greenville, love that place. Anyhow, jump in with both feet, buy a Cyclo and polish the truck yourself. We'll be here to help with any issues you have along the way. Bruce

Welcome. Looking forward to seeing more of your work! Bruce

Adam & all the team, Thanks for the update, and glad to see the situation is getting back under control. Like others, we appreciate your honesty in explaining and addressing the situation. Thanks all. Hope we see you soon. Bruce

A few years back I re did my garage and had Garage Envy do the floor. It had held up fantastically well, and still looks new. A little pricey, but glad I did it. Unfortunately that doesn't answer your question about your slab, or DIY kits, but it does look great. Also, that's my mom's 1980 Chevy Citation.

Congrats!

Sounds good. I agree, leave the duster at home, use BG and Detail Spray instaed. Also, give the tires a wipe down when you get there. I try and clean out the treads too, and maybe some undercarriage spray to freshen that area. Best of luck. Bruce

Welcome Brian. Agreed, nice truck and Adam's collection. Bruce

I'm not sure I'm clear, you did an SUV in an hour? Or did each panel take an hour? It seems like sense you have used the old system you woulfd be familiar with teh process, so I'm not sure what is causing your issue. I can say I have been using the new system for a while and have no issues. A few more details, and pictures would help, What machine are you using, PC, Flex, Cyclo? Is the product too thick? Use less Is the product too oily? Work it longer Is the product just subborn? Try a little Detail Spray We'll get you through it.

You could use the red or black pads for applying MP with a polisher, or the blue pads with a Cyclo. However, is the Airstream bare aluminum, or do they clear anodize? Test a small inconspicuous area first. That will be a task to finish Bruce

Echoing all the comments above. Wow that paint was hammered, and nice turn around, especially for a quickie. Bruce

Gorgeous truck! Welcome to the forum. Bruce
