  1. Cool site, glad to be a 'Founding Member'. Love the products too!
  2. This thread is rated all toooooo :lol::lol::lol:
  3. Thanks! Sometimes I can't believe it's mine.
  4. Adam: Here is a link to a photo album that I put together for friends and family that shows our tour of the ARI sleeper plant and pictures of the truck and inside of the sleeper. http://www1.snapfish.com/thumbnailshare/AlbumID=259784406/a=140619702_140619702/t_=140619702 Thanks, David

  6. Bluezey: I did the Z-Fest last year. For me it was the perfect event. One day of HPDE at Putnam Park and another day at the Drag Strip and yet another afternoon of Autocross. Add in all the other social stuff and meeting up with the people from the ZO6 Vette forum it was a great event!
  7. Adam: Thanks for the quick reply. This might be 'new ground' and maybe a challenge. I drive (semi) truck for a living. I just bought a new Kenworth with a custom sleeper. (See my album for pictures). I have always tried to keep my trucks looking nice. As you might imagine this is a big, pun intended, job. In the summer I have to deal with bugs and the winter salt and road chemicals. I use Blue Beacon truck washes most of the times. They use a lot of chemicals in their washes. Mostly what they call 'brightener' for cleaning/washing. Brightener is just a friendly name for acid, yes acid it is something that works for big trucks. I usually always have them add 'hot wax' after the wash, it seems to help with the shine. On past trucks I have usually used a 'cleaner wax' as many times during the year I can. This might only be 1 or 2 times a year. The major problem I have run into is the front wind faring. This area gets lots and lots of bugs and it might be a couple of weeks between washes. The truck wash will do a desent job of getting bugs off, but there is always some guts,residue,that always gets left behind and ends up leaving stains in the paint. This new truck will be especially bad with the front of the sleeper that is above the cab. I am looking for the best possible protection,(wax,polish) that is available and hold up. As you might imagine I won't be able to clean, wax, polish every week. Do you think your Machine SuperWax is the best choice? There is also a lot of polished aluminum,(wheels and fuel tanks) and stanless on this truck. Polished aluminum is always a challenge to keep looking nice. The truck stops are full of different wheel polishes. I've never found anything that worked that well. I might try your metal polishes. Thanks.
  8. OK My understanding is the Machine Super Wax is a super duper sealant? While your Buttery Wax is more of a wax? When would you choose the Machine Super Wax over the Buttery Wax or the other way around? You really would not want to (or need to) use both would you?
  9. Did someone mention ATV's? This is my 'Vette Girl' and me exploring the Amazon Basin on an ATV trip in Bolivia. http://adamsforums.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=127&stc=1&d=1227310409
  10. Good lQQking truck, I wish I could build build something like that!
  11. Thanks Adam for the offer, now don't say that if you don't mean it. I get paid to travel all over the country and I might just end up at your door step. I know I'll be visiting your warehouse in California,as I do get out that way once in a while. I wish my Dad was still around, he's been gone 3 years now, he was always buying/trying new car cleaning products. I'm sure he would have been as impressed with your line of products as I am.
  12. Nice looking 'Tang. Love what you did under the hood!
  13. WOW! Those 'organized' pic's are just way too cool.
  14. Adam: Brings back memories, my Dad had a 61 Vette. White, base motor, 3 speed. He use to take my best friend and me to the slot car racing track in it. We thought we were really big shots pulling into the parking lot in front of all our friends. Over the years he 'Hot Roded' it by puting a built up 350 c.i. and a 4-speed in it. He sold it when I was 16, (he never did let me drive it), for $1,500. That was a few years before they sky rocketed in value. The guy that bought it was later killed in a car wreck,(not in the Vette). His brother ended up with the car and refused to sell it even though it was sitting on blocks and rotting away. Years and years later my Dad got a call from someone who had the car and was looking for the orginal motor. It was long gone by then. Back in those early days I never would have dreamed I'd ever own a Corvette...... I've got a 69 BB Convertable and a 01 ZO6 and my wife drives a 95 coupe. I think you're doing the right thing by making a 'driver' out of your car and not some museum piece. Get er done... and see some pictures.
  15. ZO6 Vette.com Bought my first products so I could enter your photo contest. One of these days I'm going to win!
  16. Adam: My 2cents. I don't want to see anything from you with a 'made in China' tag on it. I'd pay double the cost for something HIGH QUALITY and give it a 'Life Time' warranty.
  17. I like the idea of a high quality garden type sprayer, pump it up once and use it with whatever product you want, undercarriage spray for example, walk around the car and spray under wheel wells without bending over. Make it about 1.2 gallons. so you can use a full gallon when the sprayer gets low, but not out.
