Welcome to the forum!

Great looking truck!

Those wheels came out excellent! What exactly did you use on them?

Thanks for the replies... Ordie, I'm on a couple other detailing forums too but just browse to figure out what I'm doing wrong. I believe I'm all set now and can clean a car with decent results (by no means a pro of any kind). Redbeard, the car is from Backdraft Racing which is more of a "replica" company like the Superformance (both originate from South Africa). It's then sent here for completion which is engine/trans+options. I had Vintage Motorsports in Ct. do the build a bit over a year ago (it's 1109 on their site in the gallery). The color is 2012 Ford Race Red. The car itself is a couple inches longer in wheelbase than the original to help for handling. It's got full coil over suspension in the front, and a fully adjustable BMW 3 series IRS with 3.15's. The motor is a dart block 351w that is stroked to a 427 making 482rwhp/540rwtq. That's backed by a TKO-600. The car itself, with fuel, is 2434 pounds with a 47/53 rear bias. The 17" powdercoated knockoffs have NT05's, 255 front, 315 rear. And another freshly waxed picture with the new Grand Cherokee in the reflection. I sealed that one with a different product about a month ago, maybe I'll try the wax on it next.

It was raining/wet so not the best pictures, but the garage smell alone was worth it. I switched from another similar product and while I can't say it's worlds better, it's just as good, but the application and cleanup is a bit easier. I'll definitely be sticking with Adams.

Thanks for the warm welcome! JBlack, thanks for the nice pictures, I can't seem to take good pictures of RED (it's 2012 ford race red) out in the sun, as they always turn out pink/magenta or orange, never the red that it is in person. Eric, I will need a couple more products very soon, but just stupid little stuff (detail spray and clay bar), so I'll be in touch. And thanks again it was good seeing you all.

I'm a long time lurker but decided to finally join up now that I'm starting to actually enjoy keeping a car clean. Steve

Thanks for putting on the clinic! I learned a couple nice tricks, restocked some products and got to check out a whole bunch of great cars!
