    Antv20 reacted to Adam in Quick Sealant??   
    Friends, indeed, the Quick Sealant won't pass the new VOC laws for 2016.  The propellant of the aerosol is mainly the issue here, and we've been playing with the H20 Guard and Gloss, and the Liquid Paint Sealant, as replacements.  Both work as well, and shed water, bugs, and brake dust.  
     
    It's the ease of use that the aerosol gives, that you will miss.  We didn't sell nearly enough Quick Sealant to run another batch.  (The last run lasted nearly 2 1/2 years.)
     
    We will make a formal announcement soon, but for now, if you see some QS, and love this stuff, BUY IT!

    Antv20 reacted to Dylan@RUPES in Rupes LHR21 Mark II   
    We have some of the first production units in house here, for training and other purposes, but they won't be at the event Saturday. 
    I'm sure Jason and I can answer some basic questions about the Mark II initiative, but the bulk of the specifics are under wraps until SEMA for our distribution network and will slowly trickle out from there. 
     
    Looking forward to seeing everyone Saturday. Should be a good time and the weather cleared up for us!

    Antv20 reacted to Dan@Adams in Can someone explain this to me??   
    The other guys already kinda beat me to it, but as promised, here are some detailed descriptions and uses for each towel. Let me know if you have any other questions
     
    Adam's Single Soft Towel
    The Adam's Single Soft Towel is a premium 16"x16" microfiber towel that is excellent for many exterior uses on your vehicle. It works great for wiping down a vehicle with Detail Spray, you can use it to remove polish, sealant, and wax residue, and you can use them for Rinseless Washes and for applying H2O Guard & Gloss. It is half the thickness of the Double Soft Towel, which allows you to better feel the surface underneath your hand as you are buffing away wax and polish. It also has a black stitched border to help distinguish it from the Double Soft.
     
    Adam's Double Soft Towel
    The Double Soft Towel is the thickest and softest towel offered by Adam's. It is twice the thickness of the Single Soft Towel and also the same 16"x16" size. It can be used for all of the same applications as the Single Soft Towel, but I especially like them for a Detail Spray wipe-down at a car show or for using them with Rinseless Wash in the 5 gallon Wash Bucket - because they are twice as thick, they will hold more Rinseless solution and provide a safe and effective way to perform a rinseless wash of your vehicle. These towels are seriously soft, to truly pamper your pride and joy show cars, and every time I show one to someone new at an event, they are amazed at the quality and softness of the towel.
     
    Adam's Borderless Gray Towel
    The Borderless Gray Towel is a super plush microfiber towel similar to the Single Soft Towel, except that it has no satin or stitched border - just nice soft microfiber from edge to edge. It can be used for all of the same applications as the Single Soft and Double Soft Towels, but I like to use them with H2O Guard & Gloss. Since they are dyed gray, they are color-coded to HGG and help me to keep my towels organized. Plus, since H2O Guard & Gloss can cause some slight staining to the white Single Soft and Double Soft Towels, this is a way to keep those towels from staining if that bothers you (the staining does not decrease their effectiveness in any way).
     
    Adam's Edgeless Utility Towel
    The Edgeless Utility Towels are a great all purpose microfiber detailing towel. They're designed for the dirtier jobs that you wouldn't want to use your nice plush towels on. They're great for use with Total Interior Detailer to clean plastic and vinyl door panels, dashboards, door jambs, door sill plates, and seats, and they can be used to clean up the engine bay, polish chrome exhaust tips, and so on. They are an edgeless design similar to the Borderless Gray Towel, but rather than being a plush microfiber, they have a tight weave, short fiber design that is great for scrubbing carpets as well.
     
    Adam's Great White Drying Towel
    As the name implies, this towel is designed specifically for drying your vehicle in a safe and effortless manner. The waffle weave pattern is soft and absorbent and will not scratch or leave any swirl marks or streaks while you dry. I love these towels. They make drying a vehicle much more enjoyable and less of a stressful situation worrying about marking up that perfect finish.

    Adam's Waterless Wash Towel
    The Waterless Wash Towel is a waffle weave towel similar to the Great White Drying Towel, but in a smaller 16"x24" size designed specifically to be used with Adam's Waterless Wash. The waffle weave texture allows you to clean a slightly dirty vehicle without introducing new scratches or swirls, and the towels are color-coded blue to match all of our other car washing products. Some of our forum members even prefer to use them with Detail Spray as well.
    ​​
    Adam's Glass Cleaning Towel
    The Glass Cleaning Towel is a tight, flat microfiber ​weave with a nap designed to clean and buff windows and other glass to give streak free results when used with Adam's Glass Cleaner. These towels really do work great for me and much better than other options I've used in the past. They are 16"x16" in size like many of our other towels, which allows you to fold them up into quarter sections for plenty of cleaning surfaces before they get completely soiled and need to be washed.
     
    Hope that wasn't too much to read and I hope it helps  ​

    Antv20 reacted to Ricky Bobby in Using soap for clay lube- Bad for clay?   
    I still have yet to see empirical proof on my many details that the alternative methods of lubrication that are mentioned are somehow not cleaning the surface "as well" and that Detail Spray in and of itself is a superior and the only lubrication one should ever use.
     
    We all use what we like and like to share ideas to improve efficiency. If it's your choice of lube, that is great and you can say that, but don't give false information that implies using Waterless, a dilution of Rinseless wash, or a soapy bucket of suds is somehow not decontaminating the surface effectively.
     
    Another great method of claying which will take care of contaminants is incorporating it into your Rinseless washing routine. After you clean your panels with a soaked towel the surface will be slick and wet, you can clay the panel then, and before drying.

    I'm so sorry for the issue with the Patriot Wax packaging.  It should have definitely showed up in a much better condition. If you private message me, I will get you taken care of.  
     
    It sounds like it may have been in extreme heat during shipping and warped the metal. 
     
    Normally the container is really easy to open, close, and it stores well, especially in the refrigerator.

    It's a sad day at Adam's Polishes.  Adam's refrigerator that he bought for his first warehouse has died.  It was a good fridge and it kept the beer cold for a long time.  We are saving the freezer door on it thought because it has an awesome piece of our history on it, our first logo.  We'll be taking off the door and putting it in the entrance of our our warehouse with some other piece of our history as well.  So, make sure when you stop by the headquarters to look out for the original freezer/fridge door.
     
    Have a good day everyone and enjoy the 3 day weekend.  Remember our Labor Day sale ends tonight at midnight so make sure you take advantage of some great deals.  Enjoy the video!

    Antv20 reacted to Adam in Apology: Dispenser Pumps on Brilliant Glaze STINK!   
    Friends, I failed to test the red dispenser pumps on the Brilliant Glaze, Paint Correcting Polish, and Metal Polishes.  We started sending bottles out with them installed anyway.  Fact is, they work terribly.  Awfully. Bad.  And I'm not overstating this performance failure.  These caps are a BAD fit for several products, and I owe you an apology for sending out a product without testing the method that dispenses it.
     
    The pumps work okay with some products, like VRT, Leather Conditioner, Shampoo,  Buttery Wax, Liquid Paint Sealant, and Rinseless Wash.  (Some hate the pumps altogether, and I can understand that.)
     
    I apologize for not spending more time testing these pumps.   We don't often have failures of this level, and this was a big one. I blew it, and I'm sorry to have made your detailing experience less awesome.
     
    So, now it's time to make it right.  Here is a link to the dispenser caps, which have an official price of $0.99 for 3 caps, which includes shipping. 
     
    http://adamspolishes.com/adam-s-new-dispensar-pull-cap.html?___SID=U
     
    HOWEVER:  If you have any product with a pump, and don't like the way it performs, we will send you replacement push-pull dispenser caps, FREE! 
     
    Kindly use the code, "CAPS" which will make the purchase free. 
     
    Have thoughts on this?  Post away!   Care to email me personally on this?  Adam@AdamsPolishes.com
     
    Thanks, I again apologize, and appreciate your loyalty.

    Antv20 reacted to Ricky Bobby in Feedback on New Car Shampoo......   
    The shampoo did not strip the wax whatsoever.
     
    However, Adam's Car Shampoo does not have a wax additive in it so it is not going to be a "gloss enhancing" or "wash n wax" shampoo in one step.  If you want slick feel after the wash and while the car is wet, mist the Detail Spray on the surface as you are drying for a streak free finish and a slick feel.
     
    Sounds like you are due for another coat of whatever LSP you are currently using.
