chrys7 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I have been hear/reading alot of hype concerning Nanoskin towels. Was wondering if Adams had anythingin the works similar to these cause lets face it claying is not fun. I have seen a few vids and they seem to take the effort out of claying yet produce the same results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrys7 Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 Yep saw that VID and many more, talked to a Detailer who swears by them he no longer clays, He gets about 100 cars out of one towel and about 60 out of the Autoscrub pad basically Nanotowel for a DA.

3PedalMINI Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 there is actually a detailer thats on here and swares by nanoskin instead of claying. I think his name is dave and is from Innovative Detailing. hes got quite abit of pictures on his facebook of him using it. Ive looked it up and watched company videos and have seen daves pictures and it seems to work out really nice. I would be curious too to know if adams is coming out with something like this, sure seems like a time saver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the1inblue Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I'm too interested in this as well. Looks like it would work Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc2hill Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I am not familar with these, but I am not hearing great things about the reusable "clay" blocks. They are being blamed for marring some clearcoats. That is not too much of an issue if you are doing a full correction, but not so good if you are only doing a clay and wax.

chrys7 Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 Funny thats who i have been speaking to the guy from innov detailing. Lol Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XQIZT Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Interesting... Here are my questions: Where are the contaminants going? Somehow the towel is pulling them from the paint surface, but with a towel, you can't "fold in" the contaminants, like you can with clay. And other that the pressure used, how is this any easier than claying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobfred44 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I don't understand the advantage? Why a sealant on the towel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick10ssrs Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 He was rubbing paint with a ring on his finger and i agree. Where are the contaminants going if you can do about 100 cars with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueGenCoupe Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Meh, I'll stick to my clay bar. Less towels to wash at the end of the day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3PedalMINI Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Meh, I'll stick to my clay bar. Less towels to wash at the end of the day! no its not a towel, its something you put on your PC, the towels are just to remove the special lubricant from what i read. I could be wrong and mis interpreted what the OP was talking about. Here is what i was talking about. AUTOSCRUB 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07RS4 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I think there's promise here.... It's hard to question the current results, he's posted a bunch on here and his results are amazing. I would question though on how many cars can be done with one towel. Very intersting...remember every product has to start somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUTOSCRUB 6 There seem to be both...the video in post 2 is just a towel type thing that gets rubbed on the surface with no pressure...other than that...some as claying... I still wanna know where the contaminants go...and with the PC type attachment, I dunno about that either...I like to feel/hear the clay working on the surface.

chrys7 Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 Well from what i saw in the vid contaminants are on the towel coated in this nanoskin material if you see the vid you will see it in action.

XQIZT Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Well from what i saw in the vid contaminants are on the towel coated in this nanoskin material if you see the vid you will see it in action. That was my understanding from watching it initially last night, and my question and concern still remains. I'm seeing it this way...you constantly turn and "flap" a wax buffing towel so that the towel surface isn't coated with removed wax, right? So how do you prevent the newly lifted contaminants from being dragged all over the surface, since you can't fold it in like clay? Not criticizing, just wondering.

the1inblue Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Looks like you just flip the towel as you would the clay. Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrys7 Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 In any event Id still like to see if Adams has something like this on their radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 We've tested this and similar 'clay alternative' products with less than stellar results. Nothing in the works as of now simply due to the fact that if we were to replace the clay in our line with something else it would have to perform as well or better than traditional clay... at this point nothing we have tested does. Since this isn't a product we support or sell though I'm gonna close this thread now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
