0 JBlack151 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I completely agree with you. Besides the QS I absolutely love when it's time to apply BG especially with the new red 4th gen pad. Once that's done I have my freshly refrigerated APW ready for the final touch. And great job on your Vette. I love seeing pics of red vehicles after this process. Congrats on receiving your award too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 JBlack151 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Why refrigerated? Going to be doing this combo this weekend I hope. It's best to keep the APW in the fridge and take it out hours before use. See the thread below about it. There is a down side to this. When you are hungry you open the fridge and notice the APW sitting on the shelf. Then you become eager to detail your ride. Plus my wife confuses the container with the hummus http://www.adamsforums.com/forums/general-detailing-discussion-questions/15978.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 TR6speed Posted May 17, 2012 Author Share Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) Looks fantastic! Do you happen to have a secret application sequence you would care to share?! Just glaze then wax? Thanks! No nothing secret about it. In between the full details is just that apply the glaze remove it and then the Americana. I do use the new red hex pad to apply the glaze and I use an old Adam trick for removal, and that is to use a plush micro fiber towel place the pad of the PC on the towel wrapping the excess towel around the handle and let the PC do the work. Only on the glaze I do the Americana by hand. Edited May 17, 2012 by TR6speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I caught Adam's trick in one of the videos... Looks like the way to go! Your work looks amazing and I'm hoping for the same results on black. I've been curious on how everyone is getting there... Especially ones that are dripping! Thanks for the info! AJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
