Team Adam's Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 We'll be moving away from a universal plate for 4" pads and going to separate PC and Drill Plates. The main reason for the change was customer input. Some people would experience issues with the adapter unthreading if it was not tightened enough prior to starting use. An easy mistake to make, especially when swapping back and forth between tools. Also, the act of changing plates could get tedious over the course of a detail if you needed to swap between drill and PC use multiple times in one job. The separate plates will allow you to have 1 plate at the ready full time in your drill while the PC plate can be left connected to your polisher for tight work. These will be available for purchase soon, stay tuned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the1inblue Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Nice! but I got two of the old ones just for this reason. Good for others who just have one. Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjhpadi Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Would it help to keep the old style if you use telfon tape or on of the light duty thread lockers on the threads, that way you would still be able to get the adapter off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 I've never needed any thread lockers to keep mine together, but I always made sure to tighten them down well before use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris@Adams Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I've never needed any thread lockers to keep mine together, but I always made sure to tighten them down well before use. Those look like a nice addition to the Adam's line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganSRT8 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 nice addition but like others Ive never had a problem, and I use the focus pads A TON. Good fix though since people recommended it, backing plates run away from me sometimes so wouldnt be bad to have a few extra around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveVY Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I had the problem with the backing plate come off PC... but once I read that it shouldn't be used over speed 4 never had another problem. It will be nice to have dedicated backing plates! One less potential failure!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

technologic Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 looking forward to the new product, been needing a 4" plate for a little bit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted June 21, 2012 Author Share Posted June 21, 2012 Alright guys... some of you who have ordered recently may have gotten a little surprise as we shipped a couple of random orders with the new 4" plates. The rest of you they go live today. A few new pad kits accompany them as well, with a few more coming in the next few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Detailing, LLC Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 And this is just another of numerous reasons why I am hooked on Adam's. They listen to the end users & strive for perfection.
