ScottyBoy Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Can we still order the "self cleaning" caps that are currently on the bottles? I actually prefer those for some products. Or will they end up being phased out? If they will be phased out, I will have to order some myself before they are all gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 The plan is now to phase them out. Like I mentioned in my reply to WIll earlier... don't throw your current ones out and you shouldn't have a problem. Just clean them when the bottle is retired and reuse them.

Ricky Bobby Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 The pump is great even for the liquid products like Tire Shine and Rinseless that you may not want to squeeze the bottle to deform it or the label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyBlackHoe Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I agree with Sam...such a simple idea that now after seeing it seems like how could i have lived without it. LTDSC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADL Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I would be interested in grabbing a couple of these pump tops to retrofit some product I already have. The VRT I have is still in an older 36 once bottle because I bought it back when the big bottle products were on clearance. Will these new pump tops work with the 36 ounce bottles?

Team Adam's Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 When are they going to be listed for sale on the site? We'll work on getting them up soon. The primary push right now is to make sure everyone who orders gets their stuff in time for Xmas.

The dip tube won't be long enough to reach the bottom, but the pump itself will fit as it uses the same 28/410 threaded neck as our 16oz and 36oz bottles.

Beemer Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Maybe it's just me but I really think you guys should roll these out with a SNL-style video showing Adam and the Doc in grey sweats stuffed with "muscles" saying (in an Eastern-European accent): "We are here to PUMP YOU UP!" On second thought - maybe I should just keep that one to myself. Never mind. PT3, TheWolf, ScottyBoy and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluedogGMC Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Are the other caps going to go into the clearance area?Seems like a great idea but for the Buttery I think I might still like the pop up type. But for the other products this seems like it's a perfect fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cammyfive Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I ordered a pack of 3 in my most recent order and did a little science experiment for everyone: 5 full pumps = 1 oz, 10 pumps = 2 oz, 15 pumps = 3 oz, etc...... as measured by a cocktail drink measuring tool. FWIW, the experiment was used measuring Rinseless Wash and the other 2 pumps are on my 16oz bottle of Car Shampoo and another brand 'Strip Wash'. I also trimmed the straw part of each at the end by approximately 1/4 of an inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z06Seal Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Just curious why I didn't get any of these except on my paint correction polish? I ordered VRT, Buttery wax, Liquid Paint Seal, Paint finishing polish and glaze. all of them had the squeeze tip. I ordered everything about a month ago.

Team Adam's Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 Products are being converted as they run out of existing inventory with the squeeze top... we produce pallets of finished product at a time, and rather than opening each bottle and swapping for pumps we ship the existing completed bottles and they'll get the pump on their next run.

TheWolf Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I really like the new pump on the SVRT and LC. I have yet to try it on any polishes, but expect it to work well. And, at only $1.99 for a pack of 3 pumps, it is cheap to add them to your existing product bottles. http://adamspolishes.com/shop/accessories/empty-bottles-sprayers/adam-s-premium-dispenser-pump.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvas51 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I have used the pumps on the Super VRT and the Liquid Paint sealant and they worked great. Just got them last week so time will tell if they dryout and clog up. They are really nice and flat on top so they are easy to use with one hand and kick out just about what you would want on a standard applicator for the VRT.

Ricky Bobby Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I also appreciate the pump tops for not having to squeeze the bottles terribly much, over time the labels do get "crinkled" and then our OCD drives us nuts and makes us buy a new bottle LOL My 3 pack is going on Leather Conditioner, SVRT, and Car Shampoo. I still refill the 16 oz from the gallon because its easier if I have to take the Car Shampoo on the road with me Goatman06 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvsBest Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 You should now say how many full pumps you need to put on your polish pad. That way it would be very easy for the newcomers to not use too much polish. Let's face it we've all used too much polish when we started Rick72 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's face it we've all used too much polish when we started Usually 3 pumps for car shampoo,1 or 2 for leather conditioner, 3 to 4 on hex pad for each tire depending on what type of shine you want.

378 Pete Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I'm guessing they are Adams Red! But a couple of different colors would make different items easy to identify at a glance. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattieDSC Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I found that 7 pumps is about an ounce. Which was confirmed when I read the post from the Shine Doc that the pump outputs around 0.15 ounces per pump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Bobby Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 ^This. 10 pumps is 1.5 oz Very nice when you don't want to waste product MattieDSC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
